The objective of this study was Toys using a statistical model to optimize the medium formula and liquid culturing conditions, which was employed to evaluate the potency of pine needles extract as nutritional component in basal medium for culturing Helvella lacunose in order to enhancing the production of mycelia and extracellular polysaccharides (
Comparison of drug safety data obtained from the monitoring system, literature, and social media: An empirical proof from a Chinese patent medicine.
OBJECTIVES:To investigate the consistency of adverse events (AEs) and adverse drug reactions (ADRs) reported in the literature, monitoring and social media data.METHODS:Using one Chinese patent medicine-Cordyceps sinensis extracts (CSE) as an example, we obtained safety data from the national monitoring system (July 2002 to February 2016), literatu
Percutaneous closure of complex paravalvular aortic root pseudoaneurysm and aorta-cavitary fistulas
Native aortic valve or its Military Helicopter Kit prosthetic valve endocarditis can extend to the adjacent periannular areas and erode into nearby cardiac chambers, leading to pseudoaneurysm and aorta-cavitary fistulas respectively.The later usually leads to acute cardiac failure and hemodynamic instability requiring an urgent surgical interventio
Pharmacological induction of membrane lipid poly-unsaturation sensitizes melanoma to ROS inducers and overcomes acquired resistance to targeted therapy
Abstract Background One of the key limitations of targeted cancer therapies is the rapid onset of therapy resistance.Taking BRAF-mutant melanoma as paradigm, we previously identified the lipogenic regulator SREBP-1 as a central mediator of resistance to MAPK-targeted therapy.Reasoning that lipogenesis-mediated alterations in membrane lipid poly-uns
Coverage and capacity analysis of relay-based device-to-device communications underlaid cellular networks
Coverage and capacity are the key parameters of 4G and beyond wireless networks.These parameters of Long Term Evolution Advanced (LTE-A) networks can be greatly enhanced by enabling device-to-device (D2D) communication.In this paper, full duplex amplify and forward (FDAF) relay nodes (RNs) have been introduced to assisting cellular and D2D communic
