BuildingsDouble-column self-centering segmentally assembled bridges (SC-SABs) present greater design complexity compared to single-column systems, primarily due to vertical stiffness discontinuities at segmental spandrel abutments, which critically affect the ...

Seismic performance assessment of self-centering dual systems with different configurations
Structures, 2016 Abstract Concentrically braced frame (CBF) systems have limited capacity for lateral displacement, causing structural damage that leads to high post-earthquake costs under moderate earthquakes. Self-centering concentrically braced frame (SC-CBF) systems have been developed to soften the lateral force–lateral drift response of the system without ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.
