ECOLOGICAL DYNAMICS OF TWO DISTINCT VIRUSES INFECTING MARINE EUKARYOTIC DECOMPOSER THRAUSTOCHYTRIDS (LABYRINTHULOMYCETES, STRAMENOPILES).

Ecological Dynamics of Two Distinct Viruses Infecting Marine Eukaryotic Decomposer Thraustochytrids (Labyrinthulomycetes, Stramenopiles).

Thraustochytrids are cosmopolitan osmotrophic or heterotrophic microorganisms that are considered as important decomposers in coastal ecosystems.However, because of a lack of estimation method for each genus or systematic group of them, relatively little is known about their ecology in situ.Previously, we reported two distinct types of virus infect

Specifically targeting ERK1 or ERK2 kills Melanoma cells

Abstract Background Overcoming the notorious apoptotic resistance of melanoma cells remains a therapeutic challenge given dismal survival of patients with metastatic melanoma.However, recent clinical trials using a BRAF inhibitor revealed encouraging results for patients with advanced BRAF mutant bearing melanoma, but drug resistance accompanied by

Sound reduction by metamaterial-based acoustic enclosure

In many practical systems, acoustic radiation control on noise sources contained within a finite volume by an acoustic enclosure moen rothbury faucet is of great importance, but difficult to be accomplished at low frequencies due to the enhanced acoustic-structure interaction.In this work, we propose to use acoustic metamaterials as the enclosure t
