Reduction of radiation exposure to operating physician and assistant using a real-time auditory feedback dosimeter during femoral artery puncturing: a study on swine model

open access: yesEuropean Radiology Experimental, 2019
Background Real-time dosimeters may create a relatively safer environment not only for the patient but also for the physician and the assistant as well. We propose the use of a real-time radiation measurement dosimeter having auditory feedback to reduce ...

Exploiting metabolic adaptations to overcome dabrafenib treatment resistance in melanoma cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We show that dabrafenib‐resistant melanoma cells undergo mitochondrial remodeling, leading to elevated respiration and ROS production balanced by stronger antioxidant defenses. This altered redox state promotes survival despite mitochondrial damage but renders resistant cells highly vulnerable to ROS‐inducing compounds such as PEITC, highlighting redox

Investigating laser induced phase engineering in MoS2 transistors

open access: yes, 2018
Phase engineering of MoS2 transistors has recently been demonstrated and has led to record low contact resistances. The phase patterning of MoS2 flakes with laser radiation has also been realized via spectroscopic methods, which invites the potential of ...

LDAcoop: Integrating non‐linear population dynamics into the analysis of clonogenic growth in vitro

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Limiting dilution assays (LDAs) quantify clonogenic growth by seeding serial dilutions of cells and scoring wells for colony formation. The fraction of negative wells is plotted against cells seeded and analyzed using the non‐linear modeling of LDAcoop.
