BackgroundMetabolic flexibility is the ability of an organism to switch between substrates for energy metabolism, in response to the changing nutritional state and needs of the organism. On the cellular level, metabolic flexibility revolves around the tricarboxylic acid cycle by switching acetyl coenzyme A production from glucose to fatty acids and...

BackgroundSmall non-coding RNAs (sRNAs) regulate bacterial gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. STnc640 is a type of sRNA that was identified in Salmonella Typhimurium.ResultsIn this study, STnc640 in Salmonella Enteritidis was confirmed to be an Hfq-dependent sRNA. TargetRNA software analysis showed that fimbrial genes fimA and bcfA ...

Long-range sub-GHz technologies such as LoRaWAN, SigFox, IEEE 802.15.4, and DASH7 are increasingly popular for academic research and daily life applications. However, especially in the European Union (EU), the use of their corresponding frequency bands are tightly regulated, since they must confirm to the short-range device (SRD) regulations. Regul...

Abstract The article aims to advance the understanding of the successive circumvention of regulations by organizations, to determine whether it is possible to characterize them as purposeful actions, while the institutional literature analyzes decoupling and circumvention as sporadic activities. It analyzes the responses adopted by health plan comp...

Our working life has become increasingly flexible, so have our housing needs. The housing market has very well understood this paradigm shift and the private sector has started developing innovative housing concepts emphasizing new urban “live-work” lifestyles. In particular, housing developments delivering small dwellings with shared spaces and se...

AbstractTobacco continues to kill about 0.48 million Americans per year and there are currently 34.3 million smokers in the USA. As a consequence of the First Surgeon General’s Report on Tobacco in 1964, tobacco control interventions on part of the government led to a significant decline in conventional tobacco product usage over the last few decad...

Dual-specificity phosphatases (DUSPs) are a subset of protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs), many of which dephosphorylate the residues of phosphor-serine/threonine and phosphor-tyrosine on mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), and hence are also referred to as MAPK phosphatases (MKPs). Homologue of Vaccinia virus H1 phosphatase gene clone 5 (H...

The development of regional or local maximum permissible concentration (MPC) for a pollutant in the soil requires the field or laboratory simulation of pollution. The experimental design should include the control (uncontaminated soil with the background concentration of the pollutant) and at least three treatments with different pollutant concentr...

BackgroundThe marketing of unproven direct-to-consumer stem cell interventions is becoming widespread in Canada. There is little evidence supporting their use and they have been associated with a range of harms. Canada has been slower to act against clinics offering these interventions than other jurisdictions, including the United States. Here, we...
