Electrical response of β-PVDF in a constant uniaxial strain rate deformation [PDF]

, 2004
The microstructure of β-PVDF has great influence on its piezo- and pyroelectric responses. The microstructure of β-PVDF drastically changes upon a mechanical deformation perpendicular to the preferred chain orientation, mainly above the yielding point ...

Inhibiting stearoyl‐CoA desaturase suppresses bone metastatic prostate cancer by modulating cellular stress, mTOR signaling, and DNA damage response

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Bone metastasis in prostate cancer (PCa) patients is a clinical hurdle due to the poor understanding of the supportive bone microenvironment. Here, we identify stearoyl‐CoA desaturase (SCD) as a tumor‐promoting enzyme and potential therapeutic target in bone metastatic PCa.

Enhancing the Performance of PVDF/GO Ultrafiltration Membrane via Improving the Dispersion of GO with Homogeniser

Membranes, 2022
In this study, PVDF/GO-h composite membranes were synthesised using a homogeniser to improve the dispersion of GO nanosheets within the composite membrane’s structure, and then characterised and contrasted to PVDF/GO-s control samples, which were ...

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

PARP inhibitors elicit distinct transcriptional programs in homologous recombination competent castration‐resistant prostate cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PARP inhibitors are used to treat a small subset of prostate cancer patients. These studies reveal that PARP1 activity and expression are different between European American and African American prostate cancer tissue samples. Additionally, different PARP inhibitors cause unique and overlapping transcriptional changes, notably, p53 pathway upregulation.

Thin films of vinylidene fluoride copolymer with tetrafluoroethylene: dynamics of ferroelectric polarization switching

Фізика і хімія твердого тіла, 2020
The vinylidene fluoride copolymer with tetrafluoroethylene P(VDF-TFE) is a typical ferroelectric polymer that has not been sufficiently studied so far in comparison with pure polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and its copolymer with trifluoroethylene.

Construction of a high-efficiency piezoelectric nanogenerator based on in situ polarization of PVDF nanofiber films by electrospinning

工程科学学报, 2023
Because of the global fossil energy crisis and environmental pollution problems, the efficient use of green, renewable, and clean energy has become a major trend. Mechanical energy is considered an ideal alternative energy source because of its abundance,

Effect of membrane character and solution chemistry on microfiltration performance [PDF]

, 2008
To help understand and predict the role of natural organic matter (NOM) in the fouling of low-pressure membranes, experiments were carried out with an apparatus that incorporates automatic backwashing and long filtration runs.

Crystallinity and β Phase Fraction of PVDF in Biaxially Stretched PVDF/PMMA Films

Polymers, 2021
Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) blend films were prepared using biaxial stretching. The effects of PMMA content and stretching ratio on the crystallinity and β phase fraction of PVDF in blend films were investigated ...
