Reduction of wind-induced vibration of tall buildings using suspended mass pendulums

, 2014
This paper is aimed at the investigation of using suspended mass pendulums to reduce Wind-induced vibration of tall buildings. The tall building is modeled as a shear building with the same floor mass and lateral stiffness for each story, and the ...

Importin 7 mediates the nuclear import of HIV‐1 integrase via a specific interacting interface

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
HIV‐1 integrase enables viral DNA integration into the host genome. By binding to the core domain of the host protein Importin 7 via its C‐terminal domain, the integrase is transported across the nuclear membrane into the nucleus, where integration of the viral genome into host DNA takes place. This translocation is a critical step for subsequent viral

The Effects of Different Amplitude-Dependent Damping Models on Wind-Induced Response of a Tall Building

, 2011
Guangzhou West Tower (GZWT) is the second tallest building in China with 432m height. Based on the 3-D finite element model of this building, a reduced finite element model was first established for the wind-induced vibration analysis in the paper ...

Dose‐dependent hepatotoxicity of hydrogen peroxide in HepG2 cells and its modulation by CYP450 induction

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
NMR metabolomics revealed concentration‐dependent metabolic perturbations in HepG2 cells exposed to H2O2. Rifampicin pretreatment enhanced metabolic competence, attenuated toxin‐induced alterations and produced metabolite profiles more consistent with human liver physiology, supporting the use of CYP450‐induced HepG2 models for improved in vitro ...

Human perception and tolerance of wind-induced building motion

, 2013
Wind-induced building motion can interfere with building occupants’ daily activities and general well-being. However, human perception of motion and tolerance of wind-induced tall building vibration are essentially a subjective assessment.

Accurate and noninvasive prostate cancer detection using plasma‐derived extracellular vesicle RNA

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Plasma extracellular vesicles were captured with WGA‐conjugated magnetic beads and profiled for RNA biomarkers. A three‐RNA panel (NM_024955, NR_047469, and NR_002564) distinguished prostate cancer from healthy controls and benign prostatic hyperplasia, supporting a simple, noninvasive approach to improve prostate cancer detection.

Dynamic characteristics and wind-induced response of two high-rise residential buildings during typhoons

, 2005
Two high-rise residential buildings in Hong Kong, among the tallest in the world, were equipped to monitor their wind-induced dynamic response. The effects of typhoon Imbudo and typhoon Dujuan on the buildings are presented in detail. Upcrossing analyses

Avidin is evolutionarily conserved in fish but dispensable for development and resistance against Streptococcus agalactiae in zebrafish

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The presence of biotin‐binding avidin proteins in fish and their biological significance are poorly characterized. We cataloged fish avidins and demonstrate that they are widely present and evolutionarily conserved. We created avd knockout zebrafish and show that zebavidin is dispensable for development and that resistance of avd knockout embryos in ...

GelMA‐based 3D spheroids recapitulate transcriptomic and functional hallmarks of myeloid sarcoma

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
GelMA 5% hydrogels support the formation of myeloid leukemia spheroids that recapitulate MS‐specific features, including G1 arrest, apoptosis, and ECM‐driven transcriptomic reprogramming. The 3D model mimicked soft‐tissue‐like stiffness and oxygen conditions, and transcriptomic convergence with primary MS samples confirmed its utility as a preclinical ...
