- Prior studies of IPO underpricing, mostly using agency theory and single-country samples, have generally fallen short. In this study, we employ the knowledge-based view (KBV) to explore underpricing across 17 countries. We find that agency indicators are insignificant predictors, board of director knowledge limits underpricing, and external knowledge both substitutes for and complements internal board knowledge. This third finding suggests that future KBV studies should consider how internal and external knowledge states interact with each other. Our study offers new insights into the antecedents of underpricing and extends our understanding of comparative governance and the KBV of the firm. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Finite-time attitude synchronization with distributed discontinuous protocols
- 2018
-
In: IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control. - Piscataway, New Jersey : Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). - 0018-9286 .- 1558-2523. ; 63:10, s. 3608-3615

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The finite-time attitude synchronization problem is considered in this paper, where the rotation of each rigid body is expressed using the axis-angle representation. Two discontinuous and distributed controllers using the vectorized signum function are proposed, which guarantee almost global and local convergence, respectively. Filippov solutions and non-smooth analysis techniques are adopted to handle the discontinuities. Sufficient conditions are provided to guarantee finite-time convergence and boundedness of the solutions. Simulation examples are provided to verify the performances of the control protocols designed in this paper.

Does board independence influence financial performance in IPO firms? : The moderating role of the national business system
- 2017
-

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Prior evidence suggests that board independence may enhance financial performance, but this relationship has been tested almost exclusively for Anglo-American countries. To explore the boundary conditions of this prominent governance mechanism, we examine the impact of the formal and information institutions of 18 national business systems on the board independence-financial performance relationship. Our results show that while the direct effect of independence is weak, national-level institutions significantly moderate the independence-performance relationship. Our findings suggest that the efficacy of board structures is likely to be contingent on the specific national context, but the type of legal system is insignificant. © 2017 Elsevier Inc.

SNX10 (sorting nexin 10) inhibits colorectal cancer initiation and progression by controlling autophagic degradation of SRC
- 2020

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The non-receptor tyrosine kinase SRC is a key mediator of cellular protumorigenic signals. SRC is aberrantly over-expressed and activated in more than 80% of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients, therefore regulation of its stability and activity is essential. Here, we report a significant down regulation of SNX10 (sorting nexin 10) in human CRC tissues, which is closely related to tumor differentiation, TNM stage, lymph node metastasis and survival period. SNX10 deficiency in normal and neoplastic colorectal epithelial cells promotes initiation and progression of CRC in mice. SNX10 controls SRC levels by mediating autophagosome-lysosome fusion and SRC recruitment for autophagic degradation. These mechanisms ensure proper controlling of the activities of SRC-STAT3 and SRC-CTNNB1 signaling pathways by up-regulating SNX10 expression under stress conditions. These findings suggest that SNX10 acts as a tumor suppressor in CRC and it could be a potential therapeutic target for future development.Abbreviations: ACTB: actin beta; ATG5: autophagy related 5; ATG12: autophagy related 12; CQ: chloroquine; CRC: colorectal cancer; CTNNB1: catenin beta 1; EBSS: Earle's balanced salt solution; KO: knockout; LAMP1: lysosomal associated membrane protein 1; LAMP2: lysosomal associated membrane protein 2; MAP1LC3: microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3; MKI67: marker of proliferation Ki-67; mRNA: messenger RNA; PX: phox homology; RT-qPCR: real time quantitative polymerase chain reaction; siRNA: small interfering RNA; SNX10: sorting nexin 10; SQSTM1: sequestosome 1; SRC: SRC proto-oncogene, non-receptor tyrosine kinase; STAT3: signal transducer and activator of transcription 3; WT: wild type. © 2019 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group
