Anti-tumor activity of a novel compound-CDF is mediated by regulating miR-21, miR-200, and PTEN in pancreatic cancer. by Bin Bao, Shadan Ali, Dejuan Kong, Sanila H Sarkar, Zhiwei Wang, Sanjeev Banerjee, Amro Aboukameel, Subhash Padhye, Philip A Philip, Fazlul H Sarkar

“…<h4>Methodology/principal findings</h4>In the current study we showed, for the first time, that CDF could significantly inhibit the sphere-forming ability (pancreatospheres) of PC cells consistent with increased disintegration of pancreatospheres, which was associated with attenuation of CSC markers (CD44 and EpCAM), especially in gemcitabine-resistant (MIAPaCa-2) PC cells containing high proportion of CSCs consistent with increased miR-21 and decreased miR-200. …”

Chelated Forms of Trace Elements as a Promising Solution for Improving Soybean Symbiotic Capacity and Productivity Under Climate Change by Tetiana Nyzhnyk, Sergii Kots

“…Stimulation of nodulation and nitrogen fixation in soybeans (by 40.1 and 73.0%) and an increase in grain productivity (by 47.5 and 58%) were observed when using Bradyrhizobium inoculant containing Fe or Ge chelates. The inoculation of soybeans with Bradyrhizobium modified using Mo chelate causes similar changes in antioxidant processes as Fe or Ge chelates, but the soybean symbiotic capacity decreases under water stress. …”

All the Faces of Agency in Video Games by Biljana Mitrović

“…Apart from the fact that video games are still a current and wide area of study, the reason for academic interest and the publishing of books in this area is also methodological – video game studies use multidisciplinary interactions between various areas of theory and games while demonstrating how video games fit and influence the existing theoretical and methodological models in the humanities.It is in this context that we have an interesting example: Bettina Bódi’s Videogames and Agency (Routledge, 2023). …”

Enhancing Vehicle Location Prediction Accuracy with Road-Aware Rectification for Multi-Access Edge Computing Applications by Asif Mehmood, Afaq Muhammad, Faisal Mehmood, Wang-Cheol Song

“…Existing estimation techniques to forecast vehicle position aim to meet the real-time data needs but compromise accuracy due to a lack of context awareness. While algorithms such as the Kalman filter improve estimation accuracy by considering certainty-grading and current-state estimate of measurements, they do not include the road context, which is vital for more accurate predictions. …”
