PTEN induces apoptosis and cavitation via HIF-2-dependent Bnip3 upregulation during epithelial lumen formation
The tumor suppressor phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) dephosphorylates PIP3 and antagonizes the prosurvival PI3K-Akt pathway. Targeted deletion of PTEN in mice led to early embryonic lethality. To elucida...

Grp78 as a therapeutic target for refractory head–neck cancer with CD24−CD44+ stemness phenotype
Cancer stem cells are refractory to conventional therapy, which result to cancer metastasis and chemo-radioresistance. Grp78 is known to have important roles in cytoprotection and tumorigenesis in several canc...

Missing fractions in heavy gases: Xe and CCl4?
The spin polarization of positive muons thermalized in Xe has been measured as a function of pressure up to 4660 Torr (6.1 atm) by the muon spin rotation (MSR) technique. At 4660 Torr, triplet muonium (F=1, M=...
