CLEAR - Contact lens technologies of the future.

open access: yesContact lens & anterior eye : the journal of the British Contact Lens Association, 2021
Contact lenses in the future will likely have functions other than correction of refractive error. Lenses designed to control the development of myopia are already commercially available.

α-catenin switches between a slip and an asymmetric catch bond with F-actin to cooperatively regulate cell junction fluidity

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
By using laser tweezers, the authors show that a single α-catenin molecule does not resist force on F-actin. However, clustering of multiple molecules and force applied toward F-actin pointed end engage a molecular switch in α-catenin, which unfolds and ...

Assessing brain state and anesthesia level with two-photon calcium signals

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Brain states, such as wake, sleep, or different depths of anesthesia are usually assessed using electrophysiological techniques, such as the local field potential (LFP) or the electroencephalogram (EEG), which are ideal signals for detecting activity ...

Vesicular Trafficking, a Mechanism Controlled by Cascade Activation of Rab Proteins: Focus on Rab27

open access: yesBiology, 2023
Vesicular trafficking is essential for the cell to internalize useful proteins and soluble substances, for cell signaling or for the degradation of pathogenic elements such as bacteria or viruses.

CLEAR - Evidence-based contact lens practice.

open access: yesContact lens & anterior eye : the journal of the British Contact Lens Association, 2021
Evidence-based contact lens -->practice involves finding, appraising and applying research findings as the basis for patient management decisions. These decisions should be informed by the strength of the research study designs that address the question,

Measuring the geography of opportunity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Quantitative segregation research focuses almost exclusively on the spatial sorting of demographic groups. This research largely ignores the structural characteristics of neighborhoods – such as crime, job accessibility, and school quality – that likely ...

lenstronomy: Multi-purpose gravitational lens modelling software package [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics of the Dark Universe, 2018
We present Lenstronomy, a multi-purpose open-source gravitational lens modeling python package. Lenstronomy is able to reconstruct the lens mass and surface brightness distributions of strong lensing systems using forward modelling.

Some counterexamples for (strong) persistence property and (nearly) normally torsion-freeness

open access: yesExamples and Counterexamples, 2023
In this article, we present some rare counterexamples, which are related to (strong) persistence property and (nearly) normally torsion-freeness of monomial ideals.

Highlighting In Vitro the Role of Brain-like Endothelial Cells on the Maturation and Metabolism of Brain Pericytes by SWATH Proteomics

open access: yesCells, 2023
Within the neurovascular unit, brain pericytes (BPs) are of major importance for the induction and maintenance of the properties of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) carried by the brain microvessel endothelial cells (ECs).

The Blood–Brain Barrier, an Evolving Concept Based on Technological Advances and Cell–Cell Communications

open access: yesCells, 2021
The construction of the blood–brain barrier (BBB), which is a natural barrier for maintaining brain homeostasis, is the result of a meticulous organisation in space and time of cell–cell communication processes between the endothelial cells that carry ...
