Tumor cell resistance to apoptosis, which is triggered by many anti-tumor therapies, remains a major clinical problem. Therefore, development of more efficient therapies is a priority to improve cancer prognosis. We have previously shown that a cell-permeable peptide derived from the p120 Ras GTPase-activating protein (RasGAP), called TAT-RasGAP317-326, bears anti-malignant activities in vitro ...

OBJECTIVE This study was undertaken to determine the ability of history taking alone, compared with pregnancy testing, to identify early pregnancies among potential female measles vaccinees. METHODS As part of an institution-wide measles immunization program, 326 female health care workers (HCWs) who denied being pregnant underwent a urine pregnancy test prior to vaccination. RESULTS Of the...

The functionalization of UiO-67 with -NH2 groups enhances CO2 and CH4 adsorption at 1 bar and 298 K and positively influences the framework's interaction with water as evidenced by the significant enhancement of water vapour adsorption at 0.1 < P/P0 < 0.3 and 298 K.

CYP3A4 metabolizes many drugs on the market. Although transcriptional regulation of CYP3A4 is known to be tightly controlled by some nuclear receptors (NR) including vitamin D receptor (VDR/NR1I1), posttranscriptional regulation of CYP3A4 remains elusive. In this study, we show that noncoding microRNAs (miRNAs) may control posttranscriptional and transcriptional regulation of CYP3A4 by directly...

this comment is to show that theorem3.3 of dey and chung (1991) (multiparameter estimation intruncated power series distributions under the stein&apos;s loss.emph{commun. statist.-theory meth.,} {bf 20}, 309-326) may giveus misleading results. analytically and through simulation, weshow that the theorem does not improve the given estimator.

Antibiotic resistance has become a major health issue. Nosocomial infections and the prevalence of resistant pathogenic bacterial strains are rising steadily. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new classes of antibiotics effective on multi-resistant nosocomial pathogenic bacteria. We have previously shown that a cell-permeable peptide derived from the p120 Ras GTPase-activating prote...
