    Singaporemma wulongensis Lin & Li, 2014 Figures 6E–e, 7F Singaporemma wulongensis Lin & Li, 2014: 46, figs 7–9, 17, 20B Examined material. Holotype ♂, paratypes 8♂ and 20♀ (NHMSU), CHINA: Chongqing, Wulong, Tudi Town, Tiansheng Village, Xiaodong Cave, 29°31.853'N, 107°50.817'E, altitude 1050 m, 17 October 2010, L. Dou and Y. Lin leg. Diagnosis. Male of S. wulongensis differs from males of all other congeners with the exception of S. bifurcata by the furcate embolus (Fig. 6E–e vs. Fig. 6A–D, 6a–d, 6G–H, 6g –h); it differs from male of S. bifurcata by the narrower, longer oval bulb, the embolus with two equilong tip branches, and the embolus starts from the submesialback surface of bulb, but the embolus of S. bifurcata with asymmetric branches that origins from prolateral surface of bulb (Fig. 6E–e vs. Fig. 6F–f). Female of S. wulongensis seems also close to S. bifurcata having a similar vulval structure, but it can be distinguished by the lager “ω”-shaped inner vulval plate, and the longer, weakly sclerotized central process (Fig. 7F vs. Fig. 7D). Description. See Lin & Li, 2014: 46. Distribution. China (Chongqing) (Fig. 10).Published as part of Yan, Fanhu & Lin, Yucheng, 2018, A review of the spider genus Singaporemma (Araneae: Tetrablemmidae), with the description of a new species, pp. 329-346 in Zootaxa 4392 (2) on pages 344-345, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4392.2.6, http://zenodo.org/record/119544

    A new cultivar of safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.), was developed for safflower-producing areas in Mexico and was named CIANO-LIN. This variety was obtained in the Norman E. Borlaug Experimental Field (CENEB), of the National Research Institute for Forestry, Agriculture and Livestock (INIFAP) and registered with the number CAR-011-290909 on the national register of plant varieties. CIANO-LIN is a linoleic variety highly tolerant to false mildew (Ramularia carthami Z.) with yields from 3 to 4 t ha-1 and good quality of linoleic-type oil for domestic and export market. CIANO-LIN exceeds the control Bacum' 92, in yield, disease tolerance, quality and quantity of linoleic oil type. CIANO-LIN can be planted during Autumn-Winter in the states of Tamaulipas, Jalisco, Baja California, Baja California Sur, Sinaloa and Sonora.Una nueva variedad de cártamo (Carthamus tinctorius L.), fue desarrollada para las áreas productoras de cártamo en México, la cual se le dio el nombre de CIANO-LIN. Esta variedad fue obtenida en el Campo Experimental Norman E. Borlaug (CENEB), del Instituto Nacional de Investigaciones Forestales Agrí­colas y Pecuarias (INIFAP) y registrada con el níºmero CAR-011-290909 en el registro nacional de variedades de plantas. CIANO-LIN es una variedad linoléica altamente tolerante a la falsa cenicilla (Ramularia carthami Z.), con rendimientos de 3 a 4 t ha-1 y buena calidad de aceite de tipo linoleico para el mercado nacional y de exportación. CIANO-LIN supera al testigo Bacum'92, tanto en rendimiento, tolerancia a enfermedades, calidad y cantidad de aceite de tipo linoléico. CIANO-LIN se puede sembrar durante el ciclo otoño-invierno en los estados de Tamaulipas, Jalisco, Baja California, Baja California Sur, Sinaloa y Sonora

    Vascular endothelial growth factor restores delayed tumor progression in tumors depleted of macrophages

    Genetic depletion of macrophages in Polyoma Middle T oncoprotein (PyMT)-induced mammary tumors in mice delayed the angiogenic switch and the progression to malignancy. To determine whether vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) produced by tumor-associated macrophages regulated the onset of the angiogenic switch, a genetic approach was used to restore expression of VEGF-A into tumors at the benign stages. This stimulated formation of a high-density vessel network and in macrophage-depleted mice, was followed by accelerated tumor progression. The expression of VEGF-A led to a massive infiltration into the tumor of leukocytes that were mostly macrophages. This study suggests that macrophage-produced VEGF regulates malignant progression through stimulating tumor angiogenesis, leukocytic infiltration and tumor cell invasion
