NatD promotes glioblastoma progression through epigenetic activation of FGFR4 signalling
Abstract N-terminal acetyltransferase D (NatD) acetylates histones H4 and H2A at serine 1 and has been implicated in oncogenesis, yet its role in glioblastoma (GBM) remains unexplored. Here, we show that NatD expression is significantly elevated in GBM at both transcript and prot...

Some characterizations of rings whose regular ideals are G -projective
Abstract In this paper, regular modules are introduced to characterize rings whose regular ideals are G -projective, called G -Dedekind rings, i.e., R is a G -Dedekind ring if and only if any regular R -module is a G -projective R -module; if and only if R / aR is a QF ring for a...
