Investigation of the Conservatism in Multiple Cracks Coalescence Criteria Using Finite Element-Based Crack Growth Analysis

open access: yesApplied Sciences
The interactions between multiple cracks significantly influence fracture mechanics parameters, necessitating their consideration in crack assessments.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Automated Transverse Crack Mapping System with Optical Sensors and Big Data Analytics

open access: yesSensors, 2020
Transverse cracks on bridge decks provide the path for chloride penetration and are the major reason for deck deterioration. For such reasons, collecting information related to the crack widths and spacing of transverse cracks are important.

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Multiple Gastrointestinal Complications of Crack Cocaine Abuse [PDF]

open access: yesCase Reports in Medicine, 2014
Cocaine and its alkaloid free base “crack-cocaine” have long since been substances of abuse. Drug abuse of cocaine via oral, inhalation, intravenous, and intranasal intake has famously been associated with a number of medical complications. Intestinal ischemia and perforation remain the most common manifestations of cocaine associated gastrointestinal ...

Organizing the interface—Plasma membrane architecture and receptor dynamics in virus‐cell interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Microwave measurement and imaging for multiple corrosion cracks in planar metals

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2020
Metal structures (such as buried pipelines, steel bridges) are subjected to long-term corrosion in the harsh environment, once the anticorrosion layer coated on the metals peeled off, corrosion cracks will occur and result in pipeline leaks, bridge ...

The human gut microbiome across the life course

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

Hybrid Green's functions for multiple cracks: Numerical extension of single crack analytical Green's functions to multiple cracks

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Boundary Elements, 2007
The Green's functions for the line force and dislocation that satisfy the traction free boundary condition on the surfaces of arbitrary multiple straight cracks in the isotropic solids are obtained. We develop the hybrid Green's functions combining the analytical and numerical Green's function methods.
