Eps8 is a potential anticancer drug target in colorectal cancer
Tzeng-Horng Leu

Eps8 (EGF receptor pathway substrate number 8) is an adaptor protein and a common substrate for both EGF receptor and Src tyrosine kinase.  Src not only can phosphorylate Eps8 but also influence its expression.  Overexpression of Eps8 in murine fibroblasts led to cellular transformation, and remarkably, upregulation of Eps8 played a pivotal role in Src-mediated carcinogenesis.  Of note ...

Entecavir Therapy for up to 96 Weeks in Patients With HBeAg-Positive Chronic Hepatitis B
Ting-Tsung Chang

Introduction:
Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) is one of the most common infectious diseases in Taiwan, affecting approximately three million people. More than one-half of reported cases of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and reported cases of cirrhosis are caused by chronic hepatitis B. An estimated 400 million people worldwide are chronically infected with ...

A novel heterodyne polarimeter for the multiple-parameter measurements of twisted nematic liquid crystal cell using a genetic algorithm approach
Yu-Lung Lo

1.Introduction
The optical parameters such as a cell gap, twist angle, and the entrance orientation of molecular direction (i.e. the director angle) are highly important for twisted nematic liquid crystal (TNLC) displays because these parameters are closely related to the optical qualities of the LC display devices. In this article, a new approach for ...

Judicial Independence and Democratic Accountability
Chin-shou Wang

1. Introduction
There is a conflict between judicial independence and democratic accountability, but this problem is particularly serious for Taiwanese prosecutorial system. The judicary and prosecution emphasized on institutional reform but ignored the problem of judicial democratic accountability. In order to understand the root of the problem, ...

The reactor design and comparison of Fenton, electro-Fenton and photoelectro-Fenton processes for mineralization of benzene sulfonic Acid (BSA)
Yao-Hui Huang

A new approach of photoelectro assisted Fenton process has been developed in our laboratory. It is found that the Fenton reaction can be efficiency enhanced in photoelectro assisted Fenton process since Fe(Ⅲ) may complex with certain target compounds or byproducts, especially those acting as ligands, produced by UVA light and current. The new design of our system came from the concept of ...
