Reconstituted Fusion Pore [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2003
Fusion pores or porosomes are basket-like structures at the cell plasma membrane, at the base of which, membrane-bound secretory vesicles dock and fuse to release vesicular contents. Earlier studies using atomic force microscopy (AFM) demonstrated the presence of fusion pores at the cell plasma membrane in a number of live secretory cells, revealing ...

Multi-scale simulation of capillary pores and gel pores in Portland cement paste [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The microstructures of Portland cement paste (water to cement ratio is 0.4, curing time is from 1 day to 28 days) are simulated based on the numerical cement hydration model, HUMOSTRUC3D (van Breugel, 1991; Koenders, 1997; Ye, 2003).

Evolution of vacancy pores in bounded particles

open access: yes, 2018
In the present work, the behavior of vacancy pore inside of spherical particle is investigated. On the assumption of quasistationarity of diffusion fluxes, the nonlinear equation set was obtained analytically, that describes completely pore behavior ...

An electron acceptor molecule in a nanomesh: F4TCNQ on h-BN/Rh(111) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The adsorption of molecules on surfaces affects the surface dipole and thus changes in the work function may be expected. The effect in change of work function is particularly strong if charge between substrate and adsorbate is involved.

Dehydration as a Universal Mechanism for Ion Selectivity in Graphene and Other Atomically Thin Pores. [PDF]

open access: yesNano letters (Print), 2016
Ion channels play a key role in regulating cell behavior and in electrical signaling. In these settings, polar and charged functional groups, as well as protein response, compensate for dehydration in an ion-dependent way, giving rise to the ion ...

A Quality Improvement Initiative to Standardize Pneumocystis jirovecii Pneumonia Prophylaxis in Pediatric Patients With Solid Tumors

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric patients with extracranial solid tumors (ST) receiving chemotherapy are at an increased risk for Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP). However, evidence guiding prophylaxis practices in this population is limited. A PJP‐related fatality at our institution highlighted inconsistent prescribing approaches and concerns about

Size effects for micro-fractured bodies under compressive loading [PDF]

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Mechanics, 2011
A two-scale damage model for micro-fractured media is constructed using the asymptotic homogenization method. At the small-scale level, we consider locally periodic microstructures of two-types: micro-cracks nucleating from pores and wing-type micro ...

Sickle Cell Disease Is an Inherent Risk for Asthma in a Sibling Comparison Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Sickle cell disease (SCD) and asthma share a complex relationship. Although estimates vary, asthma prevalence in children with SCD is believed to be comparable to or higher than the general population. Determining whether SCD confers an increased risk for asthma remains challenging due to overlapping symptoms and the ...
