Isogenic cell populations established from patient derived xenografts and expressing high levels of CD36 show a significantly increased ability to grow tumors in vivo. The tumor-promoting effect of CD36 is associated with an increase in the levels of pAkt and survivin. Importantly, combinatorial treatment of primary and established colorectal…[Read more]

The skill of spatial learning and orientation is fundamental in humans and differs widely among individuals. Despite its importance, however, the malleability of this skill through practice has scarcely been studied empirically, in contrast to psychometric spatial ability. Thus, this article examines the possibility of improving the accuracy of…[Read more]

Altogether, the phylogenetic data and the chemotaxonomic characteristics of this strain support that aSej3T represents a new species for which we propose the name Bradyrhizobium hipponense sp. nov. with the type strain aSej3T (=DSM 108913T=LMG 31020T).A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile and ovoid- to rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated…[Read more]
