Hyperactive ice‐binding proteins stabilize cell membranes and improve resistance to dehydration stress in Caenorhabditis elegans

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TisIBP8, a fungal‐derived hyperactive ice‐binding protein, helps Caenorhabditis elegans survive dehydration. It localizes near cell membranes, reduces cell damage, and helps maintain membrane structure during drying. These results suggest that ice‐binding proteins can protect cells from dehydration stress as well as freezing stress.

Design and Control of Fractional-Order Systems Based on Fractal Operators

Fractal and Fractional
In recent years, we have abstracted physical fractal space from biological structures and movements within living organisms, revealing the profound intrinsic connections between fractional order time and fractional-dimensional space, and providing ...

An efficient construction of polar codes based on the general partial order

EURASIP Journal on Wireless Communications and Networking, 2019
Traditionally, the construction of polar codes requires intense computations to sort all bit channels. In previous works, two types of partial orders (POs) of polar codes were proposed to decrease the computations in the construction process.

From energy provision to protein synthesis: Tunnelling nanotubes as mediators of intercellular metabolic cooperation in cancer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

Partial orders for representing uncertainty, causality and decision making: General properties, operations, and algorithms

, 2012
One of the main objectives of science and engineering is to help people select the most beneficial decisions. To make these decisions, we must know people\u27s preferences, we must have the information about different possible consequences of different ...

Long‐Term Follow‐Up of Chemotherapy‐Associated Biological Aging in Women With Early Breast Cancer

Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.
Women threated with adjuvant chemotherapy for early breast cancer have sustained long‐term increase in p16INK4a,, a robust marker of cell senescence, suggesting a chemotherapy‐associated age acceleration. p16INK4a as well as other biomarkers may identify patients at greatest risk for senescence‐related diseases of aging.

Bayesian inference on partial orders from random rank-order data

Ranking problems are prevalent across various fields, yet most existing models focus on reconstructing total orders rather than partial orders. Models parameterised by partial orders make weaker assumptions about the unknown underlying order relations ...

Intelligent Tutoring Systems for Adult Learning in STEM Disciplines

New Directions for Adult and Continuing Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Intelligent tutoring systems (ITS) are reshaping adult learning in STEM by providing adaptive, data‐driven instruction across classrooms, workplaces, and informal environments. In the context of ITS, this article compares generative AI, which creates personalized explanations and practice materials, with explainable AI, which focuses on ...

Push-pull alkenes: structure and p-electron distribution [PDF]

Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2006
Push-pull alkenes are substituted alkenes with one or two electron-donating substituents on one end of C=C double bond and with one or two electron-accepting substituents at the other end.
