Loss of MTAP expression is strongly linked to homozygous 9p21 deletion, unfavorable tumor phenotype, and noninflamed microenvironment in urothelial bladder cancer by Natalia Gorbokon, Niklas Wößner, Viktoria Ahlburg, Henning Plage, Sebastian Hofbauer, Kira Furlano, Sarah Weinberger, Paul Giacomo Bruch, Simon Schallenberg, Florian Roßner, Sefer Elezkurtaj, Maximilian Lennartz, Niclas C Blessin, Andreas H Marx, Henrik Samtleben, Margit Fisch, Michael Rink, Marcin Slojewski, Krystian Kaczmarek, Thorsten Ecke, Tobias Klatte, Stefan Koch, Nico Adamini, Sarah Minner, Ronald Simon, Guido Sauter, Henrik Zecha, David Horst, Thorsten Schlomm, Lukas Bubendorf, Martina Kluth

“…The 9p21 deletion rate increased from pTaG2 low (9.2% homozygous, 25.8% heterozygous) to pTaG2 high (32.6%, 20.9%; p < 0.0001) but was slightly lower in pTaG3 (16.7%, 16.7%) tumors. In pT2–4 carcinomas, 23.3% homozygous and 17.9% heterozygous deletions were found, and deletions were tied to advanced pT (p = 0.0014) and poor overall survival (p = 0.0461). …”

Evaluation of the possibility of Spirulina Spirulina platensis culture in the deep aquifer well, Seistan, Southeastern Iran by Abdolali Rahdari, Ali Khosravanizadeh, Sahel Pakzad Toochaei, Roghayeh Karami

“…At the end of the test period, the growth indicators and pigment concentration of the produced algae were measured, and by comparing the data obtained in different treatments, the ability of deep aquifer well water to grow Spirulina algae was determined.Results and discussion: The results showed that the highest biomass was obtained in the treatment of tap water and Urmia salt (2.91 ± 0.14 g/L) and the growth rate in the treatments containing deep aquifer water was lower than the other treatments.Conclusions: The cultivation of Spirulina in the water of deep well (No. 1 Seistan) has a low efficiency compared to tap water, and it is necessary to modify and change its composition in some way so that Spirulina can be cultivated in with proper efficiency. …”
