EL IMPACTO AMBIENTAL DEL CRECIMIENTO ESPACIAL DE LA CIUDAD DE CORRIENTES SOBRE LAGUNAS PERIURBANAS by Felix I. contreras

“…Moreover, the analysis of the satellite images also showed that, after a long dried period, the areas previously occupied by shallow lakes were occupied by human settles. It is concluded that the occupation of new areas impact directly on the landscape, being of fundamental importance to implement land development policies to regulate and control the advance of the city frontier, particularly when vulnerable landscapes are affected exposing population to certain risks.…”

Subtype-specific role for Jagged1 in promoting or inhibiting breast tumor formation by Wen-Cheng Chung, Wei Wang, Lavanya Challagundla, Charles D. Moore, Sean E. Egan, Keli Xu

“…In agreement with mouse experiments, high expression of JAG1 and HEY1 are associated with better overall survival among patients with luminal tumors, whereas high expression of JAG1 and HEY2 are both associated with worse overall survival in basal subtype of human breast cancer. These results identified Jagged1 as an important regulator of mammary epithelial hierarchy and revealed differential roles of Jagged1-mediated Notch signaling in different subtypes of breast cancer arising from distinct cell types.…”
