ATP-induced temperature independence of hemoglobin–O2 affinity in heterothermic billfish [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Biology, 2010
SUMMARY The inverse relationship between temperature and hemoglobin–O2 affinity resulting from the exothermic nature of heme oxygenation favors O2 unloading from blood to warm, metabolically active tissues. However, this temperature sensitivity is maladaptive, and commonly countered in regional heterotherms, where it may hamper unloading

Targeting PRMTs Creates Vulnerability of DNA Double‐Stand Break Repair Pathways, and Potentiates Chemotherapy Efficacy in TNBC

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
Our work makes the proof of concept that there is a clinical benefit to target both PRMT1 and PRMT5 to maximize the anti‐tumoral effect of chemotherapy in triple negative breast cancer. ABSTRACT Patients with triple‐negative breast cancer (ER−, PR−, and HER2−) are routinely treated with chemotherapies that induce DNA damage.

Abstract While scholars have increasingly studied the German right's publishing strategies and literary politics, less attention has been paid to the literary texts as such. They are worth examining in detail, I argue here, because they reflect in exaggerated form a problem that troubles political novels more generally: the dwindling role of the novel ...
