Published: January 1997

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of atmosphere on the phase transformation in hydroxyapatite (HA) coatings during heat treatment by varying the atmosphere in the furnace pipe. Heat treatment always increased the crystallinity of HA coatings regardless of the kind of atmosphere. Water molecules in atmosphere further promoted HA recrystallization during heat treatment. In a dry atmosphere, tricalcium phosphate (TCP) and tetracalcium phosphate (TTCP) were more stable than HA, so heat treatment could not convert them into HA. However, in a humid atmosphere, heat treatment would transform TCP and TTCP into HA by hydrolytic reactions.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) has high incidence and mortality rates, with severe prognoses during invasion and metastasis stages. Despite advancements in diagnostic and therapeutic technologies, the impact of the tumour microenvironment, particularly extracellular matrix (ECM) stiffness, on CRC progression and metastasis is not fully understood.

Methods: This study included 107 CRC patients.

Assessment of Hsp90β-selective inhibitor safety and on-target effects.

The heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) family of molecular chaperones mediates the folding and activation of ~ 400 client proteins, many of which contribute to oncogenesis. As a result, Hsp90 pan-inhibitors, which inhibit all four Hsp90 isoforms, have been investigated in the clinic for the treatment of cancer. Unfortunately, detrimental side effects were observed and hindered the clinical development of pan-Hsp90 inhibitors.

Formamidopyrimidine DNA glycosylase (Fpg) and flap endonuclease 1 (FEN1) are essential to sustaining genomic stability and integrity, while the abnormal activities of Fpg and FEN1 may lead to various diseases and cancers. The development of simple methods for simultaneously monitoring Fpg and FEN1 is highly desirable. Herein, we construct a multiple cyclic ligation-promoted exponential recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) platform for sensitive and simultaneous monitoring of Fpg and FEN1 in cells and clinical tissues.

In cardiovascular research, electromagnetic fields generated by Riga plates are utilized to study or manipulate blood flow dynamics, which is particularly crucial in developing treatments for conditions such as arterial plaque deposition and understanding blood behavior under varied flow conditions. This research predicts the flow patterns of blood enhanced with gold and maghemite nanoparticles (gold-maghemite/blood) in an electromagnetic microchannel influenced by Riga plates with a temperature gradient that decays exponentially, under sudden changes in pressure gradient. The flow modeling includes key physical influences like radiation heat emission and Darcy drag forces in porous media, with the flow mathematically represented through unsteady partial differential equations solved using the Laplace transform (LT) method.
