Comprehensive track-structure based evaluation of DNA damage by light ions from radiotherapy- relevant energies down to stopping
(2017-03-27)
Track structures and resulting DNA damage in human cells have been simulated for hydrogen, helium,
carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and neon ions with 0.25–256 MeV/u energy. The needed ion interaction cross sections have been ...
Contextual tumor suppressor function of T cell death-associated gene 8 (TDAG8) in hematological malignancies
(2017-12)
Background: Extracellular acidosis is a condition found within the tumor microenvironment due to inadequate blood perfusion, hypoxia, and altered tumor cell metabolism. Acidosis has pleiotropic effects on malignant progres‐ ...
Long Noncoding RNA Expression Signatures of Metastatic Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma and Their Prognostic Value
(2015)
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have recently been found to play important roles in various cancer types. The elucidation of genome-wide lncRNA expression patterns in metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) could reveal ...
Lack of K-Dependent Oxidative Stress in Cotton Roots Following Coronatine-Induced ROS Accumulation.
(2015)
Coronatine [COR] is a novel type of plant growth regulator with similarities in structure and property to jasmonate. The objective of this study was to examine the relationship between increased root vitality induced by ...
Memory of Germinant Stimuli in Bacterial Spores
(2015-11)
Bacterial spores, despite being metabolically dormant, possess the remarkable capacity to detect nutrients and other molecules in their environment through a biochemical sensory apparatus that can trigger spore germination, ...
Late gastrointestinal tissue effects after hypofractionated radiation therapy of the pancreas
(2015)
Background: To consolidate literature reports of serious late gastrointestinal toxicities after hypofractionated
radiation treatment of pancreatic cancer and attempt to derive normal tissue complication probability ...
Interdisciplinary Diabetes Care: A New Model for Inpatient Diabetes Education
(2015-11)
A patient-centered interdisciplinary diabetes care model was implemented at Vidant Medical Center in Greenville, N.C., a 909-bed tertiary care teaching hospital, for the purpose of providing all patients with diabetes clear ...
Medical Student Performance on the National Board of Medical Examiners Emergency Medicine Advanced Clinical Examination and the National Emergency Medicine M4 Exams
(2015-11)
In April 2013, the National Board of Medical Examiners (NBME) released an Advanced Clinical Examination (ACE) in emergency medicine (EM). In addition to this new resource, CDEM (Clerkship Directors in EM) provides two ...
Advancing research on racial-ethnic health disparities: Improving measurement equivalence in studies with diverse samples
(2014)
To conduct meaningful, epidemiologic research on racial-ethnic health disparities, racial-ethnic samples must be rendered equivalent on other social status and contextual variables via statistical controls of those extraneous ...
Spatial and temporal translational control of germ cell mRNAs mediated by the eIF4E isoform IFE-1
(2015)
Regulated mRNA translation is vital for germ cells to produce new
proteins in the spatial and temporal patterns that drive gamete
development. Translational control involves the de-repression of
stored mRNAs and their ...
