Heat treatment and additive effects on microstructure and properties of tetragonal-(2-3 mol%) yttria-stabilized-zirconia
The role of selected additives (Al$\sb2$O$\sb3$, yttrium aluminum garnet (3Y$\sb2$O$\sb3$ $\cdot$ Al$\sb2$O$\sb3$) and Zr) in microstructural development, phase stability and mechanical behavior of predominantly-tetragonal (2-3 mol%) yttria-stabilized-zirconia (YSZ) was investigated. Preliminary …

The Potential of CRL4-DCAF1 and KSR1 as Therapeutic Targets in Low-grade Merlin-Deficient Tumours
… targeting both DCAF1 and KSR1 in meningioma had additive effects on proliferation. We also identified that CRL4-DCAF1 facilitates KSR1 dependent RAF/Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)/ Extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK) kinase (MEK)/ERK pathway activity. We showed MLN3651, a …
