Neutrophil deficiency increases T cell numbers at the site of tissue injury in mice

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In wild‐type mice, injury or acute inflammation induces neutrophil influx followed by macrophage accumulation. Mcl1ΔMyelo (neutrophil‐deficient) mice lack neutrophils, and in response to muscle injury show fewer macrophages and exhibit strikingly elevated T‐cell numbers, primarily non‐conventional “double‐negative” (DN) αβ and γδ T cells.

Development of visible light‐sensitive human neuropsin (OPN5) via single amino acid substitution

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The present study determines a key amino acid residue, Lys91, for defining UV sensitivity of human OPN5. Heterologous action spectroscopy of the wild type and K91 mutants of OPN5 in HEK293T cells reveals that substitution of Lys91 with neutral (alanine) or acidic amino acids (glutamic or aspartic acids) causes substantial shifts in spectral sensitivity

Exploring the Charge Localization and Band Gap Opening of Borophene: A First-Principles Study

, 2017
Recently synthesized two-dimensional (2D) boron, borophene, exhibits a novel metallic behavior rooted in the s-p orbital hybridization, distinctively different from other 2D materials such as sulfides/selenides and semi-metallic graphene.

Exploring lipid diversity and minimalism to define membrane requirements for synthetic cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Designing the lipid membrane of synthetic cells is a complex task, in which its various roles (among them solute transport, membrane protein support, and self‐replication) should all be integrated. In this review, we report the latest top‐down and bottom‐up advances and discuss compatibility and complexity issues of current engineering approaches ...

Evaluation of lime plaster on masonry walls in historical buildings prior to renovation

Budownictwo i Architektura
This study analysed a quantitative assessment of the adhesion of lime plasters to the substrate in a historic neo-Gothic building. The diagnostics of the plasters were conducted to preserve their large surface area due to their historical value. The use

C‐mannosylation promotes ADAMTS1 activation and secretion in human testicular germ cell tumor NEC8 cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
C‐mannosylation is a unique form of protein glycosylation. In this study, we demonstrated that ADAMTS1 is C‐mannosylated at Trp562 and Trp565 in human testicular germ cell tumor NEC8 cells. We found that C‐mannosylation of ADAMTS1 is essential for its secretion, processing, enzymatic activity, and ability to promote vasculogenic mimicry. These findings

Curriculum Construction and Reform for "Mechanics of Materials" Based on the Training of Outstanding Engineers

Lifelong Education, 2020
The curriculum of mechanics of materials is a professional course for engineering students, which is closely related to engineering practice. Under the background of the current teaching reform, the traditional curriculum teaching mainly focuses on theoretical teaching and ignores engineering practice, which leads to the influence of students ...
