Ozone Pollution, Oxidative Stress, Regulatory T Cells and Antioxidants
Antioxidants, 2022 Ozone pollution, is a serious health problem worldwide. Repeated exposure to low ozone doses causes a loss of regulation of the oxidation–reduction systems, and also induces a chronic state of oxidative stress.

Effect of the Material Gradation on the Fracture Trajectory in Ceramic/Metal Functionally Graded Materials [PDF]
Archives of Metallurgy and MaterialsThis paper is based on a 2D numerical study of crack initiation and growth in ceramic/metal functionally graded materials (FGMs) under mixed mode condition. The finite element method is used for modeling the crack growth trajectory.

Décollement geometry controls on shallow very low frequency earthquakes
Scientific Reports, 2022 Recent studies have documented the occurrence of shallow very low frequency earthquakes (VLFE) in subduction zones. The heterogeneity of the materials or stresses that act on the plate interface results in the variable slip rate.

Fluid shear stress enhances T cell activation through Piezo1
BMC Biology, 2022 Background T cell activation is a mechanical process as much as it is a biochemical process. In this study, we used a cone-and-plate viscometer system to treat Jurkat and primary human T cells with fluid shear stress (FSS) to enhance the activation of ...

Study on the apoptosis mechanism induced by T-2 toxin. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 T-2 toxin is known to induce apoptosis in mammalian cells. The mechanism of apoptosis induced by T-2 toxin has been proposed to be linked with oxidative stress and mitochondrial pathway.

Chronic stress physically spares but functionally impairs innate-like invariant T cells
Cell Reports, 2021 Summary: The deleterious effects of psychological stress on mainstream T lymphocytes are well documented. However, how stress impacts innate-like T cells is unclear.

miR200-regulated CXCL12β promotes fibroblast heterogeneity and immunosuppression in ovarian cancers
Nature Communications, 2018 Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are an important part of the tumor microenvironment. Here the authors characterize four subsets of CAFs across human samples of ovarian cancer subtypes and show in the mesenchymal subtype a specific CAF-S1 population ...
