Impact of Nanoparticle Stiffness on Endosomal Escape and Signaling Pathways in Cytosolic Delivery

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Nanoparticle (NP) stiffness affects cellular uptake, but its impact on intracellular distribution remains unclear. This study synthesizes silica nanocapsules with varying stiffness, inspired by viral mechanisms, and applies assays to measure cellular uptake and escape efficiency.

Weak antilocalization and electron-electron interaction in coupled multiple-channel transport in a Bi$_2$Se$_3$ thin film

open access: yes, 2015
Electron transport properties of a topological insulator Bi$_2$Se$_3$ thin film are studied in Hall-bar geometry. The film with a thickness of 10 nm is grown by van der Waals epitaxy on fluorophlogopite mica and Hall-bar devices are fabricated from the ...

Retouching with Mica Pigments

open access: yese-conservation Journal, 2013
Mica pigments are defined as a type of interference pigments with high reflective and refractive properties. In the second half of the 20th century, these pigments have become an additional material to the retouching palettes of conservator-restorers, in particular for reconstructing the losses of metallic surfaces. However, their feature to manipulate

Mica pneumoconiosis. [PDF]

open access: yesOccupational and Environmental Medicine, 1983
Two men developed pneumoconiosis after grinding and packing powdered mica. The disease was characterised by progressive dyspnoea, a restrictive impairment of ventilation, a reduced transfer factor, and hypoxaemia. Radiographs showed widespread fine nodular and linear shadows.

Synergistic Combination of Tamoxifen–Tetraphenylethylene Co‐Assembled Micelles and Orlistat‐Induced Lipid Droplet Inhibition to Overcome Tamoxifen Resistance

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Molecule 2, which contains a shorter oligoether chain, binds to tamoxifen via structural similarity forming micelles with a positive surface charge, thereby enhancing cellular uptake. These fluorescent micelles induce lipid droplet (LD) accumulation, exhibit strong fluorescence, and effectively overcome tamoxifen resistance by synergizing with orlistat‐

Using And Disputing Privelege: U.S. Youth and Palestinians Wielding "International Privelege" To End The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict Nonviolently [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
On March 16, 2003, Rachel Corrie, a 23-year-old American college student from Olympia, Washington, was crushed to death by an Israeli military bulldozer while attempting to prevent, with her own body, the Israeli demolition of a Palestinian doctor’s ...

Structure and Phase Transitions of Alkyl Chains on Mica

open access: yes, 2003
We use molecular dynamics as a tool to understand the structure and phase transitions [Osman et. al. J. Phys. Chem. B 2000, 104, 4433; 2002, 106, 653] in alkylammonium micas.

Optical visualization of ultrathin mica flakes on semitransparent gold substrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We show that optical visualization of ultrathin mica flakes on metallic substrates is viable using semitransparent gold as substrates. This enables to easily localize mica flakes and rapidly estimate their thickness directly on gold substrates by ...

MICA-specific nanobodies for diagnosis and immunotherapy of MICA+ tumors

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
MICA and MICB are Class I MHC-related glycoproteins that are upregulated on the surface of cells in response to stress, for instance due to infection or malignant transformation. MICA/B are ligands for NKG2D, an activating receptor on NK cells, CD8+ T cells, and γδ T cells.

Mussel‐Inspired Molecular Strategies for Fabricating Functional Materials With Underwater Adhesion and Self‐Healing Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review systematically examines the nanomechanical mechanisms of mussel‐inspired molecular interactions, primarily investigated by direct force measurement techniques such as surface forces apparatus and atomic force microscopy. The macroscopic adhesive and self‐healing performances of mussel‐inspired functional materials, including coacervates ...
