Large post-liquefaction deformation of sand: Mechanisms and modeling considering water absorption in shearing and seismic wave conditions

open access: yesUnderground Space
Large deformation of sand due to soil liquefaction is a major cause for seismic damage. In this study, the mechanisms and modeling of large post-liquefaction deformation of sand considering the significant influence of water absorption in shearing and ...

Exon 7 splicing of ERα predicts poor prognosis and increases phenotypic heterogeneity in luminal a subtype breast cancer

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
ERα splice variant ERα∆7 lacks the C‐terminus, and its expression may change phenotypes of breast cancers. Our results showed that ERα∆7 is found in the luminal A subtype, and elevated ERα∆7 levels are linked to improved cell survival with lower proliferation and migration.

Establishing an assay to evaluate d‐amino acid oxidase enzyme kinetics and inhibition using WST‐8 redox dye

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study investigated a novel WST‐8‐based assay for evaluating d‐Amino acid oxidase (DAO) inhibitors. We confirmed its effectiveness using known inhibitors and found that uremic toxins possess relatively weak inhibitory activity compared to existing drugs.

Impact of Fiber Treatment on the Oil Absorption Characteristics of Plant Fibers

open access: yesBioResources, 2016
Most plant fibers are good sorbents of oil; however, synthetic sorbents have a much higher sorption capacity (SC) than plant fibers. This study evaluated the effect of fiber treatments, specifically hot-water treatment and mercerization, on the ...

Screening and epitope characterization of Nidogen‐2‐specific nanobodies

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Camel immunization and phage display were employed to generate high‐affinity VHH nanobodies against Nidogen‐2. After library construction, biopanning, ELISA screening, sequencing, and recombinant expression, selected nanobodies were purified and characterized, leading to the preliminary exploration of a nanobody‐based sandwich ELISA for specific ...

Effects of Potassium Supply in Nutrient Solution on Water and Nutrient Absorption of Substrate-Grown Tomato Plants

open access: yesHorticulturae
Potassium (K+) functions as a critical “regulator” and “quality element” in plants, with its physiological roles varying across developmental stages. To clarify the effects of different K+ amounts in nutrient solution on water and nutrient absorption ...

Matrix metalloproteinase‐9 regulates cell adhesion and membrane protrusive activity of ovarian cancer cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Matrix metalloproteinase‐9 (MMP9) drives ovarian cancer progression. Using MMP9‐null cells (M9‐KO) created from ovarian cancer cells, we found MMP9 loss did not block Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF)‐driven E‐cadherin dissolution or EMT but delayed and reduced EGF‐driven membrane protrusions. Transient MMP9 re‐expression drove membrane protrusion.

Alteration of Water Absorption Coefficient of Spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) due to Thermal Modification

open access: yesDrvna Industrija, 2011
The aim of the investigations was to evaluate the infl uence of a thermal modifi cation on the water absorption behaviour of spruce (Picea abies(L.) Karst.).
