Romidepsin exhibits anti-esophageal squamous cell carcinoma activity through the DDIT4-mTORC1 pathway.

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is one of the most common human malignancies worldwide and is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Current treatment options are limited, highlighting the need for development of novel effective agents. Here, a high-throughput drug screening (HTS) was performed using ESCC cell lines in both two- and three-dimensional culture systems to screen compounds that have anti-ESCC activity.

Impact of Smoluchowski Temperature and Maxwell Velocity Slip Conditions on Axisymmetric Rotated Flow of Hybrid Nanofluid past a Porous Moving Rotating Disk.

Colloidal suspensions of regular fluids and nanoparticles are known as nanofluids. They have a variety of applications in the medical field, including cell separation, drug targeting, destruction of tumor tissue, and so on. On the other hand, the dispersion of multiple nanoparticles into a regular fluid is referred to as a hybrid nanofluid.

Entropy optimized dissipative flow of hybrid nanofluid in the presence of non-linear thermal radiation and Joule heating.

Present article reads three dimensional flow analysis of incompressible viscous hybrid nanofluid in a rotating frame. Ethylene glycol is used as a base liquid while nanoparticles are of copper and silver. Fluid is bounded between two parallel surfaces in which the lower surface stretches linearly.

Improvement of CH₃NH₃PbI₃ Formation for Efficient and Better Reproducible Mesoscopic Perovskite Solar Cells.

High-performance perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are obtained through optimization of the formation of CH3NH3PbI3 nanocrystals on mesoporous TiO2 film, using a two-step sequential deposition process by first spin-coating a PbI2 film and then submerging it into CH3NH3I solution for perovskite conversion (PbI2 + CH3NH3I → CH3NH3PbI3). It is found that the PbI2 morphology from different film formation process (thermal drying, solvent extraction, and as-deposited) has a profound effect on the CH3NH3PbI3 active layer formation and its nanocrystalline composition. The residual PbI2 in the active layer contributes to substantial photocurrent losses, thus resulting in low and inconsistent PSC performances.
