Style Brush: Guided Style Transfer for 3D Objects

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We introduce Style Brush, a guided 3D style‐transfer method for textured meshes that provides precise creative control. It supports the use of multiple style images, smooth transitions and intuitive guidance, producing visually appealing textures that follow user intent as we demonstrate in our user study and results. Abstract We introduce Style Brush,

Behind Closed Doors: How Boardroom Silence and Implicit Theories Shape Corporate Governance

Corporate Governance: An International Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research Question/Issue Why do directors, despite formal authority and oversight responsibilities, remain silent in the boardroom, and how does such silence shape governance outcomes? Research Findings/Insights Silence in boards is not a passive absence but a routinized governance practice.

Cross-Chain Protocol Lightning-C for Internet of Vehicles Environment

IEEE Access
Blockchain is gaining popularity as a technology that provides secure data sharing and management for the Internet of vehicles (IoV). The current research on cross-chaining between blockchains is still inefficient, and how to perform efficient cross ...

Leadership and Accountability in Faith‐Based Institutions: Evidence From UK Mosques

Financial Accountability &Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates accountability in religious institutions on the basis of evidence obtained from interviews with relevant parties in UK mosques. We mobilize prior theoretical contention regarding servant leadership and constraints on personal accountability to expose perceptions of seriously deficient discharge outcomes.

Human IDO2 exhibits unique binding affinities distinct to those of human IDO1

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Although indoleamine 2,3‐dioxygenase 2 (IDO2) is highly homologous to IDO1, it displays markedly lower catalytic activity. We found that IDO2 binds L‐tryptophan (L‐Trp) in a flipped orientation stabilized by the IDO2‐specific residue His143. Replacement of His143 with the IDO1‐equivalent tyrosine restored an IDO1‐like binding mode and increased ...

Unraveling in vitro phase separation and aggregation properties of the structured region of FMRP and the impact of Fragile X syndrome‐linked mutations

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Fragile X messenger ribonucleoprotein 1 (FMRP) is a multidomain RNA‐binding protein associated with Fragile X Syndrome (FXS). We found that its N‐terminal structured region has an intrinsic propensity to undergo liquid–liquid phase separation and fibril formation. FXS‐associated mutations perturb protein stability and aggregation propensity, suggesting

Unraveling the active site cover of coproheme decarboxylase from Listeria monocytogenes

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
During heme biosynthesis in Gram‐positive bacteria, coproheme decarboxylase (ChdC) catalyzes the conversion of four‐propionate substrate coproheme to the two propionate product heme b. Its active site is universally covered by a flexible linking loop. This study identifies an important histidine residue, which stabilizes the loop in a ChdC homolog.

Hypoxia‐preconditioned adipose‐derived mesenchymal stem cells‐derived exosomes transferring H19 obstruct neutrophil extracellular traps formation via HOXA5‐mediated inactivation of TLR4/NF‐κB/NLRP3 inflammatory signaling

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
In this study, we uncovered that Hypo‐Exo transferring H19 promoted diabetic wound healing by repressing NETs formation via the miR‐130a/b‐3p/HOXA5 pathway to inactivate the TLR4/NF‐κB/NLRP3 inflammatory signaling. ABSTRACT Background Hypoxia‐stimulated adipose‐derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs)‐derived exosomes (Hypo‐Exo) have a positive impact on

Quality Regulation and Unexpected Gaming: Evidence From Mandating Flight Delay Compensation

Journal of Economics &Management Strategy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Policies that target a single aspect of agents' motivation may lead to their diminished efforts in other areas. This paper examines the effect of the European Union's flight delay compensation policy on flight on‐time performance by exploiting a unique policy variation in a difference‐in‐differences framework.
