BACKGROUND:Cervical cancer is one of the most common and lethal cancers in West Africa.Even though vaccines that protect against the most common Human papillomavirus (HPV) strains, 16 and 18, are currently in use in developed countries, the implementation of these vaccines in developing countries has been painfully slow, considering the pre-eminenc
This work tested near-infrared (NIR) and UV-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy coupled with chemometrics to characterize flours from different starch origins.In particular, eighteen starch-containing flours (e.g., type 00 flour, rye, barley, soybean, chestnut, potato, spelt, buckwheat, oat, millet, rice, durum wheat, amaranth, chickpea, sesame, corn, he
Abstract Background Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have emerged as vital regulators of the initiation and progression of diverse kinds of human cancers.In this study, we explored the role of hsa_circ_0000231 and its downstream pathway in CRC.Methods The expression profile of circRNAs in 5 pairs of CRC tissues and adjacent normal tissues were analyzed by
The purpose of this work was the production of cellulose micro-nanofibrils from wood pulps through a combination of mechanical treatments, including a recently patented process, a so-called aqueous counter collision (ACC) method followed by ultrasound treatment.Previously to ACC process, the raw pulp materials had to be downscaled to micro-sized di
