Tensile strain increases expression of CCN2 and COL2A1 by activating TGF-beta-Smad2/3 pathway in chondrocytic cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Physiologic mechanical stress stimulates expression of chondrogenic genes, such as multifunctional growth factor CYR61/CTGF/NOV (CCN) 2 and alpha 1(II) collagen (COL2A1), and maintains cartilage home-ostasis.

Automatic localization of closely spaced cochlear implant electrode arrays in clinical CTs

open access: yesMedical Physics (Lancaster), 2018
PURPOSE Cochlear implants (CIs) are neural prosthetic devices that provide a sense of sound to people who experience profound hearing loss. Recent research has indicated that there is a significant correlation between hearing outcomes and the ...

Reduced vascular leakage correlates with breast carcinoma T regulatory cell infiltration but not with metastatic propensity

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
A mouse model for vascular normalization and a human breast cancer cohort were studied to understand the relationship between vascular leakage and tumor immune suppression. For this, endothelial and immune cell RNAseq, staining for vascular function, and immune cell profiling were employed.

Why do we know so little about return to work after carpal tunnel release?

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Work, Environment & Health, 2018
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a common nerve entrapment with a prevalence ranging between 2.7–4.9%, depending on the definition, in a representative adult population (1).

Electronic structure and transport properties of Cu-deficient kuramite Cu3-xSnS4

open access: yes, 2015
Electrical and thermal transport properties of Cu-deficient kuramite Cu3-xSnS4 (CTS) was examined as a possible earth-abundant thermoelectric material. Crystallographic structure of CTS was characterized by partial disorder between Cu and Sn. In contrast

Functional Measures Developed for Clinical Populations Identified Impairment Among Active Workers with Upper Extremity Disorders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
PURPOSE: Few studies have explored measures of function across a range of health outcomes in a general working population. Using four upper extremity (UE) case definitions from the scientific literature, we described the performance of functional ...

Class IIa HDACs forced degradation allows resensitization of oxaliplatin‐resistant FBXW7‐mutated colorectal cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
HDAC4 is degraded by the E3 ligase FBXW7. In colorectal cancer, FBXW7 mutations prevent HDAC4 degradation, leading to oxaliplatin resistance. Forced degradation of HDAC4 using a PROTAC compound restores drug sensitivity by resetting the super‐enhancer landscape, reprogramming the epigenetic state of FBXW7‐mutated cells to resemble oxaliplatin ...

Methylation biomarkers can distinguish pleural mesothelioma from healthy pleura and other pleural pathologies

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We developed and validated a DNA methylation–based biomarker panel to distinguish pleural mesothelioma from other pleural conditions. Using the IMPRESS technology, we translated this panel into a clinically applicable assay. The resulting two classifier models demonstrated excellent performance, achieving high AUC values and strong diagnostic accuracy.

Socioscientific conflictive in science education: propositions to biolow and human dignity

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ensino de Ciência e Tecnologia, 2019
The scientific enterprise has not impartial, objective, free from controversies and/or contradictory elements. Rather, it is permeated by values and interests.
