Blood‐based proteomic profiling reveals context‐dependent changes in BCL2‐associated signaling during taxane therapy in breast cancer patients

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Chemotherapy side effects significantly impact cancer survivors' quality of life. Using protein levels in blood samples from breast cancer patients before and after 12 weeks of taxane treatment, we detected treatment‐dependent changes in calcium signaling and aging pathways associated with cancer recurrence.

Empirical Operational Energy Analysis of Downtown High-Rise vs. Suburban Low-Rise Lifestyles: A Chicago Case Study

open access: yesEnergies, 2016
It is widely accepted that the concentration of people living in high-density city centers offers greater operational energy efficiency and lower greenhouse gas emissions than lower-density expanded suburbs.

Urban wind energy conversion: the potential of ducted turbines

open access: yes, 2008
The prospects for urban wind power are discussed. A roof-mounted ducted wind turbine, which uses pressure differentials created by wind flow around a building, is proposed as an alternative to more conventional approaches.

YIPFα1A expression is regulated by multilayered molecular mechanisms

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
YIPFα1A, a five‐pass Golgi protein, is regulated at multiple layers. (1) Rare‐codon enrichment drives translation‐coupled mRNA decay. (2) A proximal 3′‐UTR element stabilizes mRNA. (3) A distal 3′‐UTR element included by alternate poly(A) site usage represses translation, which can be overridden by the proximal 3′‐UTR element.

The carbon footprint of normal and high-strength concrete used in low-rise and high-rise buildings

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials, 2019
To reduce the mass of CO2 released into atmosphere by the construction industry, the performance strategy can be adopted. It is based on the use of High-Strength Concrete (HSC) in alternative to Normal-Strength Concrete (NSC).

Why advanced buildings don't work?

open access: yes, 2012
The intent of policy is to achieve robust comfortable low energy buildings. However there are obvious policy disconnects and, where there is evidence, it appears that in general advanced buildings do not achieve their intended performance. There are many

Wind Loads on Low-slope Roofs of Low-rise and Mid-rise Buildings with Large Plan Dimensions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The present study examines wind loads on low-slope roofs of low-rise and mid-rise buildings with large plan dimensions (118 m) to investigate the suitability of wind provisions of the North American codes and standards to such buildings.

Wind-induced shear and torsion in low-rise and medium-rise buildings: Provisions of National Building Code of Canada 2015 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This paper discusses the shear and torsion induced in low-rise and medium-rise buildings, according to wind load specifications provided in NBCC 2015. Results from experimental studies, carried out in wind tunnels were compared with corresponding NBCC ...
