A comparative study of circulating tumor cell isolation and enumeration technologies in lung cancer
Lung cancer cells were spiked into donor blood to evaluate the recovery rates of the following circulating tumor cell (CTC) enrichment technologies: CellMag™, EasySep™, RosetteSep™, Parsortix® PR1, and Parsortix® Prototype systems. Each method's advantages and disadvantages are described.

Hydroxide salts in the clouds of Venus: their effect on the sulfur cycle and cloud droplet pH [PDF]
The depletion of SO$_2$ and H$_2$O in and above the clouds of Venus (45 -- 65 km) cannot be explained by known gas-phase chemistry and the observed composition of the atmosphere. We apply a full-atmosphere model of Venus to investigate three potential explanations for the SO$_2$ and H$_2$O depletion: (1) varying the below-cloud water vapor (H$_2$O), (2)

MET variants in the N‐lobe of the kinase domain, found in hereditary papillary renal cell carcinoma, require ligand stimulation to promote cell transformation, in contrast to other RTK variants. This suggests that HGF expression in the microenvironment is important for tumor growth in such patients. Their sensitivity to MET inhibitors opens the way for

Lithium adsorption properties of porous LiAl-layered double hydroxides synthesized using surfactants
Porous LiAl-layered double hydroxides (LiAl-LDHs) of [Li2Al4(OH)12](CO3)·4H2O were hydrothermally synthesized in one-pot by mixing LiCl, AlCl3, urea, and one surfactant each (sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), octadecyl amine (OA), and sodium lauryl sulfonate

A global model study of natural bromine sources and the effects on tropospheric chemistry using MOZART4 [PDF]
Halogens in the atmosphere chemically destroy ozone. In the troposphere, bromine has higher ozone destruction efficiency than chlorine and is the halogen species with the widest geographical spread of natural sources. We investigate the relative strength

Activity of water in aqueous systems; A frequently neglected property [PDF]
In this critical review, the significance of the term ‘activity’ is examined in the context of the properties of aqueous solutions. The dependence of the activity of water(ℓ) at ambient pressure and 298.15 K on solute molality is examined for aqueous ...

Adverse prognosis gene expression patterns in metastatic castration‐resistant prostate cancer
We aggregated a cohort of 1012 mCRPC tissue samples from 769 patients and investigated the association of gene expression‐based pathways with clinical outcomes. Loss of AR signaling, high proliferation, and a glycolytic phenotype were independently prognostic for poor outcomes, and an adverse transcriptional feature score incorporating these pathways ...

Chemistry of sea-salt particles and sea-salt fractionation in Antarctic region
Observations of aerosol constituents and acidic gases were carried out at Syowa Station (1997-1998 and 2003-2006; JARE-38~ 39, and JARE-44~ 47) and Dome Fuji Station (1997, JARE-38).
