The formation of cancer stem cells in EMT6/Ro tumor: Hybrid modeling within its micro-environment

open access: yesInformatics in Medicine Unlocked, 2020
We investigate the formation of cancer stem cells and their role in maintaining avascular solid tumors. For this purpose, we provide a mathematical framework to study the major biological interpretations on the stemness of cancerous cells (stochastic ...

Changes in Body Composition in Children and Young People Undergoing Treatment for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ongoing evidence indicates increased risk of sarcopenic obesity among children and young people (CYP) with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), often beginning early in treatment, persisting into survivorship. This review evaluates current literature on body composition in CYP with ALL during and after treatment.

Inhibitory effects of knocking down homeobox C8 on seven factors-induced somatic cell reprogramming

open access: yes浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2022
To explore the mechanism of seven factors (Jdp2-Jhdm1b-Mkk6-Glis1-Nanog-Esrrb-Sall4)-induced somatic cell reprogramming, we analyzed the related role of homeobox C8 (Hoxc8) in the process of pluripotency network reconstruction through forward and reverse

A Genetic Study on Lumbosacral Transitional Vertebra.

open access: yesOrthopedics & Traumatology, 1991
Various studies have placed the prevalence of lumbosacral transitional vertebra to be anywhere from 0.6 to 25% of the general population.We found twenty cases of the transitional vertebra. They had a high frequency (64.2%) of the anomaly. There may be a genetic factor involved in the lumbosacral transitional vertebra.
