Item RNA-seq raw data for article entitled: MIG-6 Regulates HDAC1-Mediated Angiogenesis and Tumorigenesis in PTEN-Deficient Endometrioid Endometrial Cancer(2025) Nahar, Shamsun; Jeong, Jae-WookThis dataset supports the article entitled: MIG-6 Regulates HDAC1-Mediated Angiogenesis and Tumorigenesis in PTEN-Deficient Endometrioid Endometrial Cancer. DESCRIPTION OF THE DATA: In this study Pgrcre/+ Ptenf/f Mig-6over female mice were generated by breeding Pgrcre/+Ptenf/f male with Mig-6over females. The total RNA from mouse uterus were isolated by QIAGEN RNeasy Mini Kit following the vendor's manual. The library was prepared by University of Missouri Genomic Technology Coe Total RNA Library Preparation (rRNA depletion) service. The raw reads were initially filtered by removing low quality reads (average quality scores >50) and aligned to the mm39 genome and assembled using Star 2.7.9a. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified by the exact negative binomial test in the EdgeR software. The file containing the normalized counts for each samples. This work was supported by the National Cancer Institute of the National Institutes of Health under Award Number R01CA264944 (to J.W.J).Item Generative AI Alcohol and Breast Cancer Dataset (v1 - 20251107)(2025) Bautista, John Robert; 0000-0002-4892-9543Text and screen capture of generative AI health information about alcohol consumption and breast cancer risk.Item Memoir of a Missouri River Rat(2025) Krause, William J."There are times when I sit quietly and reflect on the past, and the memories come back like an old black-and-white film--grainy, simple, yet vivid. I've often been asked what it was like growing up in America during the 1940s, '50s, and '60s. My brothers, children and grandchildren have posed questions about my childhood, curious about what life was like in an era so different from today. It feels important--urgent even--to share these stories, not just as a record, but as a window into a world that has nearly vanished. Thus, over the past few years, I jotted down a few memories to share." -- page 6Item Life and the Universe : What if …?(University of Missouri, Department of Physics and Astronomy, 2018) Ruzhitskaya, Lanika; Montfrooij, WouterScientists observe nature and try to make sense of what they see. Complex phenomena are reduced to manifestations of simpler truths until they arrive at a fundamental understanding of how things work, move and interact. And then what? Can these simpler truths be simplified further? Where did these truths come from? What if they were a little different: Would we still be here to ponder them? Pondering these imponderables has led to the realization that there must be more to the universe than meets the eye: God(s) or more than just our universe. Anything else would not make sense, and sense is what human beings would like to see in the word around them, a reason or explanation for our universe. This book is a journey through the world of physics and cosmology, and an exploration of our role in this universe. We will address questions such as: What if the force of gravity were a little stronger? What if there were more of fewer atoms in our universe? What if Newton and not Einstein had been right? Would we still be here? Can the universe exist without us to observe it? Can chance explain the world around us, as well as us? The purpose of this book is to phrase these questions and pursue the consequences of potential answers through rigorous scientific reasoning; in the process we will learn how the very small and the very large are interconnected, and even how we can affect events that happened six billion years ago. -- Preface.
