Self-Powered Carbon Ink/Filter Paper Flexible Humidity Sensor Based on Moisture-Induced Voltage Generation.

Cellulose paper-based materials are highly flexible, hydrophilic, low-cost, and environmentally friendly and are good substrates for use as humidity sensors. Therefore, developing a paper-based humidity sensor with facile fabrication, low cost, and high sensitivity is important for expanding its practical applications. Herein, we propose a CI/FP self-powered humidity sensor based on everyday items such as writing and drawing carbon ink (CI), cellulose filter paper (FP), and polyester conductive adhesive tape, which is fabricated with the help of facile dip-coating and pasting methods.

Downregulation of USP34 Inhibits the Growth and Migration of Pancreatic Cancer Cells via Inhibiting the PRR11.

Background: Pancreatic cancer (PC) is a highly lethal malignancy worldwide. Our previous study indicated that overexpression of USP34 could promote tumor growth in PC cells. Therefore, this study aimed to further investigate the role of USP34 during the tumorigenesis of PC.

USP34 Regulated Human Pancreatic Cancer Cell Survival via AKT and PKC Pathways.

Pancreatic cancer is known to be a fatal disease, which is difficult to be diagnosed in its early stages. Ubiquitin-Specific Protease 34 (USP34) are closely related to human cancers in the development and progression. However, there are rarely studies about the role of USP34 in pancreatic cancer.

Totally laparoscopic gallbladder-preserving surgery: A minimally invasive and favorable approach for cholelithiasis.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effectiveness of laparoscopic gallbladder-preserving surgery (L-GPS) for cholelithiasis and the feasibility and value of totally laparoscopic GPS (TL-GPS). A total of 517 patients underwent L-GPS, including 365 cases of laparoscopy-assisted GPS (LA-GPS), 143 cases of TL-GPS (preservation rate, 98.3%) and nine conversions to laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Disturbance of autophagy-lysosome signaling molecule expression in human gastric adenocarcinoma.

Autophagy is classified as type II programmed cell death and may participate in tumorigenesis. However, changes in autophagy-lysosome signaling and the relationship between the apoptotic cascade and gastric cancer cells have not been fully elucidated. The present study investigated the induction of autophagy in poorly differentiated human gastric adenocarcinoma.
