BACKGROUND Smooth muscle cells (SMCs) substantially contribute to the development of
atherosclerosis through a process called “phenotypic switching.” Our previous work …

This work reports on the synthesis and characterization of five enantiomeric pairs of
isostructural 3D metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) with the general formula {[Ln2(μ4-tar)2(μ-tar)(…

We have studied the carbonation process in different types of mortars, with and without
pozzolana or air-entraining additives, subject to a CO 2 -rich atmosphere and compared the …

The Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) is designed to measure the scale of
baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) in the clustering of matter over a larger volume than the …

… Intramolecular Br···Br interaction has a small destabilizing contribution from E cl (0.50 kcal/mol)
and a comparatively large stabilizing component from E xc (−17.82 kcal/mol), together …

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have emerged as mediators of cellular communication, in part
via the delivery of associated microRNAs (miRNAs), small non-coding RNAs that regulate …

A family of ten novel isostructural LnIII complexes based on the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory
drug diclofenac, with the general formula [Ln2(dicl)6(MeOH)2(H2O)2] [LnIII = Pr (1), Nd (2)…

Infrared thermography is an essential tool for evaluating Urban Heat Islands (UHI). Hand-held
thermal cameras, however, are only designed for measuring surface temperatures. Near-…

In the present work, we modified the surface morphology of 3D porous ceramic scaffolds by
incorporating strontium phosphate (SrP) hollow nano-/microspheres with potential …

… D and E, TMZ induced cell apoptosis was detected after 72 h treatment with TMZ by western
blot analysis. F–H, LN229 cells were transiently transfected with NC or miR-146a inhibitor …
