Investigating the role of lysine demethylase UTX-1 in lifespan regulation of C. elegans by Guillermo, A

“…Overall, the work in this thesis, which also includes analysis of <em>cbp-1</em> (H3K27 acetyl transferase), suggests that lifespan regulation due to H3K27 modification is incredibly complex and that longevity is mediated differentially as a consequence of different doses of modifier, and in specific tissues, likely due to transcriptional changes mediated by the demethylase function of UTX-1.…”

Study on mechanism and influential factors of progressive collapse resistance of base-isolated structure by Bao, Chao, Zhang, Yuhang, Lv, Dahai, Wang, Huxiang, Ma, Xiaotong, Cao, Jixing, Lim, Kar Sing

“…In the case of side isolation bearing failure, due to the lack of sufficient lateral restraint, the capacity was significantly lower than other conditions, which were more likely to cause partly collapse. Therefore, setting more transfer paths to improve the structure’s resistance to progressive collapses was necessary. …”

Methodological, political and legal issues in the assessment of the effects of nanotechnology on human health by Schulte, Paul A, Riediker, Michael, Fatkhutdinova, Liliya, Bergamaschi, Enrico, Canu, Irina Guseva

“…Scientific challenges include the array of physicochemical parameters and ENM production conditions, the lack of universally accepted definitions of ENMs and nanotechnology workers, and the lack of information about modes of action, target organs and likely dose–response functions of ENMs. Standardisation of data collection and harmonisation of research protocols are needed to eliminate misclassification of exposures and health effects. …”
