Hypoxia-induced shedding of MICA and HIF1A-mediated immune escape of pancreatic cancer cells from NK cells: role of circ_0000977/miR-153 axis

open access: yesRNA Biology, 2019
One key to malignant progression of pancreatic cancer (PC) is the acquired ability of tumour cells to escape immune-mediated lysis. Hypoxic microenvironment plays a causal role in PC metastasis.

Probing the structure of the cold dark matter halo with ancient mica

open access: yes, 1997
Mica can store (for >1 Gy) etchable tracks caused by atoms recoiling from WIMPs. Ancient mica is a directional detector despite the complex motions it makes with respect to the WIMP "wind".

Structure and Phase Transitions of Alkyl Chains on Mica

open access: yes, 2003
We use molecular dynamics as a tool to understand the structure and phase transitions [Osman et. al. J. Phys. Chem. B 2000, 104, 4433; 2002, 106, 653] in alkylammonium micas.

Major histocompatibility complex class I-related chain A/B (MICA/B) expression in tumor tissue and serum of pancreatic cancer: Role of uric acid accumulation in gemcitabine-induced MICA/B expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background Major histocompatibility complex class I-related chain A and B (MICA/B) are two stress-inducible ligands that bind the immunoreceptor NKG2D and play an important role in mediating the cyotoxicity of NK and T cells.

Restoration of antitumor immunity through anti-MICA antibodies elicited with a chimeric protein

open access: yesJournal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer, 2020
Background Natural killer and cytotoxic CD8+ T cells are major players during antitumor immunity. They express NKG2D, an activating receptor that promotes tumor elimination through recognition of the MHC class I chain-related proteins A and B (MICA and ...

Hypervelocity impacts on thin brittle targets: experimental data and SPH simulations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The meteoroids and debris environment play an important role in the reduction of spacecraft life time. Ejecta or secondary debris, are produced when a debris or a meteoroid impact a spacecraft surface.

Molecular beam growth of graphene on mica

open access: yes, 2012
We demonstrate molecular beam growth of graphene on biotite mica substrates at temperatures below 1000{\deg}C. As indicated by optical and atomic force microscopy, evaporation of carbon from a high purity solid-state source onto biotite surface results ...
