STIM1 signals through NFAT1 independently of Orai1 and SOCE to regulate breast cancer cell migration by Ayat S. Hammad (9592374)

“…SOCE has been shown to be important for breast cancer cell migration where knockdown of SOCE components (STIM1 or Orai1) decreases cancer metastasis. Here we show unexpectedly that complete knockout of STIM1 (STIM1-KO) using gene editing in metastatic MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells results in faster migration and enhanced invasion capacity. …”

Frugal innovation for sustainable rural development by Mokter, Hossain

“…Using a grounded theory method and based on 22 interviews with key informants related to 13 cases of frugal enterprise in South Asia, this qualitative study attempts to accomplish the aim of the study. We developed a classification that identifies the increasing positive and decreasing negative parameters of SDGs to assess the extent to which frugal enterprises contribute to specific SDGs. …”
