Introduction: A high malignancy rate and poor prognosis are common problems with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). There is increasing evidence that glycolysis plays vital roles in tumorigenesis, tumor invasion, immune evasion, chemoresistance, and metastasis. However, a comprehensive analysis of the diagnostic and prognostic significance of glycolysis in TNBC is lacking.

Lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1), demethylase against mono- and di - methylated histone3 lysine 4, has emerged as a promising target in oncology. More specifically, it has been demonstrated as a key promoter in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and several LSD1 inhibitors have already entered into clinical trials for the treatment of AML. In this paper, a series of new indole derivatives were designed and synthesized based on a lead compound obtained by a high-throughput screening with our in-house compound library.

The supply chain of shellfish is complex, with animals being subjected to several stressors during the depuration, temporary keeping, and waterless-low-temp transportation processing. In this paper, the recycled water system for depuration and temporary keeping was used to realize both depuration and temporary keeping of . The samples were divided into three groups based on three different pre-process involved: samples in group 1 were depurated for 48 hr straight, whereas those in group 2 were first depured for 24 hr and then cooled for 24 hr; samples in group 3 was directly kept in a polyethylene insulation box.

An efficient and practical base-promoted cascade reaction has been developed to access steroidal polysubstituted anilines from simple precursors. The protocol reported herein achieved the formation of a benzene ring as well as three continuous C-C bonds in a single operation. The reaction mechanism was proposed on the basis of the key intermediate obtained.

The effect of nucleation modes on the induced crystallization process for copper contained wastewater treatment was studied. Tests were undertaken to observe the difference of copper removal efficiency and the crystal growth with homogeneous and heterogeneous nucleation. When the influent copper concentration was 50 mg x L(-1), copper removal efficiency could achieve 98.

In order to not affect the image quality of interference fringes on the basis of the structure by increasing the structure angle of Wollaston prism to improve spectrum resolution, the authors optimized the structure of Wollaston prism. Calculating the function of the splitting angle and the structure angle, analysis indicated that taking the isosceles triangle prism with the same nature of the second wedge-shaped prism after the Wollaston prism, which makes the o and e light parallel to the optical axis, and alpha=0 degrees, the imaging interference fringes are no longer affected by changes in the splitting angle. Several optimized Wollaston prisms were made as an array to improve the spectral resolution.

Objective: To explore the predictors of axillary nodal metastass in patients with breast cancer.

Methods: A retrospective study was performed using the clinicopathological data of breast cancer cases diagnosed and treated in our Hospital between Dec 2006 and Nov 2008. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the predictors of axillary node positivity.

In this research, COD release of rotten wood was studied and rotten wood was investigated as the sole carbon source as well as biofilm carrier to remove nitrate from wastewater in up-flow laboratory reactor. The experimental results indicated that rotten wood could release carbon source continuously. COD released of rotten wood inoculated with humus was 2.
