The Curious Concept That Almost Nobody Seemed to Care About at First: Virtual Particles in the Post‐War Period**

open access: yesBerichte zur Wissenschaftsgeschichte, Volume 48, Issue 1-2, Page 143-162, August 2025.
Abstract Short‐lived, unobservable, and not subject to the usual rules of conservation of energy and momentum, virtual particles—an integral part of the conceptual framework of quantum field theory (QFT)—exhibit a number of curious characteristics which, in recent decades, have in part fueled important discussions about their ontological status ...

Interface Alterations in Cellulose Synthases Redefine CESA Complex Assembly to Enhance Cellulosic Biomass Production

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 17, Issue 7, July 2025.
We analyze sequence‐structure–function relationships, particularly interface mutations, in cellulose synthase (CESA) complexes (CSCs), which evolved from homomeric to heteromeric forms in seed plants. Heterologous expression of an evolutionarily divergent CESA minimizes interference with endogenous CSCs, promoting homomeric CSC formation and enhanced ...

Anti‐PF4 mediated thrombocytopenia and thrombosis associated with acute cytomegalovirus infection displays both HIT‐like and VITT‐like characteristics

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, Volume 206, Issue 6, Page 1737-1742, June 2025.
Summary Vaccine‐induced immune thrombocytopenia and thrombosis (VITT) is one of several anti‐platelet factor 4 (anti‐PF4)‐associated immune thrombocytopenia and thrombosis (PITT) syndromes. As well as following adenoviral vector vaccines, VITT has recently been described following acute adenovirus infection.

Chemical Structure‐Dependence of the Thermal Transition in Thermoresponsive Ethylene‐Glycol‐Containing Polymers as Characterized by EPR Spectroscopy

open access: yesMacromolecular Chemistry and Physics, Volume 226, Issue 10, May 19, 2025.
We investigated macroscopic (optical transmission) and nanoscopic (EPR spectroscopy) changes during the thermal collapse of ethylene glycol (EG) side chain‐containing LCST polymers. EPR detects transition onset earlier than optical methods. The EG side chain length primarily determines polymer (de)hydration, while end groups also influence collapse ...
