Modulation of SLFN11 induces changes in DNA Damage response in breast cancer حسب Christophe Michel Raynaud (17449906)

"…Finally, as a definitive and specific way to modulate SLFN11 expression we implemented SLFN11 dCas9 (dead CRISPR associated protein 9) systems to specifically increase or decrease SLFN11 expression.</p><h3>Results</h3><p dir="ltr">After confirming the previously reported correlation between methylation of SLFN11 promoter and its expression across multiple cell lines, we showed in-vitro that decitabine and IFN-γ could increase moderately the expression of SLFN11 in both BT-549 and T47D cell lines. …"

Mixed siliciclastic-carbonate-evaporite sedimentation in an arid eolian landscape: The Khor Al Adaid tide-dominated coastal embayment, Qatar حسب John M., Rivers

"…These offshore-migrating eolian-derived sediments are being redistributed by tidal currents in an otherwise low-energy coastal zone, where in situ formation of carbonate mud and a low-diversity skeletal assemblage is ongoing within salinity-restricted environments. Three depositional sectors are delineated: 1) an energetic, linear, fault-controlled Entrance Channel into which the eolian dunes spill directly; 2) a relatively deep (up to 20 m) Outer Lagoon, interpreted to represent a flooded karst-collapse structure; and 3) a sprawling, low-energy, shallow (<2 m) Inner Lagoon occupying low-lying areas between deflated eolian dunes.Physical oceanographic modeling, integrating multi-seasonal current meter and tidal gage measurements, demonstrates tidal current flow velocities are relatively high in both the Entrance Channel and at the constricted entrance to the Inner Lagoon. …"
