A review of non-exhaust emissions on pavement area: Sources, compositions, evaluation and mitigation

Journal of Traffic and Transportation Engineering (English ed. Online)
Particulate matter (PM) in outdoor air pollution is one of the most critical factors that cause serious health problems and even deaths. One significant source of these particles are non-exhaust emissions, which refer to pollutants that come from sources,

Modelled atmospheric concentration of tyre wear in an urban environment

Atmospheric Environment: X, 2023
Microplastics are emitted to the environment from many sources, and transported via water, soil and air. The airborne component is less well studied and measurements often focus on particles larger than 10 μm, while smaller particles are worse from a ...

IMPDH inhibition enhances cytarabine efficacy in SAMHD1‐expressing leukaemia cells via guanine nucleotide depletion

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cytarabine is a key therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but its efficacy is limited by the dNTPase SAMHD1, which hydrolyses its active metabolite. Screening nucleotide biosynthesis inhibitors revealed that IMPDH inhibitors selectively sensitise SAMHD1‐proficient AML cells to cytarabine.
