Horizontal transfer of miR-383 sensitise cells to cisplatin by targeting VEGFA-Akt signalling loop.

Background: Cellular resistance to cisplatin has been one of the major obstacles in the success of combination therapy for many types of cancers. Emerging evidences suggest that exosomes released by drug resistant tumour cells play significant role in conferring resistance to drug sensitive cells by means of horizontal transfer of genetic materials such as miRNAs. Though exosomal miRNAs have been reported to confer drug resistance, the exact underlying mechanisms are still unclear.

Effect of Dy and Tb Rare-Earth Cation Co-Substitution on the Structure, Magnetic, and Magnetostrictive Properties of Ni-Co-Ferrites.

The design and development of electromagnetic and magnetoelectric materials with enhanced properties and performance are desirable for numerous technologies, which are based on integrated electromagnetic materials and components. Nevertheless, engineering the crystalline materials with multi-complex chemistry and multiple cations is challenging. In this context, herein, we report on the effect of rare-earth (RE) cations, namely, Dy and Tb, co-substituted into the Co-Ni-mixed ferrite materials for applications in stress/torque sensors.

Evanescent wave in multiple slit diffraction and n-array antennas in metamaterial using Cesàro convergence.

In this paper, we study Multiple slit diffraction and n- array linear antennae in negative refractive index material. We show that the evanescent wave plays a vital role in the near-field term. The evanescent wave grows significantly, unlike in conventional materials, and satisfies a novel kind of convergence known as Cesàro convergence.
