Laser surface texturing of a WC-CoNi cemented carbide grade: surface topography design for honing application [PDF]

, 2018
Abrasive effectiveness of composite-like honing stones is related to the intrinsic surface topography resulting from the cubic boron nitride (CBN) grains protruding out of the metallic matrix.

The role of fibroblast growth factors in cell and cancer metabolism

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling regulates crucial signaling cascades that promote cell proliferation, survival, and metabolism. Therefore, FGFs and their receptors are often dysregulated in human diseases, including cancer, to sustain proliferation and rewire metabolism.

Surface modification of solids [PDF]

Journal of Materials for Energy Systems, 1984
The use of ion beam and pulsed laser processing is reviewed for the nearsurface modification of a wide range of materials. The techniques of ion implantation doping, ion beam and laser mixing, and pulsedlaser annealing are stressed with particular emphasis on the nonequilibrium aspects of these processing techniques and on new materials properties ...

A Cre‐dependent lentiviral vector for neuron subtype‐specific expression of large proteins

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We designed a versatile and modular lentivector comprising a Cre‐dependent switch and self‐cleaving 2A peptide and tested it for co‐expression of GFP and a 2.8 kb gene of interest (GOI) in mouse cortical parvalbumin (PV+) interneurons and midbrain dopamine (TH+) neurons.

The influence of the surface morphology of dental implants on bone integration

Fogorvosi Szemle, 2019
Surface morphology of dental implants is one of the Bränemark osseointegration conditions formulated in the eighties. In the past couple of decades – as in many other areas within oral implantology – significant changes have taken place.

A large‐scale retrospective study in metastatic breast cancer patients using circulating tumour DNA and machine learning to predict treatment outcome and progression‐free survival

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
There is an unmet need in metastatic breast cancer patients to monitor therapy response in real time. In this study, we show how a noninvasive and affordable strategy based on sequencing of plasma samples with longitudinal tracking of tumour fraction paired with a statistical model provides valuable information on treatment response in advance of the ...
