The Role of Sacrificial and/or Protective Layers to Improve the Sintering of Electroactive Ceramics: Application to Piezoelectric PZT-Printed Thick Films for MEMS

Ceramics, 2020
Piezoelectric thick films are of real interest for devices such as ceramic Micro-ElectroMechanical Systems (MEMS) because they bridge the gap between thin films and bulk ceramics. The basic design of MEMS includes electrodes, a functional material, and a

Sacrificial Polymers for Rapid Manufacturing of Vascular Materials

, 2019
Conventional vascularization methods for making multifunctional composites are limited by time and energy-intensive processes. Exothermic curing of the host matrix with simultaneous degradation of the sacrificial polymer enables rapid manufacturing of vascular polymers and composites.

USP29‐regulated noncanonical stabilization of the hypoxia‐inducible factor‐α in aggressive prostate cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We identify USP29 as the only DUB mirroring CA9 expression, a marker of hypoxia and HIF pathway activation associated with PCA aggressiveness. USP29 stabilizes HIF‐1α and HIF‐2α via a noncanonical mechanism that is independent of PHD/pVHL activity yet relies on proteasomal regulation, establishing USP29 as a previously unrecognized regulator of hypoxic

The role of topology and thermal backbone fluctuations on sacrificial bond efficacy in mechanical metalloproteins

New Journal of Physics, 2014
Sacrificial bonding is a ubiquitous cross-linking strategy for increasing toughness that is found throughout nature in various biological materials such as bone, wood, silk and mussel byssal threads.

MOFs as sacrificial templates for preparation of nanoporous carbon materials and their applications [PDF]

Chinese Science Bulletin, 2015
In recent years, nanoporous materials have attracted much attention owing to their high specific surface areas and narrow pore-size distribution. These materials have been widely used in gas storage, gas separation, catalysis and electrochemistry. Nanoporous carbon materials (NPCs), a sub-family of nanoporous materials, have been one type of the most ...

Loss of proton‐sensing TDAG8 increases tumor progression in mouse models of colon cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the pH‐sensing receptor TDAG8 accelerates colorectal cancer progression in mice. Animals lacking TDAG8 expression had increased tumor growth, DNA damage, and recruitment of tumor‐associated immune cells, including macrophages, neutrophils, and monocytes.

Quantitative Microstructure of Multiphase Al-Zn-Si-(Mg) Coatings and Their Effects on Sacrificial Protection for Steel

Metals
A new combined analysis of SEM-BSE and EDX images using AphelionTM software was proposed to describe the quantitative microstructure (quantity and neighborhood of sacrificial phases) of Al-Zn-Si-(Mg) coatings on steel.

A Fast Route Towards Freestanding Single-Crystalline Oxide Thin Films by Using YBa2Cu3O7-x as a Sacrificial Layer

Nanoscale Research Letters, 2020
Researchers have long been seeking multifunctional materials that can be adopted for next-generation nanoelectronics, and which, hopefully, are compatible with current semiconductor processing for further integration. Along this vein, complex oxides have

Biodegradable Inks in Indirect Three-Dimensional Bioprinting for Tissue Vascularization

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Mature vasculature is important for the survival of bioengineered tissue constructs, both in vivo and in vitro; however, the fabrication of fully vascularized tissue constructs remains a great challenge in tissue engineering.

Time‐restricted feeding prior to Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection reduces tissue CD4+ T cells with limited impact on bacterial clearance

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Time‐restricted feeding (TRF) in mice increased liver fatty acid oxidation and decreased fatty acid biosynthesis. These alterations persisted when TRF was discontinued and the host was infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Pre‐exposure to TRF did not alter tissue (lung and spleen) mycobacterial burden but significantly reduced CD3+ T cells in lungs
