In the first study, the values recorded by the SHSP were found highly correlated with those provided by the Corneometer

. The second study allowed to observe significant differences in skin hydration of both sites at all times, as compared to values obtained before the application of the gel. Differences between both sites were observed, the…[Read more]

The second part focuses on presenting the recent literature on the use of the different families of nanovectors to deliver anticancer molecules for chemotherapy, radiotherapy, nucleic acid-based therapy, modulation of the tumor microenvironment and immunotherapy.

This review will help the readers to better appreciate the complexity of…[Read more]

ll cycle.To characterize the salivary microbiota in patients at different progressive histological stages of gastric carcinogenesis and identify microbial markers for detecting gastric cancer, two hundred and ninety-three patients were grouped into superficial gastritis (SG; n = 101), atrophic gastritis (AG; n = 93), and gastric cancer (GC; n =…[Read more]

The southern hatchlings grew faster than the northern hatchlings when incubated at the southern nest environment, but not after incubation at the northern nest environment. These phenomena likely reflect local adaptation of embryonic development to their nest environments among populations in lizards. In addition, the southern hatchlings had…[Read more]

Skin scarring, the end result of adult wound healing, is detrimental to tissue form and function. Engrailed-1 lineage-positive fibroblasts (EPFs) are known to function in scarring, but Engrailed-1 lineage-negative fibroblasts (ENFs) remain poorly characterized. Using cell transplantation and transgenic mouse models, we identified a dermal ENF…[Read more]

More generally, we demonstrate the utility of the FLEX pipeline for performing robust comparative evaluations of CRISPR screens or methods for processing them.

Both daily and event-driven (ED) pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) have been demonstrated to be highly effective among men who have sex with men (MSM). Prevention-effective adherence…[Read more]

One of the increasingly discussed topics in forensic pathology is that concerning the quantification of the postmortem interval (PMI). The estimation of the time interval between the death of a person and the discovery of the body is extremely complicated, as it is affected by the influence of many factors, both endogenous and exogenous. With the…[Read more]

Solubilized particulate organic matter (POM) rather than dissolved organic matter (DOM) has been speculated to be the major carbon and energy sources for heterotrophic prokaryotes in the ocean. However, the direct evidence is still lack. Here we characterized microbial transport proteins of POM collected from both euphotic (75 m, deep chlorophyll…[Read more]

These data have been accessed over 2500 times by over 100 distinct users. Median length of each user session is approximately 4.9 minutes. Because our lab information system does not persistently store tracking information while our system does, we have been able to iteratively recalculate time to result values for each tracking stop as workflows…[Read more]

i-arid area of the Loess Plateau, Northwest China.The intercropping of legume and cereal crops could affect crop roots growth. The relationship among intercropping, root morphology and phosphorus (P) acquisition under different P levels is still unclear. With field experiments and a rhizo-box experiment, we examined the changes of yield, biomass,…[Read more]

The superiorities and current achievements of heterostructure materials in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), sodium-ion batteries (SIBs), lithium-sulfur batteries (Li-S batteries), supercapacitors, and other energy storage devices are discussed. Finally, the authors conclude with the current challenges and perspectives of the heterostructure materials…[Read more]

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most lethal human cancers. It thrives in a malnourished environment; however, little is known about the mechanisms by which PDAC cells actively promote aerobic glycolysis to maintain their metabolic needs. Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) was used to identify differentially expressed miRNAs. The…[Read more]
