High‐Loaded Bismuth Oxide/Copper Silicone Rubber Composites and Their Application as Shielding Collar for I‐131 Treated Thyroid Cancer Patients

open access: yesSPE Polymers, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2026.
Development of high‐filler‐content silicone rubber composites containing up to 80 wt% bismuth oxide or copper, demonstrating significant I‐131 attenuation with retained flexibility and durability. ABSTRACT The development of flexible, non‐lead radiation‐shielding materials remains a critical challenge, particularly for I‐131 protection, where no ...

Comparison of and as Reporter Genes for Noninvasive Imaging of Bone Mesenchymal Stem Cells Transplanted into Infarcted Rat Myocardium

open access: yesMolecular Imaging, 2011
The purpose of this study was to investigate and compare the feasibility of rat sodium iodide symporter ( rNIS ) and human sodium iodide symporter ( hNIS ) as reporter genes for noninvasive monitoring of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (rBMSCs ...

[18F]tetrafluoroborate as a PET tracer for the sodium/iodide symporter: the importance of specific activity

open access: yesEJNMMI Research, 2016
Background[18F]BF4−, the first 18F-labelled PET imaging agent for the sodium/iodide symporter (NIS), was produced by isotopic exchange yielding a product with limited specific activity (SA, ca.

Investigating the mechanism of aluminum resistance conferred by aluminum resistance protein 1

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Aluminum does not play any role in essential biological processes, but in acidic conditions it becomes biologically reactive and highly toxic even at low concentrations. Eukaryotes have developed numerous strategies for detoxification, one of which relies on membrane proteins.

Unilateral breast uptake of Tc-99m pertechnetate in a patient with cold nodule of the thyroid

open access: yesWorld Journal of Nuclear Medicine, 2012
Common causes of unilateral breast uptake of Tc-99m pertechnetate are predominant breast-feeding on one side, mastitis, and breast cancer. Uptake of Tc-99m pertechnetate in the epithelial cells of the breast, like that of iodide, depends on the ...

Structural insights into the elevator-like mechanism of the sodium/citrate symporter CitS

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
The sodium-dependent citrate transporter of Klebsiella pneumoniae (KpCitS) belongs to the 2-hydroxycarboxylate transporter (2-HCT) family and allows the cell to use citrate as sole carbon and energy source in anaerobic conditions. Here we present crystal

Mycelial dynamics in arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 2, Page 691-713, January 2026.
Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), similar to other filamentous fungi, develop extensive hyphal networks collectively known as mycelia. AMF mycelia are complemented by a variety of specialized structures such as spores, vesicles, and auxiliary cells, which together form integrated and functionally diverse AMF networks.

Light-induced transcriptional responses associated with proteorhodopsin-enhanced growth in a marine flavobacterium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Proteorhodopsin (PR) is a photoprotein that functions as a light-driven proton pump in diverse marine Bacteria and Archaea. Recent studies have suggested that PR may enhance both growth rate and yield in some flavobacteria when grown under nutrient ...

Shortcutting photorespiration: avenues and challenges toward realizing higher‐yielding photorespiratory bypass crops

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 2, Page 675-690, January 2026.
Summary Photorespiration is a major source of photosynthetic inefficiency in C3 crops. In photorespiration, the oxygenation rather than carboxylation of RuBP by Rubisco triggers an energy‐expensive pathway to recycle inhibitory byproducts and recapture lost carbon, ultimately reducing yields.
