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 ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

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

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the

Study on the Dynamic Response of a Heaving Buoy with an Accumulator-Integrated Hydraulic Power Take-Off System Under Dam-Break Flow Using a Modified Moving Particle Semi-Implicit Method

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
The moving particle semi-implicit (MPS) method is employed to investigate the dynamic response of a wave energy converter (WEC) buoy subjected to dam-break flows.

Modulation of Homer1 EVH1 domain internal dynamics by putative autism‐associated mutations

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The putative autism‐associated M65I and S97L variants of the EVH1 domain of the postsynaptic scaffold protein Homer1 do not exhibit substantial changes in their overall structure or partner binding. Both of them, but especially the M65I variant, show altered internal dynamics relative to the wild‐type domain on the μs‐ms timescale, indicated by the ...

Power enhancement of pontoon-type wave energy convertor via hydroelastic response and variable power take-off system

open access: yesJournal of Ocean Engineering and Science, 2020
Wave energy has gained its popularity in recent decades due to the vast amount of untapped wave energy resources. There are numerous types of wave energy convertor (WEC) being proposed and to be economically viable, various means to enhance the power ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Experimental investigation on hydrodynamic performance of a dual pontoon-power take-off type wave energy converter integrated with floating breakwaters

open access: yes, 2019
As an extension of the single pontoon wave energy converter–type breakwater, a wave energy converter–type breakwater equipped with dual pontoon–power take-off system is proposed to broaden the effective frequency range (for transmission coefficient KT ...
