The effects of micro-fracture on the structural responses of concrete by Yip, Woon kwong.

“…A body of concrete in a structure which has experienced load history would have sustained certain degree of micro-fracture damage, and hence its constitutive state would have being altered. Diagnostic appraisal of such a structure investigates the ability of the in-place concrete to sustain further loading. …”

Epigenetic age acceleration and methylation differences in IgG4-related cholangitis and primary sclerosing cholangitis by Noble, A, Motta, R, Cabras, S, Flores, BM, Nowak, J, Glapa-Nowak, A, Geremia, A, Satsangi, J, Culver, E

“…Background: IgG4-related cholangitis (IgG4-SC) and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) are chronic fibro-inflammatory hepatobiliary conditions, with genetic, environmental, and immunologic risk factors, in which epigenetic alterations may provide insights into pathophysiology and novel biomarkers. …”

Effects of clozapine-N-oxide and compound 21 on sleep in laboratory mice by Traut, J, Mengual, JP, Meijer, E, McKillop, L, Alfonsa, H, Hoerder-Suabedissen, A, Song, SH, Fehér, KD, Riemann, D, Molnar, Z, Akerman, CJ, Vyazovskiy, VV, Krone, LB

“…Here, we show that intraperitoneal injections of commonly used CNO doses (1, 5, and 10 mg/kg) alter sleep in wild-type male laboratory mice. Using electroencephalography (EEG) and electromyography (EMG) to analyse sleep, we found a dose-dependent suppression of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, changes in EEG spectral power during non-REM (NREM) sleep, and altered sleep architecture in a pattern previously reported for clozapine. …”

Microscale advection governs microbial growth and oxygen consumption in macroporous aggregates by Shen, Rachel, Borer, Benedict, Ciccarese, Davide, Salek, M. Mehdi, Babbin, Andrew R.

“…Recognizing the fundamental role that microbial hotspots play in the Earth system, developing frameworks that predict how their heterogeneous morphology and potential interstitial flows change microbial function and collectively alter global scale fluxes is critical.…”

Soy-derived phytochemical genistein modifies chromatome topology to restrict cancer cell proliferation by Dutta, Bamaprasad, Park, Jung Eun, Qing, Ivan Toh Yi, Kon, Oi Lian, Sze, Siu Kwan

“…After exposure to low-dose genistein for >1 month, MDA-MB-231 cells exhibited stable epigenetic alterations that are analyzed via partial MNase digestion and TMT-based quantitative proteomics. 3177 chromatin-bound proteins are identified with high confidence, including 882 molecules that displayed altered binding topology after cell conditioning with genistein. …”

Oxazolidinone antibiotics impair ex vivo megakaryocyte differentiation from hematopoietic progenitor cells and their maturation into platelets by Milosevic, TV, Vertenoeil, G, Vainchenker, W, Tulkens, PM, Constantinescu, SN, Van Bambeke, F

“…As mitochondrial activity is essential for megakaryocyte differentiation and maturation into platelets, we examined whether oxazolidinones impair these processes ex vivo and alter, in parallel, the activity of mitochondrial cytochrome c-oxidase (CYTOX; enzyme partly encoded by the mitochondrial genome) and cell morphology. …”
