Using small-angle X-ray scattering to investigate the compaction behaviour of a granulated clay [PDF]
, 2015 The compaction behaviour of a commercial granulated clay (magnesium aluminium smectite, gMgSm) was investigated using macroscopic pressure-density measurements, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray microtomography (XμT) and ...

Assessing the microstructural and rheological changes induced by food additives on potato puree [PDF]
, 2018 The effects of agar, alginate, lecithin and glycerol on the rheological properties of commercial potato puree were investigated and interpreted in terms of starch microstructural changes, and the applicability of the Cox-Merz rule was evaluated.

Stress Granules and Virus Replication [PDF]
Future Virology, 2011 Viruses are dependent on the cellular translation machinery for protein synthesis. Part of the innate immune response to infection is activation of the stress kinase PKR which phosphorylates the alpha subunit of the initiation factor eIF2. This results in inhibition of translation and is intended to block virus replication.

Shigella flexnerimodulates stress granule composition and inhibits stress granule aggregation [PDF]
Cellular Microbiology, 2016 Invasion and multiplication of the facultative, cytosolic, enteropathogen Shigella flexneri within the colonic epithelial lining leads to an acute inflammatory response, fever and diarrhea. During the inflammatory process, infected cells are subjected to numerous stresses including heat, oxidative stress and genotoxic stress.

The small molecule ISRIB reverses the effects of eIF2α phosphorylation on translation and stress granule assembly. [PDF]
, 2015 Previously, we identified ISRIB as a potent inhibitor of the integrated stress response (ISR) and showed that ISRIB makes cells resistant to the effects of eIF2α phosphorylation and enhances long-term memory in rodents (Sidrauski et al., 2013).

Pre-implantation mouse embryos cultured In vitro under different oxygen concentrations show altered ultrastructures [PDF]
, 2020 Assisted Reproductive Technologies routinely utilize different culture media and oxygen (O2) concentrations to culture human embryos. Overall, embryos cultured under physiological O2 tension (5%) have improved development compared to embryos cultured ...

Stress granule transcription [PDF]
Science, 2018 Molecular Biology When translation initiation is stalled under stress, nontranslating messenger ribonucleoproteins form insoluble assemblies called stress granules (SGs) in the cytosol. Namkoong et al. sequenced all transcripts from purified SGs. They found that although translation of most transcripts is inhibited, only a subset of transcripts form ...

The Role of Cytoplasmic mRNA Cap-Binding Protein Complexes in Trypanosoma brucei and Other Trypanosomatids. [PDF]
, 2017 Trypanosomatid protozoa are unusual eukaryotes that are well known for having unusual ways of controlling their gene expression. The lack of a refined mode of transcriptional control in these organisms is compensated by several post-transcriptional ...
