CCT4 promotes tunneling nanotube formation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Tunneling nanotubes (TNTs) are membranous tunnel‐like structures that transport molecules and organelles between cells. They vary in thickness, and thick nanotubes often contain microtubules in addition to actin fibers. We found that cells expressing monomeric CCT4 generate many thick TNTs with tubulin.

Mandibular Third Molars and Their Influence on Mandibular Angle Fracture Fixation [PDF]

International Journal of Anatomy Radiology and Surgery, 2019
Introduction: Mandibular fractures occur commonly in Singapore and 32% involve the angle. The third molar (M3) predisposes the angle to fracture and is often involved in the fracture site.

Analysis of products from the pyrolysis of plastics recovered from the commercial scale recycling of waste electrical and electronic equipment [PDF]

, 2007
Three plastic fractions from a commercial waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) processing plant were collected and investigated for the possibility of recycling them by batch pyrolysis. The first plastic was from equipment containing cathode

A Plastic Clock [PDF]

Neuron, 2013
Although circadian clocks normally run with a 24 hr period, Brancaccio et al. (2013) report in this issue of Neuron that transiently activating G protein signaling can lengthen period even after the stimulus is removed, revealing an unexpected plasticity in the central brain clock.

Dose‐dependent induction of epithelial‐mesenchymal transition in 3D melanoma models by non‐thermal plasma treatment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Non‐thermal plasma treatment of melanoma cells induced epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in a dose‐dependent fashion. This report highlights the critical need to further investigate potential adverse effects of non‐thermal plasma for cancer therapy and to optimize treatment parameters for clinical translation. Despite the promising results of non‐
