Meaning, Opacity, and Function: An Observer-Relative Classification of Artifacts
Every working epistemic system – a research group, a software stack, a model with its operators – holds artifacts it uses without understanding: models invoked through interfaces, cryptographic routines run as black boxes, legacy code executed daily. Whether an artifact is unders...

Performance of Concrete with Mechanochemically Activated Rice Husk Ash-Based Organomineral Modifiers
This study evaluates a wet-activated multicomponent organomineral modifier for sustainable concrete. The modifier was produced by co-grinding Portland cement and rice husk ash (RHA) in the presence of Sika® ViscoCrete®-20HE and was subsequently combined with polypropylene fibers....

Ribosomal protein bL27 protects translating ribosomes from tmRNA-SmpB
Bacterial ribosomal protein bL27 is universally conserved, and its amino terminus is adjacent to the peptidyl transfer center, yet its roles in translation remain unclear. Combining genetics, biochemistry, and molecular dynamics, we show that bL27 has an unexpected role in preven...

The germ layer: foundation of mesenchymal stem cell therapeutic destiny
Abstract Stem cells represent a pivotal resource in clinical applications. Accumulating evidence indicates that their functional properties are closely associated with their tissue origin, particularly embryonic germ layer specification, which may govern the developmental heterog...
