Theoretical and Experimental Investigations of Shape Memory Characteristics of Miscible Rubber-Wax Blends [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Shape Memory Polymers (SMPs) are smart materials capable of transforming back to their intended shape and therefore, are used to replicate biomimetic functionalities in synthetic materials.

Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...

Inhibitor-Wax Interactions and Wax Crystallization: New Experimental Approaches and Techniques

open access: yes, 2018
Issues related to wax crystallization are one of the major challenges faced during crude oil production. Wax inhibitors and pour point depressants (PPD) are in common use for wax prevention, as they can delay gelling and ensure low enough crude oil ...

Modeling of solid wax content in wax deposits

open access: yes, 2022
The problem of wax deposition in crude oil pipelines is one of the important concerns for flow assurance in recent 50 years. Herein, the solid wax content in wax deposit was modeled with the precipitation enthalpy and precipitation entropy based on the ...

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

Impact of Concave and Convex Solid Surfaces By Liquid-Like Projectiles

open access: yesTikrit Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2007
A theoretical and experimental investigation of the normal impact of a flat-ended liquid slug onto ductile cylindrical solid targets is presented. The liquid slug is simulated by wax which is known to behave as a liquid in high speed impact situations ...

The microbiome in human skin aging

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐related skin changes encompass the well‐known visible phenotypic alterations, together with microbiome dysbiosis and a series of molecular aging hallmarks. These hallmarks characterize not only a fully stablished aged phenotype but also the skin aging process itself.

Golgi enzymes are retrieved from the plasma membrane to the trans‐Golgi network

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Golgi enzymes are traditionally considered resident proteins retained within the Golgi apparatus. Here, we demonstrate that a subset transiently reaches the cell surface and is subsequently retrieved to the trans‐Golgi network via retrograde transport. Using a nanobody‐based toolkit, we uncover a dynamic trafficking cycle of several Golgi enzymes.

γ-Aminobutyric acid induces transcriptional changes contributing to salt tolerance in creeping bentgrass

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2020
γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) regulates plant tolerance to abiotic stresses; however, a transcriptomic change and key stress-related genes induced by GABA have not been investigated in plants during a prolonged period of salt stress.
