Syntheses, Crystal Structures, and Physical Properties of La₅Cu₆O₄S₇ and La₅Cu_6.33O₄S₇ by George H. Chan (2419864)

“…In going from La₅Cu₆O₄S₇ to La₅Cu_6.33O₄S₇, the disruption of the ²_∞[Cu₆S₆⁵⁻] layer and the decrease in the overall Cu²⁺ (3d⁹) concentration lead to a significant decrease in the electrical conductivity.…”

EGFR inhibitor differentially modulates the expression of antigen presenting molecules and PD-L1 on HaCaT cells. by Jin S. Im (234975)

“…(B) HaCaT cells were treated with IFNγ at different concentrations ranging 1 pg/ml to 1000 pg/ml in the presence or absence of erlotinib at concentration of 10 μM for 24 hours, and assessed for surface expression of MHC-I, MHC-II, and PD-L1 in Mean Fluorescence Intensity (MFI). While the expression of MHC-I and MHC-II on HaCaT cells was further up-regulated in the presence of erlotinib and IFNγ at all dose range tested for MHC-I and at a greater than 1pg/ml for MHC-II compared to IFNγ alone, IFNγ induced overexpression of PD-L1 was abrogated by the addition of erlotinib to IFNγ at a greater than 100 pg/ml. …”

BPLF1 deubiquitinates TOP2 and stabilizes TOP2ccs. by Jinlin Li (2267896)
