Why exercise builds muscles
Muscles sense internally generated and externally applied forces, responding to these in a coordinated hierarchical manner at different timescales. The center of the basic unit of the muscle, the sarcomeric M-band, is perfectly...

Separation and Selective Formation of Fullerene Adducts within an M$^{II}$$_{8}$L$_{6}$ Cage.
The self-assembly of 4-fold-symmetric porphyrins with Fe$^{II}$ or Zn$^{II}$ gave a new cubic M$^{II}$$_{8}$L$_{6}$ cage framework with electron-deficient walls. This cage bound C$_{60}$-indene or C$_{60}$-anthracene bisadducts...

Multifunctional peptide-assembled micelles for simultaneously reducing amyloid-β and reactive oxygen species.
The excessive production and deposition of amyloid-β (Aβ) is one of the most important etiologies of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The interaction between Aβ and metal ions produces aberrant reactive oxygen species (ROS), which...

Online Differential Thermal Isotope Analysis of Hydration Water in Minerals by Cavity Ringdown Laser Spectroscopy.
We have developed a new method for measuring the isotopic composition (δ18O and δD) of different types of bonded water (e.g., molecular water, hydroxyl) contained in hydrated minerals by coupling a thermal gravimeter (TG) and a...

Experimental investigation of kinematic pile bending in layered soils using dynamic centrifuge modelling
This research provides an insight into the previously unexplored aspects of kinematic pile bending, especially for large-intensity earthquakes where the soil behaviour is highly non-linear. In this study, a series of...

Gigahertz measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution using directly modulated lasers
AbstractMeasurement-device-independent quantum key distribution (MDI-QKD) is a technique for quantum-secured communication that eliminates all detector side-channels, although is currently...

Indole
Indole is a key environmental cue that is used by many organisms. Based on its biochemistry, we suggest indole is used so universally, and by such different organisms, because it derives from the metabolism of tryptophan, a...

Further Evidence for the Minifilament-eruption Scenario for Solar Polar Coronal Jets
Abstract We examine a sampling of 23 polar-coronal-hole jets. We first identified the jets in soft X-ray (SXR) images from the X-ray telescope (XRT) on the Hinode spacecraft, over...

Cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease
BACKGROUND: The quality of life (QoL) of informal caregivers of people with Parkinson's disease (PD) (PwP) can be affected by the caring role. Because of cognitive symptoms and diminished activities of daily living, in addition...

On species delimitation, hybridization and population structure of cassava whitefly in Africa.
The Bemisia cassava whitefly complex includes species that cause severe crop damage through vectoring cassava viruses in eastern Africa. Currently, this whitefly complex is divided into species and subgroups (SG) based on very...

Biomarkers of cardiovascular risk across phenotypes of osteoarthritis.
BACKGROUND: The objective of this study was to explore the associations between ultrasonographic and radiographic joint scores and levels of arterial CVD risk markers in patients with osteoarthritis (OA). Secondly, to compare...

Progression of Neuropsychiatric Symptoms over Time in an Incident Parkinson's Disease Cohort (ICICLE-PD).
BACKGROUND: Cross-sectional studies have identified that the prevalence of neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) in Parkinson's disease (PD) ranges from 70-89%. However, there are few longitudinal studies determining the impact of NPS...
