Purpose: Tumor cell migration and metastasis share many similarities with leukocyte
trafficking, which is critically regulated by chemokines and their receptors. CXCR4 is the most …

Th17-mediated neutrophilic airway inflammation has been implicated in decreased response
to glucocorticoids in asthma. We aimed to investigate the effect of glucocorticoids on the …

It is well‐established that germline mutations in the mismatch repair genes MLH1, MSH2,
and MSH6 cause Lynch syndrome. However, mutations in these three genes do not account …

Background House dust mite (HDM) acts on the airway epithelium to induce airway inflammation
in asthma. We previously showed that the ability of HDM to induce allergic sensitization …

Background Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), the major cause of death on lung
transplantation, is characterized by bronchiolar inflammation and tissue remodeling. Matrix …

… A linear gradient (overall time = 60 min) starting from 95 % solvent C in solvent D to 100 %
solvent D at 60 min was employed at a flow rate of 1 ml/min. An injector block with a loop of …

Germline mutations in DNA mismatch repair (DNA-MMR) genes, mainly MLH1, MSH2, and
MSH6, underlie Hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) and are mostly family-…

… ) B = 0.9 λ d cos θ where B is the broadening of the peak (measured as the full-width at half
maximum intensity, FWHM), λ is the X-ray wavelength (1.5406 Å for Cu K α ), d is the particle …

Disordered boron carbide coatings with their high hardness, high lubricity, and low surface
friction have become the coatings of choice to enhance the wear performance of many …

Molybdenum disulfide promoted with alkali metals is one of the most studied catalysts for
the conversion of synthesis gas to alcohols. In this work, MoS 2 was promoted by adding …
