Biomass cogeneration plants in wood Egg Cup industry are usually designed to cover large share of site heat demand.However, plant capability to cover peak load in winter could lead to low utilisation of installed capacities at sites whit high seasonal heat demand fluctuations.At some sites, where income of sold electricity is essential for plant in
Functional Genomic Validation of the Roles of Soluble Starch Synthase IIa in Japonica Rice Endosperm
The enzyme starch synthase IIa (SSIIa) in cereals has catalytic and regulatory roles during the synthesis of amylopectin that influences the functional properties of the grain.Rice endosperm SSIIa is more active in indica accessions compared to japonica lines due to functional SNP variations in the coding region of the structural gene.In this study

Non-Canonical Hedgehog Signaling Is a Positive Regulator of the WNT Pathway and Is Required for the Survival of Colon Cancer Stem Cells
Summary: Colon cancer is a heterogeneous tumor driven by a subpopulation of cancer Dollhouses stem cells (CSCs).To study CSCs in colon cancer, we used limiting dilution spheroid and serial xenotransplantation assays to functionally define the frequency of CSCs in a panel of patient-derived cancer organoids.These studies demonstrated cancer organoid
