Abstract: To gain a better understanding of tumor angiogenesis endothelial cells (Ecs) were isolated and gene expression patterns were evaluated. When transcripts from Ecs derived from normal and malignant colorectal tissues were compared with transcripts from non-endothelial cells, over 170 genes predominantly expressed in the endothelium were identified. Comparison between normal-and tumor-derived endothelium revealed differentially expressed genes, including many that were specifically elevated in tumor-associated endothelium. Experiments with representative genes from this group demonstrated that most were similarly expressed in the endothelium of primary lung, breast, brain, and pancreatic cancers as well as in metastatic lesions of the liver. These results demonstrate that neoplastic and normal endothelium in humans are distinct at the molecular level.

Abstract: A generalized approach to particle interaction can confer advantages over previously described method in terms of one or more of communications bandwidth and latency and memory access characteristics. These generalizations can involve one or more of at least spatial decomposition, import region rounding, and multiple zone communication scheduling. In a parallel implementation, the generalized approach can have the advantage that the communication bandwidth required by several instances of the approach come close or achieve an approximate lower bound for communication bandwidth. In a serial processing implementation, effective cache utilization can substantially reduce memory latency in processing.

Abstract: A technique for generating a combined model for isothermal and anisothermal fatigue life of a material is provided. As per the technique, multiple strain-controlled fatigue tests are performed on the material. For each test, test data is generated that includes a normalized load and a number of cycles to crack imitation in the material under the normalized load. The normalized load is a function of multiple instantaneous load levels determined at different points in time during the test. Each individual instantaneous load level is determined by normalizing a measured stress at an instant with a value of a temperature dependent property of the material corresponding to a temperature of the test at that instant. The test data from the plurality of strain- controlled tests are processed to generate a combined lifetime model defining a response of the number of cycles to crack initiation to the normalized load.
