Expression of adiponectin in the subchondral bone of lumbar facet joints with...
Abstract Background Osteoarthritis research has been most commonly performed in the setting of the articular cartilage of the knee. To the best of our knowledge, no studies have... -
Identification of plasma microRNA expression changes in multiple system atrop...
Abstract MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous small (18–25 nt), single-stranded, non-coding RNAs that play key roles in post-transcriptional gene expression regulation. The... -
Visualization of guided and leaky wave behaviors in an indium tin oxide metal...
We explored the use of the optically transparent semiconductor indium tin oxide (ITO) as an alternative to optically opaque metals for the fabrication of photonic structures in... -
The protective effects of Resveratrol against radiation-induced intestinal in...
Abstract Background Intestinal injury is a potential cause of death after high-dose radiation exposure. The aim of the present study was to investigate the protective effects of... -
Structurally isolated photoactuation of graphene-mixed temperature-responsive...
Abstract This paper presents fabrication and actuation methods for a soft microrobot with a hybrid structure composed of soft microactuators and a rigid supporting body. This... -
Transgenic Expression of miR-222 Disrupts Intestinal Epithelial Regeneration ...
Abstract Defects in intestinal epithelial integrity occur commonly in various pathologies. miR-222 is implicated in many aspects of cellular function and plays an important role... -
Disrupting USP5/Cav3.2 interactions protects female mice from mechanical hype...
Abstract Cav3.2Â T-type calcium channels are important for the signaling of nociceptive information in the primary afferent pain pathway. During neuropathy and peripheral... -
Faster and less phototoxic 3D fluorescence microscopy using a versatile compr...
Three-dimensional fluorescence microscopy based on Nyquist sampling of focal planes faces harsh trade-offs between acquisition time, light exposure, and signal-to-noise. We... -
Umbilical cord/placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cells inhibit fibrogenic act...
Abstract Background The lack of anti-fibrotic agents targeting intestinal fibrosis is a large unmet need in inflammatory bowel diseases, including Crohn’s disease and ulcerative... -
Understanding coupling dynamics of public transportation networks
Abstract Subway and bus networks work as an integrated multiplex transportation system and play an indispensable role in modern big cities. Even though a variety of works have... -
Modulation of posterior intestinal mucosal proteome in rainbow trout (Oncorhy...
Abstract Yersinia ruckeri is the causative agent of enteric redmouth disease in salmonids. In fish, the intestine represents an important site of nutrient uptake, hostâ pathogen... -
Circular RNA hsa_circ_0008305 (circPTK2) inhibits TGF-β-induced epithelial-me...
Abstract Background TGF-β promotes tumor invasion and metastasis through inducing epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Circular RNAs... -
The cysteine protease ATG4B of Trichinella spiralis promotes larval invasion ...
Abstract The cysteine proteases of parasites are vital contributors that induce parasite migration to and invasion of host tissue. In this study, we analysed the cysteine... -
The role of cytoplasmic p57 in invasion of hepatocellular carcinoma
Abstract Background Our previous research suggested that p57 downregulation could accelerate the growth and invasion of hepatocellular carcinoma in vitro and in vivo. Aim To... -
Volumetric imaging and quantification of cytoarchitecture and myeloarchitectu...
We present volumetric imaging and computational techniques to quantify neuronal and myelin architecture with intrinsic scattering contrast. Using spectral / Fourier domain...
