Development of therapeutic agents for severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) viral infection using short interfering RNA (siRNA) inhibitors exemplifies a powerful new means to combat emerging… (More)
Lung cancer, predominantly by non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths over the world. Late diagnosis is one of important reasons for high mortality rate in… (More)
The deregulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) is often implicated in the control of sensitivity to radiotherapy. The objective of the present study was to identify the association between miR‑558 and… (More)
The cDNA library normalized by reassociation is a newly-developed, effective platform for EST acquisition and gene discovery. This paper presents the principle, procedure, comparison, deficiencies,… (More)
A new PCR method is described here to amplify simultaneously several fragments sharing the same template in a single PCR step with a hemi-primer. Using this method, we successfully detected various… (More)
Grifola frondosa, is a valuable medicinal fungus. High quality total genomic DNA is difficult to prepare due to its high polysaccharide content. A method for the preparation of Grifola frondosa total… (More)
As a novel recurrent neural network (RNN), an echo state network (ESN) that utilizes a reservoir with many randomly connected internal units and only trains the readout, avoids increased complexity… (More)
