  • We show how an asymmetric elasto-magnetic system provides a novel integrated pumping solution for lab-on-a-chip and point of care devices. This monolithic pumping solution, inspired by Purcell’s 3-link swimmer, is integrated within a simple microfluidic device, bypassing the requirement of external connections. We experimentally prove that this…Read more

  • Primary ductal adenocarcinoma of the lacrimal gland is a rare and aggressive malignant epithelial lacrimal gland neoplasm, morphologically and phenotypically resembles salivary duct carcinoma, and both strongly resemble infiltrating ductal carcinoma of breast.

    Retrospective Chart review of cases of malignant lacrimal gland tumors from 2013…Read more

  • 05), and were higher than those in the control group (

  • Meanwhile, the mRNA and protein expression of JUNB and VEGF was determined by PCR, ELISA and western blot analyses. Of note, miR‑3133 overexpression downregulated, while miR‑3133 knockdown elevated the expression of JUNB and VEGF significantly. Furthermore, it was demonstrated that JUNB upregulated the expression and secretion of VEGF to pro…Read more

  • Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are transmembrane receptors of great clinical interest due to their role in disease. Historically, therapeutics targeting RTKs have been identified using in vitro kinase assays. Due to frequent development of drug resistance, however, there is a need to identify more diverse compounds that inhibit mutated but not…Read more

  • The oral L. Sulbactam pivoxil rhamnosus DSM 32992 and DSM 32991 strains showed the lowest pH-values. Conclusion Screening of probiotic lactobacilli showed significant strain-dependent variations in their antifungal capacity in a pH-dependent mode. Two strains of oral origin were most effective. A further characterization seems justified to…Read more

    Production of bioactive peptides (BAPs) by Lactobacillus species is a cost-effective approach compared to the use of purified enzymes. In this study, proteolytic Lactobacillus helveticus strains were used for milk fermentation to produce BAPs capable of inhibiting angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE). Fermented milks were produced in bioreactors…Read more

    It is challenging to prepare ultralow-density microcellular foams based on high-performance polymers due to their low gas solubility and rigid polymer matrix. In this study, by applying microcellular foaming technology using CO2/acetone as the blowing agent, ultralow-density poly(ether imide) (PEI) bead foams with an expansion ratio of 30-56 times…Read more

    This study was conducted to investigate the clinical syndromes of asthma in children based on the detection of key indicators. Transmembrane Transporters inhibitor A total of 50 children with asthma were selected based on the asthma diagnostic methods categorised according to cough, wheezing, sputum and wheezing sound. The levels of D-dimer (DD)…Read more

    Most of the participants (n=277, 82.1%) felt that it was necessary to have testing available for frontline workers.

    There is lack of PPE and adequate facilities in hospitals as COVID-19 continue to spread in Pakistan. Local medical governing bodies and societies should come forward with guidelines to ascertain wellbeing of the healthcare…Read more

    The dose dependence of the onion root length was linear. The present study showed for the first time that short-term low-dose gamma-irradiation could induce long-term negative effects on plant growth.

    The results of the study suggested that short-term gamma-irradiation of onion seedlings (absorbed doses of 0.1-10 Gy) caused inhibition of p…Read more
