description: Correlation for $p_T$ cross section between 2.4 < |y| < 2.8 and 1.6 < |y| < 2.0
description: CERN-LHC. This paper presents for the first time a precise measurement of the production properties of the $Z$ boson in the full phase space of the decay leptons. This is in contrast to the many previous precise unfolded measurements performed in the fiducial phase space of the decay leptons. The measurement is obtained from proton--proton collision data collected by the ATLAS experiment in 2012 at $\sqrt{s} = 8$ TeV at the LHC and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.2 fb$^{-1}$. The results, based on a total of 15.3 million $Z$-boson decays to electron and muon pairs, extend and improve a previous measurement of the full set of angular coefficients describing $Z$-boson decay. The double-differential cross-section distributions in $Z$-boson transverse momentum $p_T$ and rapidity $y$ are measured in the pole region, defined as $80 < m_{\ell\ell} < 100$ GeV, over the range $|y| < 3.6$. The total uncertainty of the normalised cross-section measurements in the peak region of the $p_T$ distribution is dominated by statistical uncertainties over the full range and increases as a function of rapidity from $0.5-1.0$% for $|y| < 2.0$ to $2-7$% at higher rapidities. The results for the rapidity-dependent transverse momentum distributions are compared to state-of-the-art QCD predictions, which combine in the best cases approximate N$^4$LL resummation with N$^3$LO fixed-order perturbative calculations. The differential rapidity distributions integrated over $p_T$ are even more precise, with accuracies from $0.2-0.3$% for $|y| < 2.0$ to $0.4-0.9$% at higher rapidities, and are compared to fixed-order QCD predictions using the most recent parton distribution functions. The agreement between data and predictions is quite good in most cases.

Microtus richardsoni DeKay 1842, Zoology of New York, Part I, Mammals: 91.
Type Locality: Canada, Alberta Prov., vicinity of Jasper House (as interpreted by Bailey, 1900:60).
Vernacular Names: North American Water Vole.
Synonyms: Microtus arvicoloides (Rhoads 1894); Microtus myllodontus Rasmussen and Chamberlain 1959; Microtus principalis Rhoads 1895.
Distribution: Wet subalpine and alpine meadows of Rocky Mountains, from S British Columbia and Alberta, Canada, to W Wyoming and C Utah, USA; and of Cascade Mountains, from SW British Columbia south through WC Oregon.
Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).
Discussion: Senior synonym of the type (= arvicoloides) of Aulacomys. In early classifications (Bailey, 1900; Miller, 1896), richardsoni was placed with Old World water voles in the subgenus Arvicola (including Aulacomys) of Microtus, a relationship reaffirmed by Hooper and Hart (1962) and followed by others, with Arvicola employed either at the subgeneric (Hall, 1981) or generic level (Jones et al., 1975). Substantial evidence argues the retention of richardsoni within Microtus and the restriction of Arvicola to Old World forms (Carleton, 1981; Conroy and Cook, 2000 a; Gromov and Polyakov, 1977; Hinton, 1926 a; Jannett, 1997; Koenigswald, 1980; Repenning, 1980; Zagorodnyuk, 1990). Hoffmann and Koeppel (1985) further suggested the autochthonous origin of M. richardsoni in North America from an early stock that also gave rise to M. xanthognathus, an idea consistent with the biochemical similarity of richardsoni to certain New World Microtus (Nadler et al., 1978) and with Zagorodnyuk's (1990) usage of the subgenus Aulacomys; cytochrome b sequence data, although also supporting a North American origin, disclose nearest kinship to M. (Pitymys) pinetorum (Conroy and Cook, 2000 a). See Ludwig (1984, Mammalian Species, 223).

description: Stargardt macular degeneration is an inherited retinal disease caused by mutations in the ATP-binding cassette subfamily A member 4 (ABCA4) gene. Here, we characterized the complement expression profile in ABCA4(-/-) retinae and aligned these findings with morphological markers of retinal degeneration. We found an enhanced retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) autofluorescence, cell loss in the inner retina of ABCA4(-/-) mice and demonstrated age-related differences in complement expression in various retinal cell types irrespective of the genotype. However, 24-week-old ABCA4(-/-) mice expressed more c3 in the RPE and fewer cfi transcripts in the microglia compared to controls. At the protein level, the decrease of complement inhibitors (complement factor I, CFI) in retinae, as well as an increased C3b/C3 ratio in the RPE/choroid and retinae of ABCA4(-/-), mice was confirmed. We showed a corresponding increase of the C3d/C3 ratio in the serum of ABCA4(-/-) mice, while no changes were observed for CFI. Our findings suggest an overactive complement cascade in the ABCA4(-/-) retinae that possibly contributes to pathological alterations, including microglial activation and neurodegeneration. Overall, this underpins the importance of well-balanced complement homeostasis to maintain retinal integrity.

Discussion: Subgenus Alexandromys, middendorfii species group (Zagorodnyuk, 1990) or maximowiczii species group (Pavlinov and Rossolimo, 1998; Pavlinov et al., 1995 a). The latter species group association more accurately reflects data synthesized from karyological, morphological, and hybirdization studies, which phylogenetically link M. sachalinensis most closely to M. maximowiczii within the subgenus Alexandromys (Meyer et al., 1996).

description: Introduction: In view of increasing resistance against antibiotics and antiseptics, antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) may be a promising approach for use in dentistry. The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism of action of aPDT with the phenalene-1-one derivatives SAPYR and SA-PN-05 as photosensitizers by evaluating bacterial ability to replicate, membrane integrity, metabolic activity, and formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in biofilms of Actinomyces naeslundii, Streptococcus mutans, and Escherichia coli. Materials and Methods: Single-species biofilms (A. naeslundii, S. mutans, and E. coli) were cultured under aerobic conditions for 48 h followed by treatment with the photosensitizers SAPYR and SA-PN-05 at various concentrations (0, 50, 100, 500 mM) and different incubation periods of 5, 10, 20, and 30 min and subsequent irradiation for 10 min (Waldmann PIB 3000; lambda(em) = 360-600 nm; 50 mW/cm(2); 30 J/cm(2)). Control samples were treated with dH(2)O and kept in dark for the same periods. Bacterial ability to replicate was evaluated by colony forming unit (CFU) assay. The cytoplasmic membrane integrity was investigated by flow cytometry using SYBR Green and propidium iodide and visualized by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. For SAPYR, metabolic activity and formation of intracellular ROS after irradiation were evaluated via luminescence and fluorometric assays, respectively. Results: SAPYR showed antimicrobial effects (>3 log(10) CFU reduction) on S. mutans after 5 min and on A. naeslundii after 20 min incubation and light activation. For E. coli, CFU reduction was >2 log(10) after 30 min of incubation. SA-PN-05 showed an antimicrobial effect after 5 min for all bacteria. Membrane damage upon aPDT with SAPYR was observed for E. coli, but not for S. mutans and A. naeslundii. Following treatment with SA-PN-05, irradiated samples and dark controls of all three species showed loss of membrane integrity. Luminescence and fluorometric assays showed a reduction in metabolic activity and an increase in formation of intracellular ROS in all three species upon aPDT treatment with SAPYR. Conclusion: The observed loss in ability to replicate upon aPDT with SAPYR in single-species biofilms may be due to an increase in formation of intracellular ROS upon photodynamic treatment.

description: A series of chiral mechanochromic copper(I) cAAC (cAAC=cyclic (alkyl)(amino)carbene) complexes with a variety of amide ligands have been studied with regard to their photophysical and chiroptical properties to elucidate structure-property relationships for the design of efficient triplet exciton emitters exhibiting circularly polarized luminescence. Depending on the environment, which determines the excited state energies, either thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) from 1/3LLCT states or phosphorescence from 3LLCT/LC states occurs. However, neither chiral moieties at the carbene nor at the carbazolate ligands provide detectable luminescence dissymmetries glum. An exception is [Cu(phenoxazinyl)(cAAC)], showing orange to deep red TADF with λmax=601–715 nm in solution, powders and in PMMA. In this case, the amide ligand can undergo distortions in the excited state. This design motif leads to the first linear, non-aggregated CPL-active copper(I) complex with glum of −3.4 ⋅ 10−3 combined with a high radiative rate constant of 6.7 ⋅ 105 s−1.

description: Multi-resistant microorganisms are a long-standing problem for public healthcare, as inactivating those resistant pathogens with conventional antibiotics or antiseptics often no longer achieves the expected clinical success. The aim of this in vitro study was to investigate the antibacterial efficacy of binary combinations of conventional antibacterial agents with cold atmospheric plasma (CAP), when both are applied in non-lethal concentrations. In this study, Enterococcus faecalis biofilms were treated with CAP in binary combinations with benzalkonium chloride (BAC), chlorhexidine (CHX), or ciprofloxacin (CIP), respectively, which were applied in different sequences. In order to evaluate effects of binary use of two different antibacterial approaches, the so-called latest time point of retreatment (LTPR) was defined. For this purpose, regrowth curves of the bacteria were measured following the respective treatment combinations. LTPR is defined as the time component of the inflection point of a normalized regrowth curve and allows the rating and interpretation of single or binary treatments with different agents or approaches. Furthermore, LTPR designates the latest time point where a retreatment appears to be appropriate for preventing regrowth of the bacteria in case the first treatment was not lethal. Here in our study, the binary combination of 10 min CAP with BAC, CHX, or CIP leads to higher LTPRs as compared to single treatments for both sequences of application. Overall, the combination of two antimicrobial approaches is an effective alternative for inactivating bacteria in biofilms instead of a single treatment. Thus, LTPR provides a novel promising way to determine antibacterial effects for single or binary use of given antimicrobial approaches.

description: Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) processes offer the best possible design options for the production of highly complex components with unique functionalities. Although the development of additive manufacturing processes is progressing impressively and build rates have already been significantly increased, the economic production of high-volume components is still particularly truncated. Comparatively expensive powders, machine-hour rates, and a limited construction space demonstrate a high demand for joining LPBF components to conventionally manufactured parts. Vacuum brazing is an excellent technology for manufacturing and simultaneous heat treatment of such hybrid components. The aim of this study is to investigate the brazeability and the joint properties of ultrahigh-strength nickel maraging steel 18MAR300 (1.2709, X3NiCoMoTi18-9-5) using BVAg-30 (Ag68Cu27Pd5) as brazing filler metal. For this purpose, the effect of nickel-plated surfaces on the wettability and the microstructure of the joint is studied for conv./conv.-, LPBF/conv.-, and LPBF/LPBF joints. Furthermore, the quasi-static and quasi-dynamic joint strength is evaluated. The results prove that nickel-plated surfaces are vital to achieve a sufficient process control. The coating assures a deoxidized and sealed surface which favors the formation of NiCu(Fe,Pd,Ag) phases within the braze metal thus enhancing the joint strength. In addition, LPBF/LPBF joint features have significantly higher tensile strength than conv./conv. joints (825–627 MPa).

description: Correlation for $p_T$ cross section between 2.4 < |y| < 2.8 and 2.0 < |y| < 2.4
description: CERN-LHC. This paper presents for the first time a precise measurement of the production properties of the $Z$ boson in the full phase space of the decay leptons. This is in contrast to the many previous precise unfolded measurements performed in the fiducial phase space of the decay leptons. The measurement is obtained from proton--proton collision data collected by the ATLAS experiment in 2012 at $\sqrt{s} = 8$ TeV at the LHC and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.2 fb$^{-1}$. The results, based on a total of 15.3 million $Z$-boson decays to electron and muon pairs, extend and improve a previous measurement of the full set of angular coefficients describing $Z$-boson decay. The double-differential cross-section distributions in $Z$-boson transverse momentum $p_T$ and rapidity $y$ are measured in the pole region, defined as $80 < m_{\ell\ell} < 100$ GeV, over the range $|y| < 3.6$. The total uncertainty of the normalised cross-section measurements in the peak region of the $p_T$ distribution is dominated by statistical uncertainties over the full range and increases as a function of rapidity from $0.5-1.0$% for $|y| < 2.0$ to $2-7$% at higher rapidities. The results for the rapidity-dependent transverse momentum distributions are compared to state-of-the-art QCD predictions, which combine in the best cases approximate N$^4$LL resummation with N$^3$LO fixed-order perturbative calculations. The differential rapidity distributions integrated over $p_T$ are even more precise, with accuracies from $0.2-0.3$% for $|y| < 2.0$ to $0.4-0.9$% at higher rapidities, and are compared to fixed-order QCD predictions using the most recent parton distribution functions. The agreement between data and predictions is quite good in most cases.

description: Stroke-associated pneumonia is a major cause for poor outcomes in the post-acute phase after stroke. Several studies have suggested potential links between neglected oral health and pneumonia. Therefore, the aim of this prospective observational study was to investigate oral health and microbiota and incidence of pneumonia in patients consecutively admitted to a stroke unit with stroke-like symptoms. This study involved three investigation timepoints. The baseline investigation (within 24 h of admission) involved collection of demographic, neurological, and immunological data; dental examinations; and microbiological sampling (saliva and subgingival plaque). Further investigation timepoints at 48 or 120 h after baseline included collection of immunological data and microbiological sampling. Microbiological samples were analyzed by culture technique and by 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing. From the 99 patients included in this study, 57 were diagnosed with stroke and 42 were so-called stroke mimics. From 57 stroke patients, 8 (14%) developed pneumonia. Stroke-associated pneumonia was significantly associated with higher age, dysphagia, greater stroke severity, embolectomy, nasogastric tubes, and higher baseline C-reactive protein (CRP). There were trends toward higher incidence of pneumonia in patients with more missing teeth and worse oral hygiene. Microbiological analyses showed no relevant differences regarding microbial composition between the groups. However, there was a significant ecological shift over time in the pneumonia patients, probably due to antibiotic treatment. This prospective observational study investigating associations between neglected oral health and incidence of SAP encourages investigations in larger patient cohorts and implementation of oral hygiene programs in stroke units that may help reducing the incidence of stroke-associated pneumonia.

description: Expanding Fitts' Law into a 3D context, we analyze PointARs, a mixed reality system that teaches pointer skills through an object manipulation task. Nine distinct configurations, varying in object sizes and distances, were explored to evaluate task complexity using metrics such as completion time, error rate, and throughput. Our results support Fitts' Law, showing that increased distances generally increase task difficulty. However, contrary to its predictions, larger objects also led to higher complexity, possibly due to the system's limitations in tracking them. Based on these findings, we suggest using tangible cubes between 1.5" and 2" in size and limiting the distance between objects to 2" for optimal interaction in the system's 3D space. Future research should explore additional configurations and shapes to further validate Fitts' Law in the context of 3D object manipulation in systems like PointARs. This could help refine guidelines for designing mixed reality interfaces.

description: The spectral resolution of 2D H-1-C-13 heteronuclear single quantum coherence (H-1-C-13-HSQC) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra facilitates both metabolite identification and quantification in nuclear magnetic resonance-based metabolomics. However, quantification is complicated by variations in magnetization transfer, which among others originate mainly from scalar coupling differences. Methods that compensate for variation in scalar coupling include the generation of calibration factors for individual signals or the use of additional pulse sequence schemes such as quantitative HSQC (Q-HSQC) that suppress the J(CH)-dependence by modulating the polarization transfer delays of HSQC or, additionally, employ a pure-shift homodecoupling approach in the 1(H) dimension, such as Quantitative, Perfected and Pure Shifted HSQC (QUIPU-HSQC). To test the quantitative accuracy of these three methods, employing a 600 MHz NMR spectrometer equipped with a helium cooled cryoprobe, a Latin-square design that covered the physiological concentration ranges of 10 metabolites was used. The results show the suitability of all three methods for the quantification of highly abundant metabolites. However, the substantially increased residual water signal observed in QUIPU-HSQC spectra impeded the quantification of low abundant metabolites located near the residual water signal, thus limiting its utility in high-throughput metabolite fingerprinting studies.

description: Kochosa nigra sp. nov.
(Figs 13, 17A–C)
Holotype. Female, Blackdown Tableland, via Dingo (23º50'S 149º03'E, Queensland, AUSTRALIA), R. J. Raven, 1–6 February 1981, pitfall traps (QM S71611).
Etymology. The specific epithet is an adjective in apposition derived from the Latin nigra (= black) and refers to the type locality, Blackdown Tableland.
Other material examined. Only known from holotype.
Diagnosis. Females of K. nigra sp. nov. are most similar to K. confusa sp. nov. due to their triangular raised median septum of the epigyne (Figs 11C, 17C). However, in K. nigra sp. nov. the edge of the median septum is not connected medially (Fig. 17C), whereas it is continuous in K. confusa sp. nov (Fig. 11C).
Description.
Male. Unknown.
Female (based on holotype, QM S71611).
Cephalothorax. Dorsally olive-brown with darker radial pattern; median light band narrowing posteriorly (Fig. 17A). Sternum dark brown with scattered small light spots (Fig. 17B).
Abdomen. Dorsally dark olive-brown; mottled with light brown small spots; cardiac mark yellow-brown and continuous, narrowing posteriorly (Fig. 17A). Venter light olive-brown; spinnerets yellow-brown (Fig. 16B).
Epigyne (Fig. 17C). Ventral view: ovoid wider than long, V-shaped median septum, spermathecal heads distinctly visible through cuticle and almost touching medially; dorsal view not examined as only known from single holotype.

Microtus (Terricola) schelkovnikovi Satunin 1907, Izv. Kavkas. Mus., 3 (1): 242.
Type Locality: SE Azerbaijan, Talysk Mtns, near village of Dzhi.
Vernacular Names: Schelkovnikov's Pine Vole.
Synonyms: Microtus (Terricola) dorothea (Ellerman 1948).
Distribution: S Azerbaijan (Talysk Mtns) and NW Iran (Elburz Mtns), in mountains bounding southern margin of Caspian Sea.
Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).
Discussion: Subgenus Terricola, sole member of schelkovnikovi species group (Zagorodnyuk, 1990), or the majori species group with connate M. majori (Pavlinov et al., 1995 a; Pavlinov and Rossolimo, 1998). Although lumped under Pitymys subterraneus by Ellerman Morrison-Scott (1951), its specific validity is well documented (Kratochvíl, 1970; Kratochvíl and Kral, 1974). Chromosomal data summarized by Zima and Kral (1984 a). Karyotypic contrasts between Caucasus M. schelkovnikovi (2n = 54, FN = 62), M. majori (2n = 54, FN = 60), and M. daghestanicus (2n = 38-54, FN = 58) and inferences on pine vole chromosomal evolution (subgenus Terricola) in the Caucasus offered by Achverdjan et al. (1992); see account of M. daghestanicus. The name kaznakovi was thought to be potentially valid for this species (see reference in Corbet, 1984), but Pavlinov and Rossolimo (1987) avoided its use, and Rossolimo and Pavlinov (1992) and Rossolimo et al. (1994) placed it in the synonymy of Alticola stoliczkanus.

description: Early diagnosis of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) is crucial to prevent lethal disease in immunocompromized hosts. So far, lipopolysaccharide binding protein (LBP) and bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein (BPI) levels have not been evaluated as biomarkers for IPA. IL-8, previously introduced as a biomarker for IPA, was also included in this study. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of IPA patients and control patients with non-infectious lung disease was collected according to clinical indications. Measurements in BALF displayed significantly higher levels of LBP (p < 0.0001), BPI (p = 0.0002) and IL-8 (p < 0.0001) in IPA compared to control patients. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis revealed higher AUC for LBP (0.98, 95% CI 0.95-1.00) than BPI (0.84, 95% CI 0.70-0.97; p = 0.0301). Although not significantly different, AUC of IL-8 (0.93, 95% CI 0.85-1.00) also tended to be higher than AUC for BPI (p = 0.0624). When the subgroup of non-hematological patients was analyzed, test performance of LBP (AUC 0.99, 95% CI 0.97-1.00), BPI (AUC 0.97, 95% CI 0.91-1.00) and IL-8 (AUC 0.96, 95% CI: 0.90-1.00) converged. In conclusion, LBP and-to a lesser extend-BPI displayed high AUCs that were comparable to those of IL-8 for diagnosis of IPA in BALF. Further investigations are worthwhile, especially in non-hematological patients in whom sensitive biomarkers for IPA are lacking.

Type Locality: Transcaucasia, NW Armenia, Leninakan Dist., "vicinity of Nalband railway station, 35 km E from Leninakan" (Golenishchev et al., 2002:53), 1200 m.
Vernacular Names: Schidlovsky's Vole.
Synonyms: Microtus (Microtus) colchicus Argyropulo 1932; Microtus (Microtus) goriensis Argyropulo 1935.
Distribution: Transcaucasia, recorded from W Armenia and Georgia (Ahverdyan et al., 1991 b); limits unresolved.
Discussion: Subgenus Microtus, socialis species group (Zagorodnyuk, 1990). Placed in subgenus Sumeriomys by Gromov and Erbajeva (1995). Long included in M. socialis (Ellerman and Morrison-Scott, 1951; Pavlinov and Rossolimo, 1987; Pavlinov et al., 1995 a). Pavlinov and Rossolimo (1998) and Kryštufek and Kefelioğlu (2002) also questioned the separate status for schidlovskii, and Pavlinov and Rossolimo (1998) placed it in the synonymy of M. socialis with reservation. Reinstated as species by Ahverdyan et al. (1991 a, 1991 b), who demonstrated that hybridization between schidlovskii (2n and FN = 60-62) and M. socialis (2n and FN = 62) produced only sterile F1s and analyzed supportive chromosomal and morphological data. Species status reaffirmed by Golenishchev et al. (2002) based on bacular morphology and hybridization trials. Gromov and Erbajeva (1995) listed goriensis (a replacement name for colchicus) as a subspecies.

description: PURPOSE. Vitronectin, a cell adhesion and spreading factor, is suspected to play a role in the pathogenesis of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), as it is a major component of AMD-specific extracellular deposits (e.g., soft drusen, subretinal drusenoid deposits). The present study addressed the impact of AMD-associated non-synonymous variant rs704 in the vitronectin-encoding gene VTN on vitronectin functionality. METHODS. Effects of rs704 on vitronectin expression and processing were analyzed by semi-quantitative sequencing of VTN transcripts from retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells generated from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) and from human neural retina, as well as by western blot analyses on heterologously expressed vitronectin isoforms. Binding of vitronectin isoforms to retinal and endothelial cells was analyzed by western blot. Immunofluorescence staining followed extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition in cultured RPE cells heterologously expressing the vitronectin isoforms. Adhesion of fluorescently labeled RPE or endothelial cells in dependence of recombinant vitronectin or vitronectin-containing ECM was investigated fluorometrically or microscopically. Tube formation and migration assays addressed effects of vitronectin on angiogenesis-related processes. RESULTS. Variant rs704 affected expression, secretion, and processing but not oligomerization of vitronectin. Cell binding and influence on RPE-mediated ECM deposition differed between AMD-risk-associated and non-AMD-risk-associated protein isoforms. Finally, vitronectin affected adhesion and endothelial tube formation. CONCLUSIONS. The AMD-risk-associated vitronectin isoform exhibits increased expression and altered functionality in cellular processes related to the sub-RPE aspects of AMD pathology. Although further research is required to address the subretinal disease aspects, this initial study supports an involvement of vitronectin in AMD pathogenesis.

description: Simple Summary: Colorectal cancer is one of the most frequent types of cancer world-wide, leading to over 500,000 cancer-related deaths each year. Although many primary colorectal cancer patients can be cured by surgery, up to 60% will develop metastases. Chemotherapeutic strategies are well-established, but finally often lead to chemo-resistance and tumor relapse. A specific chemotherapeutic approach is low dose metronomic (LDM) therapy, which is based on a constant administration of low doses of a chemotherapeutic compound instead of high-dose pulses, which are often a huge burden for patients and also may induce rapid resistance. However, the molecular mechanism of LDM chemotherapy is not fully understood. Our study therefore aims at identifying gene signatures of colorectal cancer progression under LDM chemotherapy which eventually provides new potential biomarkers for therapeutic interventions. Understanding the molecular signatures of colorectal cancer progression under chemotherapeutic treatment will be crucial for the success of future therapy improvements. Here, we used a xenograft-based mouse model to investigate, how whole transcriptome signatures change during metastatic colorectal cancer progression and how such signatures are affected by LDM chemotherapy using RNA sequencing. We characterized mRNAs as well as non-coding RNAs such as microRNAs, long non-coding RNAs and circular RNAs in colorectal-cancer bearing mice with or without LDM chemotherapy. Furthermore, we found that circZNF609 functions as oncogene, since over-expression studies lead to an increased tumor growth while specific knock down results in smaller tumors. Our data represent novel insights into the relevance of non-coding and circRNAs in colorectal cancer and provide a comprehensive resource of gene expression changes in primary tumors and metastases. In addition, we present candidate genes that could be important modulators for successful LDM chemotherapy.
