Mammalian telomeres are protected by a six-protein complex: shelterin. Shelterin contains two closely related proteins (TRF1 and TRF2), which recruit various proteins to telomeres. We dissect the interactions of TRF1 and TRF2 with their shared binding partner (TIN2) and other shelterin accessory factors. TRF1 recognizes TIN2 using a conserved molecular surface in its TRF homology (TRFH) domain. However, this same surface does not act as a TIN2 binding site in TRF2, and TIN2 binding to TRF2 is mediated ...

Oxidative stress has been causally linked to various diseases. Electron transport chain (ETC) inhibitors such as rotenone and antimycin A are frequently used in model systems to study oxidative stress. Oxidative stress that is provoked by ETC inhibitors can be visualized using the fluorogenic probe 2′,7′-dichlorodihydrofluorescein-diacetate (DCFH2-DA). Non-fluorescent DCFH2-DA crosses the plasma membrane, is deacetylated to 2′,7′-dichlorodihydrofluorescein (DCFH2) by esterases, and is oxidized to its ...

We have designed multifunctional nanoparticulate reporter bioprobes capable of targeting vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1), which is up-regulated in numerous inflammatory processes. These perfluorocarbon-cored nanoparticles emit a unique 19F magnetic resonance (MR) signature, providing the potential to localize and quantify VCAM-1 expression in early atherosclerosis. Nanoparticle-VCAM-1 targeting specificity was confirmed by in vitro binding and competition studies. ApoE-null and control ...

The loss of centrosymmetry via oxygen octahedral rotations is demonstrated in the n = 2 Dion–Jacobson family of layered oxide perovskites, A′LaB 2 O 7 (A′ = Rb, Cs; B = Nb, Ta). Ab initio density functional theory calculations predict that all four materials should adopt polar space groups, in contrast to the results of previous experimental studies that have assigned these materials to the centrosymmetric P4/ mmm space group. Optical second harmonic generation experiments confirm the presence of a noncentrosymmetric ...

Abstract Self‐assembly is a desired property in supramolecular chemistry, but extensive aggregation may be counterproductive. Rigid systems typically have better organization, but are inherently less dynamic. This work shows that ion transport by amphiphilic heptapeptides (synthetic anion transporters or SATs) is affected by aggregation of the monomers in the bulk aqueous phase to which they are added and within the bilayer. Ion transport was assessed for all compounds by assay of Cl − release from ...

An improper mechanism for breaking inversion symmetry is revealed and thus inducing piezoelectricity in the family of layered perovskites, Li R TiO 4 ( R = rare earths), which are previously reported as centrosymmetric. Noncentrosymmetry in this family of compounds arises from TiO 6 octahedral rotation represented by a − b o c o / b o a − c o in the perovskite blocks between R O rock salt and LiO antifluorite layers. X‐ray diffraction and optical second harmonic generation complemented by density functional ...

Abstract Mitochondrial DNA copy number (mtDNA-CN) measured from blood specimens is a minimally invasive marker of mitochondrial function that exhibits both inter-individual and intercellular variation. To identify genes involved in regulating mitochondrial function, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in 465,809 White individuals from the Cohorts for Heart and Aging Research in Genomic Epidemiology (CHARGE) consortium and the UK Biobank (UKB). We identified 133 SNPs with statistically ...

Photosurfactants have shown considerable promise for enabling stimuli-responsive control of the properties and motion of fluid interfaces. Recently, a number of photoswitch chemistries have emerged to tailor the photoresponsive properties of photosurfactants. However, systematic studies investigating how photoresponsive surfactant behavior depends on the photochemical and photophysical properties of the switch remain scarce. In this work, we develop synthetic schemes and surfactant designs to produce ...

Abstract “Flower‐like” motifs of Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 were synthesized by using a facile and large‐scale hydrothermal process involving unique Ti foil precursors followed by a short, relatively low‐temperature calcination in air. Moreover, a detailed time‐dependent growth mechanism and a reasonable reaction scheme were proposed to clearly illustrate and highlight the structural evolution and subsequent formation of this material. Specifically, the resulting “flower‐like” Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 microspheres consisting ...

Despite improved survival due to combination antiretroviral therapy (cART), youth with perinatally-acquired HIV (PHIV) show cognitive deficits and developmental delay at increased rates. HIV affects the brain during critical periods of development, and the brain may be a persistent reservoir for HIV due to suboptimal blood brain barrier penetration of cART. We conducted structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) and cognitive testing in 40 PHIV youth (mean age=16.7years) recruited from the NIH Pediatric ...

Youth with perinatally-acquired HIV (PHIV) experience specific and global cognitive deficits at increased rates compared to typically-developing HIV-uninfected youth. In youth with PHIV, HIV infects the brain early in development. Neuroimaging studies have demonstrated altered grey matter morphometry in youth with PHIV compared to typically-developing youth.

Abstract The quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) effect is characterized by a dissipationless chiral edge state with a quantized Hall resistance at zero magnetic field. Manipulating the QAH state is of great importance in both the understanding of topological quantum physics and the implementation of dissipationless electronics. Here, the QAH effect is realized in the magnetic topological insulator Cr‐doped (Bi,Sb) 2 Te 3 (CBST) grown on an uncompensated antiferromagnetic insulator Al‐doped Cr 2 O 3 . Through ...

Glioma is one of the most common central nervous system (CNS) cancers that can be found within the brain and the spinal cord. One of the pressing issues plaguing the development of therapeutics for glioma originates from the selective and semipermeable CNS membranes: the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and blood-spinal cord barrier (BSCB). It is difficult to bypass these membranes and target the desired cancerous tissue because the purpose of the BBB and BSCB is to filter toxins and foreign material from ...
