All-Electron BSE@GW Method with Numeric Atom-Centered Orbitals for Extended Periodic Systems.

Green's function theory has emerged as a powerful many-body approach not only in condensed matter physics but also in quantum chemistry in recent years. We have developed a new all-electron implementation of the BSE@GW formalism using numeric atom-centered orbital basis sets (Liu, C. 2020, 152, 044105).

Clonorchis sinensis Promotes Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma Progression by Activating FASN-Mediated Fatty Acid Metabolism.

Background: Clonorchis sinensis infection is an important risk factor for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC). C. sinensis positive (C.

SLC6A14 as a Key Diagnostic Biomarker for Ulcerative Colitis: An Integrative Bioinformatics and Machine Learning Approach.

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease characterized by intestinal inflammation and autoimmune responses. This study aimed to identify diagnostic biomarkers for UC through bioinformatics analysis and machine learning, and to validate these findings through immunofluorescence staining of clinical samples. Differential expression analysis was conducted on expression profile datasets from 4 UC samples.

Copper-instigated modulatory cell mortality mechanisms and progress in kidney diseases.

Copper is a vital cofactor in various enzymes, plays a pivotal role in maintaining cell homeostasis. When copper metabolism is disordered and mitochondrial dysfunction is impaired, programmed cell death such as apoptosis, paraptosis, pyroptosis, ferroptosis, cuproptosis, autophagy and necroptosis can be induced. In this review, we focus on the metabolic mechanisms of copper.

The dual effects of the air gap on thermal aging and thermal protection of firefighting suits exposed to wildland fires.

In wildland firefighting, the air gap (AG) between clothing and the human body can effectively decrease heat transferred to skin but has a negative impact on thermal aging of clothing. Heat transfer to skin from a fire source can led to burn injuries and heat is transmitted between adjacent AGs parallel to the skin surface. An open AG simulator was developed to explore the dual effects of the AG on fabric thermal aging and skin thermal protection.
