Chronic NaAsO2 exposure promotes migration and invasion of prostate cancer cells by Akt/GSK-3β/β-catenin/TCF4 axis-mediated epithelial-mesenchymal transition by Zhi-Hui Zhang, Hai-Xin Yan, Ming-Dong Liu, Feng-Wen Niu, Kai Yao, Shi-Yao Feng, Xi Li, Yuan-Hua Chen, Dong-Dong Xie

“…Mechanically, NaAsO2 promoted GSK-3β inactivation in the ''disruption complex'' through Akt- mediated phosphorylation at serine 9, and then inhibited the phosphorylation and ubiquitination degradation of β-catenin, which led to its nuclear translocation. Ly294002, a selective phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt inhibitor, suppressed the β-catenin/TCF4 complex activation and EMT through blocking Akt-mediated GSK-3β inactivation in the ''disruption complex'' in chronic NaAsO2 exposed DU145 and PC-3 cells. …”

A multifactor coupled rarly-warning model for pipeline landslide hazards based on the dynamic evolutionary process of disaster by Sen WU, Dexu QI, Hu LI, Yu LAN, Jiang LI, Mingzhi SUN

“…However, the failure to account for the correlation between various indicators has led to a high frequency of false alarms. Based on the analysis of the dynamic evolutionary process of pipeline landslide hazards, this study proposes four stages of pipeline landslide hazards: (1) rainfall on the landslide leads to surface infiltration; (2) the groundwater level rises increasing the slope self-weight increases and reducing the geotechnical parameter; (3) the slope has undergone local deformation; (4) the landslide slides entirely and threatens pipeline safety. …”
