Fluorescence decay-associated spectra at 77 K showed distinct excitation-energy-quenching components and alterations of energy-transfer pathways in the FCP complexes under the HL condition. These findings provide insights into molecular and functional mechanisms of the dynamic regulation of FCPs in this diatom under excess-light…[Read more]

Yes-associated protein (YAP), a major effector of the Hippo signalling pathway, is widely implicated in vascular pathophysiology processes. Here, we identify a new role of YAP in the regulation of vascular senescence. The inhibition or deficiency and overexpression of YAP were performed in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and…[Read more]

In summary, both non-concentrated and concentrated VHP inactivate prions and may be useful for the low-temperature sterilization of prion-contaminated medical devices.In this study, we developed a novel quantitative analysis method to enhance the detection capability for oral cancer screening. We combined two different optical techniques, a…[Read more]
