Open AccessAPI5 confers cancer stem cell-like properties through the FGF2-NANOG axis
Immune selection drives the evolution of tumor cells toward an immune-resistant and cancer stem cell (CSC)-like phenotype. We reported that apoptosis inhibitor-5 (API5) acts as an immune escape factor, which h...

Novel strategy for a bispecific antibody: induction of dual target internalization and degradation
Activation of the extensive cross-talk among the receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), particularly ErbB family-Met cross-talk, has emerged as a likely source of drug resistance. Notwithstanding brilliant successe...

Comparison of the Three Filter Algorithms for Detection of Electrically-Evoked Short-Latency Responses in Retinal Ganglion Cells
When retinal ganglion cells are stimulated ex vivo by electrical current, short latency responses (within 30 ms) and long latency responses (over 30 ms) are evoked. The short-latency response is suspected to b...

Enhancement in High-Field J c Properties and the Flux Pinning Mechanism of MgB2 Thin Films on Crystalline SiC Buffer Layers
We have studied the influence of crystalline SiC buffer layers on the critical current density and on the flux pinning mechanism in MgB2 thin films. Crystalline SiC buffer layers were deposited on the Al2O3 (0001...

High Critical Current Densities in MgB2 Films Grown on Hastelloy Tape by Hybrid Physical-Chemical Vapor Deposition
We report on the high critical current densities in MgB2 films directly grown on Hastelloy tapes without any buffer layer by using the hybrid physical-chemical vapor deposition method. MgB2 films were formed by r...

Enhanced Magnetic Transition of Core-Shell Cobalt-Platinum Nanoalloys
Synthesis of ‘solid solution’ and ‘core-shell’ types of well defined Co-Pt based nanoalloys smaller than 10nm have been achieved by redox transmetalation reactions. This redox transmetalation are selectively o...

Cell cycle and immune-related processes are significantly altered in chronic GVHD
Currently, the pathogenesis of chronic GVHD is unclear. To elucidate the molecular characteristics underlying chronic GVHD, we analyzed the gene expression profiles of 21 mononuclear cell samples from allogene...

Time-resolved PIV investigation on the unsteadiness of a low reynolds number confined im**ing jet
The flow characteristics in a confined slot jet im**ing on a flat plate were investigated in low Reynolds number regime by using time-resolved Particle Image Velocimetry technique. The jet Reynolds number wa...

SQUID Sensor Emulator for Magnetocardiography System
Magnetocardiography (MCG) signal is measured with the use of a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) with a flux-locked loop (FLL). The FLL circuit is a feedback circuit connected to the SQUID se...

Restoration of Magnetocardiography Signal Using Principal Component Analysis and Artificaial Neural Network
Magnetocardiogram (MCG) is a biomagnetic field that is produced by cardiac electrical activity. The MCG signal can be measured with the use of a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID). A two-dimen...

Distinct spinon and holon dispersions in photoemission spectral functions from one-dimensional SrCuO2
Spin and charge are inseparable traits of an electron, but in one-dimensional solids, theory predicts their separation into collective modes—as independent excitation quanta (or particles) called spinons and h...

Improved therapeutic outcomes of DLBCL after introduction of rituximab in Korean patients
The addition of rituximab to cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP) has been shown to improve the outcome in all age groups with newly diagnosed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL)...

Matrix attachment region from the chicken lysozyme locus reduces variability in transgene expression and confers copy number-dependence in transgenic rice plants
Matrix-attachment regions (MARs) may function as domain boundaries and partition chromosomes into independently regulated units. In this study, BP-MAR, a 1.3-kb upstream fragment of the 5′MAR flanking the chic...

Histological and functional aspects of different regions of the rabbit vagina
Relatively little data is available on regional differences in both morphological and functional studies of vaginal smooth muscle in the rabbit. Histological and in vitro strip studies were performed upon the vag...

The Role of Endothelin-1 as Predictor of the Symptomatic Vasospasm in Acute Stage of Subarachnoid Haemorrhage
Up to now, the pathogenesis of delayed cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) is unclear and seems to be a multifactorial event [8, 10]. Recently, endothelin-1 (ET-1) has been well known as one o...
