Objective: To detect and evaluate the role of the newly recognized human coronavirus (HCoV)-NL63 and HCoV-HKU1 as aetiologic agents of acute respiratory tract infections in hospitalized Jordanian children younger than 5 years of age. Methods: Between December 2003 and May 2004, a total of 326 nasopharyngeal aspirates were collected from Jordanian children hospitalized with acute respiratory tra...

FBXW7 is a haploinsufficient tumor suppressor with loss-of-function mutations occurring in human cancers. FBXW7 inactivation causes genomic instability, but the mechanism remains elusive. Here we show that FBXW7 facilitates nonhomologous end-joining (NHEJ) repair and that FBXW7 depletion causes radiosensitization. In response to ionizing radiation, ATM phosphorylates FBXW7 at serine 26 to recru...

Studies on therapeutic drug disposition in humans have shown significant alterations as the result of pregnancy. However, it is not known whether pesticide metabolic capacity changes throughout pregnancy, which could affect exposure of the developing brain. We sought to determine the effect of pregnancy on the expression of hepatic enzymes involved in the metabolism of pesticides. Livers were c...

Abstract The annual average cost of maintaining a racehorse will typically outweigh its earning, making it important that the horse performs above average. goal this study was to investigate if age or experience level could be associated with performance. This observed pre-racing Quarter Horses (n = 1,033) behavior during one racing season at Delta Downs racetrack (Vinton, LA). horses were plac...

We performed a logistic regression analysis to evaluate the predictive value of ultrasonongraphy-detectable features of cervical lymph nodes in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. The goal of this analysis was to determine whether certain ultrasound features were useful for accurate differential diagnosis of cervical lymph nodes metastasis with underlying nasopharyngeal carcinoma. In this i...
