Exploiting metabolic adaptations to overcome dabrafenib treatment resistance in melanoma cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We show that dabrafenib‐resistant melanoma cells undergo mitochondrial remodeling, leading to elevated respiration and ROS production balanced by stronger antioxidant defenses. This altered redox state promotes survival despite mitochondrial damage but renders resistant cells highly vulnerable to ROS‐inducing compounds such as PEITC, highlighting redox

Numerical investigation of the mechanical properties of lattice structures inspired from polycrystalline materials

open access: yesAIP Advances
In this work, polycrystalline-like lattice structures that are inspired by the geometry of polycrystalline materials are designed. They are generated by filling periodic lattice structures into a Voronoi diagram.

Mechanical properties of polycrystalline graphene based on a realistic atomistic model

open access: yes, 2012
Graphene can at present be grown at large quantities only by the chemical vapor deposition method, which produces polycrystalline samples. Here, we describe a method for constructing realistic polycrystalline graphene samples for atomistic simulations ...

Local and non-local normalised equivalent strain functionals for cyclic fatigue [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The concept of Cyclic Normalised Equivalent Strain Functionals (CNESnFs) suitable for lowcyclic fatigue is developed in this paper. It reduces any fatigue strength and durability model to a unique form what facilitates the models comparison ...

Plecstatin inhibits hepatocellular carcinoma tumorigenesis and invasion through cytolinker plectin

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The ruthenium‐based metallodrug plecstatin exerts its anticancer effect in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) primarily through selective targeting of plectin. By disrupting plectin‐mediated cytoskeletal organization, plecstatin inhibits anchorage‐dependent growth, cell polarization, and tumor cell dissemination.

Mechanically induced topological transition of spectrin regulates its distribution in the mammalian cell cortex

open access: yesNature Communications
The cell cortex is a dynamic assembly formed by the plasma membrane and underlying cytoskeleton. As the main determinant of cell shape, the cortex ensures its integrity during passive and active deformations by adapting cytoskeleton topologies through ...
