Fundamentals of soil stabilization

open access: yesInternational Journal of Geo-Engineering, 2017
Clayey soils are usually stiff when they are dry and give up their stiffness as they become saturated. Soft clays are associated with low compressive strength and excessive settlement. This reduction in strength due to moisture leads to severe damages to

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Application of Lignin for Slope Bioengineering: Effect on Soil Improvement and Plant Growth

open access: yesApplied Sciences
This study aims to establish whether lignin-treated soils could result in greater soil strength and stimulate seed germination and growth, which can be essential for slope bioengineering. Three different soil types with a range of plasticity were treated

Glycosylation and stabilization of programmed death ligand-1 suppresses T-cell activity

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Extracellular interaction between programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) and programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) leads to tumour-associated immune escape. Here we show that the immunosuppression activity of PD-L1 is stringently modulated by ubiquitination ...

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

The deubiquitylase OTUB1 mediates ferroptosis via stabilization of SLC7A11

open access: yesCancer Research, 2019
Although cell cycle arrest, senescence, and apoptosis are established mechanisms of tumor suppression, accumulating evidence reveals that ferroptosis, an iron-dependent, non-apoptotic form of cell death, represents a new regulatory pathway in suppressing

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Uncertainty factor in modeling dynamics of economic systems [PDF]

open access: yesКомпьютерные исследования и моделирование, 2018
Analysis and practical aspects of implementing developed in the control theory robust control methods in studying economic systems is carried out. The main emphasis is placed on studying results obtained for dynamical systems with structured uncertainty.

The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Pharmacokinetic study of a new 4,5-dihydroisoxazole-5-carboxamide derivative in rats

open access: yesРазработка и регистрация лекарственных средств
Introduction. 3-(2-butyl-5-chloro-1H-imidazole-4-yl)-N-[4-methoxy-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-4,5-dihydro-1,2-oxazole-5-carboxamide (R004) is a prospective new molecule for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.
