Capacitative calcium entry (CCE) describes Ca 2+ influx into cells that replenishes Ca 2+
stores emptied through the action of IP3 and other agents. It is an essential component of …

2D materials are the focus of an intense research effort because of their unique properties
and their potential for revealing intriguing new phenomena. Phosphorene, a monolayer of …

Analytical pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS) was employed to
achieve fast pyrolysis of cellulose and on-line analysis of the pyrolysis vapors. Experiments …

The Drosophila transient receptor potential (trp) gene and its homologue, trpl, have been
suggested to mediate calcium entry during the insect's phototransduction process. We isolated …

Fast pyrolysis of biomass is one of the most promising technologies for converting biomass
to liquid fuels. As a result, this technology has gained extensive attention in the last two …

We demonstrated in this paper the shape-controlled synthesis of hematite (α-Fe 2 O 3 )
nanostructures with a gradient in the diameters (from less than 20 nm to larger than 300 nm) and …

Background Delirium is a postoperative complication that occurs frequently in patients older
than 65 years, and presages adverse outcomes. We investigated whether prophylactic low-…

Calcium ions are released from intracellular stores in response to agonist-stimulated
production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP 3 ), a second messenger generated at the cell …

Solar‐driven interfacial evaporation is an important approach for solving the issue of freshwater
scarcity. However, the practical application of solar steam generation is hindered by high …

Background: The role of currently available drugs for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) has been
controversial, with some national formularies restricting their use, and health economists …
