A feasibility study on non-invasive oxidative metabolism detection and acoustic assessment of human vocal cords by using optical technique.

abstract：:In eusocial Hymenoptera (ants, bees and wasps), queen and worker adult castes typically arise via environmental influences. A fundamental challenge is to understand how a single genome can thereby produce alternative phenotypes. A powerful approach is to compare the molecular basis of caste determination and different...

Here we show that knockdown of the BRD8 bromodomain protein - a subunit of the p400/Tip60 complex - leads to p21 induction, and concomitant cell cycle arrest in G1/S. W...
