X-ray induced electronic structure change in CuIr$_2$S$_4$

open access: yes, 2011
The electronic structure of CuIr$_2$S$_4$ has been investigated using various bulk-sensitive x-ray spectroscopic methods near the Ir $L_3$-edge: resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS), x-ray absorption spectroscopy in the partial fluorescence yield ...

Peptide‐based ligand antagonists block a Vibrio cholerae adhesin

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The structure of a peptide‐binding domain of the Vibrio cholerae adhesin FrhA was solved by X‐ray crystallography, revealing how the inhibitory peptide AGYTD binds tightly at its Ca2+‐coordinated pocket. Structure‐guided design incorporating D‐amino acids enhanced binding affinity, providing a foundation for developing anti‐adhesion therapeutics ...

X-Ray Fluorescence Experiments with Polarized X Rays [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in X-ray Analysis, 1974
AbstractTwo methods of obtaining polarized x-rays for fluorescence experiments are discussed. Compton scattering from a low-Z scatterer is the usual method used in such experiments. The polarization of x-rays undergoing anomalous Borrmann transmission in a dislocation-free crystal is also described and preliminary results are presented.

Unraveling heme detoxification in the malaria parasite by in situ correlative X-ray fluorescence microscopy and soft X-ray tomography

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
A key drug target for malaria has been the detoxification pathway of the iron-containing molecule heme, which is the toxic byproduct of hemoglobin digestion. The cornerstone of heme detoxification is its sequestration into hemozoin crystals, but how this

Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in

X-Ray Fluorescence Computed Tomography With Polycapillary Focusing

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2014
Liposomal iodine nanoparticles (LINPs) have a long half-life and provide an excellent intravascular contrast. The nanoparticles can be functionalized as molecular probes for biological targets to facilitate numerous preclinical studies for translation ...

Penetrating the Deep Cover of Compton Thick Active Galactic Nuclei [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We analyze observations obtained with the Chandra X-ray Observatory of bright Compton thick active galactic nuclei (AGNs), those with column densities in excess of 1.5 x 10^{24} cm^{-2} along the lines of sight.

Adaptaquin is selectively toxic to glioma stem cells through disruption of iron and cholesterol metabolism

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Adaptaquin selectively kills glioma stem cells while sparing differentiated brain cells. Transcriptomic and proteomic analyses show Adaptaquin disrupts iron and cholesterol homeostasis, with iron chelation amplifying cytotoxicity via cholesterol depletion, mitochondrial dysfunction, and elevated reactive oxygen species.
