Lexical organization in deaf children who use British Sign Language: Evidence from a semantic fluency task [PDF]
We adapted the semantic fluency task into British Sign Language (BSL). In Study 1, we present data from twenty-two deaf signers aged four to fifteen. We show that the same ‘cognitive signatures’ that characterize this task in spoken languages are also ...

Glioma cells mainly express the endothelin receptor EDNRB, while EDNRA is restricted to a perivascular tumor subpopulation. Endothelin signaling reduces glioma cell proliferation while promoting migration and a proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition associated with poor prognosis. This pathway activates Ca2+, K+, ERK, and STAT3 signalings and is regulated

Fluency Bank: A new resource for fluency research and practice [PDF]
The National Science Foundation (NSF) and the National Institute on Deafness and other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) have recently provided funding to establish FluencyBank (http://fluency.talkbank.org) as a new component of the larger TalkBank system (http://talkbank.org). The purpose of this article is to explain how FluencyBank will work to extend

Loss of the miR‐214/199a cluster is associated with recurrence in ovarian cancer. Engineered small extracellular vesicles (m214‐sEVs) elevate miR‐214‐3p/miR‐199a‐5p in tumor cells, suppress β‐catenin, TLR4, and YKT6 signaling, reprogram tumor‐derived sEV cargo, reduce chemoresistance and migration, and enhance carboplatin efficacy and survival in ...
