Open AccessRole of integrin-linked kinase in regulating the protein stability of the MUC1-C oncoprotein in pancreatic cancer cells
MUC1-C overexpression has been associated with the progression of pancreatic tumors by promoting the aggressive and metastatic phenotypes. As MUC1 is a STAT3 target gene, STAT3 plays a major role in regulating MU...

TGFβ promotes mesenchymal phenotype of pancreatic cancer cells, in part, through epigenetic activation of VAV1
The highly homeostasis-resistant nature of cancer cells leads to their escape from treatment and to liver metastasis, which in turn makes pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) difficult to treat, especially ...

Regulation of oncogenic KRAS signaling via a novel KRAS-integrin-linked kinase-hnRNPA1 regulatory loop in human pancreatic cancer cells
Integrin-linked kinase (ILK) is a mediator of aggressive phenotype in pancreatic cancer. On the basis of our finding that knockdown of either KRAS or ILK has a reciprocal effect on the other’s expression, we h...

Open AccessPHRF1 promotes genome integrity by modulating non-homologous end-joining
Methylated histone readers are critical for chromatin dynamics, transcription, and DNA repair. Human PHRF1 contains a plant homeodomain (PHD) that recognizes methylated histones and a RING domain, which ubiqui...

Investigation of the Effect of Acoustic Pressure and Sonication Duration on Focused-Ultrasound Induced Blood-Brain Barrier Disruption
The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of the ultrasound peak pressure and sonication duration on blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption, and also seek for the optimized sonication parameter t...

Constraint Handling in Genetic Algorithms: The Set Partitioning Problem
In this paper we present a genetic algorithm-based heuristic for solving the set partitioning problem (SPP). The SPP is an important combinatorial optimisation problem used by many airlines as a mathematical m...

A Genetic Algorithm for the Multidimensional Knapsack Problem
In this paper we present a heuristic based upon genetic algorithms for the multidimensional knapsack problem. A heuristic operator which utilises problem-specific knowledge is incorporated into the standard ge...

Effects of convection instability due to incompatibility between ocean dynamics and surface forcings
The study demonstrates that an incompatibility between a surface temperature climatology and a given ocean model, into which the climatology is assimilated via Haney restoration, can cause model ocean climate ...

Thermodynamic feedback between clouds and the ocean surface mixed layer
A cloud—ocean planetary boundary layer (OPBL) feedback mechanism is presented and tested in this paper. Water vapor, evaporated from the ocean surface or transported by the large—scale air flow, often forms co...

Relationship between thermally forced surface wind and sea surface temperature gradient
An important part of the influence of the oceans on the atmosphere is through direct radiation, sensible heat flux and release of latent heat of evaporation, whereby all of these processes are directly related...

An instability theory of air-sea interaction for coastal upwelling
A surface wind (seabreeze), thermally generated by differential sea surface temperature, is introduced to Gill-Clarke’s model (1974) through wind stress for investigating the effects of seabreeze on coastal up...
