The mass of carbon stored as organic matter in terrestrial systems is sufficiently large to play an important role in the global biogeochemical cycling of CO2 and O2.Field measurements of radiocarbon-depleted particulate organic carbon (POC) in rivers suggest that terrestrial organic matter persists in surface environments over millennial (or great
Xerophilic fungi contaminating historically valuable easel paintings from Slovenia
Historically valuable canvas paintings are often exposed to conditions enabling microbial deterioration.Painting materials, mainly of organic origin, in combination with high humidity and other environmental conditions, favor microbial metabolism and growth.These preconditions are often present during exhibitions or storage in old buildings, such a
A pan-tumor-siRNA aptamer chimera to block nonsense-mediated mRNA decay inflames and suppresses tumor progression
Immune-checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy has changed the clinical outcome of many types of aggressive tumors, but there still remain many cancer patients that do not Salt Lamps respond to these treatments.There is an unmet need to develop a feasible clinical therapeutic platform to increase the rate of response to ICB.Here we use a previously descr
