Kim Young-Gil - The mastermind behind the success of scientific creationism in Korea by Rohininaikar Renganatha

“…He was strategic in his use of the opportunities such as the socio-political conditions that promoted the development of science, the explosive popularity of Christianity, which gave scientific creationism a huge advantage, and through the manipulation of his image and the narrative about the development of the scientific creationism to reiterate possible strengths and remove the weak scientific links that might reduce the credibility of the movement. …”

Aphid Resistance Segregates Independently of Cardenolide and Glucosinolate Content in an Erysimum cheiranthoides (Wormseed Wallflower) F2 Population by Mirzaei, Mahdieh, Younkin, Gordon C., Powell, Adrian F., Alani, Martin L., Strickler, Susan R., Jander, Georg

“…However, this variation in defensive metabolites could not explain the differences in aphid growth on the two parental lines, suggesting that processes other than the abundance of glucosinolates and cardenolides have a predominant effect on aphid resistance in E. cheiranthoides.…”

Multidimensional identification of tissue biomarkers of gastric cancer by Guo, Tiannan, Fan, Lingling, Ng, Wai Har, Zhu, Yi, Ho, Mengfatt, Wan, Wei Keat, Lim, Kiat Hon, Ong, Whee Sze, Lee, Sze Sing, Huang, Shiang, Kon, Oi Lian, Sze, Siu Kwan

“…Recognizing that interrogating plasma membrane proteins individually overlooks extensive interactions among them, we have systematically investigated the membrane proteomes and transcriptomes of six gastric cancer cell lines. Our data revealed aberrantly high expression of proteins whose functions accurately reflect the clinical phenotype of gastric cancer, and prioritized critical RTKs and CD proteins in gastric cancer. …”
