Interaction of Staphylococcus aureus di-iron Repair of Iron Centers protein with the iron-sulfur cluster assembly SUF system. [PDF]

Protein Sci
Abstract Repair of Iron Centers (RIC) proteins are present in several pathogens, including Staphylococcus aureus, contributing to resistance to nitroxidative stress and virulence. In this work, we investigated the molecular mechanisms by which S. aureus RIC facilitates iron mobilization, through structural analyses and functional studies.

Transcript and Lipid Profile Alterations in Astrocyte-Neuron Mitochondrial Transfer Under Lipopolysaccharide Exposure: An In Vitro Study. [PDF]

J Neurochem
The astrocyte‐conditioned medium (ACM) was obtained by incubating astrocytes with LPS (1 μg/mL) for 24 h. After removing cellular debris, the mitochondria‐depleted astrocyte‐conditioned medium (mdACM) was produced by filtering out mitochondria from ACM using a 0.2‐μm filter.

A critical review on antiviral peptides derived from viral glycoproteins and host receptors to decoy herpes simplex virus

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 16, Issue 11, Page 2036-2052, November 2023., 2023
HSV glycoproteins gC, gB, gD, gH and host cell receptors such as HSPG, nectin and HVEM can be used as targets to develop antiviral agents. By using proteins or peptides derived from these glycoproteins and receptors, it is possible to create decoys that can inhibit HSV attachment, entry, or fusion.

Hydrovoltaic energy from water droplets: Device configurations, mechanisms, and applications

Droplet, Volume 2, Issue 4, October 2023., 2023
Hydrovoltaic technology can harvest electricity from water by its direct interaction with functional materials. Droplet‐based hydrovoltaic devices hold great promise for the development of innovative ways to harvest mechanical energy from intermittent water sources in the form of raindrops, rather than relying on continuous sources such as rivers ...

Ferroptosis‐modulating small molecules for targeting drug‐resistant cancer: Challenges and opportunities in manipulating redox signaling

Medicinal Research Reviews, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 614-682, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Ferroptosis is an iron‐dependent cell death program that is characterized by excessive lipid peroxidation. Triggering ferroptosis has been proposed as a promising strategy to fight cancer and overcome drug resistance in antitumor therapy. Understanding the molecular interactions and structural features of ferroptosis‐inducing compounds might ...

Distributed finite‐time formation control of multiple Euler–Lagrange systems under directed graphs

IET Control Theory &Applications, Volume 16, Issue 13, Page 1299-1311, September 2022., 2022
Abstract This paper investigates the finite‐time formation problem of multiple Euler–Lagrange systems subject to model uncertainties and external disturbances under directed graphs. An adaptive distributed control approach is developed by integrating dynamic gain control and adaptive control based on the consensus theory and the finite‐time stability ...

Orchestrating ribosomal RNA folding during ribosome assembly

BioEssays, Volume 44, Issue 8, August 2022., 2022
During eukaryotic ribosome biogenesis, a plethora of transiently interacting assembly factors guide the hierarchical folding and processing of nascent single‐stranded ribosomal RNA into a translation competent three‐dimensional structure. Here we bring into focus the poorly understood process of establishing correct RNA tertiary contacts during ...

Shaking table tests of a resilient bridge system with precast reinforced concrete columns equipped with springs

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 213-239, January 2022., 2022
Abstract This paper presents the shake table test results of a novel system for the design of precast reinforced concrete bridges. The specimen comprises a slab and four precast columns. The connections are dry and the columns are connected to the slab by an ungrouted tendon.

Application Value of Machine Learning Method in Measuring Gray Matter Volume of AIDS Patients

Disease Markers, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Background. To investigate the role of gray matter (GM) volume in the identification of HIV‐positive patients with HIV‐associated neurocognitive impairment (HAND) using a machine learning approach from normal healthy controls. Methods. Twenty‐seven HIV‐infected patients and 14 healthy controls were enrolled in our study.

The effect of double taxation treaties and territorial tax systems on foreign direct investment: evidence for Spain

Economics: Journal Articles, 2019
The paper evaluates the effect of Double Taxation Treaties (DTTs) on Spain’s inward and outward Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) for the period 1993–2013. Estimates produce positive and statistically significant coefficients.
