Does fire always accelerate shrub expansion in Arctic tundra? Examining a novel grass-dominated successional trajectory on the Seward Peninsula by Teresa N. Hollingsworth (9106116)

“…Increasing burn severity and fire frequency corresponded with an increase in grass cover and a decrease in shrub basal area. We used multivariate ordination analysis to create a single integrator variable of fire effect that accounted for time after fire, burn severity, and number of times burned. …”

Correlation of urinary CXCL1 level with proteinuria during follow-up period. by Yanfeng Zhao (308108)

“…<p>For patients with high baseline urinary CXCL1 levels (case 1 & case 2), the variation tendencies of urinary CXCL1 and proteinuria were almost the same (A & B). For patients with middle levels of baseline urinary CXCL1 (case 3 & case 4), although proteinuria relieved a lot, urinary CXCL1 levels just decreased a little (C & D). …”

Metformin inhibits glutaminase activity in a dose dependent manner: from 17.5% at 10 mM up to 68% at 100 mM (A) (* p<0.05). by M. Mar Díaz-Herrero (646639)

“…<p>This effect, analyzed by Dixon plot, showed competitive inhibition kinetics, with a K_i of 14.28 mM (B). In Caco2 cells, metformin 20 mM showed 24% inhibition of glutaminase activity at 72 hours compared to control cultures (p<0.05) (glutamate production was decreased from 26.85±0.74 µM to 19.9±2.05 µM; p<0.05) (C).…”

Changes in the cell mortality and the percentages of clonal cells at different time points after PPP intervention. by Qi He (384033)

“…Cells at 0, 24, 48, 72, 96, and 168 h (7 d) after drug treatment were collected to calculate the mortality by Trypan Blue staining and smeared onto slides to detect the percentage of clonal cells using FISH. Over time, (A) the percentage of clonal cells progressively decreased. …”
