Notes on Certain Newton Gravity Mechanisms of Wave Function Localisation and Decoherence [PDF]

, 2006
Both the additional non-linear term in the Schr\"odinger equation and the additional non-Hamiltonian term in the von Neumann equation, proposed to ensure localisation and decoherence of macro-objects, resp., contain the same Newtonian interaction ...

Diabetes‐induced vascular calcification is associated with low pyrophosphate and its oral supplementation prevents calcification in diabetic mice

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Induction of diabetes in three different mouse strains uniformly resulted in an increase in TNAP activity and a reduction in pyrophosphate (PPi) in the circulation. Inhibition of TNAP restored plasma PPi. Diabetes‐induced calcification in the media layer of the aorta was detected only in the Abcc6−/− strain, which is predisposed to ectopic ...

Experimental study on the tribo-chemical smoothening process between self-mated silicon carbide in a water-lubricated surface-contact reciprocating test

Friction, 2018
Silicon carbide (SiC) can be tribo-chemically smoothened during a self-mated sliding procedure in the aqueous environment. As well reported in the point-contact tests, this smoothening process works well due to the abundant water as oxidant.

Calcium‐sensing receptor induces the apoptosis of chondrocytes in cooperation with phosphate transporter

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Excess Ca2+ ions activate the Calcium‐Sensing Receptor (CaSR), which subsequently drives the uptake of excess inorganic phosphate (Pi) via the Pi transporter (Pit−1) in chondrocytes. This mechanism causes a toxic increase in intracellular Pi concentration, ultimately leading to chondrocyte apoptosis and pathological mineralization. Excess extracellular

Temporal and partial inhibition of GLI1 in neural stem cells (NSCs) results in the early maturation of NSC derived oligodendrocytes in vitro. [PDF]

, 2019
BackgroundOligodendrocytes are a type of glial cells that synthesize the myelin sheath around the axons and are critical for the nerve conduction in the CNS.

Kinetic and Transport Equations for Localized Excitations in Sine-Gordon Model

, 1999
We analyze the kinetic behavior of localized excitations - solitons, breathers and phonons - in Sine-Gordon model. Collision integrals for all type of localized excitation collision processes are constructed, and the kinetic equations are derived.

Time-dependent bond-current functional theory for lattice Hamiltonians: fundamental theorem and application to electron transport [PDF]

, 2011
The cornerstone of time-dependent (TD) density functional theory (DFT), the Runge-Gross theorem, proves a one-to-one correspondence between TD potentials and TD densities of continuum Hamiltonians. In all practical implementations, however, the basis set

Residue 6.43 defines receptor function in class F GPCRs

Nature Communications, 2021
The class Frizzled of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) consist of ten Frizzled (FZD1-10) subtypes and Smoothened (SMO). Here the Schulte laboratory demonstrates that FZDs differ substantially from SMO in receptor activation-associated conformational ...

Finite-size scaling as a tool in the search for the QCD critical point in heavy ion data

, 2011
Given the short lifetime and the reduced volume of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) formed in high-energy heavy ion collisions, a possible critical endpoint (CEP) will be blurred in a region and the effects from criticality severely smoothened. Nevertheless,
