Abstract Recently, we suggested the combination of chemotherapy and P2RX4 inhibition as a promising novel therapeutic approach for P2RX4‐expressing epithelial tumors to prevent paracrine resistance. Here, we aimed to assess whether determining P2RX4 expression status in colorectal and pancreatic cancer patients would allow stratification of potentially

Comparison of Finite Volume Method and Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamic in Modeling of Flow over Sharp-Crested Weir [PDF]
This study presents a new hybrid algorithm for treating solid wall boundaries in the context of smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) model. In this way, the basic concept is to fill an impervious region with some layers of dummy particles for improving ...

Exploring biofiber properties and their influence on biocomposite tensile properties
The study measured the physical, flow and chemical properties of 10 biofibers. It characterized the tensile properties of derived biocomposites and linked them using regression models, showing robust predictive performance. Abstract Biofibers serve as effective reinforcements for neat polylactic acid (PLA) in biocomposites, offering an attractive ...

Numerical Investigation of Fluid Mixing in a Micro-Channel Mixer with Two Rotating Stirrers by Using the Incompressible SPH Method [PDF]
Fluid mixing is a crucial and challenging process for microfluidic systems, which are widely used in biochemical processes. Because of their fast performance, active micromixers that use stirrer blades are considered for biological applications.

As the hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) remains the current gold standard for diagnosing portal hypertension in cirrhosis, its clinical application is limited by invasiveness, high cost, and restricted availability. Given the urgent need for noninvasive techniques to dynamically monitor portal vein pressure (PVP), contrast‐enhanced ...

Osmotic Remodeling of Extracellular Vesicles for Precision Nanomedicine
Hypotonic lysis in bidistilled water is used to remodel B lymphocyte–derived extracellular vesicles into cargo‐depleted, structurally preserved nanovesicles. The process reduces intraluminal proteins and nucleic acids, reshapes membrane composition, and enhances tumor‐cell uptake in vitro, while allowing proof‐of‐concept reloading with exogenous agents,

Outer‐Sphere Tuning of Synthetic Iron–Sulfur Clusters Within Nanoscale Cage Frameworks
Noncovalent encapsulation of a synthetic iron–sulfur cluster within hydrophobic, naphthalenediimide (NDI)‐paneled cages is shown to lead to dramatic changes in the electronic structure and covalency of the Fe─S core. ABSTRACT As atomic‐scale archetypes for multi‐electron transfer, iron–sulfur clusters are compelling candidates for the design of redox ...

Abstract This study evaluates the seismic performance of elevated reinforced concrete (RC) water tanks in the Elbistan region following the February 6, 2023 Kahramanmaras–Elbistan earthquakes. Field investigations, visual damage surveys, non‐destructive testing (ultrasonic pulse velocity—UPV), concrete compressive strength measurements, peak ground ...

ABSTRACT The association between pesticide exposure and Parkinson's disease (PD) is substantial, but heterogeneity in methodology and lack of categorization according to the type of exposure and pesticide classes in previous meta‐analyses impair the interpretation of data. This study aims to update evidence of the association between pesticide exposure
