Summary: Intrusive growth is a type of cell growth where a cell exceeds the growth rate of its neighbors and extends longer. Fibers, the most abundant cell type in plant mechanical tissues, play a fundamental role in the production of textiles and other materials. A mutant of flax, known as reduced fiber 1 (rdf), has impaired intrusive growth in both phloem and xylem. This mutant provides insights into the molecular mechanisms and principles of plant mechanical tissue functioning.

Summary: Conductive atomic force microscopy (CAFM) is a powerful technique for studying electrical and mechanical properties at the nanoscale. The reliability of probe tips is a major challenge in CAFM, and solid Pt probes offer a more durable and reliable alternative to metal-coated silicon tips. The use of solid Pt probes can enhance the reliability of CAFM experiments by providing similar performance in terms of lateral resolution and a longer lifetime.

Summary: High quality Ba2NdFeNb4O15 epitaxial films with thicknesses ranging from 10 nm to 1 μm have been successfully fabricated by RF cathode sputtering. The films exhibit orientational domains with a 18.4-degree in-plane rotation and tetragonal unit cell. The surface of the films is smooth and the presence of orientational domains does not affect the surface relief. X-ray diffraction, atomic force microscopy and energy dispersive elemental analysis confirm the absence of impurities in the obtained films.

Summary: The reciprocal interactions between the cell nucleus and the extracellular matrix influence macroscale tissue phenotype changes. Enzymatic disruption of the tissue matrix is hypothesized to result in softer tissue, impacting the stiffness of embedded cell and nuclear structures. An atomic force microscopy needle-tip probe technique is expanded to measure nuclear and cell membrane stiffness in native tissue without perturbing the tissue structure.

Summary: In this paper, atomic force microscopy (AFM) was used to study the atomic steps of the 4H-SiC substrate (0001) surface. The results show that the distributions of the atomic step morphology on the surfaces of wafers obtained from the same crystal are consistent. Based on a comparison of high-resolution X-ray diffraction (HRXRD) results, basal plane bending is the fundamental reason for the change in the atomic step morphology in different regions of the substrate.

Summary: This study characterized the effects of iron-based complexes on the structural and morphological properties of breast cell lines. The complexes caused cell softening, increased size, and subsequent re-stiffening. They also induced cytoskeletal and mitochondrial reorganization. Molecular dynamic simulation suggested direct internalization of the complexes and demonstrated that their effects were not solely due to physical interaction with the cell membrane.

Summary: The relationship between the mechanical properties, chemical composition, and cellulose structure of flax fibre bundles was investigated in this study using sequential biopolymer extraction. The results showed that the oxalate extract mainly consisted of homogalacturonans and type I rhamnogalacturonans, while the LiCl extract was composed mainly of glucomannans and the KOH extract of xyloglucans. The extraction process led to the disappearance of the middle lamella, resulting in a decrease in the tensile Young's modulus and maximum strength of the fibre bundles.

Summary: Liver disease is a major cause of global mortality, and identifying biomarkers for diagnosing its progression is crucial for improving outcomes. Targeted mass spectrometry is a powerful tool for verifying biomarker candidates and clinical applications, particularly for glycoproteins translation. However, the limitation of analyzing only one sample per run has become apparent. In this study, a high-throughput intact N-glycopeptides quantification strategy was developed, allowing the validation of 20 samples per run with an average analysis time of 3 minutes per sample. The strategy was applied in a cohort of 461 serum samples and identified a panel of 10 IgG N-glycopeptides that have strong clinical utility in evaluating the severity of liver disease.
