Berberine (BBR), a compound purified from Cortidis rhizoma, reduces serum cholesterol,
triglycerides, and LDL-cholesterol of hypercholesterolemic patients and high fat diet fed …

Amylin is the major component of pancreatic amyloid, which is implicated in the development
of type 2 diabetes. It is costored with insulin in the secretory granules of pancreatic β-cells …

The drainage density(Dd) is an important index to show the fluvial geomorphology. The study
on Dd is helpful to understand evolution of the whole hydrological and geomorphic process…

FAM3B mRNA has been predicted to have multiple splicing forms. Its secretory form PANDER
is decreased in gastric cancers with high invasiveness and metastasis. Here we found that …

A flight of nine river terraces has been well developed and preserved along the course of
the lower Taohe River. Based on optically stimulated luminescence (OSL), electron spin …

The Weihe River in central China is the largest tributary of the Yellow River and contains a
well-developed strath terrace system. A new chronology for the past 1.11 Ma for a spectacular …

Objective Heat shock factor 1 (HSF1), a transcriptional regulator of heat shock proteins (HSPs),
is an attractive therapeutic target for cancer. However, only a few HSF1 inhibitors have …

Background Cellular and animal studies implicate multiple roles of amylin in regulating
insulin action, glucose and lipid metabolisms. However, the role of amylin in obesity related …

Research into river processes in different climatic and geomorphic areas is vital for a clearer
understanding of the non-linear responses of rivers to climate change. The Huaihe River (…

Fluvial terraces are important geomorphic markers for modern valley development. When
coupled with numeric ages, terraces can provide abundant information about tectonic, climatic, …
