A novel pulse multiplication circuit for reducing harmonic distortion of 12 pulse rectifiers in aircraft electrical power systems by Rohollah Abdollahi, Ahmad Salemnia, Morteza Abdolhosseini

“…The novel PMC consists of two TIPRs (TIPR1 and TIPR2), an auxiliary single‐phase diode bridge (including four diodes D1 to D4), and two auxiliary diodes D21 and D22, which are connected directly to the output terminal of the DBRs (DBR1 and DBR2). The simulation and experimental results confirm the high capability of the proposed PMC to reduce the harmonic distortion of the input current, so that by using the proposed PMC, the input current is almost sinusoidal and the THD of the input current is less than 3%. …”

Blockade of NR2A-Containing NMDA Receptors Induces Tau Phosphorylation in Rat Hippocampal Slices by Julie Allyson, Eve Dontigny, Yves Auberson, Michel Cyr, Guy Massicotte

“…This effect seemed to be Ser199 specific as there was no increase in phosphorylation at Ser262 and Ser409 residues located in the microtubule-binding and C-terminal domains of Tau proteins, respectively. From a mechanistic perspective, our study revealed that blockade of NR2A-containing receptors influences Tau phosphorylation probably by increasing calcium influx into neurons, which seems to rely on accumulation of new NR1/NR2B receptors in neuronal membranes and could involve the cyclin-dependent kinase 5 pathway.…”

Delineating Molecular Mechanisms of Squamous Tissue Homeostasis and Neoplasia: Focus on p63 by Kathryn E. King, Linan Ha, Tura Camilli, Wendy C. Weinberg

“…The p53/p63/p73 family is expressed as multiple protein isoforms due to a combination of alternative promoter usage and C-terminal alternative splicing. These isoforms can mimic or interfere with one another, and their balance ultimately determines biological outcome in a context-dependent manner. …”

Stochastic Modelling and Simulation of Free Radical Polymerization of Styrene in Microchannels using a Hybrid Gillespie Algorithm by Edward Uchechukwu Iwuchukwu, Ardson dos Santos Junior Vianna

“…In addition, especially in pilot experimentations, a micro or milli-reactor has been known widely to be efficient in monitoring the microstructural end-use features or properties of the polymer as the chain propagates and ultimately terminates. However, the limitations posed by using micro or milli-reactors in process intensification such as clogging of pores can be a bottleneck when tracking the common phenomena associated with FRP such as cage, gel, and glass effects. …”

Insights into the Allosteric Regulation of Human Hsp90 Revealed by NMR Spectroscopy by Tjaša Goričan, Simona Golič Grdadolnik

“…One of the possibilities is allosteric regulation by its natural allosteric modulators—nucleotides, co-chaperones and client proteins—and synthetic small-molecule allosteric modulators, such as those targeting the middle domain or the C-terminal domain (CTD) of Hsp90. Since no experimentally determined structure of a small-molecule allosteric modulator bound to the CTD of human Hsp90 has yet been obtained, the challenge for a structure-based design of allosteric modulators remains. …”
