The sexual politics of asylum: lived experiences of sexual minority asylum seekers and refugees in the UK by Giametta, Calogero

“…Further, by examining UK law I ask how non-heteronormative lives are construed in the asylum determination process, from the initial stage of a claim to the end of it, and how sexuality travels, namely how it is translated, in such sites. Second, I elaborate on the structural discourses explored throughout the thesis by putting them into direct dialogue with the findings arising from the ethnography. …”

Defect in serine 46 phosphorylation of p53 contributes to acquisition of p53 resistance in oral squamous cell carcinoma cells by Arief Ichwan, Solachuddin Jauhari, Shumpei, Yamada, Piyamas, Sumrejkanchanakij, Elza, Ibrahim-Auerkari, K, Eto, Ikeda, Masa-Aki

“…To investigate whether dysregulation of p53 phosphorylation confers tumor resistance to p53, we analysed the effects of wild-type p53 on oral squamous cell carcinoma(SCC) cell lines carrying various mutations of p53. Introduction of exogenous p53 neither induced apoptosis nor suppressed colony formation in HSC-3 cells lacking any detectable p53 and HSC-4 cells expressing mutant p53R248Q protein. …”

The role of polyamines in growth inhibition induced by Momordica charantia and Gynura procumbens in human lung adenocarcinoma cells, A549 by AhmadSujangi, Nurhikmah, Abdullah, Nor Zamzila, Abdul Ghani, Radiah

“…Hence, this research aimed to determine the polyamine content of selected local plants, Momordica charantia and Gynura procumbens, by using High Performance Liquid Chromatographic (HPLC) analysis as well as conducting cytotoxicity study and growth inhibition study of the plant extracts against the human lung adenocarcinoma epithelial cell lines, A549. The polyamine content of M. charantia was found to be high (more than 200 nmol/g/mol) while G. procumbens contained low level of polyamine (less than 100 nmol/g/ml). …”

Tunable spin-orbit-coupled Bose-Einstein condensates in deep optical lattices by Salerno, Mario, Abdullaev, Fatkhulla Kh., Gammal, A, Tomio, Lauro

“…In particular, we show that extremal curves (ground and highest excited states) of the linear spectrum are continuous piecewise functions (together with their derivatives) of α, which consist of a finite number of decreasing band lobes joined by constant lines. This structure also remains in the presence of inter- and intra-species interactions, the nonlinearity mainly introducing a number of localized states in the band gaps. …”
