Spatial control of heavy-fermion superconductivity in CeIrIn5

Philip Johannes Walter Moll, Maja Deborah Bachmann, Matthias Carsten Putzke, Kent Robert Shirer

Although crystals of strongly correlated metals exhibit a diverse set of electronic ground states, few approaches exist for spatially modulating their properties. In this study, we demonstrate disorder-free control, on the micrometer scale, over the superc ...

Peripubertal stress-induced heightened aggression: modulation of the glucocorticoid receptor in the central amygdala and normalization by mifepristone treatment

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Jocelin Grosse, Olivia Zanoletti, Stamatina Tzanoulinou, Orbicia Riccio Wicht, Vandana Veenit

Despite the enormous negative impact of excessive aggression for individuals and societies, there is a paucity of treatments. Here, using a peripubertal stress model of heightened aggression in rats, we investigated the involvement of the glucocorticoid sy ...

A new variational line tension model for accurate evaluation of the stress effect on cross-slip energy barrier in face-centered cubic metals

Xiao Zhou, Hui Liu

The present work developed a new variational line tension model (LTM) that accounts for contributions from the local line energy, long-range interaction among dislocation segments, and interplay between dissociated partials. This new LTM has been shown to ...

Long term programming of psychopathology-like behaviors in male rats by peripubertal stress depends on individual’s glucocorticoid responsiveness to stress

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Sophie Elizabeth Walker

Experience of adversity early in life and dysregulation of hypothalamus–pituitary–adrenocortical (HPA) axis activity are risk factors often independently associated with the development of psychopathological disorders, including depression, PTSD and pathol ...

A cost-effective isogeometric approach for composite plates based on a stress recovery procedure

Pablo Antolin Sanchez, Alessandro Reali

This paper introduces a cost-effective strategy to simulate the behavior of laminated plates by means of isogeometric 3D solid elements. Exploiting the high continuity of spline functions and their properties, a proper out-of-plane stress state is recovere ...

Induction of Intracellular Reductive Stress with a Photoactivatable Phosphine Probe

Pablo Rivera Fuentes

Reductive stress is a condition present in cells that have an increased concentration of reducing species, and it has been associated with a number of pathologies, such as neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. The tools available to study reductive stress ...

Anisotropic behaviour of Opalinus Clay through consolidated and drained triaxial testing in saturated conditions

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Valentina Favero

This paper investigates the anisotropic hydro-mechanical behaviour of Opalinus Clay shale, the host material currently being considered for the construction of a nuclear waste repository in Switzerland. Consolidated and drained triaxial tests on Opalinus C ...

Impact of individual differences in glucocorticoid adaptation to stress on behavior, neurophysiology and metabolism

Damien Sébastien Huzard

The stress system is a key modulator of homeostasis and allows organisms to adapt to environmental changes. Proper survival is dependent on the appropriate stress response, for example initiating food (energy) intake or provoking physical reaction. However ...

Visual masking deficits in schizophrenia: A view into the genetics of the disease through an endophenotype

Michael Herzog, Jacques Fellay, Maya Roinishvili, Flavia Aurelia Shoko Hodel

Schizophrenia is a chronic disorder determined by a complex mix of genetic and environmental factors. To better understand the contributions of human genetic variation to schizophrenia, we performed a genome-wide association study of a validated endophenot ...

Stress Impacts the Regulation Neuropeptides in the Rat Hippocampus and Prefrontal Cortex

Gregor Rainer, Laura Lozano Montes, Nan Zhao

Adverse life experience increases the lifetime risk to several stress-related psychopathologies, such as anxiety or depressive–like symptom following stress in adulthood. However, the neurochemical modulations triggered by stress have not been fully charac ...
