The discovery of aquaporin-1 (AQP1) answered the long-standing biophysical question of
how water specifically crosses biological membranes. In the kidney, at least seven aquaporins …

Silicon (Si) anode is among the most promising candidates for the next-generation high-capacity
electrodes in Li-ion batteries owing to its unparalleled theoretical capacity (4200 mA hg…

The discovery of aquaporin membrane water channels by Agre and coworkers answered a
long-standing biophysical question of how water specifically crosses biologic membranes, …

Lithium-ion batteries with ever-increasing energy densities are needed for batteries for
advanced devices and all-electric vehicles. Silicon has been highlighted as a promising anode …

… Increases in efficiency were found to result from the addition of t-BP. These are typically …
t-BP 30 . The previously reported rapid decomposition of the ferrocenium ion in the presence of t-…

We present a sugar-templated polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) sponge for the selective
absorption of oil from water. The process for fabricating the PDMS sponge does not require any …

Aquaporin (AQP) water-channel proteins are freely permeated by water but not by ions or
charged solutes 1 . Although mammalian aquaporins were believed to be located in plasma …

BMP-2 stimulates the expression of three osteogenic master transcription factors: Runx2, Dlx5,
and Osterix (Osx). However, the hierarchical regulatory relationships among them are not …

Introduction: The purpose of this investigation was to quantitatively evaluate density of the
alveolar and basal bones of the maxilla and the mandible. Methods: Sixty-three sets of …

Protein inactivation by reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) and
superoxide radical (O 2 •– ) is considered to trigger cell death pathways associated with …
