Rice blast disease occurs in rice production areas all over the world and is the most important disease in Japan. Remote sensing techniques may provide a mean for detecting disease intensity for large area without being subjected to raters. This study evaluated the use of airborne hyperspectral imagery to measure the severity of panicle blast in field crops. Hyperspectral remote sensing imagery...

BACKGROUND Cholesterol plays an important role in cancer development, drug resistance and chemoimmuno-sensitivity. Statins, cholesterol lowering drugs, can induce apoptosis, but also negatively interfere with CD-20 and rituximab-mediated activity. Our goal is to identify the alternative targets that could reduce cholesterol levels but do not interfere with CD-20 in chemo immunotherapy of chroni...

The SiC particles (SiCp, mass fraction 30 %) reinforced with the Al-Si-Cu-Mg matrix composite have been prepared using one-way press method, sintering, and hot extrusion. The composite was subjected to solid solution treatment at temperatures of 470 °C, 485 °C, 500 °C, 515 °C, and 530 °C for 4 h. The sample was then subjected to ageing treatment at temperatures of 160 °C and 180 °C during diffe...

We developed a new technique that monitors metabolic competency in female heterozygotes for ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (OTCD). The method uses mass spectrometry to measure conversion of 15 NH 4 Cl to [ 15 N]urea and [515 N]glutamine following an oral load of 15 NH 4 Cl. We found that heterozygotes converted significantly less NH 3 nitrogen to urea, with this difference being particul...

Abstract Dysregulated circular RNAs (circRNAs) are implicated in prostate cancer (PCa) progression. Hsa_circ_0081234 (circTRRAP) has been revealed as a facilitator PCa, but the mechanisms associated with circTRRAP PCa progression largely unclear. The present study was to explore regulatory mechanism of circTRRAP-mediated A total 50 tissues and normal were collected. RNA levels circTRRAP, microR...
