Structural and chemical evolution of fluorocarbon coatings on reactor walls and their run-to-run impacts on film deposition in C4F8/Ar/N2 plasma processing

open access: yesApplied Surface Science Advances
Although unintentional contamination of the inner chamber wall during repeated plasma processing can substantially affect semiconductor device performance, the quantitative impact of chamber wall conditions remains underexplored.

Thomson scattering of plasma turbulence on PSI-2

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2017
The turbulent transport in the edge of fusion reactors can be conveniently simulated by linear plasma devices with long duty cycles. At high input power steady state plasma discharges at PSI-2 exhibit intermittent fluctuations similar to the edge of ...

HIV‐1 establishes immediate latency in T cells expressing the viral Nef protein

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Nef is a viral protein often omitted from HIV‐1 reporter viruses. Consequently, its role in viral latency is unclear. We developed three novel dual reporter HIV‐1 derivatives that express Nef and allow for detection of latent and productive infection. Using these reporters, we show that Nef does not affect the establishment of immediate viral latency ...

Dapagliflozin prevents methylglyoxal‐induced retinal cell death in ARPE‐19 cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Diabetic macular oedema is a diabetes complication of the eye, which may lead to permanent blindness. ARPE‐19 are human retinal cells used to study retinal diseases and potential therapeutics. Methylglyoxal is a compound increased in uncontrolled diabetes due to elevated blood glucose.

Effects of density turbulence on helicon wave propagation in the core plasmas [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences
Radio frequency wave propagation can be significantly affected by density irregularities, such as filaments in the scrape-off layer or instabilities in the core plasma.

Dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) regulates trophoblast syncytialization through organelle stress–induced cellular senescence

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The inhibition of mitochondrial dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) impairs syncytialization and induces cellular senescence via mitochondrial and endoplasmic reticulum stress in human trophoblast stem cells, elevating sFlt1/PlGF levels, a hallmark of placental dysfunction in hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.

Impact of lower hybrid current drive on edge velocity shear and turbulence in the HL-2A tokamak

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
The effect of lower hybrid current drive (LHCD) on edge velocity shear and turbulence in the HL-2A tokamak has been investigated. Experimental results demonstrate that the LHCD leads to an increase in edge velocity shear at both the inner and outer shear

Promiscuous stimulation of HSP70 ATPase activity by parasite‐derived J‐domains

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum exports three highly homologous yet functionally divergent J‐domain proteins into human erythrocytes. Here, we show that J‐domains isolated from all three proteins effectively stimulate the ATPase activity of both endogenous host and exported parasite HSP70 chaperones.

Particle Dynamics in the RMP Ergodic Layer under the Influence of Edge Plasma Turbulence

open access: yesActa Polytechnica, 2013
The complex processes in edge tokamak plasma are affected (among others) both by resonant magnetic perturbation (RMP) and by plasma turbulence. RMP is nowadays considered to be a candidate for the mitigation of the edge-localized modes (ELMs). The effect
