[PDF][PDF] Y-Chromosome evidence for a northward migration of modern humans into Eastern Asia during the last Ice Age

B Su, J Xiao, P Underhill, R Deka, W Zhang… - The American Journal of …, 1999 - cell.com
The timing and nature of the arrival and the subsequent expansion of modern humans into
eastern Asia remains controversial. Using Y-chromosome biallelic markers, we investigated …

Y chromosome haplotypes reveal prehistorical migrations to the Himalayas

B Su, C Xiao, R Deka, MT Seielstad, D Kangwanpong… - Human genetics, 2000 - Springer
By using 19 Y chromosome biallelic markers and 3 Y chromosome microsatellite markers,
we analyzed the genetic structure of 31 indigenous Sino-Tibetan speaking populations (607 …

Mechanisms regulating the development of oligodendrocytes and central nervous system myelin

S Mitew, CM Hay, H Peckham, J Xiao, M Koenning… - Neuroscience, 2014 - Elsevier
Oligodendrocytes and the myelin they produce are a remarkable vertebrate specialization
that enables rapid and efficient nerve conduction within the central nervous system. The …

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor promotes central nervous system myelination via a direct effect upon oligodendrocytes

J Xiao, AW Wong, MM Willingham, M van den Buuse… - Neurosignals, 2011 - karger.com
The extracellular factors that are responsible for inducing myelination in the central nervous
system (CNS) remain elusive. We investigated whether brain-derived neurotrophic factor (…

Experimental study on the stability of railroad silt subgrade with increasing train speed

J Liu, J Xiao - Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental …, 2010 - ascelibrary.org
The comfort and safety of a moving train is largely determined by the dynamic response of
the railway track and its foundation (ie, subgrade). To study the dynamic stability of a silt …

The circadian clock gene Bmal1 acts as a potential anti-oncogene in pancreatic cancer by activating the p53 tumor suppressor pathway

…, X Jiang, E Zhang, G Hu, B Hu, P Zheng, J Xiao… - Cancer letters, 2016 - Elsevier
Disruption of the circadian clock has been shown to be associated with tumor development.
This study aimed to investigate the role of the core circadian gene Bmal1 in pancreatic …

Oligodendroglial expression of TrkB independently regulates myelination and progenitor cell proliferation

AW Wong, J Xiao, D Kemper, TJ Kilpatrick… - Journal of …, 2013 - Soc Neuroscience
The neurotrophin brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has been implicated in regulating
CNS myelination. BDNF mutant mice exhibit a hypomyelinating phenotype, and BDNF …

Probabilistic back analysis of slope failure–a case study in Taiwan

L Wang, JH Hwang, Z Luo, CH Juang, J Xiao - Computers and Geotechnics, 2013 - Elsevier
In this paper, the authors present a probabilistic back-analysis of a recent slope failure at a
site on Freeway No. 3 in northern Taiwan. Post-event investigations of this failure found …

ceRNA in cancer: possible functions and clinical implications

X Qi, DH Zhang, N Wu, JH Xiao, X Wang… - Journal of medical …, 2015 - jmg.bmj.com
Competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) are transcripts that can regulate each other at post-transcription
