Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...

Physical therapists and importance of work participation in patients with musculoskeletal disorders: a focus group study

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2017
Background Musculoskeletal disorders are a major health problem resulting in negative effects on wellbeing and substantial costs to society. Work participation is associated with positive benefits for both mental and physical health.

The heterodimeric amino acid transporters (HAT) of the SLC7/SLC3 family: A structure−function relationships and relevance to human pathology

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.

Sub-fractional Brownian motion and its relation to occupation times [PDF]

We study a long-range dependence Gaussian process which we call “sub-fractional Brownian motion” (sub-fBm), because it is intermediate between Brownian motion (Bm) and fractional Brownian motion (fBm) in the sense that it has properties analogous to ...

The prevalence and association of measured and perceived indoor air quality, housing characteristics, and residents’ behavior and health

Frontiers in Environmental Health
BackgroundIn social housing buildings, poor indoor air quality (IAQ) has been shown to be more prevalent, and residents living in social housing areas are often more vulnerable and susceptible to adverse health effects from IAQ.AimTo examine the state ...

Membrane composition and thermodynamic identity as boundaries of life for synthetic cell research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
What makes a cell a cell? The boundary of a living cell is not just a wall. Read as a Markov blanket, the membrane separates internal from external states, generating identity and non‐equilibrium order. Can this identity be rebuilt from scratch in a synthetic cell?

Overview of human occupation: Concepts and principles

Although occupation is the central concept in occupational therapy, there is no universally agreed definition. In fact, there are several different ways that occupation is conceptualized in the occupational therapy and occupational science literature ...

Content and delivery of occupation-centred problem-solving occupational therapy for people with chronic somatic conditions: A process evaluation of ABLE 2.0

Scandinavian Journal of Occupational Therapy
Background People with chronic conditions often experience decreased ability to perform activities of daily living (ADL). ABLE is a structured, client-centred, occupational therapy programme developed to address ADL ability using adaptational strategies.

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.
