Provenance and depositional facies of surficial sediments in Hudson Bay, a glaciated epeiric sea.
Creators: name: Henderson, Penny J.
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 1990
Subjects: subject: Geology.

description: A model for Wisconsinan glaciation and deglaciation of Hudson Bay is proposed based on depositional facies of the surficial sediments. These facies, defined on the basis of texture, composition, and acoustic character, indicate that sediment distribution is controlled primarily by Late Wisconsin glaciation. Post-glacial sedimentation is restricted to the shallow marine environment (100m deep) and involves reworking of glacially-derived sediments by rivers and/or marine currents. Deposition due to sea-ice rafting is minor. Within the glacigenic sediments, dispersal trends of distinctive lithologies and mineralogies (derived from sources adjacent to and underlying the bay) indicate that (1) western Hudson Bay was glaciated by ice flow eastward from a centre in the District of Keewatin, and (2) the eastern and southern bay was glaciated by ice flow westward from a dispersal centre in Nouveau Quebec. Seafloor geomorphic features and sediment composition suggest that deglaciation was focused at the confluence between these two ice sheets, possibly through ice streaming and calving bay formation. Eastward and southward dispersal of sediment derived from sources within the bay suggest a residual ice mass remained centered over Hudson Bay following glacial maximum. The deglaciation model invokes stabilization of the ice margin in the north, extension of a calving bay in Hudson Strait into west-central Hudson Bay, northward drainage of proglacial lakes along major bathymetric depressions, and, finally, rapid collapse of the ice sheet.

description: In this MA thesis, I aim to explain why certain texts “feel” queer. I employ articulation and affect theory to examine discursive relationships between entertainment media texts and queer identity. This thesis focuses on three texts and/or franchises – The Muppets, Pink Flamingos (1972), and Dark Shadows (1966-1971) – and considers their reception in public, professionalized writing such as newspapers and magazines. These reception artifacts show audiences decoding the films and television series as queer. Namely, they identify relationships between camp, divas, and queerness in their decoding. I argue that viewers’ classification of certain texts and textual properties as “queer” has formed a queer genre. I establish a historical presence of this genre during the period of the 1960s through the 1980s. As this time was already significant for queer communal identity and politics, I further underscore the establishment of queer reading practices during this period. These practices, where queer people read certain textual properties as queer, thereby form a collection of related texts. Furthermore, this affective genre signifies an increased agency from audiences through this establishment of a genre, as industrial encoding is not always necessary for a queer decoding. This queer affective genre is formed primarily by audiences, giving insight to alternative cultural formations of genre; moreover, it underscores entanglements between queer identity and entertainment media.

Millimeter-wave noise characterization of PHEMT devices.
Creators: name: Béland, Paul.
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 1997
Subjects: subject: Engineering, Electronics and Electrical.

description: The theoretical background of thermal noise representation in two-port networks is presented. From this theory, the existing measurement techniques to characterize the noise of pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistors (PHEMTs) at millimeter-wave frequencies are described. The techniques are applied to the now popular on-wafer measurement. A novel on-wafer resistive noise source (ORNS) which provides noise measurement capability at all frequencies from a single calibrated frequency is presented. Demonstration of the noise source capability is made by comparing the measurement of receiver noise figure and two-port noise parameter extraction with those of a coaxial noise source. A custom design of an on-wafer probing station featuring an adapter to directly connect an automated mechanical tuner to the on-wafer probe, and featuring double input and output probes, is evaluated for measurement of noise parameters from 26 to 40 GHz. The results obtained with two 150 $\mu$m parallel finger PHEMTs are presented and compared with the general trend of noise models and measurement on an independent system at 26 GHz. Uncertainty analysis is performed for the measurements made at 30 GHz using a commercial microwave computer aided design (CAD) software.
Charismatic patronage and brokerage: Episcopal leadership in the letters of Ignatius of Antioch.
Creators: name: Williams, Ritva H.
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 1997
Subjects: subject: Biography.

description: The goal of this dissertation is to engage in a comprehensive and systematic examination of the writings of Ignatius of Antioch on the subject of episcopal leadership. Working on the premise that the episcopacy is both an historical and a social phenomenon in the early church this study will attempt to combine historical and social-science methods of investigation. A review of 20th century scholarly work on the Ignatian correspondence will provide a point of departure for this work. In particular three issues raised by contemporary scholarship will be addressed. (1) With respect to the question of the historical plausibility of Ignatius' views on episcopal leadership, this study will seek to understand how his concept of the episcopacy fits into early 2nd century Christianity as it was developing in Syria. An examination of Matthew, the Didache, the Johannine Gospel and Epistles, and the Gospel of Thomas will be the basis of a reconstruction of leadership trends that are roughly contemporary with Ignatius. A comparison of these texts with the Syrian bishop's writings will show that his views seem to be partially rooted in developments that were preserved by the writers of the Didache and the Johannine texts. (2) Ignatius' notions about episcopal leadership also reflect hierarchical social arrangements that were prevalent in the Greco-Roman households which formed the immediate social context of the early church. Patronage was the means by which patriarchal authority was extended beyond the household into economic, political and religious relationships. The patron-broker-client model of social organization will be presented as an unconscious emic model shaping the way many early Christian writers, including Ignatius, understood and expressed the relationship between God and humans, and between church leaders and their congregations. (3) Weber's typology of authority, together with his work on the routinization of charisma, will be employed as an etic model to classify and compare the different leadership preferences displayed in the early Christian texts under review. This analysis will show that Ignatius' own personal authority was of the charismatic type deriving from his liminal position as a martyr-elect. He argues that bishops are chosen by the Holy Spirit to occupy an office which clothes them with "grace" and with spiritual gifts. These arguments point to a conception of episcopal authority that may be described etically as being of the routinized charismatic type. In this respect Ignatius moves beyond, and in a somewhat different direction than other early Syrian Christian writers.

Year: 2024

description: Neuroaesthetics is an area of research that investigates the underpinnings of aesthetic processing. The thesis aimed to explore processing of Art and Design stimuli and whether there are any commonalities for positive and negative aesthetic responses between the two types of stimuli using electroencephalography. Research into neuroaesthetics is bridging the gap in the literature of aesthetic research with regard to ordinary objects. The thesis reports on two experiments that investigated two experiments which investigated two parallel lines of inquiry: the neural correlates of aesthetic responses, and the role of Typicality and Novelty in aesthetic preference of common objects.

description: Background: Long-distance migratory birds in North America have undergone precipitous declines over the past half-century. Although the trend is clear, for many migrating species underpinning the exact causes poses a challenge to conservation due to the numerous stressors that they encounter. Climate conditions during all phases of their annual cycle can have important consequences for their survival. Here, using 15 years of capture-recapture dataset, we determined the effects of various climate factors during the breeding, wintering, and migrating stages on the annual survival of a western yellow-breasted chat (Icteria virens auricollis) population breeding in southwestern Canada. Results: El Niño effects over the entire annual cycle had little influence on the annual apparent survival of yellow-breasted chats. However, we found evidence that wind conditions during migration, specifically average westerly wind speed or the frequency of storm events, had significant adverse effects on adult annual apparent survival. In comparison, precipitation levels on wintering ground had little to no influence on adult annual apparent survival, whereas growing degree days on the breeding ground had moderate but positive effects. Conclusions: In the face of climate change and its predicted impacts on climate processes, understanding the influence of weather conditions on the survival of migrating birds can allow appropriate conservation strategies to be adopted for chats and other declining neotropical migrants.
Lipid mobilization in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss).
Creators: name: Bernard, Servane.
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: Biology, Animal Physiology.

description: Even though lipids are thought to be a major metabolic fuel in fish during aerobic activity, little is known about their mobilization. Therefore, the goal of my thesis was to quantify lipid mobilization in fish. By analogy with mammals, I hypothesized that when fish are subjected to submaximal exercise, they mobilize their triacylglycerol (TAG) reserves above resting levels, which would result in: (1) increases in fatty acid (NEFA) and glycerol appearance rates (also termed fluxes), and (2) a decrease in the percent of NEFA reesterified by the TAG:FA substrate cycle. To test this hypothesis, I measured NEFA and glycerol rates of appearance, and I calculated the intracellular TAG:FA cycling rate in rainbow trout swimming for 1 h at either 1.0 or 1.5 bl s$\sp{-1},$ and 4 days at 1.0 bl s$\sp{-1}.$ This study is the first to measure glycerol appearance rate and TAG:FA cycling in fish. This thesis demonstrates that during submaximal exercise fish do not mobilize their triacylglycerol reserves above their resting levels. This result contrasts with what was expected by analogy to the mammalian situation or from body composition studies in exercising fish. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

description: In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden Mechanismen und therapeutische Ziele der ventrikulären und atrialen Dysfunktion sowie deren Relevanz im Kontext einer systolischen oder diastolischen Herzinsuffizienz vorgestellt. Die zentralen Hypothesen sind: 1. Die Dyssynchronie der Kalziumfreisetzung und Kalziumentfernung ist wesentlich an der Pathophysiologie mechanischer atrialer und ventrikulärer Dysfunktion bei systolischer Herzinsuffizienz beteiligt. 2. Arrhythmien auf Ebene des Vorhofs werden im Kontext der systolischen Herzinsuffizienz durch lokale Unterschiede von am Kalziumhaushalt beteiligten und therapeutisch modulierbaren Proteinen begünstigt. 3. Bei der diastolischen Herzinsuffizienz und hypertensiven Herzerkrankung tragen verschiedene Kompensationsmechanismen zu einer Steigerung der Kontraktilität atrialer Zellen ex vivo bei. 4. Durch neurohumorale Veränderungen und die Interaktion von Fibroblasten sowie Kardiomyozyten kommt es zu einer in vivo und in vitro Dekompensation der atrialen mechanischen Funktion, welche zum HFpEF Phänotyp und zur Entwicklung atrialer Arrhythmien beitragen könnte.

Subjects: subject: Engineering, Chemical.

description: Osmometry, viscometry, light scattering and Gel permeation chromatograph are normally used to measure the physical properties of polymer solutions and determine their average molecular weights. Nine monodisperse polystyrene standards with different molecular weights were used to obtain a conventional calibration curve for GPC. Another five polystyrene standards were used to obtain a universal calibration curve. By use of both calibration curves and the chromatogram of polymer sample from GPC, the number-average molecular weight, M¯n, and the weight-average molecular weight, M¯w, were consequently computed. Three polystyrene standards were characterized by osmometry, viscometry, light scattering, and GPC. Determinations of molecular weights were generally in agreement with their given molecular weight except for polystyrene of very high molecular weight. Commercial polybutadiene, polyisoprene, and two types of polystyrene-butadiene were also characterized by means of osmometry, viscometry, light scattering and GPC. M¯n for the synthetic rubbers as determined by osmometry was found to be in the range from 45,000 to 100,000. Because of some slight turbidity of polystyrene-butadiene-THF solution, the molecular weight determined by light scattering was found to be extremely high and finally deleted. From GPC analyses, it was found that synthetic rubber polymers had a relatively broad molecular weight distribution.

Localization of the myotonic dystrophy kinase in human and rodent muscle and central nervous tissue.
Creators: name: Whiting, Elisabeth J.
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 1995
Subjects: subject: Biology, Molecular.

description: Myotonic dystrophy (DM) is the most common form of inherited neuromuscular disease in adults and is characterized by progressive muscle wasting and myotonia. The mutation responsible for DM has been identified as the amplification of apolymorphic (CTG)$\rm\sb{n}$ repeat in the 3$\sp\prime$ untranslated region of a gene encoding a serine/threonine kinase (DMK). We have produced a polyclonal rabbit antibody preparation against a fusion protein encoding C-terminal amino acids 471-629 of the human DMK gene. This antibody specifically detects products of both full length and truncated human DMK genes expressed in bacteria and in insect cells. On immunoblots, we observed protein species of $\sim$74 and 82 kDa in human and rodent cardiac muscle and skeletal muscle, as well as rodent ependyma and choroid plexus. By immunofluorescence, DMK was found to localize postsynaptically at the neuromuscular junction of skeletal muscle, at intercalated discs of cardiac tissue and at the apical membrane of the ependyma and within the choroid plexus. We have also detected 2-3 species ($\sim$45-50 kDa) in brain tissue. Neuroanatomical evidence suggests synaptic localization for DMK in rodent cerebellum, hippocampus, midbrain and medulla. These results indicate that DMK may have a role in intercellular communication. Finally, we have demonstrated that DMK is present in adult and congenital DM tissues and that its distribution is no different than that observed in normal controls.

Year: 1990
Subjects: subject: Health Sciences, Audiology.

description: In order to identify neurophysiological correlates of the changes in the level of conciousness associated with general anesthesia, the 40 Hz auditory steady-state response (ASSR), the electroencephalogram (EEG) and the N1 and P3 components of the transient auditory evoked potential were recorded before anesthesia (pre-induction), at the onset of anesthesia (induction), during surgical anesthesia, at the time of emergence and during recovery from anesthesia. The amplitude of the ASSR, was reduced significantly during late induction and dropped below noise levels during surgical anesthesia. It increased during emergence and further increased during recovery although the amplitude during recovery was significantly less than pre-induction values. Total EEG power increased significantly after induction. The EEG median frequency and 95% quantile frequency decreased significantly during surgery and increased significantly during emergence. Muscle artifacts could account for many of the EEG changes. The results for the transient auditory evoked potential indicated that, except during emergence, detection was associated with clear N1 and P3 waves whereas undetection was not. The lack of either N1 and P3 for detection during emergence perhaps occurred because the patients were not yet fully conscious. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

description: De nature qualitative interprétative, cette recherche doctorale porte sur le travail du corps dans la formation de l’acteur professionnel offerte à l’École supérieure de théâtre de l’Université du Québec à Montréal. Prenant la forme d’une étude de cas multiples, elle visait à mieux comprendre le travail du corps et les expériences de formation qui y étaient associées dans le cadre de cinq cours de voix, d’interprétation et de mouvement. Cette recherche s’est déroulée sur l’ensemble de l’année scolaire 2013-2014. Elle a eu pour principaux participants les professeurs Pascal Belleau, Martine Beaulne, Francine Alepin, Huy Phong Doan et Mélanie Demers qui ont offert les cinq cours à l’étude. À ceux-ci se sont ajoutées d’autres personnes aux différents statuts au sein de l’École supérieure de théâtre dont la participation a permis d’approfondir de manière complémentaire la compréhension de la formation liée au travail du corps dans ce programme et dans les différents contextes de cours étudiés. Au total, 30 participants ont ainsi pris part à l’étude. Celle-ci avait pour principales stratégies de collecte de données les entrevues individuelles semi-dirigées, l’observation participante et la prise de notes, les groupes de discussion, l’usage de matériel écrit divers et le journal de bord. L’analyse, appuyée sur le concept d’expérience (Dewey, 1934/2005) et la théorie de l’activité (Engeström, 1987, 2000), a conduit à six chapitres de résultats. Les cinq premiers chapitres présentent et discutent de la formation liée au travail du corps en fonction de chaque contexte de cours étudié. S’ensuit un sixième chapitre qui établit des liens entre les résultats issus de l’étude de ces cinq différents cours. Dans ce dernier chapitre de résultats, l’analyse des cas multiples fait émerger une nouvelle question de recherche qui conduit à dégager une finalité commune au travail du corps dans les différents cours de voix, d’interprétation et de mouvement étudiés. La conclusion permet de revenir sur le but et les questions de recherche, d’en faire ressortir les contributions et les limites, puis d’esquisser d’autres perspectives d’études qui seraient bénéfiques à l’accroissement des connaissances portant sur le travail du corps dans la formation de l’acteur.

description: Between 1869 and 1918, 845 people were able to prove up a homestead claim in Brown County, Minnesota. Among these successful homesteaders were 42 women, and among those women were 9 Norwegian immigrants. At the juncture of significant US policy change, including the passage of the Homestead Act (1862) and the Minnesota Women’s Property Act (1869), and the forceful dispossession of the Dakota people from Minnesota after the US-Dakota War of 1862, these Norwegian women were disproportionately taking advantage of land-taking through the form of homesteading. Through an exploration of Norwegian land practices, Norwegian immigration and settlement, and Norwegian women’s homestead claims in Brown County, this research investigates the intersection of gender, farm labor, and land rights to understand what motivated Norwegian immigrant women to homestead, prove up their claims, and create long-lasting family farm legacies in southcentral Minnesota.

Multi-electrode array for high resolution impedance-based analysis of adherent cell cultures
Creators: name: Beguin, Steve
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: The research project was directed towards the development of a microscale multi electrode array device as a tool that probes electrical properties (i.e. the impedance spectrum) of adherent single cells to identify their biological characteristics. The existing models of the cell impedance were refined to obtain a parametric model of the single cell adherent on a microelectrode. The simulations allowed to find corresponding biological markers from the impedance spectrum acquired by culturing mouse cells and human stem cells in the device. Direct applications range from fundamental research in cell biology, to applied medical diagnostics, to cell farms for cell therapies.
The cause relation in biopharmaceutical corpora: English and French patterns for knowledge extraction.
Creators: name: Marshman, Elizabeth.
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Language, Linguistics.

description: One of the most important aspects of a terminologist's work is extracting conceptual information about terms from texts. Because this task is so time-consuming, researchers are trying to develop tools which will extract conceptual information semi-automatically. Many of these tools are based on the use of linguistic indicators called knowledge patterns. This thesis aims to identify some knowledge patterns in English and French which indicate the conceptual relation of cause and effect. This relation, though not as widely studied as those of generic to specific or part to whole, is critical in many subject fields including medicine and pharmaceuticals. For this reason, our research focuses on biopharmaceutical texts. Our methodology involved building representative corpora in English and French, and then identifying possible knowledge patterns. The precision of the identified patterns was calculated in order to predict their possible effectiveness for semi-automatic knowledge extraction. We discuss some of the issues observed in the process of identifying these patterns, and those which might affect the subsequent implementation of the patterns for semi-automatic knowledge extraction. A brief interlinguistic comparison of the English and French patterns identified is also included. Our research shows that the subject field of biopharmaceuticals contains many potentially productive knowledge patterns for the cause relation. However, there are also many issues which must be taken into account when identifying patterns and developing knowledge extraction tools.

description: This thesis describes efforts to develop a synthesis of the defucogilvocarcin M carbon skeleton utilizing either an intramolecular or an intermolecular Diels-Alder cycloaddition as the key step. Chapters 1 and 2 provide background information regarding the isolation, biological activity, mechanism of action and previous syntheses of the gilvocarcins. Chapter 3 provides a retrosynthetic analysis of defucogilvocarcin M and describes the intramolecular and the intermolecular Diels-Alder approaches to its synthesis. Chapter 4 gives a brief review of the o-quinodimethane chemistry central to the proposed synthesis. Chapter 5 describes a photochemical synthesis of 1,4-dioxygenated-o-quinodimethanes. The o-QDMs were obtained by irradiation of 2-(methoxymethyl)-benzaldehyde (11) and the 2-(acyloxymethyl)benzaldehydes 14a-c. The intermolecular Diels-Alder reactivity, regioselectivity and stereoselectivity of the photoenols was ascertained by reaction with several dienophiles of varying reactivity. The catalytic effect of LiCl on the cycloaddition of the photoenol derived from 2-(benzoyloxymethyl)benzaldehyde (14b) and methyl acrylate was briefly examined. Marginal effects were also observed with several other dienophiles. 2-(benzoyloxymethyl)benzaldehyde (14b) was found to dimerize to compound 37 when irradiated in the absence of a reactive dienophile, analogous to the known photochemical behavior of o-tolualdehyde. Two model systems, 14d and 14e, designed to test the feasibility of an intramolecular photochemical Diels-Alder cycloaddition were synthesized. Photoenolization of the compounds, however, failed to afford cycloaddition products. Chapter 6 describes the results obtained from a re-evaluation of the photochemistry of 2-methylbenzoyl cyanide (1a). The latter compound as well as a number of other acyl cyanides (1b-e) were found to act as carbonyl heterodienophiles in Diels-Alder reactions with photochemically (1a-c) and thermally (8a,b) generated o-quinodimethanes. Several dimerizations and mixed cycloadditions were studied which led to highly substituted 3,4-dihydro-3-cyano-1H-2-benzopyran-1-ones. Photoenols derived from aroyl cyanides 1a and 1b were found to react with SO$\sb2$ to give 1-Hydroxy-1-cyano-1,3-dihydrobenzo (c) thiophene 2,2-Dioxides 19 and 20. Chapter 7 describes efforts to utilize the acyl cyanide cycloadducts as synthetic intermediates. A versatile isoquinolone synthesis was developed which involved reacting the acyl cyanide cycloadducts 1 and 8 with alkyl amines then cyclizing the amides obtained in aqueous acetic acid. Two cycloadducts (1 and 8) were converted to isocoumarins by dehydrocyanation with KtBuO in THF.

description: Epilepsy, a neurological disease characterized by recurrent seizures, is a result of increased excitatory signaling in the brain. While there are antiseizure medications available, a third of epilepsy patients experience a resistance to those treatments. Researchers have turned to investigating non-pharmacological therapies for drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE). Viral delivery of a signaling protein Semaphorin 4D (Sema4D) into the mouse hippocampus (IHC injection) has been previously shown to increase inhibitory tone and decrease seizure burden. This study investigates the efficacy of an intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection method of the Sema4D virus in reducing seizure severity in mice. ICV delivery, where the virus is stereotactically injected into the lateral ventricles, is a more traceable and translatable method for viral delivery in humans. Seizures were analyzed in adult C57BL/6 mice injected with the Sema4D viral construct or a saline-vehicle control using an electroencephalograph (EEG) and a kainic acid seizure paradigm. Mice treated with Sema4D had significantly delayed onset of status epilepticus (SE)—a seizure or a period of successive seizures that lasts longer than 5 minutes. Nevertheless, no other seizure metric was found to be significantly different between control and Sema4D-treated mice. This indicates that ICV-delivery of Sema4D, while a less invasive injection method that can prolong latency to SE, might not be the most effective in alleviating seizure severity; more research must be done to further elucidate the efficacy of the ICV-delivery of Sema4D.

description: Detection of leaks of fugitive greenhouse gases (GHGs) from landfills and natural gas infrastructure is critical for not only their safe operation but also for protecting the environment. Current inspection practices involve moving a methane detector within the target area by a person or vehicle. This procedure is dangerous, time consuming, labor intensive and above all unavailable when access to the desired area is limited. Remote sensing by an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) equipped with a methane detector is a cost-effective and fast method for methane detection and monitoring, especially for vast and remote areas. This paper describes the integration of an off-the-shelf laser-based methane detector into a multi-rotor UAV and demonstrates its efficacy in generating an aerial methane concentration map of a landfill. The UAV flies a preset flight path measuring methane concentrations in a vertical air column between the UAV and the ground surface. Measurements were taken at 10 Hz giving a typical distance between measurements of 0.2 m when flying at 2 m/s. The UAV was set to fly at 25 to 30 m above the ground. We conclude that besides its utility in landfill monitoring, the proposed method is ready for other environmental applications as well as the inspection of natural gas infrastructure that can release methane with much higher concentrations.

description: Background Bacterial toxins have evolved to an effective therapeutic option for cancer therapy. The Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin (CPE) is a pore- forming toxin with selective cytotoxicity. The transmembrane tight junction proteins claudin-3 and -4 are known high affinity CPE receptors. Their expression is highly upregulated in human cancers, including breast, ovarian and colon carcinoma. CPE binding to claudins triggers membrane pore complex formation, which leads to rapid cell death. Previous studies demonstrated the anti-tumoral effect of treatment with recombinant CPE-protein. Our approach aimed at evaluation of a selective and targeted cancer gene therapy of claudin-3- and/or claudin-4- expressing colon carcinoma in vitro and in vivo by using translation optimized CPE expressing vector. Methods In this study the recombinant CPE and a translation optimized CPE expressing vector (optCPE) was used for targeted gene therapy of claudin-3 and/or -4 overexpressing colon cancer cell lines. All experiments were performed in the human SW480, SW620, HCT116, CaCo-2 and HT-29 colon cancer and the isogenic Sk-Mel5 and Sk-Mel5 Cldn-3-YFP melanoma cell lines. Claudin expression analysis was done at protein and mRNA level, which was confirmed by immunohistochemistry. The CPE induced cytotoxicity was analyzed by the MTT cytotoxicity assay. In addition patient derived colon carcinoma xenografts (PDX) were characterized and used for the intratumoral in vivo gene transfer of the optCPE expressing vector in PDX bearing nude mice. Results Claudin-3 and -4 overexpressing colon carcinoma lines showed high sensitivity towards both recCPE application and optCPE gene transfer. The positive correlation between CPE cytotoxicity and level of claudin expression was demonstrated. Transfection of optCPE led to targeted, rapid cytotoxic effects such as membrane disruption and necrosis in claudin overexpressing cells. The intratumoral optCPE in vivo gene transfer led to tumor growth inhibition in colon carcinoma PDX bearing mice in association with massive necrosis due to the intratumoral optCPE expression. Conclusions This novel approach demonstrates that optCPE gene transfer represents a promising and efficient therapeutic option for a targeted suicide gene therapy of claudin-3 and/or claudin-4 overexpressing colon carcinomas, leading to rapid and effective tumor cell killing in vitro and in vivo.

A study of the single-ended loop characterization for special services.

Subjects: subject: Engineering, Electronics and Electrical.

description: The objective of this research is to propose an approach for single-ended loop characterization by which the insertion loss (IL) over a subscriber loop can be estimated to within $\pm$1 dB accuracy based on some measurements from the central office (CO) only. The estimation of transmission loss at 1 kHz is an essential requirement for both basic plain old telephone services (POTS) and special services provided by telephone companies (telcos). The loss at 1 kHz is used as an indication of the quality of the connection. To maintain the quality (loss) of the subscriber loops at a certain level, skilled technicians are conventionally needed to perform two-ended loss measurements at both the customer end and the central office. The latest methods used in the industry require large but unreliable data base. These result in substantial expenses to telephone companies. Our objective is to replace these by an automatic procedure. Estimation of the loop loss based on measurements from the Central Office only is complicated by the fact that the customer's terminal set may be one of a wide variety of terminations and will not, in general, be known to the operating companies. The approach proposed in this thesis is intended for voice band special services for Carrier Serving Area (CSA) loops in digital loop carrier (DLC) systems. The problem is formulated as that of modelling a two port network using single port measurements. The parameters of the model representing the subscriber loop are determined so as to minimize the input impedance error at several frequencies for arbitrary customer's termination. It is shown that using this model for insertion loss estimation results in errors within the required 1dB at 1 kHz. Next, a simple algorithm is proposed to use the same parameters in the model to determine insertion loss at higher voice frequencies. Finally, effect of error in input impedance measurement on loss estimation is studied.
