Global age-sex-specific fertility, mortality, healthy life expectancy (HALE), and population estimates in 204 countries and territories, 1950–2019: a comprehensive demographic anal... by Haidong, Wang

“…InterpretationOver the past 20 years, fertility rates have been dropping steadily and life expectancy has been increasing, with few exceptions. Much of this change follows historical patterns linking social and economic determinants, such as those captured by the GBD Socio-demographic Index, with demographic outcomes. …”

The mechanisms of resistance of anthrax lethal toxin (LeTx)-induced cytotoxicity in AML cells. (c2018) by Abou Harb, Monica

“…Our results indicate that vertical inhibition by SCH772984 rendered the resistant cell lines sensitive to the inhibition of the MAPK-pathway and showed an increased cytotoxic effect once used in combination with anthrax lethal toxin compared to the use of anthrax lethal toxin alone.…”

Potential mechanisms of human recombinant arginase I (Co)-PEG5000 [HuArgI (CO) - PRG5000] induced cytotoxicity in glioblastoma cells. (c2018) by El Jawhari, Yassmine

“…Cytotoxicity of [HuArgI (Co)-PEG5000] was tested on two GBM cell lines, namely A172 and U251. Both cell lines showed increased sensitivity at longer incubation periods of [HuArgI (Co)-PEG5000] treatment with IC50 values in the pM range, a result attributable to the arginine auxotrophy expressed in those two cell lines. …”

Phospho-MEK1/2 and uPAR Expression Determine Sensitivity of AML Blasts to a Urokinase-Activated Anthrax Lethal Toxin (PrAgU2/LF) 1 by Nasser, Selim

“…PrAgU2/LF was cytotoxic to five out of nine AML cell lines. Cytotoxicity of PrAgU2/LF appeared to be nonapoptotic and was associated with MAPK activation and urokinase activity because all the PrAgU2/LF-sensitive cell lines showed both uPAR expression and high levels of MEK1/2 phosphorylation. …”

Stabilization of Pluronic P-105 Micelles with an Interpenetrating Network of N,N-Diethylacrylamide by Pruitt, John D.

“…The polymerizations resulted in an interpenetrating network of poly(NNDEA) and P-105 that stabilized the micelles at concentrations below the critical micellar concentration of free P-105. The NNDEA was cross-linked with N,N′-bis(acryoyl)cystamine (BAC), and the degree of micellar stability was determined using dynamic light scattering and the fluorescent probe diphenylhexatriene (DPH).The increased micellar stability was not permanent and disappeared over a time period of days to weeks.…”
