Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Taxanes are widely used chemotherapeutics whose effects on cellular mechanics remain poorly understood. We show that paclitaxel induces rapid cellular contraction by promoting GEF‐H1 dissociation from microtubules and non‐muscle myosin II activation through RhoA/ROCK.

Azobenzenes and dithiocarbamates in molecular film devices [PDF]
, 2012 The “top-down” approach to improve the performance of small electronic devices is becoming more and more challenging due to economic and engineering restrictions. Thus, researchers seek for alternatives towards efficient, smaller and faster devices. The “

Mechanoresponse of curved epithelial monolayers lining bowl-shaped 3D microwells [PDF]
peer reviewedThe optimal functioning of many organs relies on the curved architecture of their epithelial tissues [1]. However, the mechanoresponse of epithelia to changes in curvature remains misunderstood.

Hydrostatic pressure activates HIF‐1α via β‐catenin to promote stemness in breast cancer cells
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.To mimic the elevated intestinal fluid pressure in breast cancers, we loaded human breast cancer cells (MCF‐7, MDA‐MB‐453, and BT‐474) to 50 mmHg hydrostatic pressure. Hydrostatic pressure exposure upregulated HIF‐1α and induced stemness in MCF‐7 and BT‐474 cells.

Monolayers of linear saturated succinate polyesters at air-liquid interfaces
, 1961 The surface pressure-area isotherms at 25C are reported for some linear saturated polyesters spread as monolayers at air-aqueous interfaces. Monolayers of poly(ethylene succinate), poly(pentamethylene succinate), and poly(neopentyl succinate) were ...

Gold Nanoparticles Monolayer Based Field‐Effect Molecular Sensors
Advanced Electronic MaterialsThe rapid and efficient sensing mechanism of molecules and bimolecular species is crucial for healthcare, biomedical, and safety applications. Such sensors need to be robust and able to measure low concentrations of molecular species.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.NMR metabolomics revealed concentration‐dependent metabolic perturbations in HepG2 cells exposed to H2O2. Rifampicin pretreatment enhanced metabolic competence, attenuated toxin‐induced alterations and produced metabolite profiles more consistent with human liver physiology, supporting the use of CYP450‐induced HepG2 models for improved in vitro ...
