The emerging role of zinc transporters in cellular homeostasis and cancer [PDF]

, 2017
Zinc is an essential micronutrient that plays a role in the structural or enzymatic functions of many cellular proteins. Cellular zinc homeostasis involves the opposing action of two families of metal transporters: the ZnT (SLC30) family that functions ...

Mechanism of Metallothionein Gene Activation Mediated by Heavy-metal Dependent Transcription Factor MTF-1

YAKUGAKU ZASSHI, 2007
Transcriptional activation of metallothionein (MT) genes by heavy metals is a valuable system for understanding the functions of MT as well as the cellular response against heavy metals. Although it is now known that heavy metal signals culminating in MT induction converge upon a transcription factor MTF-1, the mechanism underlying the MTF-1 response ...

Intermolecular Aggregation‐Induced Delayed Fluorescence Scintillators for Ultrahigh‐Resolution X‐Ray Imaging

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An intermolecular AIDF strategy enables an organic X‐ray scintillator (OXST) that resists concentration quenching and efficiently utilizes singlet and triplet excitons. The AIDF emitter, embedded in a polysulfone matrix, yields bright, flexible, and transparent scintillation screens with ultralow detection limits and high spatial resolution, offering a

Paired and Stripe States in the Quantum Hall System

, 2000
We study a paired state at the half-filled Landau level using a mean field theory on the von Neumann lattice. We obtain a microscopic model which shows a continuous transition from the compressible stripe state to the paired state.

The Zinc-Sensing Mechanism of Mouse MTF-1 Involves Linker Peptides between the Zinc Fingers [PDF]

Molecular and Cellular Biology, 2006
Mouse metal response element-binding transcription factor-1 (MTF-1) regulates the transcription of genes in response to a variety of stimuli, including exposure to zinc or cadmium, hypoxia, and oxidative stress. Each of these stresses may increase labile cellular zinc, leading to nuclear translocation, DNA binding, and transcriptional activation of ...

Multi‐Channel Electrically Tunable Varifocal Metalens With Compact Multilayer Polarization‐Dependent Metasurfaces and Liquid Crystals

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A compact eight‐channel electrically tunable varifocal metalens with three single‐layer polarization‐multiplexed bi‐focal metalens and three LC cells. The total thickness of the device is ∼6 mm, while the focal lengths can be switched among eight values (3.6, 4.2, 4.5, 4.9, 6.2, 6.9, 8.4, and 9.6 mm). ABSTRACT As an essential module of optical systems,
