Maximum packing densities of basic 3D objects
Numerical simulation results show that the upper bound order of random packing densities of basic 3D objects is cube (0.78) > ellipsoid (0.74) > cylinder (0.72) > spherocylinder (0.69) > tetrahedron (0.68) > c...

Open AccessA Compact Trench-Assisted Multi-Orbital-Angular-Momentum Multi-Ring Fiber for Ultrahigh-Density Space-Division Multiplexing (19 Rings × 22 Modes)
We present a compact (130 μm cladding diameter) trench-assisted multi-orbital-angular-momentum (OAM) multi-ring fiber with 19 rings each supporting 22 modes with 18 OAM ones. Using the high-contrast-index ring...

Open AccessFunctional diversity and properties of multiple xylanases from Penicillium oxalicum GZ-2
A multiple xylanase system with high levels of xylanase activity produced from Penicillium oxalicum GZ-2 using agricultural waste as a substrate has been previously reported. However, the eco-physiological proper...

Open AccessEvolution of the dense packings of spherotetrahedral particles: from ideal tetrahedra to spheres
Particle shape plays a crucial role in determining packing characteristics. Real particles in nature usually have rounded corners. In this work, we systematically investigate the rounded corner effect on the d...

Open AccessSimultaneous demultiplexing and steering of multiple orbital angular momentum modes
We present a simple scheme to perform simultaneous demultiplexing and steering of multiple orbital angular momentum (OAM) modes using a single complex phase mask. By designing the phase mask, the propagation d...

Open AccessDirect Observation of the Biaxial Stress Effect on Efficiency Droop in GaN-based Light-emitting Diode under Electrical Injection
Light-emitting diode (LED) efficiency has attracted considerable interest because of the extended use of solid-state lighting. Owing to lack of direct measurement, identification of the reasons for efficiency ...

Open AccessGene knockout of nuclear progesterone receptor provides insights into the regulation of ovulation by LH signaling in zebrafish
It is well established that the luteinizing hormone surge triggers ovulation, a dynamic process leading to the release of the mature oocyte from the ovarian follicle. But how this process controlled by LH sign...

Open AccessGenomic, physiologic, and proteomic insights into metabolic versatility in Roseobacter clade bacteria isolated from deep-sea water
Roseobacter clade bacteria are ubiquitous in marine environments and now thought to be significant contributors to carbon and sulfur cycling. However, only a few strains of roseobacters have been isolated from th...

Open AccessFull-duplex bidirectional data transmission link using twisted lights multiplexing over 1.1-km orbital angular momentum fiber
We present a full-duplex bidirectional data transmission link using twisted lights multiplexing over 1.1-km orbital angular momentum (OAM) fiber. OAM+1 and OAM−1 modes carrying 20-Gbit/s quadrature phase-shift ke...

Open AccessHeterophase-structured nanocrystals as superior supports for Ru-based catalysts in selective hydrogenation of benzene
ZrO2 heterophase structure nanocrystals (HSNCs) were synthesized with tunable ratios of monoclinic ZrO2 (m-ZrO2) to tetragonal ZrO2 (t-ZrO2). The phase mole ratio of m-ZrO2 versus t-ZrO2 in ZrO2 HSNCs was tuned f...

Open AccessEGFR induces DNA decomposition via phosphodiester bond cleavage
EGFR may induce DNA degradation. This activity had not been previously described as an EGRF function. To confirm this unexpected activity, testing of EGFR in the presence of ATP and either 5A, 5C, 5G, 5T, or 5...

Open AccessDownregulation of ATG5-dependent macroautophagy by chaperone-mediated autophagy promotes breast cancer cell metastasis
Recent data have shown that the expression of lysosome-associated membrane protein type 2 A (LAMP2A), the key protein in the chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA) pathway, is elevated in breast tumor tissues. How...

Open AccessProteomic and network analysis of human serum albuminome by integrated use of quick crosslinking and two-step precipitation
Affinity- and chemical-based methods are usually employed to prepare human serum albuminome; however, these methods remain technically challenging. Herein, we report the development of a two-step precipitation...

Open AccessDual blockage of both PD-L1 and CD47 enhances immunotherapy against circulating tumor cells
Carcinoma metastasis is triggered by a subpopulation of circulating tumor cells (CTCs). And single immune checkpoint therapy is not good enough to inhibit CTC-induced metastasis. Here, we demonstrate that simu...
