“…Additionally, the expression of key factors of WNT/β-catenin signaling pathway were investigated. In vivo animal experiments were conducted to assess the effect of gingival fibroblasts on BSM-mediated bone regeneration.ResultsGingival fibroblasts and BSMs co-culture environment did not affect MMSCs proliferation but significantly inhibited ALP expression and activity, as well as osteogenic gene and protein expression, while promoting expression of fibrogenic markers. …”

Simultaneous determination of 11 kinds of siloxanes in drinking water and source water using solid-phase microextraction combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry by Sijie Liu, Jie Ma, Su Jiang

“…It has been reported that methylsiloxane has toxic effects on the nervous, immune and reproductive systems of aquatic animals, and is carcinogenic and mutagenic. Therefore, in order to protect human health, it is urgent to establish a method for the determination of siloxane content in drinking water and source water.MethodsHerein, this paper proposes a precise, fast, and selective method using solid-phase microextraction combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS) method for the simultaneous detection of 11 kinds of siloxanes in drinking water and source water. …”

Improved estimates for extinction probabilities and times to extinction for populations of tsetse (Glossina spp) by Damian, Kajunguri, Elisha B., Are, John W., Hargrove

“…These mortality levels can be achieved for some species using insecticide-treated targets or cattle— providing thereby a simple, effective and cost-effective method of controlling and eradicating tsetse, and also human and animal trypanosomiasis. Our results are of further interest in the modern situation where increases in temperature are seeing the real possibility that tsetse will go extinct in some areas, without the need for intervention, but have an increased chance of surviving in other areas where they were previously unsustainable due to low temperatures.…”

Ex vivo delivery of recombinant IL-10 to human donor lungs by Jonathan C. Yeung, Terumoto Koike, Dirk Wagnetz, Tiago N. Machuca, Riccardo Bonato, Mingyao Liu, Stephen Juvet, Marcelo Cypel, Shaf Keshavjee

“…However, the very short half-life of IL-10 in vivo (∼2 hours) has necessitated the use of gene therapy in almost all animal models of lung transplantation. Because isolation of the donor lung on the ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) circuit removes it from the influence of renal and hepatic clearance mechanisms, a much-prolonged half-life of IL-10 is anticipated. …”
