Snapshot-Free, Transparent, and Robust Memory Reclamation for Lock-Free Data Structures [PDF]
We present a family of safe memory reclamation schemes, Hyaline, which are fast, scalable, and transparent to the underlying lock-free data structures. Hyaline is based on reference counting - considered impractical for memory reclamation in the past due to high overheads. Hyaline uses reference counters only during reclamation, but not while accessing

Successful use of acitretin in an indian child with lipoid proteinosis
Introduction: Lipoid proteinosis is a rare autosomal recessive disease, characterized by deposition of Periodic Acid‒Schiff-positive hyaline material in the skin, mucous membrane of the upper aerodigestive tract, and different organs of the body ...

A unifying framework for amyloid-mediated membrane damage: The lipid-chaperon hypothesis [PDF]
Over the past thirty years, researchers have highlighted the role played by a class of proteins or polypeptides that forms pathogenic amyloid aggregates in vivo, including i) the amyloid Abeta peptide, which is known to form senile plaques in Alzheimer's disease; ii) alpha-synuclein, responsible for Lewy body formation in Parkinson's disease and iii ...

Phosphatidylserine transport in cell life and death [PDF]
Phosphatidylserine (PS) is a negatively-charged glycerophospholipid found mainly in the plasma membrane (PM) and in the late secretory/endocytic compartments, where it regulates cellular activity and can mediate apoptosis. Export of PS from the endoplasmic reticulum, its site of synthesis, to other compartments, and its transbilayer asymmetry must ...

Risk Factors for the Development of Hyaline Membrane Disease in Preterm Infants
Hyaline membrane disease (HMO) is a respiratory disease commonly found in preterm infants. While this disease occurs as the result of surfactant deficiency which is a function of gestational age, certain maternal and neonatal factors play a role in the ...

Incidence, Predictors and Outcomes of Noninvasive Ventilation Failure in Very Preterm Infants
Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is now considered the first-line treatment for respiratory distress syndrome in preterm infants. We aimed to evaluate the rates of non-invasive ventilation failure rate in very preterm infants, as well as to identify its ...

Wrapping of Microparticles by Floppy Lipid Vesicles [PDF]
Lipid membranes, the barrier defining living cells and many of their sub-compartments, bind to a wide variety of nano- and micro-meter sized objects. In the presence of strong adhesive forces, membranes can strongly deform and wrap the particles, an essential step in crossing the membrane for a variety of health and disease-related processes.

The Human Plasma Membrane Peripherome: Visualization and Analysis of Interactions [PDF]
A major part of membrane function is conducted by proteins, both integral and peripheral. Peripheral membrane proteins temporarily adhere to biological membranes, either to the lipid bilayer or to integral membrane proteins with non-covalent interactions.
