Contrasting treeline dynamics of pine and birch in response to climate warming in the Karakoram
Pine benefited from a warming climate with increasing recruitment and upslope shifts of alpine treeline but birch treelines were mostly static highlighting the influence of other confounding, local factors.

Open AccessSMYD3 promotes hepatocellular carcinoma progression by methylating S1PR1 promoters
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignancies worldwide. SET and MYND domain-containing protein 3 (SMYD3) has been shown to promote the progression of various types of human cancers, in...

Open AccessThermogenic responses in Eurasian Tree Sparrow (Passer montanus) to seasonal acclimatization and temperature-photoperiod acclimation
Small birds in temperate habitats must either migrate, or adjust aspects of their morphology, physiology and behavior to cope with seasonal change in temperature and photoperiod. It is, however, difficult to a...

Open Access17beta-estradiol promotes the odonto/osteogenic differentiation of stem cells from apical papilla via mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway
Estrogen plays an important role in the osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells, while stem cells from apical papilla (SCAP) can contribute to the formation of dentin/bone-like tissues. To date, t...

Expression of a human lactoferrin N-lobe in Nicotiana benthmiana with potato virus X-based agroinfection
A DNA fragment encoding the N-terminal half (N-lobe) of the human lactoferrin (hLfN) gene has now been cloned into recombinant Potexvirus potato virus X (PVX) vector and expressed in Nicotiana benthmiana using ag...
