    MiR-221 promotes the development of androgen independence in prostate cancer cells via downregulation of HECTD2 and RAB1A

    Hormone-sensitive prostate cancer typically progresses to castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) after the androgen deprivation therapy. We investigated the impact of microRNAs (miRs) in the transition of...

    A Prediction Model for Bacterial Etiology in Acute Exacerbations of COPD

    Bacteria play a leading role in acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), but we lack predictors of bacterial etiology. We developed a prediction model for infection with gram-negati...

    Inclusive semileptonic decays of polarized Λb Baryons into polarized τ-leptons

    We employ OPE techniques within HQET to calculate the inclusive semileptonic decays of polarized Λb baryons. Lepton mass effects are included which enables us to also discuss rates into polarized τ-leptons. We pr...

    Covariant trace formalism for heavy mesons-wave top-wave transitions

    Heavy meson,s- top-wave, weakb→c transitions are studied in the context of the heavy quark effective theory using covariant meson wave functions. We use the trace formalism to evaluate the weak transitions. As ex...

    Rapid, quantitative adipose conversion of chicken fibroblasts by high concentrations of chicken serum or plasma

    Rapid, quantitative adipose conversion of chicken fibroblasts occurs when these cells are cultured in undiluted commercial chicken serum or plasma. Fresh serum and plasma acquire this property after ageing.
