Enhanced Lightweight Quantum Key Distribution Protocol for Improved Efficiency and Security by Ashutosh Bhatia, Sainath Bitragunta, Kamlesh Tiwari

“…While the focus of this work is on the BB84 protocol, these optimizations are also directly applicable to a broader class of Discrete-Variable QKD (DV-QKD) protocols, such as six-state, B92, and E91, which share a fundamentally similar post-processing structure. This generality highlights the modularity and adaptability of the proposed methods across diverse QKD implementations. …”

Inhibitors of Fatty Acid Synthesis Induce PPARα-Regulated Fatty Acid β-Oxidative Genes: Synergistic Roles of L-FABP and Glucose by Huan Huang, Avery L. McIntosh, Gregory G. Martin, Anca D. Petrescu, Kerstin K. Landrock, Danilo Landrock, Ann B. Kier, Friedhelm Schroeder

“…Binding of TOFA and C75-CoA significantly altered L-FABP secondary structure. High (20 mM) but not physiological (6 mM) glucose conferred on both TOFA and C75 the ability to induce PPARα transcription of the fatty acid β-oxidative enzymes CPT1A, CPT2, and ACOX1 in cultured primary hepatocytes from wild-type (WT) mice. …”
