The relationship between social support and psychological crisis vulnerability among family impoverished undergraduates: the intermediary role of psychological resilience by Weimin Yuan, Jinhui Ning, Mengke Huo, Yiwei Feng

“…Second, we expanded the independent variables that affect psychological crisis vulnerability among family impoverished undergraduates and conducted multiple linear regression analyses. Finally, we employed a structural equation modeling approach to analyze the underlying mechanisms between social support and psychological crisis vulnerability and to test the conspicuousness of the mediating role of psychological resilience in the process by which social support affects psychological crisis vulnerability.ResultsAnalysis of 1,549 valid questionnaires revealed that the overall level of psychological crisis vulnerability among family impoverished undergraduates was moderate. …”

Highly Stable Antitumor Silver-Lipid Nanoparticles Optimized for Targeted Therapy by Darwish A, Sándor N, Szenti I, Marosvölgyi T, Juhász K, Rónavári A, Kachal E, Kutus B, Kónya Z, Balogi Z

“…Used as a non-tumor control, HEK293 cells were less vulnerable to LAgs as compared to free AgNPs. Finally, applying the most stable lipid composition, PC/PG/SM-LAg-c, and in part PC/PG/SM-LAg-u effectively inhibited a tissue-like invasion of melanoma spheroids.Conclusion: Altogether, highly stable purified LAg formulations were created, which effectively block survival, clonogenic potential and invasion of melanoma cells, therefore could be promising NP platforms for targeted tumor therapy.Keywords: silver nanoparticle, liposome, encapsulation, tumor cell viability, tumor spheroid invasion…”
