STROMAL EXPRESSION OF THE CORE CLOCK GENE PERIOD 2 IS ESSENTIAL FOR TUMOR INITIATION AND METASTATIC COLONIZATION

Stromal Expression of the Core Clock Gene Period 2 Is Essential for Tumor Initiation and Metastatic Colonization

The circadian clock regulates diverse physiological processes by maintaining a 24-h gene expression pattern.Genetic and environmental cues that disrupt normal clock rhythms can lead to cancer, yet the extent to which this effect is controlled by the cancer cells versus non-malignant cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME) is not clear.Here we set

Decolonizing the training of engineers and scientists: The case of the Faculty of Physical Sciences and Mathematics at Universidad de Chile

Given current global crises, there is a need to move beyond the anthropocentric, reductionist and short-term vision of the world, imposed through the hegemony of Western culture.Are we still in time to change the prevailing hegemonic vision of the world and better address global crises and their local impacts? What is the role of intercultural high

Experimental Research on Thermomechanical Properties of Thermal Energy Storage Cement Mortar Incorporated with Phase-Change Material

In the current work, the thermal energy storage cement mortars were prepared by physical mixing between cement mortar and form-stable hydrated Outdoor Grill salt based on disodium hydrogen phosphate dodecahydrate/carbon nanofiber-expanded graphite (DSP/CNF-EG).The DSP/CNF-EG was incorporated into cement mortar through replacing standard sand of 5 w
