Foamed zinc was prepared by infiltration casting process.The mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of the samples were studied, and the feasibility of the foamed zinc as a bone implant material was discussed.All the compression stress-strain curves of open-cell zinc foams with various cell size (1-4 mm) and porosity (55%-67%) show three st
Let-7e sensitizes epithelial ovarian cancer to cisplatin through repressing DNA double strand break repair
Abstract Background Resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy remains a great challenge for ovarian cancer treatment.The human let-7 family contains 13 members located on nine different chromosomes, and most members have been implicated in the modulation of drug sensitivity in cancers.Our previous study showed that deregulation of let-7e in epithel
Hypersensitivity to passive voice hearing in hallucination proneness
Voices are a complex and rich acoustic signal processed in an extensive cortical brain network.Specialized regions within this network support voice perception and production Plasma Torches and may be differentially affected in pathological voice processing.For example, the experience of hallucinating voices has been linked to hyperactivity in temp
The expression of SERPINE1 in colon cancer and its regulatory network and prognostic value
Abstract Background Serpin Peptidase Inhibitor 1 (SERPINE1) promotes cancer progression by making it easier for cancer cells to spread to surrounding normal tissue.We expect to understand the prognostic value and regulatory network of SERPINE1 in colon cancer using bioinformatics methods.Methods The expression of target gene SERPINE1 in varying can
