Tumorigenesis is associated with metabolic abnormalities and genomic instability. Microsatellite mutations, including microsatellite instability (MSI) and loss of heterozygosity (LOH), are associated with the functional impairment of some tumor-related genes. To investigate the role of MSI and LOH in sporadic breast tumors in canines, 22 tumors DNA samples and their adjacent normal tissues were evaluated using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and silver staining for 58 microsatellites.

Herein, a facial strategy for implementing a ternary memory device with high working temperature/humidity was executed. In detail, an asymmetric aggregation-induced-emission active molecule (azobenzol-decorated tetraphenylethylene, i.

Biochars were produced from the pyrolysis of rice straw and litter at three temperatures(350, 500, and 650℃). The results showed that the pH values of the two biochars with pyrolysis temperature increases were improved from 8.
