The optical size and intrinsic material properties of scattering particles introduce inherent restrictions on their scattering patterns. We show that large size, core-shell dielectric structures with spherical symmetry provide the necessary flexibility for exciting higher-order spherical modes and, consequently, allow us to control the directivity of the scattered radiation. Significant scattering can be generated over angular domains that were formerly believed to be accessible only to dipolar scattering.

Background: Hepatic glycogen storage diseases (GSD) are inborn errors of metabolism with abnormal storage or utilization of glycogen, a complex disease with significant genetic heterogeneity and similar clinical manifestations. This study aimed to describe the gastrointestinal symptoms and endoscopic features of hepatic GSD, including types Ia, Ib, III, VI, and IX, to provide evidence for etiology and treatment.
Methods: A national cohort survey questionnaire was distributed to patients diagnosed with GSD type Ia, Ib, III, VI, and IX through genetic testing or their parents in mainland China in May 2022.

Controlling scattering and routing of chiral light at the nanoscale is important for optical information processing and imaging, quantum technologies as well as optical manipulation. Here, we introduce a concept of rotating chiral dipoles in order to achieve unidirectional chiral scattering. Implementing this concept by engineering multipole excitations in helicoidal plasmonic nanoparticles, we experimentally demonstrate enantio-sensitive and highly-directional forward scattering of circularly polarised light.

The aggregation of α-synuclein is crucial to the development of Lewy body diseases, including Parkinson's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies. The aggregation pathway of α-synuclein typically involves a defined sequence of nucleation, elongation, and secondary nucleation, exhibiting prion-like spreading. This study employed Raman spectroscopy and machine learning analysis, alongside complementary techniques, to characterize the biomolecular changes during the fibrillation of purified recombinant wild-type α-synuclein protein.

Asymmetrical flow field-flow fractionation (AF4) with multi-detection has continued to gain wider acceptance for characterizing complex drug products. An important quality attribute for these products is the measurement of the particle size distribution (PSD). Current limitations of established procedures (e.

Background: Neuropilin-1 (NRP1) is a transmembrane protein involved in surface receptor complexes for a variety of extracellular signals. NRP1 expression in human cancers is associated with prominent angiogenesis and advanced progression stage. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying NRP1 activity in the tumor microenvironment remain unclear.
