PIPing on lysosome tubes.

چکیده
The role of lysosomes in important cellular responses, including phagocytosis, cell surface repair, and autophagy underlies a number of human diseases. Furthermore, the role of the lysosomal surface in TORC1 signalling has revealed unexpected properties of these organelles. In this issue, Sridhar et al (2013) uncover an important role for PI(4)P for lysosome function under normal nutrient conditions and after prolonged nutrient deprivation. Ana Maria Cuervo, the late Dennis Shields, and colleagues (Sridhar et al, 2013) conclude that PI4 kinase IIIb on the surface of the lysosome controls the fidelity of sorting from the lysosome, and is required for autophagic lysosome reformation (ALR). These novel findings provide important insights into the complexities of the lipid composition of the lysosome, and how these lipids may control lysosome function. Lysosomes, traditionally thought of as inert, terminal endocytic compartments, are in fact dynamic organelles. In addition to their function in degradation of cargo ranging from small vesicles to whole phagosomes and autophago-

Comparison of Fracture Response Of Preflawed Tubes Under Internal Static and Detonation Loading
The role of loading rate and fluid properties in the fracture of piping under internal explosions is an important issue for designers and accident analysis. This was examined by fracture experiments on thin-walled and preflawed aluminum 6061-T6 tubes. The tubes were 1) statically loaded with oil, 2) statically loaded with nitrogen, and 3) dynamically loaded with gaseous detonations traveling at...
متن کاملStructural Response of Piping to Internal Gas Detonation
Detonation waves in gas-filled piping or tubing pose special challenges in analysis and prediction of structural response. The challenges arise due the nature of the detonation process and the role of fluid-structure interaction in determining the propagation and arrest of fractures. Over the past ten years, our laboratory has been engaged in studying this problem and developing methodologies f...
متن کاملLarge Amplitude Wave Propagation in Arteries and Veins
The problem of finite amplitude wave propagation in fluid-filled distensible tubes, although of potentially wide general interest in industrial piping systems, finds particularly important application in biomedical circulatory phenomena. Mathematical and laboratory studies of such coupled fluid-shell interactions have led to novel contributions in the field of Biomechanics, an area of continuin...
متن کاملModular and Offsite Construction of Piping: Current Barriers and Route
To investigate current practices and identify challenges of piping prefabrication, this paper conducts a comprehensive survey to mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) contractors. This paper is performed in three main steps. First, the current state of piping prefabrication, the attitude of MEP contractors to piping prefabrication, and the challenges of piping prefabrication are identified...
متن کاملModeling of piping erosion in loess soils
Extended abstract Introduction Piping erosion is one of the common water erosions usually occurs in soil with low infiltration and soluble minerals that finally changes landscape. Different factors control its occurrence and development. To predict piping occurrence/hazard through modeling, effective factors should be prioritized and considered as inputs of the model. The present study...
