A Tukey type trend test for repeated carcinogenicity bioassays, motivated by multiple glyphosate studies [PDF]
In the last two decades, significant methodological progress to the simultaneous inference of simple and complex randomized designs, particularly proportions as endpoints, occurred. This includes: i) the new Tukey trend test approach, ii) multiple contrast tests for binomial proportions, iii) multiple contrast tests for poly-k estimates, and Add-1 ...

A versatile trend test for the evaluation of tumor incidences in long-term carcinogenicity bioassays [PDF]
For the evaluation of carcinogenicity bioassays a new trend test is proposed which is based on a maximum of arithmetic, ordinal, and logarithmic regression scores as well as the Williams-type contrasts for either crude proportions or more appropriate poly3-estimates for the tumor-by-time relationships. This test provides an almost appropriate power for

A Comparative Study of Disordered and Ordered Protein Folding Dynamics Using Computational Simulation [PDF]
Folding protein dynamics has been an area of high interest for quite some time, especially given the increased focus on the field of Biophysics. Because folding dynamics occur on such short time scales, empirical techniques developed for more "static" protein events, such as X-ray crystallography, nuclear magnetic resonance, and green fluorescent ...

PP2A Deficiency Enhances Carcinogenesis of Lgr5+ Intestinal Stem Cells Both in Organoids and In Vivo
In most cancers, cellular origin and the contribution of intrinsic and extrinsic factors toward transformation remain elusive. Cell specific carcinogenesis models are currently unavailable. To investigate cellular origin in carcinogenesis, we developed a

Mycotoxins are metabolites of molds considered to be a major risk factor affecting human and animal health. It is estimated that 25% of the world’s crop production is contaminated with mycotoxins. Mold contamination occurs extensively in fields and it is particularly severe in tropical countries.
