Abstract Background The deregulated alternative splicing of key glycolytic opi chill em with kindness enzyme, Pyruvate Kinase muscle isoenzyme (PKM) is implicated in metabolic adaptation of cancer cells.The splicing switch from normal PKM1 to cancer-specific PKM2 isoform allows the cancer cells to meet their energy and biosynthetic demands, thereby
The concept of thermal rectification was put forward decades ago.It is a phenomenon in which the heat flux along one direction varies as the sign of temperature gradient changes.In bulk materials, thermal rectification has been realized at contact interfaces by manufacturing asymmetric effective contact areas, electron transport, temperature depend
