BACKGROUND: Two polymorphisms, -260C/T and -651C/T, in the CD14 gene have been implicated in susceptibility to cancer.However, the results remain inconclusive.This meta-analysis aimed to investigate the association between the two polymorphisms and risk of cancer.METHODS: All eligible case-control studies published up to March 2014 were identified
Linker for activation of T cells (LAT) is a central adaptor protein in proximal T cell activation.A key element of its adaptor function is the efficiency with which LAT interacts with its binding partners.Such efficiency is controlled by the local concentration of LAT as well as the vicinity to up- and downstream interaction partners, i.e.LAT local
smartgiro Over the last several years, evidence has accumulated that the GABAA receptor is compromised in animal models for fragile X syndrome (FXS), a common hereditary form of intellectual disability.In mouse and fly models, agonists of the GABAA receptor were able to rescue specific consequences of the fragile X mutation.Here, we imaged and quan
Emerging new communication standards like 5G or 6G aggravate the circuit design of radio-frequency generation systems as they constantly increase demand on high bandwidths, low latency, and high spectral purity.The utilization of high- $Q $ oscillators, however, provides a possibility of optimisation of radio-frequency oscillators regarding their p
