The hydrogen embrittlement sensitivity of duplex stainless steel with different phase fractions evaluated by in-situ mechanical testing by Margo Cauwels, Lisa Claeys, Tom Depover, Kim Verbeken

“…Samples with a higher ferrite fraction are embrittled more due to their higher hydrogen diffusivity. In-situ tensile tests, interrupted at the ultimate tensile strength, show hydrogen-assisted cracks on the specimen surface both in austenite and ferrite and across the α/γ interface.…”

From Tower to the Bastion by Christof Krauskopf, Peter Purton

“…New designs of castles, fortresses and town walls focussed on the need to shield high medieval walls and towers against the power of the gun, but also on how to mount guns on defences and integrate loop holes to keep an attacker as far away as possible. Ideas diffused rapidly across Europe and the Muslim world. …”

Transcriptomic profiling in canine B-cell lymphoma supports a synergistic effect of BTK and PI3K inhibitors by Xenia Lainscsek, Weibo Kong, Barbara C. Rütgen, Julia Beck, Bertram Brenig, Ingo Nolte, Hugo Murua Escobar, Hugo Murua Escobar, Leila Taher, Leila Taher

“…Within this pathway, the inhibition of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) or Phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) alone presents encouraging efficacy in the treatment of certain both canine and human hematological malignancies.MethodsHere we characterized the effects of the BTK inhibitor Ibrutinib and the PI3K inhibitor AS-605240 as single and combined agents in the canine pre-clinical diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) model CLBL-1 by assaying cell proliferation and metabolic activity, and performing RNA-seq to measure gene expression changes.ResultsWe found 2,336 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) across all treatment types and time points relative to the control. …”
