A molecular dynamics simulation of water confined in a cylindrical SiO2 pore

, 1998
A molecular dynamics simulation of water confined in a silica pore is performed in order to compare it with recent experimental results on water confined in porous Vycor glass at room temperature.

Changes in gas permeability and pore structure of wood under heat treating temperature conditions

Journal of Wood Science, 2019
In this study, changes in gas permeability and pore structure of wood are evaluated after heat treatment with temperatures ranging from 190 to 230 °C for 6 h for both hardwood (yellow poplar: Liriodendron tulipifera) and softwood (Korean red pine: Pinus ...

Intron‐oriented HTLV‐1 integration in an adult T‐cell leukemia/lymphoma cell line sustains expression of intact ift81 mRNA

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In the adult T‐cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) cell line ED, the human T‐cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV‐1) provirus was integrated into the intron of the ift81 gene in the antisense orientation. Despite this integration, both the intact ift81 and the viral oncogene hbz were simultaneously expressed, likely due to the functional insufficiency of viral ...

The Permeability of Waste Fiber Recycled Concrete

Medžiagotyra, 2019
Permeability is one of the major performances for recycled aggregate concrete, which affects the durability and service life of concrete structures. In most cases, the main factor affecting the permeability of recycled aggregate concrete is the pore ...

Cyclic nucleotide signaling as a drug target in retinitis pigmentosa

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Disruptions in cGMP and cAMP signaling can contribute to retinal dysfunction and photoreceptor loss in retinitis pigmentosa. This perspective examines the mechanisms and evaluates emerging evidence on targeting these pathways as a potential therapeutic strategy to slow or prevent retinal degeneration.

The pore structure of Clostridium perfringens epsilon toxin

Nature Communications, 2019
Epsilon toxin (Etx), a potent pore forming toxin (PFT) produced by Clostridium perfringens, is responsible for the pathogenesis of enterotoxaemia of ruminants and has been suggested to play a role in multiple sclerosis in humans.

TRAF2 binds to TIFA via a novel motif and contributes to its autophagic degradation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
TRAF family members couple receptor signalling complexes to downstream outputs, but how they interact with these complexes is not always clear. Here, we show that during ADP‐heptose signalling, TRAF2 binding to TIFA requires two short sequence motifs in the C‐terminal tail of TIFA, which are distinct from the TRAF6 binding motif.

The epithelial barrier theory proposes a comprehensive explanation for the origins of allergic and other chronic noncommunicable diseases

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Exposure to common noxious agents (1), including allergens, pollutants, and micro‐nanoplastics, can cause epithelial barrier damage (2) in our body's protective linings. This may trigger an immune response to our microbiome (3). The epithelial barrier theory explains how this process can lead to chronic noncommunicable diseases (4) affecting organs ...

Pore structure characterization of porous building material by X-ray computed tomography (XCT) and X-ray microscopy (XRM)

e-Journal of Nondestructive Testing
 The pore structure of porous building materials, with pore elements ranging from nanometer to millimeter scale, often is a crucial factor that impacts the material’s functional properties.
