Toll-like receptor 9 expression is associated with breast cancer sensitivity to the growth inhibitory effects of bisphosphonates in vitro and in vivo
<h3>Abstract</h3><div><p>Bisphosphonates are standard treatments for bone metastases. When given in the adjuvant setting, they reduce breast cancer mortality and recurrence in bone but only among post-menopausal patients. ... -
PSB33 sustains photosystem II D1 protein under fluctuating light conditions
<p>On Earth, solar irradiance varies as the sun rises and sets over the horizon, and sunlight is thus in constant fluctuation, following a slow dark–low–high–low–dark curve. Optimal plant growth and development are ... -
Report of a novel missense mutation in the MECP2 gene in a middle-aged man with intellectual disability syndrome
Exome sequencing revealed the cause of our 35-year-old male patient's progressive and severe intellectual and motor disability, namely a previously undescribed missense mutation of MECP2. -
Enhancing cross-border M&A performance through diaspora networks
43rd European International Business Academy Conference (2017-12-15T00:00:00)<p>This paper explores conceptually how diaspora networks influence cross-border M&As in Africa. The paper seeks to build on the network perspective and contributes by developing a theoretical model and testable propositions ... -
Whole-genome sequencing illuminates multifaceted targets of selection to humic substances in Eurasian perch
Extreme environments are inhospitable to the majority of species, but some organisms are able to survive in such hostile conditions due to evolutionary adaptations. For example, modern bony fishes have colonized various ... -
Bayesian parameter constraints for neutron star masses and radii using X-ray timing observations of accretion-powered millisecond pulsars
We present a Bayesian method to constrain the masses and radii of neutron stars (NSs) using the information encoded in the X-ray pulse profiles of accreting millisecond pulsars. We model the shape of the pulses using "oblate ... -
Retroviral analysis reveals the ancient origin of Kihnu native sheep in Estonia: implications for breed conservation
Native animal breeds constitute an invaluable pool of genetic resources in a changing environment. Discovering native breeds and safeguarding their genetic diversity through specific conservation programs is therefore of ... -
The effect of phytic acid on enzymatic degradation of dentin
We evaluated the effect of phytic acid on matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)- or cysteine cathepsin (CC)-mediated dentin degradation. Demineralized dentin beams were divided into five groups (n = 12) and treated with 1%, 2%, ... -
Usefulness of the CHA2DS2-VASc and HAS-BLED Scores in Predicting the Risk of Stroke Versus Intracranial Bleeding in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation (from the FibStroke Study)
<p>CHA2DS2-VASc and HAS-BLED scores stratify the risk of thromboembolic and bleeding events respectively in patients with atrial fibrillation. There is only little information on how they differentiate which of the 2 ... -

<p>The aim of the article is to offer a base for discussions on educational equality from the viewpoint of changes in the world causing widening disparities between pupils and students. The essence and possibilities of ... -
The X-ray properties of Be/X-ray pulsars in quiescence
Observations of accreting neutron stars (NSs) with strong magnetic fields can be used not only for studying the accretion flow interaction with the NS magnetospheres, but also for understanding the physical processes inside ... -
Cardiac Actions of a Small Molecule Inhibitor Targeting GATA4-NKX2-5 Interaction
Transcription factors are fundamental regulators of gene transcription, and many diseases, such as heart diseases, are associated with deregulation of transcriptional networks. In the adult heart, zinc-finger transcription ... -
Residue Network Involved in the Allosteric Regulation of Cystathionine β-Synthase Domain-Containing Pyrophosphatase by Adenine Nucleotides
<p>Inorganic pyrophosphatase containing regulatory cystathionine β-synthase (CBS) domains (CBS-PPase) is inhibited by adenosine monophosphate (AMP) and adenosine diphosphate and activated by adenosine triphosphate ... -
On the Collisional Disalignment of Dust Grains in Illuminated and Shaded Regions of IC 63
Interstellar dust grain alignment causes polarization from UV to mm wavelengths, allowing the study of the geometry and strength of the magnetic field. Over the last couple of decades, observations and theory have led to ... -
The Cultivation of Emotions in the Press. Searching for ‘Education of the Heart’ in German-Language Digital Newspaper Collections.
<p>In early nineteenth-century German-speaking Europe, the press was a key cultural forum, in which emotions were discussed in public through newly emerging journalistic practices and discourses. The era of educational ... -
