Effects of Environmental Surface Modification Methods on Physical Properties of Hemp Fibers

open access: yesMedžiagotyra, 2017
In this study, hemp fibers have been pre-treated with laccase enzyme in different concentrations (1%, 2% and 3% w/v) for different durations using conventional, ultrasonic energy and microwave energy methods. Weight loss (%), tensile strength, elongation

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.

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

open access: yesFEBS 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.

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

Surface treatment of tool steels against galling failure

open access: yes, 2018
In the present study two highly alloyed steel grades, intended for cold working applications, were subjected to plane-contact, nonlubricating sliding friction testing in order to estimate the working regions (applied pressure and sliding velocity) that ...
