Abstract Background Somatostatin prevents cell proliferation by inducing apoptosis.Downregulation of the XAF1 transcript may occur during the development of prostate cancer.It is interesting to evaluate the potential regulatory effects of somatostatin on XAF1 expression during the development of prostate cancer cells.Methods XAF1 mRNA and protein e
Stomatal guard cells are specialized epidermal cells regulating gas exchange.The ability to open or close in response to external and internal cues makes BAUME LIP BALM COCOA BUTTER stomata a dynamic and fascinating system.Stomatal closure upon infection ensures restriction of pathogen entry into the plant and forms an essential component of innate
We report the first case of an anaphylactic reaction to Bathroom Furniture Reandron 1000 (depot testosterone undecanoate with a castor oil and benzyl benzoate vehicle).While considered to have a favourable safety profile, serious complications such as oil embolism and anaphylaxis can occur.In our patient, skin testing identified benzyl benzoate to
We introduce finite-function-encoding (FFE) states which encode arbitrary $d$-valued logic functions, i.e., multivariate functions over the ring of integers modulo $d$, and investigate some of their structural properties.We also point out some differences between polynomial and non-polynomial function encoding states: The former can be associated t
To assess the relationship of E2 gene disruption with viral gene expression and clinical outcome in human papillomavirus (HPV) positive head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, we evaluated 31 oropharyngeal and 17 non-oropharyngeal HPV16 positive carcinomas using two PCR-based methods to test for disruption of E2, followed by Sanger sequencing.Expres
