Neutrophil extracellular traps mediate TLR9/Merlin axis to resist ferroptosis and promote triple negative breast cancer progression
Neutrophil and neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) were reported to be associated with tumor development, but the exact role and concrete mechanisms are still poorly understood, especially in triple negative...

Use of distributed Bragg reflectors to enhance Fabry–Pérot lasing in vertically aligned ZnO nanowires
An optically pumped ZnO nanowire laser with a 10-period SiO2/SiN x distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) was demonstrated. Stimulated emissions with equally distributed Fabry–Pérot ...
