SOMA-TO-GERMLINE TRANSMISSION OF RNA IN MICE XENOGRAFTED WITH HUMAN TUMOUR CELLS: POSSIBLE TRANSPORT BY EXOSOMES.

Soma-to-germline transmission of RNA in mice xenografted with human tumour cells: possible transport by exosomes.

Mendelian laws provide the universal founding paradigm for the mechanism of genetic inheritance through which characters are segregated and assorted.In recent years, however, parallel with the rapid growth of epigenetic studies, cases of inheritance deviating from Mendelian patterns have emerged.Growing studies underscore phenotypic variations and

The bacterial fimbrial tip acts as a mechanical force sensor.

There is increasing evidence that the catch bond mechanism, where binding becomes stronger under tensile force, is a common property among non-covalent interactions between biological molecules that are exposed to mechanical force in vivo.Here, by using the multi-protein tip complex of the mannose-binding type 1 fimbriae of Escherichia coli, we sho

Riga-Fede disease: report of a case in an infant

Riga-Fede disease (RFD) is a rare, benign condition found in infants, characterized by ulcers in the oral mucosa, around the tongue and gums.It is caused 929 by repeated injuries, caused by movements of the tongue over the lower incisors.It usually coexists with neonatal teeth.Although it starts as a small ulcer, it can progress to a large fibrous

Antitumor Efficacy of Liposome-Encapsulated NVP-BEZ235 Combined with Irreversible Electroporation for Head and Neck Cancer

Irreversible electroporation (IRE) kills tumor cells by the Gift Card delivery of short pulses of strong electric fields.However, the field strength decreases with distance from the treatment center.When IRE cannot eradicate the entire tumor mass, the surviving tumor cells can regrow.NVP-BEZ235 is a dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitor that has been administer
