Liquid-like versus stress-driven dynamics in a metallic glass former observed by temperature scanning X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy by Maximilian Frey, Nico Neuber, Sascha Sebastian Riegler, Antoine Cornet, Yuriy Chushkin, Federico Zontone, Lucas Matthias Ruschel, Bastian Adam, Mehran Nabahat, Fan Yang, Jie Shen, Fabian Westermeier, Michael Sprung, Daniele Cangialosi, Valerio Di Lisio, Isabella Gallino, Ralf Busch, Beatrice Ruta, Eloi Pineda

“…Profiting from modern detector technology and highly brilliant fourth-generation synchrotron radiation, we apply temperature scanning X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy (XPCS) to probe the dynamics of a Pt-based metallic glass former in the glass, glass transition region, and supercooled liquid, covering up to six orders of magnitude in timescales. Our data demonstrates that the structural α-relaxation process is still observable in the glass, although it is partially masked by a faster source of decorrelation observed at atomic scale. …”

Ezrin drives adaptation of monocytes to the inflamed lung microenvironment by Ravindra Gudneppanavar, Caterina Di Pietro, Hasan H Öz, Ping-Xia Zhang, Ee-Chun Cheng, Pamela H. Huang, Toma Tebaldi, Giulia Biancon, Stephanie Halene, Adam D. Hoppe, Catherine Kim, Anjelica L. Gonzalez, Diane S. Krause, Marie E. Egan, Neetu Gupta, Thomas S. Murray, Emanuela M. Bruscia

“…Mechanistically, the loss of ezrin in monocytes disrupts activation of focal adhesion kinase and AKT serine-threonine protein kinase signaling, essential for lung-recruited monocytes and monocyte-derived MΦs to adhere to the ECM, proliferate, and survive. In summary, our data show that ezrin plays a role beyond structural cellular support, influencing diverse monocytes/MΦ processes and signaling pathways during inflammation, facilitating their differentiation into tissue-resident macrophages.…”
