Open AccessSupersymmetric backgrounds in (1 + 1) dimensions and inhomogeneous field theory
We find a (1 + 1)-dimensional metric solution for a background hosting various supersymmetric field theories with a single non-chiral real supercharge. This supersymmetric background is globally hyperbolic eve...

Open AccessOpposing functions of circadian protein DBP and atypical E2F family E2F8 in anti-tumor Th9 cell differentiation
Interleukin-9 (IL-9)-producing CD4+ T helper cells (Th9) have been implicated in allergy/asthma and anti-tumor immunity, yet molecular insights on their differentiation from activated T cells, driven by IL-4 and ...

Open AccessAdS Q-soliton and inhomogeneously mass-deformed ABJM model
We study dual geometries to a deformed ABJM model with spatially dependent source functions at finite temperature. These source functions are proportional to the mass function m(x) = m0 sin kx and its derivative

Open AccessThermodynamics of inhomogeneously mass-deformed ABJM model and pressure anisotropy
In this paper we study the thermodynamics of black branes with a modulated complex scalar in the context of bulk and boundary theories. The modulation induces inhomogeneity to the dual field theory, anisotropi...

AdS Space from Entanglement Entropy
We show that the anti-de Sitter(AdS) space naturally emerges from the conformal field theory (CFT). The behavior of the leading divergent term in the entanglement entropy implies the underlying AdS geometry. T...

Open AccessLFA-1 (CD11a/CD18) and Mac-1 (CD11b/CD18) distinctly regulate neutrophil extravasation through hotspots I and II
Precise spatiotemporal regulation of leukocyte extravasation is key for generating an efficient immune response to injury or infection. The integrins LFA-1(CD11a/CD18) and Mac-1(CD11b/CD18) play overlap** ro...

Open AccessThermodynamic volume and the extended Smarr relation
We continue to explore the scaling transformation in the reduced action formalism of gravity models. As an extension of our construction, we consider the extended forms of the Smarr relation for various black ...

Open AccessTIMP-1 mediates TGF-β-dependent crosstalk between hepatic stellate and cancer cells via FAK signaling
Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling plays a key role in progression and metastasis of HCC. This study was undertaken to gain the proof of concept of a small-molecule inhibitor of TGF-β type I recept...

Open AccessScaling symmetry and scalar hairy Lifshitz black holes
By utilizing the scaling symmetry of the reduced action for planar black holes, we obtain the corresponding conserved charge. We use the conserved charge to find the generalized Smarr relation of static hairy ...

EW-7197 inhibits hepatic, renal, and pulmonary fibrosis by blocking TGF-β/Smad and ROS signaling
Fibrosis is an inherent response to chronic damage upon immense apoptosis or necrosis. Transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-β1) signaling plays a key role in the fibrotic response to chronic liver injury. To ...

Open AccessQuasi-local charges and asymptotic symmetry generators
The quasi-local formulation of conserved charges through the off-shell approach is extended to cover the asymptotic symmetry generators. By introducing identically conserved currents which are appropriate for ...
