In this study, we aimed to explore new downstream effectors of TWIST1/2 in inducing epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in gastric cancer. Bioinformatic data mining was performed using data in The Cancer Genome Atlas Stomach Adenocarcinoma. Survival curves were generated using Kaplan–Meier plotter....

High-finesse fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) Fabry-Perot interferometers (FPIs) have shown great promise as sensitive ultrasonic sensors. However, the fabrication process of the sensors usually introduces birefringence to the fiber, which makes the sensor operation sensitive to the polarization of the p...

In the cathodic protection system with common anode for multiple pipelines, the protection potentials of different pipeline positions are different. Under-protection at the end of long-distance pipeline and increasing current output can cause overprotection of other joint protection pipelines. In or...

Biochar has been shown to influence soil microbial communities in terms of their abundance and diversity. However, the relationship among microbial abundance, structure and C metabolic traits is not well studied under biochar application. Here it was hypothesized that the addition of biochar with in...

Studies have demonstrated that microRNA 185 may be a promising therapeutic target in liver cancer. However, its role in hepatocellular carcinoma is largely unknown. In this study, the proliferation of human HepG2 cells was inhibited by transfection of microRNA 185 mimics. Cell-cycle analysis reveale...

Abstract Purpose In total knee arthroplasty (TKA), it remains unclear which patients benefit from correction versus restoration of native knee alignment. The Coronal Plane Alignment of the Knee (CPAK) classification system was introduced in 2021 to describe native alignment, helping to characterise...

Abstract: Straw return is an important management tool for tackling and promoting soil nutrient conservation and improving crop yield in Huang-Huai-Hai Plain, China. Although the incorporation of maize straw with deep plowing and rotary tillage practices are widespread in the region, only few studie...

Agropyron cristatum, a wild relative of common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), provides many desirable genetic resources for wheat improvement, such as tolerance to cold, drought, and disease. To transfer and utilize these desirable genes, in this study, two wheat-A. cristatum derivatives II-13 and II...

Agropyron cristatum (2n=4x=28, PPPP) is a wild relative of common wheat which contains a large number of desirable genes that can be exploited for wheat improvement. Wheat–A. cristatum 2P alien translocation lines exhibit many desirable traits, such as small flag leaves, a high spikelet number and d...

ABSTRACT The global fin trade poses a significant threat to shark populations; many species of shark are at risk of extinction due to overfishing and unsustainable practices. This study examines the fin trade in Singapore, a globally significant fin trading hub, market and transit point. Using DNA b...
