Press release from Business Wire
Saks Fifth Avenue to Launch the Holiday Season with Snowflake & Bubble Light Show Spectacular and Special Performance by the American Ballet Theater

 Windows brought to you by FIAT and MasterCard Worldwide

Tuesday, November 15, 2011
Saks Fifth Avenue to Launch the Holiday Season with Snowflake & Bubble Light Show Spectacular and Special Performance by the American Ballet Theater09:00 EST Tuesday, November 15, 2011 NEW YORK (Business Wire) -- Since 1949, Saks Fifth Avenue's world famous holiday displays have delighted children and adults alike. This year, the entire Fifth Avenue flagship comes alive with a dramatic light show projected onto the building; The Snowflake & Bubble Spectacular. Launching on the evening of November 21st, with a performance by the American Ballet Theater. Saks Fifth Avenue's holiday experience will be a revolutionary celebration of technology and fashion. The show will be an updated twist on last year's bubbles theme, joining the traditional Saks snowflakes as festive new symbols of joy and hope. The bubbles seemingly interact with snowflakes on the façade of the New York flagship store through state-of-the-art projection technology. The show will comprise of a full 3D model, which will be projected back onto the building to create a brighter, more impactful effect. It will utilize a custom-built 6-projector system and a new soundtrack, composed exclusively for the show, designed to bring the story of the Snowflake & the Bubble to life. The technology is made possible through accurately mapping the landmark building's details into a computer and creating a vivid 3D projection that can appear to change the features of the building itself. The visual effects include snow gathering up on ledges, bubbles emerging from the windows, and the entire façade appearing to freeze over. The new light show has been developed in partnership with internationally acclaimed marketing firm, Iris, whose extraordinary projections at the 2008 Summer Olympics and 2010 World Cup drew rave reviews. Steve Sadove, Chairman and CEO of Saks Fifth Avenue remarked, "The snowflake has been part of the holidays at Saks for years, and this season we're building on another festive element from last season: the bubble. The show is quite an undertaking, using state-of-the-art video technology to animate the entire Saks building. It, along with our windows will be a must-see for everyone spending the holiday season in New York." The Fifth Avenue windows will tie into the book, "Who Makes the Snow," in which a little girl looks for the source of the bubbles and snowflakes that everyone sees on the façade of Saks. Extending over twelve along Fifth Avenue this year, the holiday windows will truly be the largest display in recent history. Incorporating fashion into the fantasy, Saks Fifth Avenue has commissioned the following designers, Alexander McQueen, Nina Ricci, Proenza Schouler, Stella McCartney, Haider Ackermann, Naeem Khan, Rag & Bone, Olivier Theyskens, Marchesa, and Erdem to create stunning, one-of-a-kind dresses to be included in each of the holiday vignettes. This year, the holiday windows are brought to you by FIAT and MasterCard Worldwide, and their Priceless NYC campaign. The Fiat 500 by Gucci will be featured in one of the Saks Fifth Avenue holiday windows. The new Fiat 500 by Gucci limited-edition model represent the perfect combination of craftsmanship and style, and bring together two of Italy's most respected brands. In the year that sees the 150th anniversary of the unification of Italy and Gucci's 90th anniversary, these special editions of the iconic Fiat 500 and 500 Cabrio have been customized by Gucci Creative Director Frida Giannini in partnership with Fiat's Centro Stile. About Saks Fifth Avenue Saks Fifth Avenue, one of the world's preeminent specialty retailers, is renowned for its superlative American and international designer collections, its expertly edited assortment of handbags, shoes, jewelry, cosmetics and gifts, and the first-rate fashion expertise and exemplary client service of its Associates. Today, Saks operates 46 full-line stores in 22 states, 5 licensed stores in the Middle East and 2 licensed stores in Mexico City, 60 Saks Fifth Avenue OFF 5TH stores and saks.com, the company's online store. www.saks.com About the FIAT Brand The FIAT brand stands for discovery through passionate self-expression.

That philosophy is embodied by the North American introduction of the iconic Fiat 500 or Cinquecento – a small car that lives big. Italian at heart and rooted in a rich heritage, the 500 is synonymous with modern simple design blending form, function and a pride of ownership that is genuine. Reminiscent of the original Cinquecento, the 2012 Fiat 500 and Fiat 500c (Cabrio) build on the vehicle's global popularity. Since its initial launch in 2007, more than 500,000 Fiat 500 vehicles have been sold in more than 80 countries around the world. The model's unquestionable popularity is the result of the Fiat 500's great ability to deliver unmatched personalization options with advanced solutions in terms of quality, engine and passenger comfort.

Keystone XL
The Experts on Tar Sands
2.19.2014 · Aaron Burgess
In March 2013, the residents of Mayflower, Arkansas experienced firsthand the risks posed by tar sands pipelines when an Exxon pipeline carrying Canadian tar sands crude ruptured in their town, spilling 200,000 gallons of crude oil and leaving many residents ill.
Twenty-two homes were evacuated in the immediate aftermath of the spill, and ten months later many residents still cannot return home.
These devastating effects remain today, and the stench of tar sands still lingers in the air. This was not a typical oil spill. And tar sands crude is not what you see at the gas pump – it is dense and sinks in water, making cleanup nearly impossible.
The residents of Mayflower never stood to benefit from this pipeline. When tar sands travel through our neighborhood, our families bear the risk while Big Oil reaps the profits. Issues like the Keystone XL pipeline affect every American, but especially those living with this danger in their backyards.
The best way to prevent the next disastrous pipeline spill: say no to the Keystone XL pipeline.

Simple Formulas and Graphs for Design of Vented Loudspeaker Systems
This paper gives formulas for designing both fourth-order and sixth-order (equalized) systems for a given woofer. The formulas specify the frequency to which the box must be tuned, based on the woofer parameters. The designer has a choice of box volumes and cutoff frequencies (which are related). Graphs of the frequency response (versus box volume and woofer parameters) are also given. The graphs are scaled in units of Fs/Qt and VasQt squared, which makes them applicable to a very wide range of woofers and box sizes.

ABSTRACT: Introduction: During the last decade, a bipolar plasmakinetic vaporization system with a novel button-like electrode has emerged and was described as a safe and effective option for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Here, we present a modified technique named transurethral vapor enucleation of the prostate (TVEP). Materials and Methods: We provide a video that shows the main steps of this procedure. Vapo-enucleation of the prostate is performed by moving the button electrode circumferentially from the verumontanum toward the bladder neck, and the enucleated prostate tissue is retrieved by the morcellator. Three patients who were treated by TVEP in our institution between 2013 and 2014 were retrospectively evaluated to assess its feasibility. The postvoiding residual urine (PVRU) and maximum flow rate (Qmax) were measured preoperatively and 3 months postoperatively. Results: The mean operative time was 85 min. Nearly no vascular bleeding was observed during the operation. The average Qmax improved from 7.6 to 18.3 mL/s, and the PVRU decreased from 152 to 17 mL. Conclusions: TVEP seems to represent a promising endoscopic treatment alternative for BPH. No competing financial interests exist. Runtime of video: 7 mins 51 secs05/2015; DOI:10.1089/vid.2015.0010

ABSTRACT: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, endogenous RNAs that play important gene-regulatory roles by binding to the imperfectly complementary sequences at the 3'-UTR of mRNAs and directing their gene expression. Here, we first discovered that miR-576-3p was down-regulated in human bladder cancer cell lines compared with the non-malignant cell line. To better characterize the role of miR-576-3p in bladder cancer cells, we over-expressed or down-regulated miR-576-3p in bladder cancer cells by transfecting with chemically synthesized mimic or inhibitor. The overexpression of miR-576-3p remarkably inhibited cell proliferation via G1-phase arrest, and decreased both mRNA and protein levels of cyclin D1 which played a key role in G1/S phase transition. The knock-down of miR-576-3p significantly promoted the proliferation of bladder cancer cells by accelerating the progression of cell cycle and increased the expression of cyclin D1. Moreover, the dual-luciferase reporter assays indicated that miR-576-3p could directly target cyclin D1 through binding its 3'-UTR. All the results demonstrated that miR-576-3p might be a novel suppressor of bladder cancer cell proliferation through targeting cyclin D1.Molecules and Cells 12/2014; 38(2).

Article: Apigenin inhibits migration and invasion via modulation of epithelial mesenchymal transition in prostate cancer[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The mortality rate associated with prostate cancer is mainly due to metastases rather than primary organ‑confined disease. Decreasing the incidence of metastasis is important in treating prostate cancer. 4',5,7‑trihydroxyflavone (apigenin) has been demonstrated to be effective in inhibiting several types of cancer. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect and mechanism of apigenin on the movement of prostate cancer cells. In the present study, DU145 cells were treated with varying concentrations of apigenin for different time periods. Cell viability was evaluated using an MTT assay. Cell motility and invasiveness were assayed using wound healing assays and a Matrigel migration and invasion assay. Flow cytometric and western blot analyses were performed to examine the cell cycle and signaling pathways. The results demonstrated that apigenin suppressed the proliferation and inhibited the migration and invasive potential of the DU145 prostate cancer cells in a dose‑ and time‑dependent manner, which was associated with epithelial mesenchymal transition. These findings suggested that apigenin may be effective in treating human prostate cancer.Molecular Medicine Reports 10/2014; DOI:10.3892/mmr.2014.2801 · 1.48 Impact Factor
Article: MicroRNA-320c inhibits tumorous behaviors of bladder cancer by targeting Cyclin-dependent kinase 6[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Background Increasing evidence has suggested that dysregulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) could contribute to human disease including cancer. Previous miRNA microarray analysis illustrated that miR-320c is down-regulated in various cancers. However, the roles of miR-320c in human bladder cancer have not been well elucidated. Therefore, this study was performed to investigate the biological functions and molecular mechanisms of miR-320c in human bladder cancer cell lines, discussing whether it could be a therapeutic biomarker of bladder cancer in the future.Methods Two human bladder cancer cell lines and samples from thirteen patients with bladder cancer were analyzed for the expression of miR-320c by quantitative RT-PCR. Over-expression of miR-320c was established by transfecting mimics into T24 and UM-UC-3. Cell proliferation and cell cycle were assessed by cell viability assay, flow cytometry and colony formation assay. Cell motility ability was evaluated by transwell assay. The target gene of miR-320c was determined by luciferase assay, quantitative RT-PCR and western blot. The regulation of cell cycle and mobility by miR-320c was analyzed by western blot.ResultsWe observed that miR-320c was down-regulated in human bladder cancer tissues and bladder cancer cell lines T24 and UM-UC-3. Over-expression of miR-320c could induce G1 phase arrest in UM-UC-3 and T24 cells, and subsequently inhibited cell growth. We also indentified miR-320c could impair UM-UC-3 and T24 cell motility. In addition, we identified CDK6, a cell cycle regulator, as a novel target of miR-320c. Moreover, we demonstrated miR-320c could induce bladder cancer cell cycle arrest and mobility via regulating CDK6. We also observed that inhibition of miR-320c or restoration of CDK6 in miR-320c-over-expressed bladder cancer cells partly reversed the suppressive effects of miR-320c.ConclusionsmiR-320c could inhibit the proliferation, migration and invasion of bladder cancer cells via regulating CDK6. Our study revealed that miR-320c could be a therapeutic biomarker of bladder cancer in the future.Journal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research 09/2014; 33(1):69.

Article: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of the Effect of Alcohol Intake on the Risk of Urolithiasis Including Dose-Response Relationship[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Objective: We conducted a meta-analysis to quantitatively evaluate the correlation between alcohol consumption and the risk of urolithiasis by summarizing the results of published case-control and cohort studies and the potential dose-response association. Methods: A systematic literature search of articles up to February 2014 was conducted via PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Scopus, EMBASE, the Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure databases, and the references of the retrieved articles. Fixed- or random-effect models were used to summarize the estimates of odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (95% CI) for the highest versus the lowest consumption of alcohol. A dose-response meta-analysis was also conducted. Results: The pooled OR estimates indicated that alcohol consumption was associated with a decreased risk of urolithiasis (OR = 0.683, 95% CI 0.577-0.808). In addition, the dose-response meta-analysis indicated that the rate of urolithiasis decreased by 10% for a 10 g/day increase in alcohol intake (OR = 0.898, 95% CI 0.851-0.948). No evidence of publication bias was found by Begg's or Egger's test (p = 0.130, p = 0.130, respectively). Conclusion: Our meta-analysis indicated that alcohol intake is associated with a decreased risk of urolithiasis. © 2014 S. Karger AG, Basel.Urologia Internationalis 07/2014; 94(2).

ABSTRACT: Hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) is a rare disorder that is characterized by hypereosinophilia and organ damage, caused by the infiltration of eosinophils. In rare cases, the urinary bladder may also be involved. The current case report presented a 56-year-old male with gross hematuria and hypereosinophilia. The diagnosis of eosinophilic cystitis associated HES was established. Oral prednisone with a slow tapering regimen was administered as the primary treatment for the patient, which achieved partial hematological remission and complete relief of cystitis during a six-month follow-up period. Although eosinophilic cystitis is not commonly the primary manifestation of HES, eosinophilic cystitis should be taken into consideration following the onset of urinary symptoms in patients with HES.Experimental and therapeutic medicine 07/2014; 8(1):49-51.

Article: Downregulation of microRNA-182-5p contributes to renal cell carcinoma proliferation via activating the AKT/FOXO3a signaling pathway[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Background Emerging evidence has suggested that dysregulation of miR-182-5p may contribute to tumor development and progression in several types of human cancers. However, its role in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is still unknown. Methods Quantitative RT-PCR was used to quantify miR-182-5p expression in RCC clinical tissues. Bisulfite sequencing PCR was used for DNA methylation analysis. The CCK-8, colony formation, flow cytometry, and a xenograft model were performed. Immunohistochemistry was conducted using the peroxidase and DAB methods. A miR-182-5p target was determined by luciferase reporter assays, quantitative RT-PCR, and Western blotting. Results miR-182-5p is frequently down-regulated in human RCC tissues. Epigenetic modulation may be involved in the regulation of miR-182-5p expression. Enforced expression of miR-182-5p in RCC cells significantly inhibited the proliferation and tumorigenicity in vitro and in vivo. Additionally, overexpression of miR-182-5p induced G1-phase arrest via inhibition of AKT/FOXO3a signaling. Moreover, FLOT1 was confirmed as a target of miR-182-5p. Silencing FLOT1 by small interfering RNAs phenocopied the effects of miR-182-5p overexpression, whereas restoration of FLOT1 in miR-182-5p -overexpressed RCC cells partly reversed the suppressive effects of miR-182-5p. Conclusions These findings highlight an important role for miR-182-5p in the pathogenesis of RCC, and restoration of miR-182-5p could be considered as a potential therapeutic strategy for RCC therapy.Molecular Cancer 05/2014; 13(1):109.

Article: Severe hematuria after transurethral electrocoagulation in a patient with an arteriovesical fistula[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Arteriovesical fistulas are extremely rare. Only eleven cases were previously reported in the literature. They can occur iatrogenically, traumatically or spontaneously. We report an unusual case of a 62-year-old woman with arteriovesical fistula that developed fatal hematuria after transurethral electrocoagulation. Computed tomography (CT) and selective angiography revealed a pseudoaneurysm of the right superior vesical artery with arteriovesical fistula formation, which was managed by transarterial embolization. Contrast enhanced CT or CT angiography should be performed when a pulsatile hemorrhage is revealed during cystoscopy. Therapeutic vesical arterial embolization should be considered as a safe and effective procedure for arteriovesical fistulas. Transurethral electrocoagulation may cause severe hematuria for pulsatile bladder bleeding in patients with pelvic vascular malformation.BMC Urology 12/2013; 13(1):68.

ABSTRACT: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are non-protein-coding sequences that play a crucial role in tumorigenesis by negatively regulating gene expression. Here, we found that miR-490-5p is down-regulated in human bladder cancer tissue and cell lines compared to normal adjacent tissue and a non-malignant cell line. To better characterize the function of miR-490-5p in bladder cancer, we over-expressed miR-490-5p in bladder cancer cell lines with chemically synthesized mimics. Enforced expression of miR-490-5p in bladder cancer cells significantly inhibited the cell proliferation via G1-phase arrest. Further studies found the decreased c-Fos expression at both mRNA and protein levels and Luciferase reporter assays demonstrated that c-Fos is a direct target of miR-490-5p in bladder cancer. These findings indicate miR-490-5p to be a novel tumor suppressor of bladder cancer cell proliferation through targeting c-Fos.Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications 11/2013; 441(4).

Article: MicroRNA-124-3p inhibits cell migration and invasion in bladder cancer cells by targeting ROCK1[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Increasing evidence has suggested that dysregulation of certain microRNAs (miRNAs) may contribute to human disease including carcinogenesis and tumor metastasis in human. miR-124-3p is down-regulated in various cancers, and modulates proliferation and aggressiveness of cancer cells. However, the roles of miR-124-3p in human bladder cancer are elusive. Thus, this study was conducted to investigate the biological functions and its molecular mechanisms of miR-124-3p in human bladder cancer cell lines, discussing whether it has a potential to be a therapeutic biomarker of bladder cancer. Three human bladder cancer cell lines and samples from ten patients with bladder cancer were analyzed for the expression of miR-124-3p by quantitative RT--PCR. Exogenetic overexpression of miR-124-3p was established by transfecting mimics into T24, UM-UC-3 and J82 cells, after that cell proliferation and cell cycle were assessed by MTT assay, flow cytometry and Colony-forming assay. Cell motility and invasion ability were evaluated by wound healing assay and transwell assay. Tissue microarray, and immunohistochemistry with antibodies against ROCK1, MMP2 and MMP9 was performed using the peroxidase and DAB methods. The target gene of miR-124-3p was determined by luciferase assays, quantitative RT--PCR and western blot. The regulation of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition by miR-124-3p was analyzed by western blot. miR-124-3p is frequently down-regulated in bladder cancer both in three bladder cancer cell lines, T24, UM-UC-3, J82 and clinical samples. Overexpression of miR-124-3p induced G1-phase arrest in T24, UM-UC-3 and J82 cell lines and suppressed cell growth in colony-forming assay. miR-124-3p significantly repressed the capability of migration and invasion of bladder cancer cells. In addition, ROCK1 was identified as a new target of miR-124-3p. ROCK1, MMP2, MMP9 were up-regulated in bladder cancer tissues. Furthermore, we demonstrated miR-124-3p could inhibit bladder cancer cell epithelial mesenchymal transfer, and regulated the expression of c-Met, MMP2, MMP9. miR-124-3p can repress the migration and invasion of bladder cancer cells via regulating ROCK1. Our data indicate that miR-124-3p could be a tumor suppressor and may have a potential to be a diagnostics or predictive biomarker in bladder cancer.Journal of Translational Medicine 11/2013; 11(1):276.

ABSTRACT: Previous cohort and case-control studies on the association between cruciferous vegetables consumption and risk of renal cell carcinoma have illustrated conflicting results so far. To demonstrate the potential association between them, a meta-analysis was performed. Eligible studies were retrieved via both computerized searches and review of references. The summary relative risks (RRs) with 95% confidence interval (CI) for the highest vs. the lowest consumption of cruciferous vegetables were calculated. Heterogeneity and publication bias were also evaluated. Stratified analyses were performed as well. Three cohort and 7 case-control studies were included. A significantly decreased risk with renal cell carcinoma was observed in overall cruciferous vegetables consumption group (RR = 0.73; 95% CI, 0.63-0.83) and subgroup of case-control studies (RR = 0.69; 95% CI, 0.60-0.78), but not in cohort studies (RR = 0.96; 95% CI, 0.71-1.21). No heterogeneity and publication bias were detected across studies. Our findings supported that cruciferous vegetables consumption was related to the decreased risk of renal cell carcinoma. Because of the limited number of studies, further well-designed prospective studies and researches need to be conducted to better clarify the protective effect of cruciferous vegetables on renal cell carcinoma and potential mechanism.Nutrition and Cancer 07/2013; 65(5):668-76.

ABSTRACT: It is increasingly clear that microRNAs play a crucial role in tumorigenesis. Recently, emerging evidence suggested that miR-26a is aberrantly expressed in tumor tissues. In our study, frequent down-regulation of miR-26a was observed in 10 human bladder cancer tissues. Forced expression of miR-26a in the bladder cancer cell line T24 inhibited cell proliferation and impaired cell motility. HMGA1, a gene that modulates cell cycle transition and cell motility, was verified as a novel target of miR-26a in bladder cancer. These findings indicate an important role for miR-26a in the molecular etiology of bladder cancer and implicate the potential application of miR-26a in bladder cancer therapy.FEBS letters 06/2013; 587(15).

Article: Apigenin promotes apoptosis, inhibits invasion and induces cell cycle arrest of T24 human bladder cancer cells.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Apigenin (4',5,7-trihydroxyflavone) was recently shown effective in inhibiting several cancers. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect and mechanism of apigenin in the human bladder cancer cell line T24 for the first time. METHODS: T24 cells were treated with varying concentrations and time of apigenin. Cell viability was evaluated by MTT assay. Cell motility and invasiveness were assayed by Matrigel migration and invasion assay. Flow cytometry and western blot analysis were used to detect cell apoptosis, cell cycle and signaling pathway. RESULTS: The results demonstrated that apigenin suppressed proliferation and inhibited the migration and invasion potential of T24 bladder cancer cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner, which was associated with induced G2/M Phase cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. The mechanism of action is like to involve PI3K/Akt pathway and Bcl-2 family proteins. Apigenin increased caspase-3 activity and PARP cleavage, indicating that apigenin induced apoptosis in a caspase-dependent way. CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that apigenin may be an effective way for treating human bladder cancer.Cancer Cell International 06/2013; 13(1):54.

Article: MicroRNA-409-3p inhibits migration and invasion of bladder cancer cells via targeting c-Met[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: There is increasing evidence suggesting that dysregulation of certain microRNAs (miRNAs) may contribute to tumor progression and metastasis. Previous studies have shown that miR-409-3p is dysregulated in some malignancies, but its role in bladder cancer is still unknown. Here, we find that miR-409-3p is down-regulated in human bladder cancer tissues and cell lines. Enforced expression of miR-409-3p in bladder cancer cells significantly reduced their migration and invasion without affecting cell viability. Bioinformatics analysis identified the pro-metastatic gene c-Met as a potential miR-409-3p target. Further studies indicated that miR-409-3p suppressed the expression of c-Met by binding to its 3'-untranslated region. Silencing of c-Met by small interfering RNAs phenocopied the effects of miR-409-3p overexpression, whereas restoration of c-Met in bladder cancer cells bladder cancer cells overexpressing miR-409-3p, partially reversed the suppressive effects of miR-409-3p. We further showed that MMP2 and MMP9 may be downstream effector proteins of miR-409-3p. These findings indicate that miR-409-3p could be a potential tumor suppressor in bladder cancer.Moleculer Cells 05/2013; 36(1). DOI:10.1007/s10059-013-0044-7 · 2.24 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: microRNAs (miRNAs), small non-coding RNAs, have emerged as key regulators of a large number of genes. The present study aimed to explore novel biological functions of miR-330 in the human prostate cancer cell lines DU145 and PC3. We confirmed that miR-330 was downregulated and inversely correlated with specificity protein 1 (Sp1) expression. Overexpression of miR-330 by transfection of a chemically synthesized miR-330 mimic induced a reduction in expression levels of the Sp1 protein, accompanied by significant suppression of cellular migration and invasion capability. In addition, the Sp1-knockdown experiments presented similar phenomena. Finally, the luciferase reporter assay validated Sp1 as the direct target of miR-330. These findings indicate that miR-330 acts as an anti-metastatic miRNA in prostate cancer.Oncology Reports 05/2013; 30(1). DOI:10.3892/or.2013.2452 · 2.19 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that play regulatory roles by repressing translation or cleaving RNA transcripts. Here, we report that the expression of microRNA-101 (miR-101) is down-regulated in human bladder cancer tissue versus normal adjacent tissue. To better characterize the role of miR-101 in bladder cancer, we conducted a gain-of-function analysis by transfecting the bladder cancer cell line T24 with chemically synthesized miR-101 mimics. We found that miR-101 directly targets c-Met via its 3'-UTR. Specifically, forced expression of miR-101 decreased c-Met expression at both mRNA and protein levels, consequently inhibiting T24 cell migration and invasion in a c-Met-dependent manner. In conclusion, we have shown miR-101 to be a novel suppressor of T24 cell migration and invasion through its negative regulation of c-Met.Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications 04/2013; DOI:10.1016/j.bbrc.2013.04.042 · 2.28 Impact Factor
Article: Quantitative assessment of the associations between XRCC1 polymorphisms and bladder cancer risk[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: The XRCC1 polymorphisms have been implicated in bladder cancer risk, but individually published studies show inconsistent results. The aim of our study was to clarify the effects of XRCC1 variants on bladder cancer risk. METHODS: A systematic literature search up to September 13, 2012 was carried out in PubMed, EMBASE and Wanfang databases, and the references of retrieved articles were screened. Crude odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals were used to assess the associations between XRCC1 Arg194Trp and Arg399Gln polymorphisms and bladder cancer risk. Heterogeneity and publication bias were also evaluated. RESULTS: A total of 14 and 18 studies were eligible for meta-analyses of Arg194Trp and Arg399Gln, respectively. Regrouping was adopted in accordance with the most probable appropriate genetic models. No obvious heterogeneity between studies was found. For overall bladder cancer, the pooled odds ratios for Arg194Trp and Arg399Gln were 1.69 (95% confidence interval: 1.25 to 2.28; P = 0.001) and 1.10 (95% confidence interval: 1.03 to 1.19; P = 0.008), respectively. After excluding the studies that were not in Hardy--Weinberg equilibrium, the estimated pooled odds ratio still did not change at all. CONCLUSIONS: The meta-analysis results suggest that XRCC1 Arg194Trp and Arg399Gln polymorphisms may be associated with elevated bladder cancer risk.World Journal of Surgical Oncology 03/2013; 11(1):58.

ABSTRACT: Diabetes is associated with increased risk of cancer at several sites, but its association with risk of bladder cancer is still controversial. We examined this association by conducting a systematic review and meta-analysis of cohort studies. Studies were identified by searching PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, Web of Science, Cochrane register, and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) databases through April 29, 2012. Summary relative risks (SRRs) with their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using a random-effects model. A total of fifteen cohort studies were included in this meta-analysis. Analysis of all studies showed that diabetes was associated with a borderline statistically significant increased risk of bladder cancer (RR 1.11, 95% CI 1.00-1.23; p<0.001 for heterogeneity; I = 84%). When restricting the analysis to studies that had adjusted for cigarette smoking (n = 6) or more than three confounders (n = 7), the RRs were 1.32 (95% CI 1.18-1.49) and 1.20 (95% CI 1.02-1.42), respectively. There was no significant publication bias (p = 0.62 for Egger's regression asymmetry test). Our findings support that diabetes was associated with an increased risk of bladder cancer. More future studies are warranted to get a better understanding of the association and to provide convincing evidence for clinical practice in bladder cancer prevention.PLoS ONE 03/2013; 8(3):e58079.

More flooding hits West Cumbria
Last updated at 12:07, Friday, 23 November 2012
Sand bags and water pumps were out in West Cumbria yesterday as heavy rain brought flash floods to homes and businesses.
A fire service pumping truck was called out to Fernleigh Close, Seaton, as water from fields began to flood a house.
The water began running off the fields around 11am and by noon it was rising in the road.
Sand bags were put out to stop the water getting further than the garage.
The house owner, who did not want to be named, said it had been hit by flash flooding three times this year despite a drain being put in front of the garage last year to stop it.
Firefighter Kevin Vannet estimated that the water was 10 inches high in the road.
The water coming off the field ran down Doreen Dustin's drive.
The 67-year-old said: "It's like a river in that field. If it happens at night or if I go away on holiday I start to worry but there's nothing we can do about it."
Flimby Papershop lost half its trade for the day as standing water across the A596 stopped all but the hardiest of customers getting to its door.
Owner Nathan Newman said the water was so high that every time a large vehicle went past the spray hit his first-floor windows.
Water leaked underneath the front door because of the pressure, he added.
Mr Newman said the problem arose every time there was heavy rain.
Connect Roads, which maintains the main Workington to Maryport road on behalf of Cumbria County Council, went out to clear the drains but Mr Newman said the water soon rose again.
He added: "They need to fix the road. It needs a proper gully to relieve the water or the drainage needs to be sorted out because it can't handle the volume."
Standing water also caused problems for drivers across the area, including Netherhall Corner and Netherhall Road in Maryport, the A594 Maryport to Dearham road, the Maryport to Broughton Moor road, below the old railway bridge at Seaton and near Chapel Brow roundabout towards Great Clifton and towards Bridgefoot.

Article: A Family of Thiazolium Salt Derived N‐Heterocyclic Carbenes (NHCs) for Organocatalysis: Synthesis, Investigation and Application in Cross‐Benzoin Condensation[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A family of thiazolium salt derived N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) bearing sterically demanding aryl substituents on the nitrogen and with varying backbone substitution patterns have been synthesized. Investigation of the catalytic activity of these NHCs in a number of benzoin-type coupling reactions revealed markedly different levels of reactivity and selectivity. To elucidate the underlying factors leading to differences in reactivity, a study of the electronic and steric properties of these NHC catalysts was conducted. By using the best catalyst in this study, the intermolecular cross-benzoin condensation reaction was explored in more detail.European Journal of Organic Chemistry 10/2011; 2011(28):5475 - 5484.

Systematic variation of the catalyst structure revealed an N-mesitylthiazolylidene annulated with a seven-membered ring to be especially reactive. This NHC enables a unique C-C bond-forming reaction to afford substituted chroman-4-ones in moderate to excellent yields, even ones containing all-carbon quaternary centers.Journal of the American Chemical Society 10/2009; 131(40):14190-1.

ABSTRACT: A versatile and modular one-pot method for the preparation of differently substituted symmetrical and unsymmetrical imidazolium salts is reported, and 19 examples are given. In the key step, readily available formamidines and alpha-halo ketones are coupled to give imidazolinium salts 3, followed by imidazolium salt formation by acylation-induced elimination. For many substitution patterns of the imidazolium salt products, this efficient strategy compares favorably with well-known processes in terms of yield, ease of synthesis, and robustness.Organic Letters 02/2009; 11(4):1019-22.

ABSTRACT: A large range of benzoins was successfully applied as C-nucleophiles in the palladium-catalyzed allylic alkylation with several allyl acetates, resulting in functionalized tertiary homoallylic alcohols. A number of unsymmetrical benzoins can be coupled with high levels of regio- and chemoselectivity. Finally, the challenging compatibility of free N-heterocyclic carbenes with a palladium catalyst has been utilized in a number of metal- and organocatalyzed three-component coupling reactions.Organic Letters 10/2008; 10(19):4243-6.

ABSTRACT: N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHC) have become an important class of organocatalysts and class of ligands for transition-metal catalysis. In organocatalyzed umpolung reactions, thiazolium salt-derived NHC have been used successfully for decades. Even so, during recent years there has been an increased interest in NHC-catalyzed transformations and many new reactions have been developed. This article focuses on the use of NHC in the conjugate umpolung of alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes.

by Stacey F. on 03/14/2015
We had a mystery plumbing leak in our home near St. Paul, MN. The water mitigation expert from our insurance company recommended we call Roto Rooter. Our plumber was very friendly, professional and informative. He said that finding the source of mystery leaks was actually his favorite thing to do. We had a good outcome and were very relieved that we called Roto Rooter.

Run, run as fast as you can to another plumbing company. The front office lady (Norma) is a joke, worst customer service I have ever dealt with. We are a large company and they wanted us to fax over all the information before they would even discuss with us the work or when they could arrive. Then when we did provide the fax, they called the retailer to first verify what the job was and then called us to decline because they don't do that type of work. When I caught her in a lie, she back tracked to make them look good. Who does this in a business and how can they stay in business. I am reporting them to Roto Rooter Corporate and I hope they close this place down. Find someone else, read the customer reviews, take them seriously.

I found them in the phone book. We were having a drain problem in a new bathroom and my normal plumber said that he believed the drain was plugged under the basement floor and he did not have the equipment to unplug it. He suggested I call a company that performed drain cleaning. Mr. Rooter's rep told me on the phone that if they could not help me it would be a $75.00 call out fee and that would be it. They came and almost $400.00 later we were told we still could not use the bathroom or kitchen drains until someone came back at another time and that it would cost an additional $800.00. After much discussion that price came down to another $400.00. We were told that they would put a camera in our drain and record it on DVD but they would not give us a copy unless we paid for it but that they would have it on file. The next day I called Roto Rooter who came out and did everything that Mr. Rooter had done for the original $400.00 plus everything they said they were going to do for another $400.00+ for a TOTAL of $265.00. It took them less than 1 1/2 hrs. No problems since. I called Mr. Rooter and asked for part of my money back. They kept saying they would call me back by a certain date and time and they did not. After they figured out that I wasn't going away they finally offered to send a supervisor to look at the drain in my basement but they would not promise me any money back. When I asked why they couldn't look at the DVD that the technician said he would be recording for Mr. Rooter's record they couldn't give me an answer. They said they just had to get back into the house and look again. After much thought and talking to others who had used Mr. Rooter and the horror stories they told me I decided I didn't trust them in my house for any reason. I firmly believed from dealing with them thus far that they could damage my drains and then I would have to pay someone else to fix yet another job they messed up. If you use Mr. Rooter you will be sorry.

Not even one star, but it will not let me go further if I don't rate, so here is a freebie. These people have no people skills and no costumer service at all. Beware, they will waste your time and have no problem with it. I called for regarding a septic tank, promptly the tech came out, was shown where the tank was because he was digging in the wrong place and asked to please not step all over the plants if it was not necessary. I left him out there and told him that if he needed anything to please let me know. I left the tech, Richard, out in the front yard pocking with his probe, the next thing I hear is the truck taking off. I thought he was going to turn it around but I was mistaken, he took off without saying a word. I called the company and this woman answered the phone and said that yes he had left because he did not want to step on any plants and that he would not be coming back, I asked why he could not have rung the door bell and explained were he would have to dig and let me decide if I wanted him to dig or not, instead he took off. When I explained this to the woman she was not in the least interested in been helpful, especially when I stated that I needed the job done no matter what. Her solution was not to send the tech back but to leave me with my problem until Monday when the owner himself would come out providing I do my own digging. Seriously? do really think for one minute I would want your services ever again? in this economy, costumer service is key! I do not recommend these people at all, there is no telling what kind of work they do if this how the start a call.

Be aware of this company. They will get your call professionally but the service end here. I have made an appointment at 1 PM Saturday and got delayed every two hours when I call back to Sunday and Monday. They promised to have someone at my house first thing in the morning on Sunday and Monday. It is all about empty promise since the guy taking your call will not be the on working for you. Try to find your local guys instead.
Roto-Rooter started in 1935. I...by famhost on 07/30/2012
Roto-Rooter started in 1935. In the beginning, it was a franchise system. Now it is about 50% independently owned franchise and 50% Corporately owned. I've been involved with the Roto-Rooter family since 1960 and consider many of the franchises as well as corporate folks to be my very dear friends. Many times, with my parents and siblings, we've worked through the night to help people. Sometimes without pay because we care. We're even called often by competitors who don't have the skill or equipment to do a particular job. Roto-Rooter is the nation's largest plumbing company collectively. However, half of the organization is locally owned by families who are deeply involved in the community for generations. It is frustrating to read reviews from people who got bad service. Unfortunately there isn't a way to know where the reviews are coming from and most of the families are just hard working people who don't have time to surf the net and do a lot of hype. We would not have stayed in business for over 75 years if we didn't do a good job and treat our customers well. Please call us and talk to us. We do care.

Horrible HORRIBLE service. RALEIGH, NC. They spin lies like no other. Call AnL Plumbing, they are decent people. This place lied like a cheap rug. I watched them take a video of my pipes and supposedly their DVD burner was not functioning at the time, I would get a copy the next day. Right, Steve. I leave him 6 voicemails with no response. I then talk to Josh who apologizes and says a copy is in the mail. A week later, no DVD. Evelyn apologizes, and says she personally stamped a copy and it was in the mail. A week and a half after that I get an email confirmation for an appointment to come out and video my pipes. That is not a copy of the original video?!! And Ken, the GM, tells me sorry there is no video for them to copy he doesn't know what has happened. Really, all the way to the top they are trained to plead the fifth and mislead when ever possible. Don't waste your money here, go anywhere else.
