Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

AR-13, a Celecoxib Derivative, Directly Kills Francisella In Vitro and Aids Clearance and Mouse Survival In Vivo

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Francisella tularensis (F. tularensis) is the causative agent of tularemia and is classified as a Tier 1 select agent. No licensed vaccine is currently available in the United States and treatment of tularemia is confined to few antibiotics.

Interface stability, interface fluctuations, and the Gibbs-Thomson relation in motility-induced phase separations

open access: yes, 2016
Minimal models of self-propelled particles with short-range volume exclusion interactions have been shown to exhibit signatures of phase separation.

A synthetic benzoxazine dimer derivative targets c‐Myc to inhibit colorectal cancer progression

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Benzoxazine dimer derivatives bind to the bHLH‐LZ region of c‐Myc, disrupting c‐Myc/MAX complexes, which are evaluated from SAR analysis. This increases ubiquitination and reduces cellular c‐Myc. Impairing DNA repair mechanisms is shown through proteomic analysis.

The Rational Design and Biological Mechanisms of Nanoradiosensitizers

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2020
Radiotherapy (RT) has been widely used for cancer treatment. However, the intrinsic drawbacks of RT, such as radiotoxicity in normal tissues and tumor radioresistance, promoted the development of radiosensitizers.

Screening for lung cancer: A systematic review of overdiagnosis and its implications

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Low‐dose computed tomography (CT) screening for lung cancer may increase overdiagnosis compared to no screening, though the risk is likely low versus chest X‐ray. Our review of 8 trials (84 660 participants) shows added costs. Further research with strict adherence to modern nodule management strategies may help determine the extent to which ...

Investigations of High Rate Capability and High Temperature Performance for Nano-Sized Porous LiAlxMn2-xO4 (x=0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15) Cathode Material

open access: yesInternational Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2012
Porous LiAlxMn2-xO4 (x=0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15) nanoparticles were synthesized by sol-gel method. Differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis (DSC/TGA) were applied to determine the phase transition temperature and the decomposition ...

Dual targeting of RET and SRC synergizes in RET fusion‐positive cancer cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Despite the strong activity of selective RET tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), resistance of RET fusion‐positive (RET+) lung cancer and thyroid cancer frequently occurs and is mainly driven by RET‐independent bypass mechanisms. Son et al. show that SRC TKIs significantly inhibit PAK and AKT survival signaling and enhance the efficacy of RET TKIs in ...

Noninvasive monitoring of changes in intracranial fluid and tissue composition

open access: yesBiomedical Engineering Advances
Continuous assessment of changes in the fluid and tissue composition of the brain, as they occur with certain space-occupying disorders, is currently not possible.

An interface element based on the partition of unity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
An alternative interface finite element is developed. By using the partition of unity property of finite element shape functions, discontinuous shape functions are added to the standard finite element basis.
