Fundamental studies of passivity and passivity breakdown [PDF]
We developed and experimentally tested physical models for growth and breakdown of passive films on metal surfaces. These models are ``point defect models,`` in which the growth and breakdown are described in terms of movement of anion and cation vacancies.

COMP–PMEPA1 axis promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in breast cancer cells
This study reveals that cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in breast cancer. We identify PMEPA1 (protein TMEPAI) as a novel COMP‐binding partner that mediates EMT via binding to the TSP domains of COMP, establishing the COMP–PMEPA1 axis as a key EMT driver in breast cancer.

The Rise and Fall of Passive Disk Galaxies: Morphological Evolution Along the Red Sequence Revealed by COSMOS [PDF]
The increasing abundance of passive "red-sequence" galaxies since z=1-2 is mirrored by a coincident rise in the number of galaxies with spheroidal morphologies.

Dormant cancer cells can hide in distant organs for years, evading treatment and the immune system. This review highlights how signals from the surrounding tissue and immune environment keep these cells inactive or trigger their reawakening. Understanding these mechanisms may help develop therapies to eliminate or control dormant cells and prevent ...

Efficiency Comparison of Thermal Insulation Schemes in the Hinged Ventilated Facades Systems
The article deals with the problems associated with the quality of thermal insulation mounting in hinged ventilated facades, and first of all associated with the gaps between thermal insulation panels. According to STO NOSTROY 2.14.67-2012 "Hinged facade

Leaf area index (LAI) is an important parameter in plant ecophysiology; it can be used to quantify foliage directly and as a measure of the photosynthetic active area and, thus, the area subject to transpiration in vegetation.

Automatic prosodic clustering of humpback whales song
6pWe automatically segmented a humpback whale song using the Roger Payne's principle of sound unit and we patterned and automatically classified intonations of sound units thanks to an unsupervised algorithm to describe recurrent patterns.

We discuss passivity beyond continuous-time systems by highlighting several inconsistencies of the definition currently in use, for instance when applied to discrete-time systems, and by motivating the need for a new and more consistent notion. Hence, we propose a new definition, ϱ-passivity, that addresses the raised issues and that, as a result, is ...

Single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assays for high‐throughput DNA–protein interaction studies
We describe an optimised single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assay that visualises DNA–protein interactions in real time. Linear DNA fragments are tethered to a surface and stretched by buffer flow for fluorescence imaging. Using λ and φX174 DNA, this protocol enhances reproducibility and accessibility, providing a versatile approach for studying diverse ...
