Strengthening mechanism of sub-nano NiP and CuP phases particles on the Pb-Sn bronze alloy.

The influence of the sub-nano NiP and CuP phases on the microstructure, mechanical properties, and strengthening mechanism of Cu-20Pb-5Sn-xP (x = 0,0.05,0.1,0.

Alu hypomethylation and MGMT hypermethylation in serum as biomarkers of glioma.

In order to improve prognosis of glioma patients, better tools are required for early diagnosis and treatment. Serum cell-free DNA methylation levels of Alu, MGMT, P16, RASSF1A from 124 glioma patients and 58 healthy controls were detected by the bisulfite sequencing. The median methylation level of Alu was 46.

The beta-lactam antibiotic, ceftriaxone, provides neuroprotective potential via anti-excitotoxicity and anti-inflammation response in a rat model of traumatic brain injury.

Background: The beta-lactam antibiotic, ceftriaxone (CTX), has been reported to induce neuroprotection in animal models of diverse neurologic diseases. Currently, no data have explored the potential for CTX to provide neuroprotection in the animal models of traumatic brain injury (TBI). The aim of this study was to investigate the neuroprotective effect by CTX on TBI and to determine the underlying mechanisms.
