The state of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion caused by excessive and prolonged stress, known as Burnout Syndrome (BS), is not only affecting the medical workforce but medical students in training. Gender, race, ethnicity, and potentially other variables can serve as significant risk factors contributing to BS among medical students. Despite the importance of understanding these disparities, very few studies in the U.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFG1P3/IFI6 is an interferon stimulated gene with antiapoptotic, prometastatic, and antiviral functions. Despite its pleiotropic functions, subcellular localization of G1P3 remains unclear. Using biochemical- and confocal microscopic approaches, this study identified the localization of G1P3 in organelles of the endomembrane system and in the mitochondria of breast cancer cells.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFOxygen vacancies are ubiquitous in metal oxides and critical to performance, yet the impact of these states upon charge carrier dynamics important for photoelectrochemical and photocatalytic applications remains contentious and poorly understood. A key challenge is the unambiguous identification of spectroscopic fingerprints which can be used to track their function. Herein, we employ five complementary techniques to modulate the electronic occupancy of states associated with oxygen vacancies in situ in BiVO photoanodes, allowing us to identify a spectral signature for the ionization of these states.

However, individual differences in the susceptibility to xenobiotic-induced breast cancer remain unclear. Since epigenetic modifications could control the expression of metabolic enzymes, our goal was to determine whether epigenome modulated metabolic networks determine susceptibility to xenobiotic-induced breast cancer.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFSpontaneous polarization is shown to enhance the lifetimes of photogenerated species in BaTiO3 . This is attributed to polarization-induced surface band bending acting as a thermal barrier to electron/hole recombination. The study indicates that the efficiencies of solar cells and solar fuels devices can be enhanced by the use of ferroelectric materials.
