Healthcare providers’ experiences screening for intimate partner violence among migrant and seasonal farmworking women: A phenomenological study
(2015-10-06)
Background Migrant and seasonal farmworking (MSFW) women
patients experience substantially more intimate partner violence (IPV)
than the general population, but few health-care providers screen
patients for IPV. While ...
Emerging roles for the pH-sensing G protein-coupled receptors in response to acidotic stress
(2015)
Protons (hydrogen ions) are the simplest form of ions universally produced by cellular metabolism including aerobic respiration and glycolysis. Export of protons out of cells by a number of acid transporters is essential ...
Insulin/IGF1-PI3K-dependent nucleolar localization of a glycolytic enzyme – phosphoglycerate mutase 2, is necessary for proper structure of nucleolus and RNA synthesis
(2015)
Phosphoglycerate mutase (PGAM), a conserved, glycolytic enzyme has been
found in nucleoli of cancer cells. Here, we present evidence that accumulation of
PGAM in the nucleolus is a universal phenomenon concerning not ...
Increased Long-Term Mortality among Black CABG Patients Receiving Preoperative Inotropic Agents
(2015-07)
The aim of this study was to examine racial differences in long-term mortality after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), stratified by preoperative use of inotropic agents. Black and white patients who required ...
Enhanced Mitochondrial Superoxide Scavenging Does Not Improve Muscle Insulin Action in the High Fat-Fed Mouse
(2015-05)
Improving mitochondrial oxidant scavenging may be a viable strategy for the treatment of insulin resistance and diabetes. Mice overexpressing the mitochondrial matrix isoform of superoxide dismutase (sod2tg mice) and/or ...
Assessment of Snow Status Changes Using L-HH Temporal-Coherence Components at Mt. Dagu, China
(2015)
Multitemporal Phased Array type L-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (PALSAR)
horizontally transmitted and horizontally received (HH) coherence data was decomposed
into temporal-coherence, spatial-coherence, and thermal noise ...
Evaluation of Social Media Use by Emergency Medicine Residents and Faculty
(2015-09)
Introduction
Clinicians and residency programs are increasing their use of social media (SM) websites for educational and promotional uses, yet little is known about the use of these sites by residents and faculty. The ...
Molecular Connections between Cancer Cell Metabolism and the Tumor Microenvironment
(2015)
Cancer cells preferentially utilize glycolysis, instead of oxidative phosphorylation,
for metabolism even in the presence of oxygen. This phenomenon of aerobic glycolysis,
referred to as the “Warburg effect”, commonly ...
Inhibition of Autoimmune Diabetes in NOD Mice by miRNA Therapy.
(2015)
Autoimmune destruction of the pancreatic islets in Type 1 diabetes is mediated by both increased proinflammatory (Teff) and decreased regulatory (Treg) T lymphocytes resulting in a significant decrease in the Treg:Teff ...
Murine Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma Reduces Ikaros Expression and Disrupts T Cell Homeostasis
(2015-01-28)
Background
Maintenance of T cell immune homeostasis is critical for adequate anti-tumor immunity. The transcription factor Ikaros is essential for lymphocyte development including T cells. Alterations in Ikaros expression ...
