Thanks to the Cassini-Huygens space mission between 2004 and 2017, a lot was learned about Titan, the biggest satellite of Saturn, and its intriguing atmosphere, surface, and organic chemistry complexity. However, key questions about the potential for the atmosphere and surface chemistry to produce organic molecules of direct interest for prebiotic chemistry and life did not find an answer. Due to Titan potential as a habitable world, NASA selected the Dragonfly space mission to be launched in 2027 to Titan's surface and explore the Shangri-La surface region for minimum 3 years...

As the downscaling of conventional dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) has reached its limits, 3D DRAM has been proposed as a next-generation DRAM cell architecture. However, incorporating silicon into 3D DRAM technology faces various challenges in securing cost-effective high cell transistor performance. Therefore, many researchers are exploring the application of next-generation semiconductor materials, such as transition oxide semiconductors (OSs) and metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), to address these challenges and to realize 3D DRAM...

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive and life-threatening brain tumor, characterized by its highly malignant and recurrent nature. DNA damage-regulated autophagy modulator 1 (DRAM-1) is a p53 target gene encoding a lysosomal protein that induces macro-autophagy and damage-induced programmed cell death in tumor growth. However, the precise mechanisms underlying how DRAM-1 affects tumor cell proliferation through regulation of lysosomal function and autophagic flux stability remain incompletely understood...

The separation of the two rectus abdominis muscles along the linea alba is termed diastasis of recti abdominis muscles (DRAM). DRAM is a common health problem in people that are both pregnant and postpartum. With a 100% frequency at gestational week 35, it is extremely frequent during pregnancy. Control and function of the trunk are greatly influenced by the musculature of the abdomen. The existence, extent, and duration of DRAM have been connected to low back and pelvic discomfort however the relationship is not conclusive...

Polyphenols are diverse and abundant carbon sources across ecosystems- having important roles in host-associated and terrestrial systems alike. However, the microbial genes encoding polyphenol metabolic enzymes are poorly represented in commonly used annotation databases, limiting widespread surveying of this metabolism. Here we present CAMPER, a tool that combines custom annotation searches with database-derived searches to both annotate and summarize polyphenol metabolism genes for a wide audience. With CAMPER, users will identify potential polyphenol-active genes and genomes to more broadly understand microbial carbon cycling in their datasets...

Donor-acceptor (D-A)-based architecture has been the key to increase storage capability efficiency through the enhanced charge transportation in the fabricated device. We have designed and synthesized a series of functionalized indoloquinoxalines (IQ) for non-volatile organic memory devices. The investigation on UV-visible spectra reveals the absorption maxima of the compounds around 420 nm, attributed to the intramolecular charge transfer between indole and quinoxaline moiety. The irreversible anodic peak in the 1...

Whether amorphous oxide semiconductor (AOS) is an enabler or pass-by for monolithic 3D DRAM is discussed, with current challenges and future directions proposed in this perspective.

Encouraged by the successful fabrication of C60-GNR (GNR = graphene nanoribbon) single-molecule transistors in experiments, four Fe-containing derived double-layered devices of Fe@C60-GNR are designed by employing different electrode linkages and their transport properties are investigated by using density functional theory (DFT) and nonequilibrium Green's function (NEGF) methods. Regardless of electrode connection, all devices give rise to a smaller negative differential resistance (NDR) peak at V=0.2 and a higher peak at 1...

This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the security vulnerability known as rowhammer in Dynamic Random-Access Memory (DRAM). While DRAM offers many desirable advantages, including low latency, high density, and cost-effectiveness, rowhammer vulnerability, first identified in 2014, poses a significant threat to computing systems. Rowhammer attacks involve repetitive access to specific DRAM rows, which can cause bit flips in neighboring rows, potentially compromising system credentials, integrity, and availability...

Hafnia-based ferroelectrics and their semiconductor applications are reviewed, focusing on next-generation dynamic random-access-memory (DRAM) and Flash. The challenges of achieving high endurance and high write/read speed and the optimal material properties to achieve them are discussed. In DRAM applications, the trade-off between remanent polarization ( P r ), endurance, and operation speed is highlighted, focusing on reducing the critical material property E c (coercive field). Novel phase formation and interfacial redox chemistry are reviewed as potential game-changers for ferroelectric memories...

In this paper, we propose for the first time a self-refreshing mechanism in a junctionless field-effect transistor (JLFET) based on one-transistor dynamic random-access memory (1T-DRAM) with a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) structure. The self-refreshing mechanism continuously creates holes by appropriately generating impact ionization during the holding process through the application of an appropriate operation bias voltage. This leads to self-refreshing, which prevents the recombination of holes. When using the self-refreshing mechanism for the proposed device, the sensing margins were 15...

Today's explosion of data urgently requires memory technologies capable of storing large volumes of data in shorter time frames, a feat unattainable with Flash or DRAM. Intel Optane, commonly referred to as three-dimensional phase change memory, stands out as one of the most promising candidates. The Optane with cross-point architecture is constructed through layering a storage element and a selector known as the ovonic threshold switch (OTS). The OTS device, which employs chalcogenide film, has thereby gathered increased attention in recent years...

High-grade gliomas are extremely fatal tumors, marked by severe hypoxia and therapeutic resistance. Autophagy is a cellular degradative process that can be activated by hypoxia, ultimately resulting in tumor advancement and chemo-resistance. Our study aimed to examine the link between autophagy markers' expression in low-grade gliomas (LGGs) and high-grade gliomas (HGGs). In 39 glioma cases, we assessed the protein expression of autophagy markers LC3B, SQSTM1/p62 , and DRAM by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and the mRNA expression of the autophagy genes PTEN, PI3K, AKT, mTOR, ULK1, ULK2, UVRAG, Beclin 1, and VPS34 using RT-qPCR...

As additive manufacturing rapidly expands the number of materials including waste plastics and composites, there is an urgent need to reduce the experimental time needed to identify optimized printing parameters for novel materials. Computational intelligence (CI) in general and particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithms in particular have been shown to accelerate finding optimal printing parameters. Unfortunately, the implementation of CI has been prohibitively complex for noncomputer scientists. To overcome these limitations, this article develops, tests, and validates PSO Experimenter, an easy-to-use open-source platform based around the PSO algorithm and applies it to optimizing recycled materials...

BACKGROUND: Sepsis remains a major clinical challenge for which successful treatment requires greater precision in identifying patients at increased risk of adverse outcomes requiring different therapeutic approaches. Predicting clinical outcomes and immunological endotyping of septic patients has generally relied on using blood protein or mRNA biomarkers, or static cell phenotyping. Here, we sought to determine whether functional immune responsiveness would yield improved precision. METHODS: An ex vivo whole blood enzyme-linked immunosorbent (ELISpot) assay for cellular production of interferon-γ (IFN-γ) was evaluated in 107 septic and 68 non-septic patients from five academic health centers using blood samples collected on days 1, 4 and 7 following ICU admission...

This paper introduces an n-type pseudo-static gain cell (PS-nGC) embedded within dynamic random-access memory (eDRAM) for high-speed processing-in-memory (PIM) applications. The PS-nGC leverages a two-transistor (2T) gain cell and employs an n-type pseudo-static leakage compensation (n-type PSLC) circuit to significantly extend the eDRAM's retention time. The implementation of a homogeneous NMOS-based 2T gain cell not only reduces write access times but also benefits from a boosted write wordline technique...

Metabolic network intertwines with cancerous signaling and drug responses. Malonate is a prevailing metabolite in cancer and a competitive inhibitor of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH). Recent studies showed that malonate induced reactive oxygen species (ROS)-dependent apoptosis in neuroblastoma cells, but protected cells from ischemia-reperfusion injury. We here revealed that malonate differentially regulated cell death and survival in cancer cells. While high-dose malonate triggered ROS-dependent apoptosis, the low-dose malonate induced autophagy and conferred resistance to multiple chemotherapeutic agents...
