Journal ArticleDOI
Solar energy: Potential and future prospects
TL;DR: In this paper, the merits and demerits of solar energy technologies are both discussed and a number of technical problems affecting renewable energy research are also highlighted, along with beneficial interactions between regulation policy frameworks and their future prospects.
Journal ArticleDOI
‘Green’ synthesis of metals and their oxide nanoparticles: applications for environmental remediation
TL;DR: This review summarized the fundamental processes and mechanisms of “green” synthesis approaches, especially for metal and metal oxide nanoparticles using natural extracts and explored the role of biological components, essential phytochemicals (e.g., flavonoids, alkaloids, terpenoids, amides, and aldehydes) as reducing agents and solvent systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is suggested that the loss of multifunctional miR-122 contributes to the malignant phenotype of HCC cells, and mi R-122 mimetic alone or in combination with anticancer drugs can be a promising therapeutic regimen against liver cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
IL-6 promotes head and neck tumor metastasis by inducing epithelial-mesenchymal transition via the JAK-STAT3-SNAIL signaling pathway
TL;DR: A novel function for IL-6 is shown in mediating EMT in head and neck tumor cells and increasing their metastatic potential in a SCID mouse xenograft model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metal organic frameworks for sensing applications
TL;DR: This review focuses on recent progress achieved in MOF research with respect to general sensing principles and analytical performance, and discusses future industrial applications in sensing that are of immense research interest.
