It is a great physical challenge to achieve controlled nuclear fusion in magnetic confinement tokamak and solve energy shortage problem for decades. In tokamak plasma, large-scale plasma instability called disruption will halt power production of reactor and damage key components. Prediction and prevention of plasma disruption is extremely urgent and important. However, there is no analytical theory can elucidate plasma disruption physical mechanism yet. Here we show an analytical theory of tokamak plasma disruption based on nonextensive geodesic acoustic mode theory, which can give the physical mechanism of disruption. The proposed theory has not only been confirmed by experimental data of disruption on T-10 device, but also can explain many related phenomena around plasma disruption, filling the gap in physical mechanism of tokamak plasma disruption.

Talin regulates the adhesion and migration of cells in part by promoting the affinity of integrins for extracellular matrix proteins, a process that in cells such as endothelial cells and platelets requires the direct interaction of talin with both the small GTPase, Rap1-GTP, and the integrin β3 cytoplasmic tail. To study this process in more detail, we employed an optogenetic approach in living, immortalized endothelial cells to be able to regulate talin interaction with the plasma membrane. Previous studies identified talin as the Rap1-GTP effector for β3 integrin activation.

Oxidative stress (OS) is established as a key factor in the etiology of both male and female infertility, arising from an imbalance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and the endogenous antioxidant (AOX) defenses. In men, OS adversely affects sperm function by inducing DNA damage, reducing motility, significantly impairing sperm vitality through plasma membrane peroxidation and loss of membrane integrity, and ultimately compromising overall sperm quality. In women, OS is implicated in various reproductive disorders, including polycystic ovary syndrome, endometriosis, and premature ovarian failure, leading to diminished oocyte quality, disrupted folliculogenesis, and poorer reproductive outcomes.

Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II), also known as Hunter syndrome, is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder. It results from a deficiency of the enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase (I2S), leading to the accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) in various tissues and organs. Clinical manifestations include skeletal abnormalities, facial coarsening, organ enlargement, and developmental delays.
