BackgroundAbnormal gene expression due to the dysregulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) often occurred in the initiation or progression of cancers.In this attempt, we investigate whether miR-125b regulates biological behaviors of cervical cancer caused by HPV16 through TAZ.MethodsThrough the application of bioinformatics analysis techniques, differential

Biocrusts are ecosystem engineers in drylands and structure the landscape through their ecohydrological effects.They regulate soil infiltration and evaporation but also surface water redistribution, providing important resources for vascular vegetation.Spatially-explicit ecohydrological models are useful tools to explore such ecohydrological mechan
