TP53 R249S mutation in hepatic organoids captures the predisposing cancer risk
The systematic approach in elucidating the gain‐of‐function (GOF) roles of TP53 mutations in early liver carcinogenesis. Unique downstream targets of TP53 L3 mutations were identified from chormatin immunoprecipitation sequencing in HCC cell lines, followed by a series of validation assays to substantiate the exclusive transcriptional regulations ...

Negligible effects of tryptophan on the aflatoxin adsorption of sodium bentonite [PDF]
The main objective of this study was to determine if the competitive adsorption of tryptophan (Trp) and aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) could potentially affect the ability of a sodium bentonite (NaB) to prevent aflatoxicosis in monogastric animals.
