Near-Infrared Fluorescent Molecular Probe for Sensitive Imaging of Keloid by Miao, Qingqing, Yeo, David Chenloong, Wiraja, Christian, Zhang, Jianjian, Ning, Xiaoyu, Xu, Chenjie, Pu, Kanyi

“…As keloid cells have high expression levels of fibroblast activation protein-alpha (FAPα), the probe (FNP1) is designed to have a caged NIR dye and a FAPα-cleavable peptide substrate linked by a self-immolative segment. FNP1 can quickly and specifically turn on its fluorescence at 710 nm by 45-fold in the presence of FAPα, allowing it to effectively recognize keloid cells from normal skin cells. …”

Quorum sensing signalling and activated sludge microbial communities by Tan, Chuan Hao

“…However, defining the relevance of QS in complex, multi-species microbial communities remains one of the greatest challenges for understanding the ecological role of QS in nature. Here, a long-term bioreactor ecology study was performed to address the links between QS, metabolic function, organization and composition of complex microbial consortia of the activated sludge system. …”

Sequential phreatomagmatic eruptions during the lateral propagation of giant dyke swarms by Pryce, E, Cartwright, J, Kirkham, C, Phillips, D

“…The failure of these dykes to erupt magma at surface partly accounts for their long-range propagation. However, the lack of preservation of the upper regions of most terrestrial dykes is a barrier to fully explaining the reasons for this upward arrest below ground level. …”

Scaling of the velocity profile in strongly drag reduced turbulent flows over an oscillating wall by Skote, Martin

“…As a result, logarithmic part is influenced by both velocity scales and the slope of the velocity profile is directly linked to the DR. The theoretically obtained results are verified by data from six previously performed direct numerical simulations (DNSs) of boundary layers over spatial and temporal wall oscillations, with a wide range of resulting DR. …”

The discrete-time second-best dynamic road pricing scheme by Han, Linghui, Wang, David Zhi Wei, Zhu, Chengjuan

“…In this study, we aim to develop a more practical second-best dynamic road pricing scheme implemented on a subset of links, which can drive the traffic evolution towards the desired second-best traffic user equilibrium state from any initial traffic state. …”

Optimizing targeted vaccination across cyber–physical networks: an empirically based mathematical simulation stud by Mones, Enys, Stopczynski, Arkadiusz, Pentland, Alex, Hupert, Nathaniel, Lehmann, Sune

“…Here, we study the digital communication activity of more than 500 individuals along with their person-to-person contacts at a 5-min temporal resolution. We then simulate different disease transmission scenarios on the person-to-person physical contact network to determine whether cyber communication networks can be harnessed to advance the goal of targeted vaccination for a disease spreading on the network of physical proximity. …”

Query lower bounds for log-concave sampling by Chewi, Sinho, de Dios Pont, Jaume, Li, Jerry, Lu, Chen, Narayanan, Shyam

“…In this work, we establish the following query lower bounds: (1) sampling from strongly log-concave and log-smooth distributions in dimension ≥ 2 requires Ω(log) queries, which is sharp in any constant dimension, and (2) sampling from Gaussians in dimension (hence also from general log-concave and log-smooth distributions in dimension) requires Ωe(min( √ log,)) queries, which is nearly sharp for the class of Gaussians. …”
