Trilingual families language strategies: potential predictors and effect on trilingual exposure

Author(s): Quirk E; Hadeed N; Byers-Heinlein K;

Family language strategies are approaches that parents adopt for language use with their multilingual children. In bilingual contexts, these strategies influence children's language exposure and development (Macleod et al., 2022). In the more complex context of trilingualism, how families settle on strategies and their relationship with exposure may d ...

Distributed adaptive sliding mode control with deep recurrent neural network for cooperative robotic system in automated fiber placement

Author(s): Zhu N; Xie WF;

In this article, a distributed control strategy using an adaptive sliding mode controller (ASMC) is proposed for a 13-degree-of-freedom (13-DOF) cooperative robotic system in the field of automated fiber placement (AFP). A distributed control structure with event-triggered mechanism is developed to guarantee the desired cooperation performance and reduce ...

Repurposing Sigma-1 Receptor-Targeting Drugs for Therapeutic Advances in Neurodegenerative Disorders

Author(s): Eskandari K; Bélanger SM; Lachance V; Kourrich S;

Neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Huntington's disease, due to their multifaced and complicated nature, remain uncurable and impose substantial financial and human burdens on society. Therefore, developing new innovative therapeutic strategies is vital. In this context, drug repurposing has emerged as a promisi ...

Real-time motion detection using dynamic mode decomposition

Author(s): Mignacca M; Brugiapaglia S; Bramburger JJ;

Dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) is a numerical method that seeks to fit time-series data to a linear dynamical system. In doing so, DMD decomposes dynamic data into spatially coherent modes that evolve in time according to exponential growth/decay or with a fixed frequency of oscillation. A widespread application of DMD has been to video, where one inter ...

Heterologous Expression of Thermostable Endoglucanases from Rasamsonia emersonii: A Paradigm Shift in Biomass Hydrolysis

Author(s): Raheja Y; Singh V; Gaur VK; Tsang A; Chadha BS;

In this study, two thermostable endoglucanases (Rem_GH5EG and Rem_GH7EG) from Rasamsonia emersonii were heterologously expressed in Pichia pastoris and characterized to evaluate their potential for industrial biomass saccharification. Rem_GH5EG demonstrated markedly superior catalytic efficiency toward barley ß-glucan (kcat/Km = 6.3 × 10-3/mg mL/min), whi ...

Sound degradation type differentially affects neural indicators of cognitive workload and speech tracking

Author(s): Gagné N; Greenlaw KM; Coffey EBJ;

Hearing-in-noise (HIN) is a challenging task that is essential to human functioning in social, vocational, and educational contexts. Successful speech perception in noisy settings is thought to rely in part on the brain's ability to enhance neural representations of attended speech. In everyday HIN situations, important features of speech (i.e., pitch ...

Modulatory effects of M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor on inflammatory profiles of human memory T helper cells

Author(s): Gholizadeh F; Hajiaghayi M; Choi JS; Little SR; Rahbari N; Kargar M; Brotto K; Han E; Shih SCC; Darlington PJ;

Memory T helper (Th) cells, generated in response to immunogenic challenges, are crucial in orchestrating adaptive immune responses. Acetylcholine (ACh), a key neurotransmitter of the parasympathetic nervous system, modulates immune function via muscarinic ACh receptors (mAChRs). This study inves ...

Exploring interaction paradigms for segmenting medical images in virtual reality

Author(s): Jones Z; Drouin S; Kersten-Oertel M;

Purpose: Virtual reality (VR) can offer immersive platforms for segmenting complex medical images to facilitate a better understanding of anatomical structures for training, diagnosis, surgical planning, and treatment evaluation. These applications rely on user interaction within the VR environment to manipulate and interpret medical data. However, the op ...

The enterobactin biosynthetic intermediate 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid is a competitive inhibitor of the Escherichia coli isochorismatase EntB

Author(s): Bin X; Pawelek PD;

The Escherichia coli enterobactin biosynthetic protein EntB is a bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes hydrolysis of isochorismate via its N-terminal isochorismatase (IC) domain, and then transfers phosphopantetheinylated 2,3-DHB to EntF via the EntB C-terminal aryl carrier protein (ArCP) domain. Here we used a fluorescence anisotropy binding assay to invest ...
