Synthesis and telomeric G-quadruplex-stabilizing ability of macrocyclic hexaoxazoles bearing three side chains by Ma, Yue, Iida, Keisuke, Sasaki, Shogo, Hirokawa, Takatsugu, Heddi, Brahim, Nagasawa, Kazuo, Phan, Anh Tuân

“…Here, we describe the synthesis of a new series of macrocyclic hexaoxazole-type G4 ligand (6OTD) bearing three side chains. One of these ligands, 5b, stabilizes telomeric G4 preferentially over the G4-forming DNA sequences of c-kit and K-ras, due to the interaction of its piperazinylalkyl side chain with the groove of telomeric G4.…”

Load‑bearing behaviors of sandwich plates with non‑uniformly distributed grid cores : Static compression and bending by Hao, Ning, Wang, Youlong, Song, Yiheng, Ruan, Sihan, Quanjin, Ma, Wang, Ziying

“…Under bending loading, most NUGPs experience local failure at the loading head, while the specific category surpassing GPs undergoes shear buckling in longer grid walls. (3) Deformation modes of the core layer, mechanical analysis, thin plate buckling theory, and equivalent bending stiffness calculations elucidate the load-bearing mechanisms of NUGPs. These findings enhance topology optimization research for sandwich plates, provide guidance for grid wall arrangements under different loading conditions, and offer insights for designing lightweight sandwich structures.…”
