Full quantum calculations of the line shape for H2O perturbed by Ar at temperatures from 20 to 300 K.

This work theoretically studied the spectral line shape of H2O perturbed by Ar in the temperature range of 20-300 K for the pure rotational lines below 360 cm-1, as well as three lines (31, 2 ← 44, 1, 54, 2 ← 41, 3, and 73, 5 ← 60, 6) in the v2 band. In order to perform precise dynamical calculations at low collision energies, a full-dimensional long-range potential energy surface was constructed for the H2O-Ar system for the first time to correct the long range of our newly developed intermolecular potential energy surface. Subsequently, the six line-shape parameters (pressure-broadening and -shifting parameters, their speed dependencies, and the complex Dicke parameters) were determined from the generalized spectroscopic cross section by the full quantum time-independent close-coupling approach on this new potential energy surface.

ABLRI: A program for calculating the long-range interaction energy between two monomers in their non-degenerate states.

An accurate description of the long-range (LR) interaction is essential for understanding the collision between cold or ultracold molecules. However, to our best knowledge, there lacks a general approach to construct the intermolecular potential energy surface (IPES) between two arbitrary molecules and/or atoms in the LR region. In this work, we derived analytical expressions of the LR interaction energy, using the multipole expansion of the electrostatic interaction Hamiltonian and the non-degenerate perturbation theory.

A New Full-Dimensional Intermolecular Potential Energy Surface and Rovibrational Energies of the HO-H Complex.

HO-H is a prototypical five-atom van der Waals system, and the interaction between HO and H plays an important role in many physical and chemical environments. However, previous full-dimensional intermolecular potential energy surfaces (IPESs) cannot accurately describe the HO-H interaction in the repulsive or van der Waals minimum region. In this work, we constructed a full-dimensional IPES for the title system with a small root-mean-square error of 0.

Knockdown of SETD2 promotes erastin-induced ferroptosis in ccRCC.

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common subtype of kidney cancer and is associated with poor prognosis. The histone H3 lysine 36 methyltransferase SET-domain-containing 2 (SETD2) has been reported to be expressed at low levels and frequently mutated in ccRCC. Ferroptosis, a form of death distinct from apoptosis and necrosis, has been reported in recent years in renal cancer.

FBXL6 depletion restrains clear cell renal cell carcinoma progression.

Background: F-box proteins play important roles in cell cycle and tumorigenesis. However, its prognostic value and molecular function in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) remain unclear. In this study, we established a survival model to evaluate the prognosis of patients with ccRCC using the F-box gene signature and investigated the function of FBXL6 in ccRCC.

A pyroptosis-associated signature plays a role in prognosis prediction in clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

Background: Approximately 90% of renal malignancies are RCCs (renal cell carcinomas), and the primary subtype in histology is ccRCC (clear cell RCC). In recent years, pyroptosis has been considered a kind of inflammation-related programmed cell death that participates in the invasion, metastasis, and proliferation of tumour cells, thereby influencing tumour prognosis. Nonetheless, the expression level of pyroptosis-associated genes in RCCs and their relationship with prognosis remain obscure.

Research on the Simulation Model of Continuous Fiber-Reinforced Composites Printing Track.

The rapid development of additive manufacturing technology (AM) is revolutionizing the traditional continuous fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) manufacturing process. The combination of FDM technology and CFRP technology gave birth to continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites (CFRTPC) 3D printing technology. Parts with complex structure and excellent performance can be fabricated by this technology.

Results showed similarly low COD concentration of CCF-SBR (20.4 ± 3.

RHBDD1 promotes proliferation, migration, invasion and EMT in renal cell carcinoma via the EGFR/AKT signaling pathway.

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a common malignant tumor of the urinary system with a poor prognosis and high mortality rate. The increasing incidence of RCC poses a serious threat to human health. It is well‑documented that rhomboid domain‑containing protein 1 (RHBDD1) plays a vital role in cancer progression.

Nucleobindin-2 enhances the epithelial-mesenchymal transition in renal cell carcinoma.

Nucleobindin 2 (NUCB-2) is a multifunctional protein that contains several functional domains and is associated with a wide variety of biological processes, such as food intake and energy homeostasis. NUCB-2 has been demonstrated to be associated with worse malignant outcomes and cell migration in breast and prostate cancer. However, to the best of our knowledge, its clinical and biological significance in renal cell carcinoma remains unknown.

BMP8A promotes survival and drug resistance via Nrf2/TRIM24 signaling pathway in clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

There is increasing evidence that bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP) are involved in the proliferation and drug tolerance of kidney cancer. However, the molecular mechanism of BMP8A in renal cell proliferation and drug tolerance is not clear. Here we showed that BMP8A was highly expressed in renal cell carcinoma, which suggests a poor prognosis of ccRCC.

BACKGROUND MicroRNA-381 (miR-381) is proven to be involved in many human tumors. Bioinformatics prediction suggests that miR-381 is decreased in renal cell carcinoma. However, its biological functions in clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) remain largely unknown.

Novel long noncoding RNA OTUD6B-AS1 indicates poor prognosis and inhibits clear cell renal cell carcinoma proliferation via the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

Background: The long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) OTUD6B antisense RNA 1 (OTUD6B-AS1) is oriented in an antisense direction to the protein-coding gene OTUD6B on the opposite DNA strand. TCGA database data show that the expression of the lncRNA OTUD6B-AS1 is downregulated and that OTUD6B-AS1 acts as an antioncogene in a variety of tumors. However, the expression and biological functions of the lncRNA OTUD6B-AS1 are still unknown in tumors, including clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC).
