Transmembrane prostate androgen-induced protein (TMEPAI), also known as PMEPA1, is highly expressed in many types of cancer and promotes oncogenic abilities. However, the mechanisms whereby TMEPAI facilitates tumorigenesis are not fully understood. We previously established TMEPAI-knockout (KO) cell...

Abstract The abundance of planets with orbital periods of a few to tens of days suggests that exoplanets experience complex dynamical histories. Planets in young stellar clusters or associations have well-constrained ages and therefore provide an opportunity to explore the dynamical evolution of exo...

Abstract. As the adverse impacts of hydrological extremes increase in many regions of the world, a better understanding of the drivers of changes in risk and impacts is essential for effective flood and drought risk management and climate adaptation. However, there is currently a lack of comprehensi...

The impacts of individual salinity (‘ST’) and waterlogging (‘WL’) on crops are well-documented; however, the synergistic effects of concurrent salinity and waterlogging (‘SWL’) have garnered less scientific scrutiny. Here, we investigated the individual and combined effects of ‘SWL’ on four soybean ...
