Correction: The <i>hMLH1</i> −93G>A Polymorphism and Risk of Ovarian Cancer in the Chinese Population

Correction: The hMLH1 −93G>A Polymorphism and Risk of Ovarian Cancer in the Chinese Populatio

The effect of the <i>hMLH1</i> -93G>A genotype on <i>hMLH1</i> expression.

<p><b>(A)</b> Schematic of reporter gene constructs containing the core promoter region of <i>hMSH1</i> (a 282-bp fragment from -299 to -17) with the G or A allele at the -93 polymorphic site (upper). The luciferase expression of two constructs (pGL3-93G and pGL3-93A) in 293T and SK-OV-3 cells cotransfected with pRL-SV40 to standardize the transfection efficiency is shown (lower). Each group has six replicates, and the transfection experiments were repeated three times. The data are the means ± standard error of the mean. The asterisk indicates a significant change. (<b>B</b>) <i>hMLH1</i> expression level in twenty-eight ovarian cancer tissues with different -93G>A genotypes (6 -93GG, 10 -93AG and 12 -93AA); the data are the means ± standard error of the mean. The expression level of the -93GG and -93AG genotypes were significantly higher than that of the AA genotype (<i>P</i><0.001).</p

Color and Texture Morphing with Colloids on Multilayered Surfaces

Dynamic morphing of marine species to match with environment changes in color and texture is an advanced means for surviving, self-defense, and reproduction. Here we use colloids that are placed inside a multilayered structure to demonstrate color and texture morphing. The multilayer is composed of a thermal insulating base layer, a light absorbing mid layer, and a liquid top layer. When external light of moderate intensity (∼0.2 W cm^–2) strikes the structure, colloids inside the liquid layer will be assembled to locations with an optimal absorption. When this system is exposed to continuous laser pulses, more than 18 000 times of reversible responses are recorded, where the system requests 20 ms to start the response and another 160 ms to complete. The flexibility of our concept further allows the system to be built on a variety of light-absorbing substrates, including dyed paper, gold thin film, and amorphous silicon, with the top layer even a solid
