The Joint Picture Expert Group (JPEG) committee has been standardizing next-generation image compression, called JPEG XL, to meet the specific needs for a responsive web, wide color gamut, and high dynamic range. XL supports lossy lossless compression. A variable-sized discrete cosine transform (DCT) block is used partitioning method regarded as critical function performance of XL. current DCT ...

Sequences homologous to the canonical MHC class II (MHC-II) gene X box regulatory elements were identified within the HLA-DR subregion of the human MHC and termed X box-like (XL) sequences. Several XL box sequences were found to bind the MHC class II-specific transcription factors regulatory factor X and CIITA and were transcriptionally active. The histone code associated with the XL boxes and ...

BACKGROUND Genetic modifications can improve the therapeutic efficacy of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) transplantation in myocardial infarction. However, so far, the efficiency of MSC modification is very low. Seeking for a more efficient way of MSC modification, we investigated the possibility of employing the intercellular trafficking capacity of the herpes simplex virus type-1 tegument protein...

conclusions the analysis of the pro-apoptotic gene to anti-apoptotic gene expression ratio (bad /bcl-xl) confirmed that expression of the pro-apoptotic gene significantly decreased (p value ˂ 0.001) under the ischemia/reperfusion condition. in contrast, the expression of the anti-apoptotic gene increased after administration of fk-506 (p value ˂ 0.001). results the quantitative results of real-...

This study aims to evaluate the suitability of printed EFL materials an intensive foreign language training program a university in Indonesia context online learning and bring some considerations regarding developing suitable for virtual dimension learning. Twelve lecturers were involved this study. Their perceptions toward English collected quantitatively using questionnaires qualitatively thr...

KRAS mutations are frequently detected in human colorectal cancer and contribute to de novo apoptosis resistance and ultimately therapeutic failure. To overcome KRAS-mediated apoptosis resistance, the irreversible proteasome inhibitor, carfilzomib, was evaluated and found to potently induce Noxa, which was dependent upon c-Myc, and Bik. Isogenic mutant versus wild-type KRAS carcinoma cells show...

It has been suggested that genes that regulate apoptotic cell death may play an important role in determining the sensitivity of tumor cells to chemotherapy. We have recently cloned a member of the bcl-2 family, bcl-x. To test whether bcl-XL expression affects the sensitivity of tumor cells to chemotherapy, we have created stable cell lines overexpressing bcl-XL and have tested these cells for ...

Bcl-xL is an anti-apoptotic protein that is frequently found to be overexpressed in non-small cell lung cancer leading to an inhibition of apoptosis and poor prognosis. Recently, the role of miRNAs in regulating apoptosis and cell survival during tumorigenesis has become evident, with cancer cells showing perturbed expression of various miRNAs. In this study, we utilized miRNA microarrays to de...
