Effect of Particle Breakage and Shape on the Mechanical Behaviors of Granular Materials by Yongxin Wang, Shengjun Shao, Zhi Wang

“…The conclusion is as follows: (1) The effect of shape parameters on shear strength can be simulated using the smoothness index Fd. (2) Compared with spherical particles, irregular-shaped particles lead to a decrease in the number of strong force chains. Moreover, more coordination numbers are needed to maintain a stable configuration, and the shear strength is improved.…”

Fasting Upregulates PPAR𝛼 Target Genes in Brain and Influences Pituitary Hormone Expression in a PPAR𝛼 Dependent Manner by Bettina König, Christine Rauer, Susann Rosenbaum, Corinna Brandsch, Klaus Eder, Gabriele I. Stangl

“…Here we demonstrate that fasting of rats increased mRNA concentrations of typical PPAR𝛼 target genes implicated in 𝛽-oxidation of fatty acids (acyl-CoA oxidase, carnitine palmitoyltransferase-1, medium chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase) and ketogenesis (mitochondrial 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA synthase) in pituitary gland and partially also in frontal cortex and diencephalon compared to nonfasted animals. These data strongly indicate that fasting activates PPAR𝛼 in brain and pituitary gland. …”
