Traditional open surgical approaches for hypopharyngeal carcinomas carry a great risk of developing treatment-related morbidity.Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) is an established treatment modality for head and neck cancer and can minimise this morbidity.Owing to the access and improved flexibility of the robotic system, hypopharyngeal tumours can

A distinctive feature of ferroptosis is intracellular iron accumulation and the impairment of antioxidant capacity, resulting in a lethal accumulation of lipid peroxides leading to cell death.This study was conducted to determine whether inhibiting isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) may help to prevent foam cell formation by reducing oxidized low-de

The discrete-time quantum walk provides a versatile platform for exploring abundant topological phenomena due to its intrinsic spin-orbit coupling.In this work, we study the non-Hermitian second-order topology in a two-dimensional non-unitary coinless discrete-time quantum walk, which is realizable in the three-dimensional photonic waveguides.By ad

Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) sustain and modulate spermatogenesis through intricate signaling pathways and transcription factors.Promyelocytic leukemia zinc-finger (Plzf, also known as Zbtb16) has been identified as a critical transcription factor influencing various signaling and differentiation pathways.Plzf plays a pivotal role in regulating
