Long‐Term Stress Adaptation as a Highly‐Conserved Key Factor in Yeast Aging
This study shows that long‐term, but not short‐term, stress exposure triggers molecular changes in yeast that mirror established hallmarks of aging, including altered proteostasis, epigenetic shifts, and reduced lifespan. These changes are reversible upon stress removal, and the genes involved are conserved across all domains of life. ABSTRACT Aging is

Effect of the Nonprestressed/Prestressed BFRP Bar on Flexural Performance of the Bamboo Beam
Until now, the systematical and comprehensive strengthening techniques have not been formed for the bamboo structure. Under such background, this paper aims to explore the effects of the application of the nonprestressed and prestressed basalt fiber ...
