Take-off speed in jumping mantises depends on body size and a power limited mechanism

open access: yes, 2016
Many insects such as fleas, froghoppers and grasshoppers use a catapult mechanism to jump and a direct consequence of this is that their take-off velocities are independent of their mass.

Research on Thermodynamic Characteristics of Hydraulic Power Take-Off System in Wave Energy Converter

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
Hydraulic power-take-off (PTO) systems which utilize high-pressure oil circuits to transmit energy are widely applied in wave energy generation. The properties of hydraulic oil are significantly influenced by environmental conditions, and its dynamic ...

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

A Biomechanical Analysis of the Contributing Factors to Increases in Vertical Jump Height Following Exercise with Weighted Vests

open access: yesJournal of Rehabilitation Sciences and Research, 2014
Background: It has been shown that a bout of jumping exercise with weighted vests increases the subsequent countermovement jump height. However, it is not clear whether the improvement in jump height is due to the enhancement of joint power or due to ...

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Evaluation of Power Quality in Off-Grid Power System

open access: yes, 2015
The energy independence, reliability and safety of energy distribution system operation as well as use of renewable resources have been hot research topics in recent years. This research leads to the development of active distribution grids with specific

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

HOW TAKE-OFF CHARACTERISTICS INFLUENCE THE QUALITY OF THE SALTO FORWARD TUCKED?

open access: yesScience of Gymnastics Journal
The paper investigates the correlation between the quality of the salto forward tucked on the floor and the jump take-off characteristics. The main biomechanical characteristics of the take-off and their influence on the performance of the salto forward

A preliminary study of a novel wave energy converter of a Scotch Yoke mechanism-based power take-off

open access: yes, 2023
This work proposes a novel concept to harvest power from ocean waves using a Scotch Yoke mechanism to transmit the heave motion of the buoy into the rotation of an off-the-shelf rotary generator.

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.
