LncRNA FOXD1-AS1 regulates pancreatic cancer stem cell properties and 5-FU resistance by regulating the miR-570-3p/SPP1 axis as a ceRNA.

Cancer stem cells (CSCs) play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of human cancers. Previous studies have highlighted the role of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) in modulating the stemness of CSCs. In our investigation, we identified an upregulation of lncRNA FOXD1-AS1 in CSCs.

[Removal of Pb from Aqueous Solution by Magnesium-Calcium Hydroxyapatite Adsorbent].

A novel magnesium-calcium hydroxyapatite adsorbent was prepared by the Sol-gel method with different proportions of Mg/(Ca+Mg) using Mg as doped ions, and the removal characteristics and process mechanism of Pb on the magnesium-calcium hydroxyapatite in an aqueous solutions were studied. The results show that the surface of the adsorbent is composed mainly of a hydroxyphosphonite compound[Pb(PO)(OH)], The morphological characteristics of the magnesium-calcium hydroxyapatite adsorbent surface was investigated as crystal structure changes from short rods to needle structures according to scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Testing at a temperature of 25℃ and pH of 5 showed that the adsorption of Pb by magnesium-calcium hydroxyapatite reached equilibrium within 720 min.

Influence of temperature fluctuations on growth and recrystallization of ice crystals in frozen peeled shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) pre-soaked with carrageenan oligosaccharide and xylooligosaccharide.

Temperature fluctuation is a common problem in the frozen storage of shrimp products. This study investigated the influence of carrageenan oligosaccharide (CO) and xylooligosaccharide (XO) on the growth and recrystallization of ice crystals in frozen peeled shrimp exposed to temperature fluctuations. Shrimp soaked with water and 3.
