Materials Science

A study has been made on improving the adhesion of a glass ionomer cement by the chemical treatment of dentin and enamel surfaces. The most effective surface conditioners were high molecular weight substances containing a multiplicity of fu...

Achieving high thermal conductivity of Al–50Si alloy through heat treatment and its microstructural evolution

Al–50Si alloys were prepared by powder extrusion and characterized for electronic packaging. The optimization of powder size, extrusion temperature, and heat treatment parameters was performed to enhance the microstructure and thermo-physic...

From neuromodulation to bone homeostasis: therapeutic targets of nerve growth factor in skeletal diseases

The skeletal system is an important support structure in the human body, and its homeostatic state is highly relevant to the development of a wide range of orthopaedic diseases. The search for key regulatory factors associated with skeletal...

Ratiometric near-infrared fluorescence probes for quantitative monitoring of mitochondrial pH dynamics in Drosophila melanogaster and HeLa cells during metformin treatment.

Quantum Computing Explained

A self-contained treatment of the fundamentals of quantum computing This clear, practical book takes quantum computing out of the realm of theoretical physics and teaches the fundamentals of the field to students and professionals who ha...

Quantum computing

The subject of quantum computing brings together ideas from classical information theory, computer science, and quantum physics. This review aims to summarize not just quantum computing, but the whole subject of quantum information theory. ...

CircUCK2(2,3) promotes cancer progression and enhances synergistic cytotoxicity of lenvatinib with EGFR inhibitors via activating CNIH4–TGFα–EGFR signaling

Abstract Background Circular (circ)RNAs have emerged as crucial contributors to cancer progression. Nonetheless, the expression regulation, biological functions, and underlying mechanisms of circRNAs in mediating hepatocellular carcinoma (H...

AMPA-Type Glutamate Receptors Associated With Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Subpopulations in Atherosclerosis and Vascular Injury

Objectives and Aims: Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are key constituents of both normal arteries and atherosclerotic plaques. They have an ability to adapt to changes in the local environment by undergoing phenotypic modulation. An im...

Unrevealing the dual role of paired box and sex determining region Y related high mobility group box in glioblastoma

Abstract This narrative review summarises glioblastoma (GBM), a very frequent invasive kind of brain tumour in the elderly that is extremely aggressive, resistant to treatment, and has a bad prognosis because of its substantial genetic and ...

Molecular Biology of Neuroblastoma

UNLABELLED: PURPOSE AND RESULTS: Neuroblastoma, the most common solid extracranial neoplasm in children, is remarkable for its clinical heterogeneity. Complex patterns of genetic abnormalities interact to determine the clinical phenotype. T...

Extracellular vesicles derived from mesenchymal stromal cells mitigate intestinal toxicity in a mouse model of acute radiation syndrome

Abstract Background Human exposure to high doses of radiation resulting in acute radiation syndrome and death can rapidly escalate to a mass casualty catastrophe in the event of nuclear accidents or terrorism. The primary reason is that the...

Differential Expression of Serum TUG1, LINC00657, miR-9, and miR-106a in Diabetic Patients With and Without Ischemic Stroke

Background: Ischemic stroke is one of the serious complications of diabetes. Non-coding RNAs are established as promising biomarkers for diabetes and its complications. The present research investigated the expression profiles of serum TUG1...

High helminthic co-infection in tuberculosis patients with undernutritional status in northeastern Ethiopia

Abstract Background Tuberculosis and parasitosis are the widely distributed diseases in Ethiopia with the leading cause of mortality and morbidity, respectively. There has been no information on the status of co-infections of tuberculosis a...
