Improving the bandwidth of microstructured multimode W-type POFs in the visible light range

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics
The bandwidth of multimode W-type microstructured plastic optical fibers (mPOFs) is analyzed using the time-dependent power flow equation (TD PFE). The results demonstrate that increasing the wavelength enhances the bandwidth in W-type mPOFs, depending ...

KLK7 overexpression promotes an aggressive phenotype and facilitates peritoneal dissemination in colorectal cancer cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
KLK7, a tissue kallikrein‐related peptidase, is elevated in advanced colorectal cancer and associated with shorter survival. High KLK7 levels in ascites correlate with peritoneal metastasis. In mice, KLK7 overexpression increases metastasis. In vitro, KLK7 enhances cancer cell proliferation, migration, adhesion, and spheroid formation, driving ...
