Fatty acid synthase (FASN) is frequently overexpressed in human breast cancer and has emerged as a potential therapeutic target. Resveratrol has been shown to inhibit FASN activity in vitro through both fast-reversible and slow-irreversible mechanisms. In this study, resveratrol reduced intracellula...

ABSTRACT Objective Titanium mini‐plates are applied in unilateral open‐door laminoplasty to secure the elevated laminae and prevent re‐closure. Whereas the conventional technique fixates every level, some surgeons plate only alternate levels to curb implant costs. Whether they could achieve similar...

Suitability evaluation is essential and first step of developing citrus production. Based on GIS data base, a computer-running system was established to judge the suitability of planting area liking human expert. Prototyping rule-based was adopted to construct knowledge base of this system.

<h4>Background</h4>Plasma fibrin d-dimer has been taken as a marker for thrombus. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between d-dimer (DD) levels and left atrial spontaneous echo contrast (SEC)/left atrial thrombus (LAT).<h4>Methods</h4>We identified clinic...

The liquid cooling battery thermal management system (BTMS) is crucial for ensuring battery thermal safety. To address the limitations of inadequate cooling performance in conventional uniform channel, a liquid cooling system based on triply periodic minimal surfaces is proposed, with the Iwp struct...

Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is one of the leading causes of end-stage renal disease. Verbascoside is a ubiquitous phenylethanoid glycoside with potent anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and hypoglycemic properties. This study determined the renoprotective effect of verbascoside against DKD, as well a...

We present an numerical and experimental analysis of a Yb:YAG thin disk regenerative amplifier. Group velocity dispersion, third order dispersion, and self-phase modulation (SPM) effects are considered in the simulations of the amplification process. By virtue of the simulations, a compact femtoseco...
