KDAC6 alters cell morphology and motility through positive and negative modulation of F‐actin distribution

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
KDAC6 has been associated with cell motility and actin structures, but specific domain contributions are not established. The two catalytic domains have differential effects on motility and F‐actin regulation, affecting cortical F‐actin density, motility, stress fibers, and cell spreading.

A Survey on Tax Evasion Using Randomized Response Technique [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Taxation is a tool used by government to raise revenue. It is also used as an instrument of economic and social policy. This paper adopted Randomized Response Technique to estimate proportions of non-compliance of taxpayers in Akure metropolis as well as

Christofides’ randomized response technique in complex sample surveys

open access: yes
Christofides (2003) has given an improved modification of Warner’s (1965) pioneering randomized response (RR) technique in estimating an unknown proportion of people bearing a sensitive characteristic in a given community.

Accurate and noninvasive prostate cancer detection using plasma‐derived extracellular vesicle RNA

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Plasma extracellular vesicles were captured with WGA‐conjugated magnetic beads and profiled for RNA biomarkers. A three‐RNA panel (NM_024955, NR_047469, and NR_002564) distinguished prostate cancer from healthy controls and benign prostatic hyperplasia, supporting a simple, noninvasive approach to improve prostate cancer detection.

Adenosine triphosphate as a modulator of protein interactions and stability

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
ATP is best known as the cell's energy currency, but it also shapes how proteins fold, interact, aggregate and form biomolecular condensates. This review explains the emerging physical principles behind these effects, including weak binding to charged protein regions, magnesium‐dependent behaviour and concentration‐dependent control of protein ...

Randomized Response and New Thoughts on Politz–Simmons Technique

open access: yes, 2016
An important source of nonsampling errors in sample surveys is Not-at-Home\u27s for which Politz-Simmons technique [PST] is used to estimate parameters using data on first call itself, thus avoiding call-backs, by asking respondents during the ...

Beta1 subunits enable fentanyl‐induced BK channel activation and opioid regulation of cerebral artery diameter

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
During the current opioid crisis, the majority of overdose deaths are attributed to ultra‐potent synthetic opioids, such as fentanyl. While fentanyl exerts its action via opioid receptors, we propose that potassium channels in the brain blood vessels may also sense fentanyl.

The Generalized Logistic Regression Estimator in a Finite Population Sampling without Replacement Setting with Randomized Response

open access: yesRevista Colombiana de Estadística, 2011
The randomized response technique (RR), introduced by Warner (1965) was designed to avoid non-answers to questions about sensitive issues and protect the privacy of the interviewee.

GBS‐MeDIP: A method for the simultaneous identification of genetic and epigenetic variants in tumors

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
GBS‐MeDIP combines DNA sequencing with enrichment of methylated DNA to profile genetic and epigenetic variation in the same reduced genomic fraction. Applied to gastric cancer and parathyroid tumors, it identifies sequence variants, copy number changes, and differentially methylated regions together, helping distinguish true epigenetic changes from ...

More Is Not Always Better: An Experimental Individual-Level Validation of the Randomized Response Technique and the Crosswise Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Social desirability and the fear of sanctions can deter survey respondents from responding truthfully to sensitive questions. Self-reports on norm breaking behavior such as shoplifting, non-voting, or tax evasion may therefore be subject to considerable ...
