Next‐generation proteomics improves lung cancer risk prediction

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This is one of very few studies that used prediagnostic blood samples from participants of two large population‐based cohorts. We identified, evaluated, and validated an innovative protein marker model that outperformed an established risk prediction model and criteria employed by low‐dose computed tomography in lung cancer screening trials.

Segmented multiblock polyolefin compatibilizers from non-living metathesis chain-shuffling

Nature Communications
The mechanical properties of mixed plastics can be enhanced by block copolymer compatibilizer additives. Here we report a series of semi-crystalline/semi-crystalline linear multiblock copolymers of LLDPE and PP, the two most abundant plastics, from a non-

Drift of a polymer chain in disordered media

, 1999
We consider the drift of a polymer chain in a disordered medium, which is caused by a constant force applied to the one end of the polymer, under neglecting the thermal fluctuations.

Dynamic surface decoupling in a sheared polymer melt [PDF]

, 2005
We propose that several mechanisms contribute to friction in a polymer melt adsorbed at a structured surface. The first one is the well known disentanglement of bulk polymer chains from the surface layer.

Potential therapeutic targeting of BKCa channels in glioblastoma treatment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review summarizes current insights into the role of BKCa and mitoBKCa channels in glioblastoma biology, their potential classification as oncochannels, and the emerging pharmacological strategies targeting these channels, emphasizing the translational challenges in developing BKCa‐directed therapies for glioblastoma treatment.

Conductividad iónica en nuevos compositos (PEO)10(CF3COONa)-X % Al2O3 [PDF]

Universitas Scientiarum, 2013
To increase the ionic conductivity of solid polymer electrolyte, (PEO)10CF3COONa, we formed new composites by adding alumina particles as a filler.

Plecstatin inhibits hepatocellular carcinoma tumorigenesis and invasion through cytolinker plectin

Molecular 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.

Dynamic scaling theory of the forced translocation of a semi-flexible polymer through a nanopore

, 2015
We present a theoretical description of the dynamics of a semi-flexible polymer being pulled through a nanopore by an external force acting at the pore.

Microfluidic electro‐viscoelastic manipulation of extracellular vesicles

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The electro‐viscoelastic manipulation as a potential method for separation of particles based on size. The particles introduced as a sheath flow migrate to the channel center under the influence of simultaneously applied electric field and pressure driven flow.

Texturing polymer surfaces by transfer casting [PDF]

, 1982
A technique for fabricating textured surfaces on polymers without altering their surface chemistries is described. A surface of a fluorocarbon polymer is exposed to a beam of ions to texture it.
