Abstract: Inhibins and activins are protein hormones that reciprocally modulate a diversity of regulatory pathways. Competitive binding experiments revealed that betaglycan, the type III TGF-β receptor, also functions as an inhibin receptor. Betaglycan augments the binding of inhibin to the ActRII activin receptor. By augmenting inhibin binding to ActRII, betaglycan effectively sequesters ActRII away from activin and thereby reduces activin signaling. In addition, the ActRII-betaglycan complex may generate novel signals distinct from those initiated by activin signaling via ActRII and ALK4. Betaglycan is produced in discrete nuclei of the rat brain and by specific cell types within the adult rat pituitary, testis, and ovary. The presence of betaglycan within inhibin-responsive tissues and cell types, together with the ability of this protoglycan to bind inhibin and to confer inhibin sensitivity, is consistent with a role of betaglycan as an inhibin-specific receptor mediating inhibin responses within various tissues.

Abstract: To prevent a trouble that a physical layer
misunderstands the kind of receive signal and erroneously
changes its state into a suspend state. 
     When a node B receives an idle signal (i.e. a request
cancel signal) from a node A (child node), the node B changes its
state into a wait grant state where the node B waits to receive a
grant signal from a node C (parent node) while keeping the
request signal to the node C (Fig. 33A). The node B confirms
that it has received the grant signal from the node C, and after
that, changes its state from the wait grant state into a wait idle
state where the node B transmits an idle signal to the node C,
and waits until the grant signal from the node C changes into an
idle signal (Fig. 33B). The node B confirms that it has received
the idle signal from the node C, and after that, returns its state
from the wait idle state into an idle state (Fig. 33D). As
described above, the node B is free from the situation in which it
receives a grant signal [00] from the node C in the idle state.
This arrangement prevents the node B from misunderstanding
that it has received a suspend signal and erroneously changing
its state into a suspend state.

fibre (6) is adjacent to the output facet of the laser
diode; and an adjustment means located at a distance from

actively aligning the end of the fibre (6) with the output
facet of the laser diode (3) using the above mentioned

well as reduction of the running cost. A second pump mechanism
portion is equipped on the way of an exhaust passage communicating
an exhaust side out of a first pump mechanism portion with a gas
outlet. The second pump mechanism portion is constructed to be

the first pump mechanism portion. When the pump speed of rotation
of the second pump mechanism portion is changed, the pressure of
the exhaust side out (backing pressure) of the first pump mechanism
portion changes. Therefore, efficiency of gas suction from a gas
inlet to the first pump mechanism portion side is increased or
decreased, and the pressure in a process chamber is changed.
