Effects of nnav1.5 expression modulation on mhc I antigen processing machinery and invasion potential of breast cancer cells by Din, Ahmad Hafiz Murtadha Noor

“…Loss of immune surveillance enables cancer cells to metastasize hence this study is to explore the possible role of nNav1.5 in regulating the expression of immune components, MHC I antigen processing machinery (APM), which is deregulated in breast cancer. Several reports link VGSC and APM in neurons, but the correlation between nNav1.5 and APM in breast cancer is unknown. …”

Phase measurements based indoor visible light positioning systems by Zhang, Sheng

“…As the GPS signals have severe multi-path effects and strong signal attenuations in indoor buildings, visible light with its line of sight (LOS) property and fewer reflections and diffractions gains advantages in the positioning accuracy over other RF-based techniques.There are several positioning algorithms, the simplest one in structure is the received signal strength (RSS) which has good signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) property, but is not feasible in situations with rotations and intensity disturbance. …”

幽禁中之丰姿，落寞中之妖冶：《唐詩名媛集》述評 = Charming in silence and coquettish in desolate : a commentary on Tangshi Mingyuan Ji by 曲景毅 Qu, Jingyi

“…Xinmeng feishi describes a woman of unwavering moral principles. However, the line dimi chuancong is baffling. Cong refers to matters of the heart while dimi refers to ＂private transmission＂; Dimi chuancong (or chuanzong) might thus be describing the infidelity and secret rendezvous between a man and a woman. …”

Mechanical performance and microstructural development of MgO-SiO2-H2O systems by Sonat, Cem

“…The high performance achieved by MgO-SiO2 mixes under ambient conditions has led to scientific interest in the exploration of their potential to be utilized in structural and non-structural construction applications. In line with this interest, the main goal of this study was to analyse the mechanical performance and microstructural development of MgO-SiO2-H2O systems and evaluate the stability of the formed phases under various conditions. …”

Amino-functionalised β-diketiminate ligands (N-nacnacs): Synthesis and coordination chemistry with Main Group elements by Huan, D

“…The proposed mechanism suggests that in most cases, strong σ-donating groups favour the N,C-chelate aza-butadienyl configuration under ambient conditions. This is broadly in line with the experimental findings, with the exception of the R = P(SiMe₃)₂ system which, together with the σ-withdrawing R = Cl system, exists in the N-nacnac-chelate form at room temperature.…”
