Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve

High discrimination infrared polarimetry via intrinsic anisotropic photogating in black phosphorus meta-polarization detectors

Nature Communications
Filterless miniaturized polarization photodetectors are essential for next-generation ultracompact optical and optoelectronic systems. However, achieving high polarization discrimination and high sensitivity over a broad wavelength range based on a ...

Infrared Quantum Information [PDF]

Physical Review Letters, 2017
We discuss information-theoretic properties of low-energy photons and gravitons in the S-matrix. Given an incoming n-particle momentum eigenstate, we demonstrate that unobserved soft photons decohere nearly all outgoing momentum superpositions of charged particles, while the universality of gravity implies that soft gravitons decohere nearly all ...

Pioglitazone plus (−)‐epigallocatechin gallate: a novel approach to enhance osteogenic performance in aged bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Aged human bmMSCs are seeded in the scaffold. Osteoblastic induction can slightly increase cell's bone‐forming activity to produce bone‐like tissues, shown as the sporadic xylenol orange‐stained spots (the lower left image). Notably, pioglitazone plus EGCG co‐treatment dramatically increases cell's bone‐forming activity and bone‐like tissue production (

How to characterize figures of merit of two-dimensional photodetectors

Nature Communications, 2023
Photodetectors based on two-dimensional (2D) materials have been the focus of intensive research and development over the past decade. However, a gap has long persisted between fundamental research and mature applications.

Enzymatic degradation of biopolymers in amorphous and molten states: mechanisms and applications

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This review explains how polymer morphology and thermal state shape enzymatic degradation pathways, comparing amorphous and molten biopolymer structures. By integrating structure–reactivity principles with insights from thermodynamics and enzyme engineering, it highlights mechanisms that enable efficient polymer breakdown.

Developments for collective Thomson scattering equipment with a sub-THz gyrotron in LHD [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2019
Plan of collective Thomson scattering (CTS) experiment for the Large Helical Device (LHD) in NIFS with a 303 GHz gyrotron is under way. Use of a sub-THz gyrotron expands the CTS-applicable region of plasma parameters.

A Review of Methods for Ship Detection with Electro-Optical Images in Marine Environments

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
The ocean connects all continents and is an important space for human activities. Ship detection with electro-optical images has shown great potential due to the abundant imaging spectrum and, hence, strongly supports human activities in the ocean.
