Identification of microRNAs involved in chilling response of maize by high-throughput sequencing
Chilling stress impedes growth, development, and productivity of maize (Zea mays L.). MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play critical roles in plant responses to biotic and abiotic stresses at the post-transcriptional level. Al...

Open AccessWhole-genome analysis of a patient with early-stage small-cell lung cancer
We performed whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of a case of early-stage small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) to analyze the genomic features. WGS revealed a lot of single-nucleotide variations (SNVs), small insertion/del...

14-3-3 eta depletion sensitizes glioblastoma cells to irradiation due to enhanced mitotic cell death
14-3-3 proteins have important roles in several cellular processes such as cell cycle progression, the DNA-damage checkpoint and apoptosis. We have shown previously that depleting 14-3-3η, a 14-3-3 isoform, en...

A genome-wide association study of survival in small-cell lung cancer patients treated with irinotecan plus cisplatin chemotherapy
We conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) influencing overall survival (OS) of small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients. We prospectively collected bl...

A genome-wide association study for irinotecan-related severe toxicities in patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer
The identification of patients who are at high risk for irinotecan-related severe diarrhea and neutropenia is clinically important. We conducted the first genome-wide association study (GWAS) to search for nov...

Extracting muon momentum scale corrections for hadron collider experiments
We present a simple method for the extraction of corrections for bias in the measurement of the momentum of muons in hadron collider experiments. Such bias can originate from a variety of sources such as detec...

Open AccessImproved determination of the sample composition of dimuon events produced in \(p\bar{p}\) collisions at \(\sqrt{s}=1.96\) TeV
We use a new method to estimate with 5% accuracy the contribution of pion and kaon in-flight-decays to the dimuon data set acquired with the CDF detector. Based on this improved estimate, we show that the tota...
