Interaction of preimplantation factor with the global bovine endometrial transcriptome.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Preimplantation factor (PIF) is an embryo derived peptide which exerts an immune modulatory effect on human endometrium, promoting immune tolerance to the embryo whilst maintaining the immune response to invading pathogens.

Preimplantation factor modulates acute inflammatory responses of equine endometrium

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 351-356, November 2018., 2018
Preimplantation factor modulates acute inflammatory responses of equine endometrium. Abstract Persistent mating‐induced endometritis (PMIE) is a significant cause of mare infertility hence its treatment would advance the management of susceptible mares.

Next‐generation lineage discovery: A case study of tuberous Claytonia L.

American Journal of Botany, Volume 105, Issue 3, Page 536-548, March 2018., 2018
Premise of the Study Species formation is an intuitive endpoint of reproductive isolation, but circumscribing taxa that arise during speciation can be difficult because of gene flow, morphological continuity, hybridization or polyploidization, and low sequence variation among newly diverged lineages.

Mechanism of twist in incremental sheet forming of thermoplastic polymer

Materials & Design, 2020
Single point incremental forming (SPIF) is one of the procedures with the most potential in aerospace development and human implants. However, twist phenomena occur frequently and affect the processing defects, which strongly influence the geometric ...

Anthocyanin Extracts From 11 Superfruits Mitigate Oxidative Stress and Inflammatory Damage in HK‐2 Cells Induced by Cadmium Exposure

Food Frontiers, Volume 6, Issue 3, Page 1558-1574, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Cadmium (Cd) pollution has emerged as an escalating threat to human health, with its induced kidney toxicity being closely linked to oxidative stress and inflammation. In this study, we extracted and analyzed primary anthocyanins from 11 superfruits using UPLC‐Triple‐TOF/MS and evaluated their antioxidant capacity through DPPH, ABTS, FRAP, and

Study on Thickness Thinning Ratio of the Forming Parts in Single Point Incremental Forming Process

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
An excessive thickness‐reducing ratio of the deformation zone in single point incremental forming of the metal sheet process has an important influence on the forming limit. Prediction of the deformation zone thickness is an important approach to control the thinning ratio.

Influences of Process Parameters and Vibration Parameters on the Forming Force in the Ultrasonic‐Assisted Incremental Forming Process

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
In the field of plastic forming, ultrasonic vibration has the advantages of small forming force and high forming quality, and it has been introduced into a single‐point incremental plastic forming technique with high flexibility and high precision.
