17beta-estradiol (E2) can rapidly induce cAMP production, but the conditions under which these cAMP levels are best measured and the signaling pathways responsible for the consequent prol...
Ventilator-associated pneumonia remains a major challenge in the intensive care unit. The role for invasive diagnostic methods (e.g., bronchoscopy) remains unclear. We hypothesized that i...
The Arabidopsis thaliana TGG1 gene encodes thioglucoside glucohydrolase (myrosinase), an enzyme catalysing the hydrolysis of glucosinolate compounds. The enzyme is involved in plant defen...
For multidimensional activated rate processes controlled by diffusive crossing of a saddle point region, we show that a one-dimensional reaction coordinate can be constructed even when th...

Bone marrow-derived endothelial precursor cells incorporate into neovasculature and have been successfully used as vehicles for gene delivery to brain tumors. To determine whether systemi...
We recently started a hearing screening program for the newborns of the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) of Shanghai Children's Medical Center. The program consisted of a two-step scre...
Chronic maxillary atelectasis (CMA) is characterized by a reduced maxillary sinus volume due to an inward bowing of one or more of the sinus walls. The disorder is probably caused by an o...
To examine the changes in blood-soluble phospholipase A(2)-IIA levels caused by surgical stress and postoperative infections.We retrospectively analyzed a prospective database of 40 patie...
