Astaxanthin (AST) is a product made from marine organisms that has been used as an anti-cancer supplement.It reduces pontin expression and induces apoptosis in SKBR3, a breast cancer cell line.Using Western blotting and qRT-PCR analyses, this study revealed that in the T47D and BT20 breast cancer cell lines, AST inhibits expression of pontin and mu
Ten new species belonging to three new genera (Atlantisina gen.nov., Bathycyclopora gen.nov., Calvetopora gen.nov.) of umbonulomorph bryozoans from northeastern Atlantic seamounts, islands, and the continental slope are introduced.We furthermore erect the new family Atlantisinidae fam.nov.for these genera.Eight new species belong to the new genus A
Abstract Modelling insulin-glucose homeostasis may provide novel functional insights.In particular, simple models are THYROSMART clinically useful if they yield diagnostic methods.Examples include the homeostasis model assessment (HOMA) and the quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (QUICKI).However, limitations of these approaches have been
New Silk Roads and their economic, political and cultural aspects are new components of our modernity.As such, they raise THYROSMART questions and call for new studies.They are best addressed within interdisciplinary approaches exploring a wide range of subjects across a variety of geographical and historical settings.The cultural facets of the new
