Dysregulation of the Pdx1/Ovol2/Zeb2 axis in dedifferentiated β-cells triggers the induction of genes associated with epithelial-mesenchymal transition in diabetes by de Jesus, Daniel S., Mak, Tracy C. S., Wang, Yi-Fang, von Ohlen, Yorrick, Bai, Ying, Kane, Eva, Chabosseau, Pauline, Chahrour, Catherine M., Distaso, Walter, Salem, Victoria, Tomas, Alejandra, Stoffel, Markus, Rutter, Guy A., Latreille, Mathieu

“…We carried out loss- and gain-of-function experiments in MIN6 and EndoC-bH1 cell lines. We analysed previously published mouse andhuman T2D data sets.Results:Bulk RNA-seq revealed thatb-cell dedifferentiation is associated with the induction of genes associated with epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in prediabetic (2-week-old) and diabetic (12-week-old) Tg7 mice. …”

Nanoscale Origins of Thermal Transport Phenomena for Hybrid Layered Perovskites by Dahod, Nabeel S.

“…That so many material properties can be effectively predicted simply from the bulk properties of the component phases is surprising given both the long-range order of the artificial solids and the sub-nanometer length scale of the individual component layers, and underlines the potential for intelligent engineering of the thermal properties of 2D LHPs without deleterious influences on the sterling optoelectronic properties.…”
