Multiscale Imaging Reveals the Hierarchical Organization of Fibrillin Microfibrils

open access: yes, 2018
Fibrillin microfibrils are evolutionarily ancient, structurally complex extracellular polymers found in mammalian elastic tissues where they endow elastic properties, sequester growth factors and mediate cell signalling; thus, knowledge of their ...

Sustainable Isotropic Meta‐Wood‐Materials by Topological Reconstruction of Plant Fibers

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Materials, EarlyView.
Meta‐wood, a novel dense and hard sustainable material, is reconstructed by pure plant fibers without adhesive. It has a 3D network with fibers mechanically interlocked together. This unique structure gives it unique properties that are very different from traditional wood and paper.

A Structurally Specialized Uniform Wall Layer is Essential for Constructing Wall Ingrowth Papillae in Transfer Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Transfer cells are characterized by wall labyrinths with either a flange or reticulate architecture. A literature survey established that reticulate wall ingrowth papillae ubiquitously arise from a modified component of their wall labyrinth, termed the ...

Cancer Risk in Marfan Syndrome: A Swedish Population‐Based Cohort Study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
The cancer risk in Marfan syndrome, an autosomal dominant connective tissue disorder, largely remains to be explored. In this population‐based matched cohort study of 1544 Swedish patients, the overall cancer risk in adults with Marfan syndrome showed no significant increase, except for the risk of endocrine tumours with a nearly threefold increase ...

Characterization of Cellulose Synthesis in Plant Cells

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2016
Cellulose is the most significant structural component of plant cell wall. Cellulose, polysaccharide containing repeated unbranched β (1-4) D-glucose units, is synthesized at the plasma membrane by the cellulose synthase complex (CSC) from bacteria to ...

Deciphering the soybean root rot pathogen Phytophthora sojae: Signaling pathways, transcriptional regulation, and effector biology

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
This review highlights how Phytophthora sojae utilizes unconventional lineage‐specific signaling networks, including unique G protein‐coupled receptor fusions, expanded kinases, and rapidly evolving effectors, to infect soybeans. Understanding these divergent molecular paradigms reveals critical vulnerabilities in this destructive pathogen, offering ...

Canola Fiber as Reinforcement for Composites: Effect of Fiber Extraction and Processing Method on Fiber Properties, Nonwoven Manufacturing, and Composite Properties

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Comparison of canola fiber reinforced composites manufactured using water‐retted, field‐retted, and enzyme‐treated fibers. ABSTRACT Canola fibers obtained from discarded stalks through various processing methods, including water‐retting and field‐retting followed by mechanical decortication and enzymatic degradation, were utilized as discontinuous ...

Cellulose microfibril-water interaction as characterized by isothermal thermogravimetric analysis and scanning electron microscopy [PDF]

open access: yesBioResources, 2012
Microfibrillated celluloses, liberated from macroscopic lignocellulosic fibers by mechanical means, are sub-fiber elements with lengths in the micron scale and diameters ranging from 10 to a few hundred nanometers. These materials have shown strong water

Hydrogen bonds and twist in cellulose microfibrils

open access: yes, 2017
There is increasing experimental and computational evidence that cellulose microfibrils can exist in a stable twisted form. In this study, atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are performed to investigate the importance of intrachain hydrogen ...
