The synthesis of CRP is stimulated by interleukin-1 (IL-1) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF). A rise in serum levels of CRP often reflects tissue damage. Collectively, these data support the hypothesis that inflammation can be the DCC reawakening factor and therefore can function as a cancer-...
Finally, because of the increasing body of literature that has identified diabetes as an important factor to consider when recommending revascularization, scenarios indicating the presence of diabetes are provided.

In addition, advanced technologies applying more than two different kinds of forces, namely complex force, were introduced. Overall, we critically reviewed the state-of-the-art of converged various forces for detection of biomolecules with novelty of DEP. Keywords: biomolecule separation; ...
where the proportionality factor 𝜂η is the viscosity [29]. For a constant stress experiment, the strain of a dashpot is linear in time, thereby introducing the desired time-dependent behavior. It also facilitates hysteresis because the sign of the stress changes with the strain rate. By co...
[134] examined the effects of eight anticancer drugs on the mechanical properties of human prostate cancer cells (PC-3) using a control-based nanoindentation measurement protocol on an AFM. By measuring the Young’s modulus of PC-3 cells treated with the drugs, it was observed that the drugs...
