Block Motion Changes in Japan Triggered by the 2011 Great Tohoku Earthquake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Plate motions are governed by equilibrium between basal and edge forces. Great earthquakes may induce differential static stress changes across tectonic plates, enabling a new equilibrium state.

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

An Infrared Thermography Approach to Evaluate the Strength of a Rock Cliff

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
The mechanical strength is a fundamental characteristic of rock masses that can be empirically related to a number of properties and to the likelihood of instability phenomena.

Detection of circulating tumor DNA in colorectal cancer patients using a methylation‐specific droplet digital PCR multiplex

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We developed a cost‐effective methylation‐specific droplet digital PCR multiplex assay containing tissue‐conserved and tumor‐specific methylation markers. The assay can detect circulating tumor DNA with high accuracy in patients with localized and metastatic colorectal cancer.

Mechanical properties of Lop Nor salt rock fillers for subgrade and its forecast model construction

open access: yesFrontiers in Materials, 2023
A deep exploration was conducted on the evolution law of the mechanical properties of salt rock fillers under the influence of different forming parameters in the Lop Nor area to promote the engineering application process of salt rock.

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

Pregabalin abuse and dependence during insomnia and protocol for short-term withdrawal management with diazepam: examples from case reports [PDF]

open access: yesSleep Science
Introduction:: Pregabalin (PGN) is an anxiolytic, analgesic, antiepileptic, and hypnotic medication. There are concerns about its abuse in the community for managing chronic insomnia and other risks when assumed in overdose or combination with other ...

Annular billiard dynamics in a circularly polarized strong laser field [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We analyze the dynamics of a valence electron of the buckminsterfullerene molecule (C60) subjected to a circularly polarized laser field by modeling it with the motion of a classical particle in an annular billiard.

Inter-day reliability and usefulness of reactive strength index derived from two maximal rebound jump tests

open access: yes, 2019
Purpose: This investigation examined the inter-day reliability and usefulness of reactive strength index (RSI) derived from a maximal 5 rebound jump test (5max RJT) and a maximal 10 rebound jump test (10/5 RJT). Methods: Twenty male field sport athletes (24.5±3.0 y; 1.78±0.1 m; 84.9±5.2 kg) performed 2 maximal repetitions of the 5max RJT and the 10/5 ...
