Osteoporosis is the most common bone metabolic disease.Abnormal osteoclast formation and resorption play a fundamental role in osteoporosis pathogenesis.Recent researches have greatly broaden our understanding of molecular mechanisms of osteoporosis.However, the molecular mechanisms of key mRNAs and lncRNAs, and their interactions leading to osteop
The antiviral effect of four porphyrin-based Metal-Organic Frameworks (PMOFs) with Al and Zr, namely Al-TCPP, PCN-222, PCN-223 and PCN-224 was assessed for the first time against HCoV-229E, two highly pathogenic coronaviruses (SARS-CoV-2 and MERS-CoV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV).Infection tests in vitro were done under dark or light exposure for di
The study interrogated the reasons that underlie student entrepreneurship, the nature of student entrepreneurship, and the outcomes of student entrepreneurship, the challenges encountered and how the students cope with the challenges.Theoretically, the Wheels study is informed by the human agency theory that views entrepreneurship as an intentional
Slash-and-burn shifting cultivation is common in indigenous societies in the Amazon basin.The large land use of this farming practice is of increasing concern because most indigenous communities are faced with population growth and territory losses.Our study aims to evaluate the feasibility of transforming shifting cultivation into a permanent crop
Summary: Kissing bugs are known to produce anticoagulant venom that facilitates blood-feeding.However, it is unknown how this saliva evolved and if the venom produced by the entomophagous ancestors of kissing bugs would have helped or hindered the trophic shift.In this study, we show that venoms produced by extant predatory assassin bugs have stron
