Selectins are adhesion receptors that normally recognize certain vascular mucin-type glycoproteins bearing the carbohydrate structure sialyl-Lewisx. The clinical prognosis and metastatic progression of many epithelial carcinomas has been correlated independently with production of tumor mucins and with enhanced expression of sialyl-Lewisx. Metastasis is thought to involve the formation of tumor-platelet-leukocyte emboli and their interactions with the endothelium of distant organs. We provide a

Deep learning has achieved significant improvement in various machine learning tasks including image recognition, speech recognition, machine translation and etc. Inspired by the huge success of the paradigm, there have been lots of tries to apply deep learning algorithms to data analytics problems with big data including traffic flow prediction. However, there has been no attempt to apply the deep learning algorithms to the analysis of air traffic data. This paper investigates the effectiveness

Caught in a web: Photo-cross-linkable temperature-responsive polymer-based nanofiber webs have been synthesized that have the ability to capture, encapsulate, and release cells by dynamically transforming the fibrous structure into hydrogel-like structures by wrapping, swelling, and deswelling processes in response to external temperature changes (see picture).

A contrast agent jet from LA to RA toward the inferior vena cava with channel-like appearance of the IAS on CT images confirms the presence of a PFO.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The exact role of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) in pathophysiology, and the mechanisms regulating its expression are poorly understood. The CFTR gene is known to be genetically or epigenetically associated with several cancers. In the present study, the methylation status of the promoter region of the CFTR gene and its expression in primary non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) were investigated. METHODS: The methylation status of the promo

We recently reported that continuous exposure, for 8 weeks, of extremely low frequency (ELF) magnetic field (MF) of 0.1 or 0.5 mT might induce testicular germ cell apoptosis in BALB/c mice. In that report, the ELF MF exposure did not significantly affect the body weight or testicular weight, but significantly increased the incidence of testicular germ cell death. In the present study, we aimed to further characterize the effect of a 16-week continuous exposure to ELF MF of 14 or 200 microT on te

In women fasted for 84–90 hours during week 16–22 of gestation, the concentration of human chorionic somatomammotropin (HCS) in maternal plasma increased by 30–40%. The level of HCS in amniotic fluid obtained after 90 hours of starvation did not differ from that observed in non-fasted subjects.
