NLRP3 inflammasome as a sensor of micro- and nanoplastics immunotoxicity
Frontiers in Immunology, 2023 Micro- and nanoplastics (MNPs) are emerging pollutants with scarcely investigated effects on human innate immunity. If they follow a similar course of action as other, more thoroughly investigated particulates, MNPs may penetrate epithelial barriers ...

Spin Susceptibility of an Ultra-Low Density Two Dimensional Electron System
, 2003 We determine the spin susceptibility in a two dimensional electron system in GaAs/AlGaAs over a wide range of low densities from 2$\times10^{9}$cm$^{-2}$ to 4$\times10^{10}$cm$^{-2}$.

The role of histone modifications in transcription regulation upon DNA damage
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This review discusses the critical role of histone modifications in regulating gene expression during the DNA damage response (DDR). By modulating chromatin structure and recruiting repair factors, these post‐translational modifications fine‐tune transcriptional programmes to maintain genomic stability.

Vaginal Microbicides: Detecting Toxicities in Vivo that Paradoxically Increase Pathogen Transmission [PDF]
, 2006 BACKGROUND: Microbicides must protect against STD pathogens without causing unacceptable toxic effects. Microbicides based on nonoxynol-9 (N9) and other detergents disrupt sperm, HSV and HIV membranes, and these agents are effective contraceptives.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Multidrug transporters BpeB and BpeF from the Gram‐negative pathogen Burkholderia pseudomallei have a hydrophilic patch in their substrate‐binding pocket. Drug susceptibility tests and growth curve analyses using an Escherichia coli recombinant expression system revealed that the hydrophilic patches of BpeB and BpeF are involved in the substrate ...

Holographic magnetic susceptibility [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2019 The (2+1)-dimensional static magnetic susceptibility in strong-coupling is studied via a Reissner-Nordstr m-AdS geometry. The analyticity of the susceptibility on the complex momentum $\mathfrak{q}$-plane in relation to the Friedel-like oscillation in coordinate space is explored.

Effects of ac-field amplitude on the dielectric susceptibility of relaxors
, 2000 The thermally activated flips of the local spontaneous polarization in relaxors were simulated to investigate the effects of the applied-ac-field amplitude on the dielectric susceptibility.

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.
