Deformation of Surface Nanobubbles Induced by Substrate Hydrophobicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Recent experimental measurements have shown that there exists a population of nanobubbles with different curvature radii, whereas both computer simulations and theoretical analysis indicated that the curvature radii of different nanobubbles should be the

A brief overview of the causes, impacts and amelioration of soil water repellency - a review

open access: yesSoil and Water Research, 2008
This article describes the phenomenon of soil water repellency, starting from the fundamental principals of water transport and storage in soil. Soil water repellency is a reduction in the rate of wetting and retention of water in soil caused by the ...

PAK1 activation drives divergent resistance mechanisms to aromatase inhibition and tamoxifen in a luminal: A breast cancer model

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Breast cancer remains a major cause of cancer death in women, frequently developing endocrine therapy resistance. This study demonstrates that upregulated p21‐activated kinase 1 (PAK1) activity drives resistance to tamoxifen and long‐term estrogen deprivation in ER+ breast cancer models.

Arginine methylation as a regulatory ratchet in cancer: From substrate selection to malignant‐state stabilization

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Arginine methylation can be viewed as a persistence‐prone post‐translational modification regulated by a network of PRMTs. Competitive and compensatory interactions among PRMTs can redistribute methylation across substrate pools shaped by sequence, structural, spatial, and environmental layers, reinforcing RNA‐processing, chromatin, and signaling ...

Hydrophobicity-Based Force Field In Enzymes

open access: yes
The biocatalysis process takes place with the participation of enzymes, which, depending on the reaction carried out, require, apart from the appropriate arrangement of catalytic residues, an appropriate external force field.

Surface hydrophobicity of LPS mutants.

open access: yes, 2012
(A) Hydrophobicity assay using hexadecane. Each strain standardized at OD600 = 1.0 in PBS was used for a hexadecane hydrophobicity assay. Absorbance at OD600 in the water phase was quantified before and after a 10-min incubation.

Enhancing Hydrophobicity of Nanocellulose-Based Films by Coating with Natural Wax from Halimium viscosum

open access: yesApplied Sciences
This study aimed to improve the hydrophobicity of cellulose nanofibril (CNF) films using a natural wax coating. For this purpose, firstly, the selection, extraction and characterization of a natural wax and fatty acids were carried out.

The VHL tumor suppressor at the crossroad of protein folding, aggregation, and cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Mutations, environmental stress, and chaperone dysfunction can destabilize pVHL, promoting its conversion from the native folded state into amyloid‐like assemblies. This transition may contribute to protein storage, cell dormancy, survival, and drug resistance.

UiO‐66 metal–organic frameworks in biomedicine: From structural tunability to bioimaging, photodiagnostics, and photodynamic cancer therapy

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
UiO‐66(Zr) metal–organic frameworks are chemically stable, biocompatible, and highly tunable nanomaterials. Their modular structure enables controlled drug delivery, multimodal bioimaging, and light‐activated photodynamic therapy, supporting integrated diagnostic and therapeutic (theranostic) applications in cancer and biomedical research.
