Background
Oxidative stress is recognized as a key factor in the induction of endothelial dysfunction in diabetes. However, the specific mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. We herein hypothesized that ubiquitin‐like containing PHD and RING finger domains 1 (UHRF1) might have a role in oxidative stress‐induced endothelial cell (EC) apoptosis in diabetes.

Salt crystallization and phase change in porous media cause significant deterioration of cultural heritage made of stones and bricks. In this study, laboratory experiments on salt weathering of sandstone from the Dazu rock carvings (DRC) in Chongqing, southwest China, were carried out by exposing them to cycles of temperature and humidity change. Mirabilite, the main component of the salts in DRC...
