NUMB PROTECTS RENAL PROXIMAL TUBULAR CELLS FROM PUROMYCIN AMINONUCLEOSIDE-INDUCED APOPTOSIS THROUGH INHIBITING NOTCH SIGNALING PATHWAY

Numb Protects Renal Proximal Tubular Cells from Puromycin Aminonucleoside-Induced Apoptosis through Inhibiting Notch Signaling Pathway

Numb was originally discovered as an intrinsic cell fate determinant in Drosophila by antagonizing Notch signaling.The present study is to characterize the role of Numb in oxidative stress-induced apoptosis of Teapot renal proximal tubular cells.Exposure of NRK52E cells to puromycin aminonucleoside (PA) resulted in caspase 3-dependent apoptosis.Num

Opinion: Are Organoids the End of Model Evolution for Studying Host Intestinal Epithelium/Microbe Interactions?

In the pursuit to understand intestinal epithelial cell biology in health and disease, researchers have established various model systems, from whole animals (typically rodents) with Vinyl 12" 33 LP experimentally induced disease to transformed human carcinomas.The obvious limitation to the ex vivo or in vitro cell systems was enriching, maintainin

Designing and testing of Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) system for small wooden boat identification and e-certification

Abstract This paper presented the implementation of Bluetooth low energy (BLE) devices implanted on 7 small wooden boats.The BLE implantation is aimed at boat identification and certification.We use four parameters to measure the performance of BLE signal strength, e.g., solar panel usage (with/without solar panel usage), weather effect (sunny/rain
