Entropy Driven Phase Transition in Polymer Gels: Mean Field Theory

open access: yesEntropy, 2018
We present a mean field model of a gel consisting of P polymers, each of length L and Nz polyfunctional monomers. Each polyfunctional monomer forms z covalent bonds with the 2P bifunctional monomers at the ends of the linear polymers.

Analyzing the Saturation of Growing Stem Volume Based on ZY-3 Stereo and Multispectral Images in Planted Coniferous Forest

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2022
Recently, remote sensing (RS) technology are becoming an increasingly important technology in estimating forest growing stem volume (GSV), and the saturation issue of spectral variables from various optical sensors severely hinders the improvement of ...

Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.

Chronological Incongruences between Mitochondrial and Nuclear Phylogenies of Aedes Mosquitoes

open access: yesLife, 2021
One-third of all mosquitoes belong to the Aedini, a tribe comprising common vectors of viral zoonoses such as Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus.

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

open access: yesFEBS 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.

The Influencing Factors and Calculation Methods of Rock Electrical Parameters of Carbonate Reservoirs

open access: yesCejing jishu
The pore structure of carbonate reservoir is much more complex than that of clastic reservoir, and its rock electrical parameters m and n vary widely, which is difficult to obtain accurately, and the fixed rock electrical parameters are used to calculate

Effect of apparent gas velocity on performance of oleophobic coalescence filter cartridge and its structure improvement

open access: yesYou-qi chuyun, 2022
The frequent fluctuation of gas flow during the storage and transportation can easily lead to the failure of filter cartridge and the shortening of its service life.

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Benchmarking of Sensor Configurations and Measurement Sites for Out-of-the-Lab Photoplethysmography

open access: yesSensors, 2023
Photoplethysmography (PPG) is used for heart-rate monitoring in a variety of contexts and applications due to its versatility and simplicity. These applications, namely studies involving PPG data acquisition during day-to-day activities, require reliable

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.
