BACKGROUND: The standard treatment for patients with pemphigus vulgaris has long consisted of high-dose glucocorticoids. Studies regarding the use of methotrexate in pemphigus vulgaris date back to 1968, but few have quantitatively described a steroid-sparing effect conferred by methotrexate. OBJECTIVES: We sought to…
Cu2ZnGeS4 (CZGS) and Cu2ZnGeSe4 (CZGSe) single crystalline nanowire arrays have been prepared via a convenient one-step nanoconfined solvothermal approach. The porous anodic aluminum oxide was used as a morphology directing template by offering nanospace in the AAO pores for confined solvothermal reaction. The structu…
Solvent effects have a significant impact upon the optoelectronic properties of coumarin 343, which are mainly exploited in the solution phase for a diverse range of applications, including lasers and dye-sensitized solar cells. The influence of solvation on the structure–property relationships for coumarin 343 are an…
Intermediate amyloidogenic states along the amyloid β peptide (Aβ) aggregation pathway have been shown to be linked to neurotoxicity. To shed more light on the different structures that may arise during Aβ aggregation, we here investigate surfactant-induced Aβ aggregation. This process leads to co-aggregates featuring…
Mitigation of type-I ELMs with n = 2 fields on JET with ITER-like wall, Liang, Y., Lomas, P., Nunes, I., Gryaznevich, M., Beurskens, M.N.A., Brezinsek, S., Coenen, J.W., Denner, P., Eich, Th., Frassinetti, L., Gerasimov, S., Harting, D., Jachmich, S., Meigs, A., Pearson, J., Rack, M., Saarelma, S., Sieglin, B., Yang,…
The zymogen prothrombin is composed of fragment 1 containing a Gla domain and kringle-1, fragment 2 containing kringle-2, and a protease domain containing A and B chains. The prothrombinase complex assembled on the surface of platelets converts prothrombin to thrombin by cleaving at Arg-271 and Arg-320. The three-dime…
Abnormal assemblies formed by misfolded superoxide dismutase-1 (SOD1) proteins are the likely cause of SOD1-linked familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (fALS) and may be involved in some cases of sporadic ALS. To analyze the structure of the insoluble SOD1 amyloid fibrils, we first used limited proteolysis followed…
Abstract This study is part of the ongoing national Bioenergy Research Programme in Finland. The study looked into the quality of chips made of logging residues composed predominantly of spruce wood. In addition, the productivity of the Evolution 910R chipper, the MOHA chipper truck, and the Morbark 1200 tub grinder w…
The adsorption of cysteine onto the intrinsically chiral gold surface, Au(321)(R,S), was investigated by means of a periodic supercell density functional theory approach. The results are compared to those obtained at the same level of theory with a nonchiral surface having the same terrace orientation, the Au(111) sur…
The coordination chemistry of a flexible N-donor ligand di(3-pyridylmethyl)amine (dpma) with silver salts has been investigated. Six new silver coordination polymers, namely, [Ag(dpma)(H 2 O)](NO 3 ) ( 1 ), [Ag(dpma)(CF 3 CO 2 )]·1/2H 2 O ( 2 ), [Ag(dpma)](CF 3 SO 3 )·1/2H 2 O ( 3 ), [Ag(dpma)](BF 4 )·3/2H 2 O ( 4 ),…
One of the primary pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer’s diseases (AD) is amyloid-β (Aβ) aggregation and its extracellular accumulation. However, current in vitro Aβ aggregation assays require time-consuming and labor-intensive steps, which delay the process of drug discovery and understanding the mechanism of Aβ indu…
The skin is a dynamic organ whose complex material properties are capable of withstanding continuous mechanical stress while accommodating insults and organism growth. Moreover, synchronized hair cycles, comprising waves of hair growth, regression and rest, are accompanied by dramatic fluctuations in skin thickness in…
Nanoscale tribology is an active and rapidly developing area of research that poses fundamental scientific questions that, if answered, may offer great technological potential in the fields of friction, wear, and lubrication. When considering nanoscale material's junctions, surface commensurability often plays a cruci…
In this multiscale study, four robust zirconium oxide based metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) were examined using powerful molecular simulation tools as well as indispensable full-scale PSA system modeling to determine their potential for H 2 purification. Grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) and molecular dynamics (MD) s…
Potentials routinely used in atomistic molecular dynamics simulations are not always suitable for modeling systems at coarse-grained resolution. For example, in the calculation of traditional torsion angle potentials, numerical instability is often encountered in the case of very flexible molecules. To improve the sta…
The bright side of triple double bonds: Two series of stable tridentate cyclometalated PtII and AuIII allenylidene complexes were found to exhibit many functionalities, such as long-lived excited states, self-assembly into supramolecular nanostructures, DNA and nucleus binding and cellular imaging capabilities (see fi…
The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility and advantages of the dual delivery of bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) from nano-composite scaffolds (PLGA/PCL/nHA) loaded with vascular stents (PLCL/Col/nHA) for large bone defect regeneration in rabbit mandibles.…
Using first-principles and Wannier function methods, we systematically calculate the electronic band structure and topological edge states of single bilayer Bi (111) film (BL-Bi) as a function of strain and perpendicular electric field to investigate the effects induced by lattice mismatch and interfacial charge trans…
This study details density functional theory calculations on all the polymorphs of the binary oxides of antimony (Sb 2 O 3, Sb 2 O 4, and Sb 2 O 5 ) to assess the electronic structures and differences in bonding between Sb III and Sb V ions with oxygen. The results show that lone-pair formation is via a similar mechan…
In the present review, we report the linear viscoelasticity of suspensions and polymers filled with nano-size particles of different aspect ratios and structuration . The viscoelastic behaviour of liquid suspension filled with well-dispersed and stabilised particles proves that the Brownian motion is the dominant mech…
