Kinetics and optimality of influenza A virus locomotion

This study shows influenza A viruses use a burnt-bridge Brownian ratchet mechanism for directed motion through mucus, operating in an optimal parameter range due to evolutionary adaptation.

Configurational entropy is an intrinsic driver of tissue structural heterogeneity

The paper uses human mammary organoids to show that configurational entropy drives tissue structural heterogeneity by linking structural parameters to molecular and microenvironmental factors.

In vivo imaging and quantification of carbon tracer dynamics in nodulated root systems of pea plants

PET imaging with 11C tracer quantifies carbon allocation to nodules in pea roots, showing nitrate reduces nodule carbon uptake by 40-47%.

Multiscale simulations examining glycan shield effects on drug binding to influenza neuraminidase

This study uses multiscale simulations to show glycans reduce drug binding to influenza neuraminidase by sterically blocking the primary binding site.

Terasaki Spiral Ramps and Intracellular Diffusion

This study analyzes diffusion on a surface with Terasaki ramps and finds they enhance the transport of water-soluble molecules in the ER lumen.
