Study of endothelial cell apoptosis using fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) biosensor cell line with hemodynamic microfluidic chip system by Yu, J. Q., Liu, X. F., Chin, Lip Ket, Liu, Ai Qun, Luo, Kathy Qian

“…A 12% apoptotic rate (nearly a 4-fold increase compared to the static condition) was observed when the endothelial cells were exposed to a high glucose concentration of 20 mM under 2 h exhaustive pulsatile shear stress of 30 dyne cm−2 and followed with another 10 h normal pulsatile shear stress of 15 dyne cm−2. …”

Development a novel paradigm for characterization of emerging contaminants in mixed-use anthropogenic impacted watersheds by Lee, Theodora Hui Yian

“…With more compounds synthesized overtime, it is nearly impossible to monitor all compounds. Thus, the understanding of spatial and temporal variations of contaminant source and sink becomes a priority in contaminant research to aid intervention. …”

Tumor cell-intrinsic signals promoting tolerance and adaptation to oncogenic kinase inhibition by Flower, Cameron Timothy

“…However, many patients still fail to show a clinically meaningful response to kinase inhibitors prescribed on the basis of tumor genotype, and nearly all responsive patients eventually develop resistance, limiting the curative potential of these agents. …”

Tumor-targeted nano-assemblies for energy-blocking cocktail therapy in cancer by Chen, Manling, Liu, Yidu, Li, Yang, Liu, Xue

“…In human lung tumor cells, the half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 2-DG@MA-dots was significantly lower than that of either metformin or 2-DG alone, showing a nearly 100-fold and 30-fold reduction in IC50 values to 11.78 µg mL-1, from 1159 µg mL-1 and 351.20 µg mL-1, respectively. …”

Investigation of Synthetic Proteins Produced via Automated Fast-Flow Peptide Synthesis by Cowfer, Amanda Elizabeth

“…Since the introduction of solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS), the peptide community has endeavored to combine the convenience of flow chemistry with the iterative steps associated with peptide elongation in SPPS. Nearly one decade ago, members of the Pentelute lab envisioned and developed a flow-based peptide synthesizer, the Automated Fast-Flow Peptide Synthesizer, or AFPS for short. …”

A cross-layer payload-dropping scheme for improving CSMA/CA throughput in interference-limited co-channel cells by Jayabal, Raymond J.

“…For transceivers which do not support CST, PD-CSMA/CA adequately mitigates the exposed node problem, thereby allowing nodes to enjoy nearly the maximum throughput as provided by CSMA/CA in the single cell scenario. …”

Maternal Death Surveillance and Response in Sudan: an evidence-based, context-specific optimisation to improve maternal care by Altijani Osman Abbakar, N

“…Analysis of the latest SHHS showed that village and community midwives [trained birth attendants] attended nearly half of all births [55.5%], followed by doctors, health visitors, and nurse-midwives [skilled birth attendants] [22.8%], and the remainder [21.7%] were not attended by a health provider. …”

Genetic analysis of normal human phenotypes within the people of the British Isles by Meena, D

“…For normal hair pigmentation, nearly all of the well documented pigmentation genes were replicated, including <em>MC1R, SLC45A2, TYR, IRF4, HERC2, KITLG</em> and <em>SLC24A4</em> and results generally agreed with studies performed in the past. …”

Fabrication and characterization of graphene and carbon nanotube reinforced bioceramic nanocomposites by Hu, Huanlong
