Preliminary treatment of phenanthrene in coking wastewater by a combined potassium ferrate and Fenton process
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in coking wastewater are difficult to remove due to their complex composition, poor biodegradability, and toxicity. In this work, the potassium ferrate process and the traditio...

Open AccessThe role of microbiota and inflammation in self-judgement and empathy: implications for understanding the brain-gut-microbiome axis in depression
The gut-brain axis includes bidirectional communication between intestinal microbiota and the central nervous system. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus spp. have been implicated in psychological health, such as d...

The \(B^{+} \rightarrow J/\psi\omega K^{+}\) reaction and \(D^{\ast} \bar{D}^{\ast}\) molecular states
We study the \( B^{+} \rightarrow J/\psi \omega K^{+}\)B+→J/ψωK+ reaction, and show that it is driven by the presence of two resonances, the X(3940) and X(3930), that are of molecular nature and couple most strongl...

Differing tumor-suppressor functions of Arf and p53 in murine basal cell carcinoma initiation and progression
Human basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) very frequently carry p53 mutations, and p53 loss markedly accelerates murine BCC carcinogenesis. We report here our studies of the mechanism by which p53 is activated to sup...

Open AccessHepatic carcinoma-associated fibroblasts induce IDO-producing regulatory dendritic cells through IL-6-mediated STAT3 activation
Although carcinoma-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in tumor microenvironments have a critical role in immune cell modulation, their effects on the generation of regulatory dendritic cells (DCs) are still unclear...
