Random Hydrophilic-Hydrophobic Copolymers
, 1994 We study a single statistical amphiphilic copolymer chain AB in a selective solvent (e.g.water). Two situations are considered. In the annealed case, hydrophilic (A) and hydrophobic (B) monomers are at local chemical equilibrium and both the fraction of ...

Surface tension of electrolytes: Hydrophilic and hydrophobic ions near an interface
, 2008 We calculate the ion distributions around an interface in fluid mixtures of highly polar and less polar fluids (water and oil) for two and three ion species. We take into account the solvation and image interactions between ions and solvent. We show that

Dynamics of capillary spreading along hydrophilic microstripes [PDF]
, 2001 We have studied the capillary spreading of a Newtonian liquid along hydrophilic microstripes that are chemically defined on a hydrophobic substrate. The front of the spreading film advances in time according to a power law x=Bt1/2.

Closed-loop recycling and fabrication of hydrophilic CNT films with high performance
Nanotechnology Reviews, 2022 Carbon nanotube (CNT) film has attracted tremendous attention in functional material research for its unique structure and excellent properties. However, pristine CNT (PCNT) film is hydrophobic, and mechanical strength and conductivity are poor than ...

Stimulation of a glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase by insulin and the sulfonylurea, glimepiride, in rat adipocytes depends on increased glucose transport [PDF]
, 1994 . Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and glycolipidanchored cAMP-binding ectoprotein (Gcel) are modified by glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol (GPI) in rat adipocytes, however, the linkage is potentially unstable. Incubation of the cells with either insulin (0.1-30 nM)

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...
