Failure Mechanism of the Qianjiangping Slope in Three Gorges Reservoir Area, China by Zhenhua Zhang, Mingming Qian, Song Wei, Juxiang Chen

“…Study results suggest that with the reservoir water level rising, the toe of the slope was gradually submerged in reservoir water and the strength of rock mass submerged by reservoir water decreased due to water-rock interaction; furthermore, the heavy rainfall was rapidly injected into the slope through the interlayer staggered zone and slope surface, the groundwater table in the middle part of the slope rose rapidly, the sliding force of the slope increased, and the stress concentration appeared at the lower part of the slope; finally, the rock bridges submerged by reservoir water in the front of the slope fractured, and the failure of the slope occurred.…”

Transcriptional regulation by CHIP/LDB complexes. by Revital Bronstein, Liron Levkovitz, Nir Yosef, Michaela Yanku, Eytan Ruppin, Roded Sharan, Heiner Westphal, Brian Oliver, Daniel Segal

“…Moreover, by in vivo RNAi silencing we uncovered novel roles for two of the target genes, xbp1 and Gs-alpha, in early development of these structures. Taken together, our results suggest that loss of SSDP disrupts the normal balance between the CHIP-AP and the CHIP-PNR transcription complexes, resulting in down-regulation of CHIP-AP target genes and the concomitant up-regulation of CHIP-PNR target genes. …”
