Synthesis and Characterization of a Holmium 2,2′-bipyridine-5,5′-dicarboxylate MOF: Towards the Construction of a Suitable Holmium Carrier
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019-02)Based on the 2,2′-bipyridine-5,5′-dicarboxylic acid ligand (H₂bpdc), a new metal-organic framework using holmium as the coordinating metal site was synthesized through a solvothermal reaction. The 3D compound {[Ho₂(bPdc)₃(DMF)₂] ... -
In Vivo Assessment of Increased Oxidation of Branched-Chain Amino Acids in Glioblastoma
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019-01-23)Altered branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) metabolism is a distinctive feature of various cancers and plays an important role in sustaining tumor proliferation and aggressiveness. Despite the therapeutic and diagnostic ... -
Stellar Tidal Disruption Events in General Relativity
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2019-02-12)A tidal disruption event (TDE) ensues when a star passes too close to a supermassive black hole (SMBH) in a galactic center, and is ripped apart by its tidal field. The gaseous debris produced in a TDE can power a bright ... -
Characterization of Caenorhabditis elegans Nucleosome Assembly Protein 1 Uncovers the Role of Acidic Tails in Histone Binding
(Amer Chemical Soc, 2018-12-06)Nucleosome assembly proteins (Naps) influence chromatin dynamics by directly binding to histones. Here we provide a comprehensive structural and biochemical analysis of a Nap protein from Caenorhabditis elegans (CeNap1). ... -
Halide-Free Neodymium Phosphate Based Catalyst for Highly cis-1,4 Selective Polymerization of Dienes
(Royal Soc Chemistry, 2019-01-24)Neodymium-based Ziegler-Natta type catalytic systems are known to produce polydienes with high cis-1,4 content. It is generally believed that in Ziegler-Natta catalytic systems, a halide or pseudohalide, whether in the ... -
Measurement of Angular and Momentum Distributions of Charged Particles within and Around Jets in Pb+Pb and pp Collisions at √{sₙₙ} = 5.02 TeV with ATLAS at the LHC
(Elsevier Science B.V., 2019-01-22)Studies of the fragmentation of jets into charged particles in heavy-ion collisions can help in understanding the mechanism of jet quenching by the hot and dense QCD matter created in such collisions, the quark-gluon plasma. ... -
Smart MRI Agents for Detecting Extracellular Events In Vivo: Progress and Challenges
(MDPI, 2019-02-09)Many elegant inorganic designs have been developed to aid medical imaging. We know better now how to improve imaging due to the enormous efforts made by scientists in probe design and other fundamental sciences, including ... -
Two ABC Transporters and a Periplasmic Metallochaperone Participate in Zinc Acquisition in Paracoccus Denitrificans
(Amer Chemical Soc, 2018-10-24)Bacteria must acquire the essential element zinc from extremely limited environments, and this function is performed largely by ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporters. These systems rely on a periplasmic or extracellular ... -
IL-1 Induces p62/SQSTM1 and Autophagy in ERα⁺/PR⁺ BCa Cell Lines Concomitant with ERα and PR Repression, Conferring an ERα⁻/PR⁻ BCa-Like Phenotype
(Wiley, 2019-02)Estrogen receptor α (ERα)ˡᵒʷ/⁻ tumors are associated with breast cancer (BCa) endocrine resistance, where ERα low tumors show a poor prognosis and a molecular profile similar to triple negative BCa tumors. Interleukin-1 ... -
Nociceptor Translational Profiling Reveals the Ragulator-Rag GTPase Complex as a Critical Generator of Neuropathic Pain
(Soc Neuroscience, 2019-01-16)Nociceptors, sensory neurons in the DRG that detect damaging or potentially damaging stimuli, are key drivers of neuropathic pain. Injury to these neurons causes activation of translation regulation signaling, including ... -
First Detection of the GI-Type of Intrinsic Alignments of Galaxies Using the Selfcalibration Method in a Photometric Galaxy Survey
(Institute of Physics, 2020-08-05)Weak gravitational lensing is one of the most promising cosmological probes to constrain dark matter, dark energy, and the nature of gravity at cosmic scales. Intrinsic alignments (IAs) of galaxies have been recognized as ... -
Cyclophilin D Deficiency Protects Against the Development of Mitochondrial ROS and Cellular Inflammation in Aorta
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2018-12-13)Introduction: Inflammation and oxidative stress are closely correlated in the pathology of cardiovascular disease. Mitochondrial cyclophilin D (CypD), the important modulator for mPTP opening, is increasingly recognized ... -
Spin Current Generation and Relaxation in a Quenched Spin-Orbit-Coupled Bose-Einstein Condensate
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019-01)Understanding the effects of spin-orbit coupling (SOC) and many-body interactions on spin transport is important in condensed matter physics and spintronics. This topic has been intensively studied for spin carriers such ... -
