BackgroundTo address the lack of evidence supporting invasion by three invasive plant species (Imperata cylindrica, Lantana camara, and Chromolaena odorata) in tropical ecosystems, we compared the ecophysiological and leaf anatomical traits of these three invasive alien species with those of species native to Sempu Island, Indonesia. Data on four p...

The aberrant expression of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) plays roles in cancer development. In this work, we measured the expression of lncRNA terminal differentiation-induced non-coding RNA (TINCR) in urothelial carcinoma of the bladder (UCB), determined its impact on the proliferation of UCB in vitro and in vivo and identified its possible target...

Understanding whether people view non-native species as belonging in a place will help guide important conservation efforts ranging from eradications of exotics to re-introduction of extirpated species. In this manuscript we describe the degree to which Swedish hunters perceive key wildlife species as belonging in Swedish nature. We surveyed 2014 S...

Lymphocytic and collagenous colitis are types of microscopic colitis (MC) that commonly cause chronic watery diarrhea, but there are no macroscopic features of MC that can be detected during colonoscopy. Endoscopists therefore often collect multiple random colonic biopsies, potentially oversampling, increasing times of colonoscopy and slide review....

BackgroundBreast cancer is a heterogeneous disease that was explained recently by the presence of multiple molecular subtypes. These subtypes are the luminal A (LA), luminal B (LB), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), and triple-negative (TN). In this study, we aim to investigate whether ultrasound imaging features can play a role in p...

Iron is an essential nutrient required as a cofactor for many biological processes. As a fungal commensal-pathogen of humans, Candida albicans encounters a range of bioavailable iron levels in the human host and maintains homeostasis with a conserved regulatory circuit. How C. albicans senses and responds to iron availability is unknown. In model y...

PurposeAlthough the role of classical (clinico-pathological features) and modern prognostic factors (immune biomarkers) has been described in pathogenesis of squamous cell carcinoma cervix (SCCC), the role of VEGF and PCNA-positive endothelial cells in CD34 expressing blood vessels has been a subject of great interest and has not been validated yet...
