Blocking the voltage‐gated sodium channel hNav1.5 as a novel pH‐dependent mechanism of action for tamoxifen

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Patch‐clamp recordings revealed that tamoxifen inhibits voltage‐gated sodium channels, especially under acidic conditions, both common in metastatic cancer cells. These effects may explain certain antitumor properties of tamoxifen, highlighting a novel mechanism of action beyond its known endocrine effects.

The Profitability in the FTSE 100 Index: A New Markov Chain Approach

Asia-Pacific Financial Markets, 2019
In this paper, we propose a new method to predict stock market trends based on the multivariate Markov chain (MMC) methodology. Our approach consists of forecasting the one-period ahead FTSE 100 Index behavior, using the MTD-Probit model. The MTD-Probit model is a new approach for estimating MMC, based on multiple categorical data sequences that can be
