KILLING THE CURE? Is targeting LIF to treat pancreatic cancer a dangerous case of mistaken identity?
Leukaemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF) is a stem cell growth factor critical to health. LIF belongs to the IL-6 family of cytokines but LIF-signalling is unique and qualified by its cell surface receptor, LIF-R.

A miscibility gap in LiF–BeF2 and LiF–BeF2–ThF4 [PDF]
LiF–BeF2 and LiF–BeF2–ThF4 are key systems for Molten Salt Reactor fuel. The liquid phase of these systems has been assessed using Redlich–Kister polynomials. The result shows a miscibility gap on the BeF2-rich side. This has never been proven experimentally. Nevertheless, evidence for a two liquids region is given by the fact that such a region exists
