Despite growing interest and a recent surge in papers, the role of autophagy in glucose and
lipid metabolism is unclear. We produced mice with skeletal muscle–specific deletion of …

Background: Several thyroid ultrasound (TUS) findings have been associated with an
increased risk for thyroid cancer; however, there is no consensus as to the format and style for …

To examine the in vivo function of presenilin-1 (PS1), we selectively deleted the PS1 gene
in excitatory neurons of the adult mouse forebrain. These conditional knockout mice were …

Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) plays an important role in the regulation of energy
homeostasis during starvation and has an excellent therapeutic potential for the treatment of type …

Silica nanoparticle-filled poly(ethylene 2,6-naphthalate) (PEN) composites were melt-blended
to improve the mechanical and rheological properties of PEN. The melt viscosity and total …

The fabrication of materials with one-dimensional nanoscale structures is of great promise
for the fundamental understanding of the roles of dimensionality and size in an optical, …

Objective: To evaluate the immediate effects of rapid maxillary expansion (RME) on the
transverse skeletal and dentoalveolar changes with bone-borne (C-expander) and tooth-borne …

INTRODUCTION: This article illustrates a new surgical guide system that uses cone-beam
computed tomography (CBCT) images to replicate dental models; surgical guides for the …

This study reviews the problems in the use and disposal of poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET)
and includes the concise background of virgin and recycled PET as well as their possible …

γ-Secretase facilitates the regulated intramembrane proteolysis ofselect type I membrane
proteins that play diverse physiological roles inmultiple cell types and tissue. In this study, we …
