IMPROVING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE MECHANICAL ENGINEERING CURRICULUM BY COMBINING GLOBAL, LOCAL AND FUTURE-ORIENTED PERSPECTIVES

open access: yesآموزش مهندسی ایران
The mechanical engineering curriculum, at both the undergraduate and postgraduate levels, has been revised twice in the last decade. Despite these updates, its core foundation remains based on older models.

Mixed‐class J‐domain protein scaffolds promote expanded aggregate handling and multivalent Hsp70 engagement during functional disaggregase assembly

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein aggregates threaten proteostasis and cell health. In human cells, Hsp70–J‐domain protein‐based disaggregases remove aggregates, but how they assemble remains unclear. Our biochemical findings show that DNAJA2‐ and DNAJB1‐containing disaggregase scaffolds enhance luciferase aggregate targeting, and that Hsp70 recruitment by both J‐domain ...

Mechanical characterization of a melt-drawn Poly(L-lactide-co-ε-caprolactone) (PLC) for tissue engineering application [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This report outlines the student’s project to investigate the mechanical properties of melt-drawn POLY(L-lactide-co--caprolactone) (PLC) of 90-10 composition used in tissue engineering. It is a type of semicrystalline co-polymer.

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Developing inquiry-based laboratory exercises for a mechanical engineering curriculum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper describes the development of two inquiry-based experiments in a mechanical engineering curriculum at a land grant research-intensive university, aimed at providing students with the opportunity to design and perform experiments. One experiment

Decoding the dynamic extracellular matrix in cancer—3D models and bioscaffolds rewire the rules of tumor progression

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cancer progression is regulated by the dynamic matrix code of the tumor microenvironment, which influences cellular behavior and disease development. Importantly, matrix remodeling in three‐dimensional cancer models more accurately reflects in vivo conditions compared to conventional two‐dimensional systems.

The Pressure Losses in 90° Bends of Rectangular Cross-section [PDF]

open access: yes, 1966
An experimental study of turbulent flow of air around a 90º bend is reported in this thesis. Four 90º bends of aspect ratio 1, 3, 5 & 10 and radius ratio 1.0 have been tested in the Reynolds number range of 1 × 10⁵ to 5 × 10⁵. The loss in total pressure

Magnetic Substrates for Tissue Engineering—A Review

open access: yesMagnetochemistry
Tissue engineering is based on combining cells with suitable scaffolds and growth factors. Recently, bone tissue engineering has been especially investigated deeply due to a large number of bone-related diseases.

Identification of a Shiga toxin A‐derived peptide internalized into Gb3 receptor‐bearing cells via interaction with the Shiga toxin B subunit

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The process of internalization of the Shiga toxin A subunit via formation of a complex with the Shiga toxin B subunit, which specifically binds to the Gb3 receptor. The peptide is designed to act as a carrier of drugs into cancer cells. Here, we explored the potential of peptides derived from the catalytic A subunit of Shiga toxin (STxA) to be drug ...
