Biophysical Regulation of Nuclear Architecture in Human Keratinocytes.
(Queen Mary University of London, 2021-02-08)Epidermal homeostasis is an essential process in the maintenance of healthy skin, and it is regulated by the fine tuning of the proliferation and terminal differentiation of keratinocytes. Various biochemical and biophysical ... -
Biophysical screening methods for extracellular domain peptide receptors, application to natriuretic peptide receptor C ligands.
(2019-06)Endothelium-derived C-type natriuretic peptide possesses cytoprotective and anti-atherogenic functions that regulate vascular homeostasis. The vasoprotective effects of C-type natriuretic peptide are somewhat mediated by ... -
The biopolitics of the migration-development nexus: Governing migration in the UK
While politicians in the United Kingdom (UK) have engaged in fractious debate over the appropriate way of responding to the myriad issues arising from the so-called migration or refugee crisis in recent years, there is an ... -
Bioreactor With Electrically Deformable Curved Membranes for Mechanical Stimulation of Cell Cultures.
(2020)Physiologically relevant in vitro models of stretchable biological tissues, such as muscle, lung, cardiac and gastro-intestinal tissues, should mimic the mechanical cues which cells are exposed to in their dynamic ... -
BioSec: A Biometric Authentication Framework for Secure and Private Communication among Edge Devices in IoT and Industry 4.0
(IEEE, 2020-11-16)With the rapid increase in the usage areas of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, it brings challenges such as security and privacy. One way to ensure these in IoT-based systems is user authentication. Until today, user ... -
Biosorption and Biomineralization of U(VI) by the marine bacterium Idiomarina loihiensis MAH1: effect of background electrolyte and pH.
(PLoS, 2014)The main goal of this study is to compare the effects of pH, uranium concentration, and background electrolyte (seawater and NaClO4 solution) on the speciation of uranium(VI) associated with the marine bacterium Idiomarina ... -
The biosystematics of British aquatic larval orthocladiinae (diptera: chironomidae)
(1979)The relationships and subfamilial classification of the Chironomidae (Insecta: iptera, ematocera) are discussed and some comments made on the ecological significance of the range of larval habitats found in the family. ... -
Biot's theory of propagation of elastic waves in a fluid-saturated porous solid revisited: introduction of non-zero boundary slip velocity
This paper has been withdrawn by the author due to the physically inconsistent assumption of constant slip velocity, instead, see a new improved model - physics/0201045. -
Biotic invasions can alter nutritional composition of zooplankton communities
(2015-10-01)© 2015 Nordic Society Oikos. Ecologists and ecosystem managers often base their understanding of trophic dynamics on consumer and resource biomass. However, the factors that alter the relative nutritional value of resources ... -
Biotoxicity of Halide Perovskites in Mice.
(2023-09-13)Halide perovskites are crystalline semiconductors with exceptional optoelectronic properties, rapidly developing towards large-scale applications.Lead (II) (Pb2+ ) is the core element used to prepare halide perovskites. ... -
Bipartisanship Breakdown, Functional Networks, and Forensic Analysis in Spanish 2015 and 2016 National Elections.
(Hindawi, 2018-01-24)We present a social network and forensic analysis of the vote counts of Spanish national elections that took place in December 2015 and their sequel in June 2016. We initially consider the phenomenon of bipartisanship ... -
Biphasic calcium phosphate with submicron surface topography in an Ovine model of instrumented posterolateral spinal fusion.
(2018-12)As spinal fusions require large volumes of bone graft, different bone graft substitutes are being investigated as alternatives. A subclass of calcium phosphate materials with submicron surface topography has been shown to ...
