The role of SPRTN protease in colorectal cancer chemotherapy by Peron, C

“…The first-line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) is frequently based on combination chemotherapeutic regimens, where 5-fluorouracil is either associated with irinotecan (FOLFIRI) or oxaliplatin (FOLFOX). Both these regiments present similar level of efficacy, and both irinotecan and oxaliplatin have been reported as drugs with the potential to induce relevant amounts of DNA-protein crosslinks (DPCs), a heterogeneous form of DNA lesion in which proteins end up being covalently bound to the DNA. …”

Modelling the rheology of living cell cytoplasm: poroviscoelasticity and fluid-to-solid transition by Thekkethil, Namshad, Köry, Jakub, Guo, Ming, Stewart, Peter S., Hill, Nicholas A., Luo, Xiaoyu

“…Baseline simulations (neglecting the viscosity of the cytosol) indicate that the system exhibits seven different regimes across the parameter space spanned by the viscoelastic relaxation timescale of the cytoskeleton and the poroelastic diffusion timescale; these regimes agree qualitatively with experimental measurements. …”

The four worlds of ‘welfare reality’ – social risks and outcomes in Europe by Ferragina, E, Seeleib-Kaiser, M, Spreckelsen, T

“…After three decades of welfare state crisis, change and transformation can we still speak of welfare state regimes when looking at their outcomes? The analysis of outcomes provides a picture of ‘the real worlds of welfare’ and is of considerable importance to understanding political legitimacy across countries. …”

The changing nature of Chinese business in Africa : the case of Cape Verde by Horta, Loro

“…Chinese state companies are usually singled out for criticism in the West due to their links with despotic African regimes all for the sake of profit. The nature of Chinese business in Africa is however becoming more complex.…”

A comparative analysis of missing data imputation techniques on sedimentation data by Loh, Wing Son, Ling, Lloyd, Chin, Ren Jie, Lai, Sai Hin, Loo, Kar Kuan, Seah, Choon Sen

“…A comparative analysis on the missing fine sediment data imputation performance was made based on four different techniques, namely the k-Nearest Neighbourhood (k-NN), Support Vector Regression (SVR), Multiple Regression (MR), and Artificial Neural Network (ANN), under the single imputation (SI) and multiple imputation (MI) regimes. Across different missing data proportions (10%-50%), the ANN demonstrated optimal results with consistent performance metrics recorded over both SI and MI regimes. …”

Structure of mushy layers grown from perfectly and imperfectly conducting boundaries. Part 1. Diffusive solidification by Hitchen, JR, Wells, AJ

“…For an isothermal boundary we characterise different growth regimes depending on a concentration ratio, which can also be viewed as characterising the ratio of composition-dependent freezing point depression versus the temperature difference across the mushy layer. …”

Predictability of exchange rates with taylor rule fundamentals : evidence from inflation-targeting emerging countries by Alba, Joseph Dennis, Park, Donghyun, Xie, Taojun

“…We investigate the out-of-sample predictability of U.S. dollar exchange rates with Taylor rule fundamentals in thirteen emerging countries with inflation-targeting monetary policy regimes. We find some evidence of out-of-sample exchange rate predictability for Brazil, Czech Republic, Hungary, Philippines, Thailand, and South Africa. …”
