Tunneling Nanotubes and Tumor Microtubes in Cancer [PDF]

open access: yesCancers, 2020
Intercellular communication among cancer cells and their microenvironment is crucial to disease progression. The mechanisms by which communication occurs between distant cells in a tumor matrix remain poorly understood. In the last two decades, experimental evidence from different groups proved the existence of thin membranous tubes that interconnect ...

Suppression of Tunneling into Multiwall Carbon Nanotubes [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2001
We have studied tunneling of electrons into multi-wall carbon nanotubes. Nanotube/electrode interfaces with low transparency as well as nanotube/nanotube junctions created with atomic force microscope manipulation have been used. The tunneling conductance goes to zero as the temperature and bias are reduced, and the functional form is consistent with a

Super-poissonian noise, negative differential conductance, and relaxation effects in transport through molecules, quantum dots and nanotubes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We consider charge transport through a nanoscopic object, e.g. single molecules, short nanotubes, or quantum dots, that is weakly coupled to metallic electrodes.

High-Resolution Insights Into the in vitro Developing Blood-Brain Barrier: Novel Morphological Features of Endothelial Nanotube Function

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2021
High-resolution electron microscopy (HREM) imaging of the in vitro blood-brain barrier (BBB), is a promising modality for investigating the dynamic morphological interplay underpinning BBB development.

Perspectives of cellular communication through tunneling nanotubes in cancer cells and the connection to radiation effects

open access: yesRadiation Oncology, 2019
Direct cell-to-cell communication is crucial for the survival of cells in stressful situations such as during or after radiation exposure. This communication can lead to non-targeted effects, where non-treated or non-infected cells show effects induced ...

Tuberculosis Exacerbates HIV-1 Infection through IL-10/STAT3-Dependent Tunneling Nanotube Formation in Macrophages

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Summary: The tuberculosis (TB) bacillus, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), and HIV-1 act synergistically; however, the mechanisms by which Mtb exacerbates HIV-1 pathogenesis are not well known.

Nanoscale atomic waveguides with suspended carbon nanotubes

open access: yes, 2005
We propose an experimentally viable setup for the realization of one-dimensional ultracold atom gases in a nanoscale magnetic waveguide formed by single doubly-clamped suspended carbon nanotubes.

Nanospintronics with carbon nanotubes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
One of the actual challenges of spintronics is the realization of a spin-transistor allowing to control spin transport through an electrostatic gate. In this review, we report on different experiments which demonstrate a gate control of spin transport in

Effect of Graphene and Carbon Nanotubes on the Thermal Conductivity of WC–Co Cemented Carbide

open access: yesMetals, 2019
In recent years, it has been found that the service life of cemented carbide shield machine tools used in uneven soft and hard strata is substantially reduced in engineering practice. The study found that thermal stress is the main reason for the failure
