description: The need for data sharing and rapid data access has become central with the rise of collaborative research in many disciplines. Several data sharing approaches have emerged for consumer use cases that primarily need an easy way to share files using web browsers. However, these approaches are not well suited to the particular demands of large-scale data sharing for computational research. Whereas consumer approaches primarily support manual user interfaces to add and remove files, the huge number of files that can be generated during and after a large-scale computation job make manual data sharing interfaces impractical. Instead, these tasks require mechanisms that integrate into computation workflows to automatically post files during and after computation jobs. Furthermore, scientific data sharing requires additional metadata and descriptive information that characterizes shared data to record job and compute platform characteristics, input data, job parameters, job completion status, and other record-keeping required to document the trajectory of computational research. Without these features, consumer data sharing approaches are not well suited for computational science.

Locus Coeruleus Neurons in Autonomic Regulation of Breathing: Insight from a Mouse Model of Rett Syndrome
Creators: name: Zhang, Xiaoli
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2010

description: Patients with Rett Syndrome (RTT) show severe breathing disorders in addition to other neuropathological features, contributing to the high incidence of sudden unexplained death and abnormal brain development. However, the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying the breathing disorders are still unknown. Recent studies indicate that the dysfunction of brainstem norepinephrine (NE) systems are closely associated with breathing disorders in RTT patients as well as its mice model, the Mecp2-null (Mecp2???/Y) mice. This as well as the fact the major group of NE-ergic neurons in the locus coeruleus (LC) is CO2 chemosensitive suggests that the breathing disorders in RTT may be related these LC neurons. To test this hypothesis, we took a multidisciplinary approach and systematically studied these neurons using molecular biology, in-vitro brain slices, acutely dissociated neurons, immunocytochemistry, and whole-body plethysmograph. To facilitate the electrophysiological studies, we developed a new strain of transgenic mice with GFP expression selectively in the LC neurons of both WT and Mecp2???/Y mice. Breathing activity of the Mecp2???/Y mice showed selective disruptions in responses to mild hypercapnia. The defect was alleviated with the NE uptake blocker desipramine, suggesting the involvement of NE in central CO2 chemosensitivity. In the LC region, the expressions of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and dopamine beta-hydroxylase (DBH) at both protein and mRNA levels reduced by ~50% in Mecp2???/Y mice. No evidence was found for selective deficiency in TH- or DBH-containing neurons in Mecp2???/Y mice, and no major loss of NE-ergic LC cells were found, indicating that the NE defect is likely to result from deficient expression of biosynthetic enzymes rather than a loss of neurons in the LC. Several intrinsic membrane properties were abnormal in Mecp2???/Y LC neurons in comparison to wild type cells, including stronger inward rectification, shorter time constant, extended action potential duration, smaller amplitude of medium afterhyperpolarization (AHP) and over-expression of fast AHP. These abnormalities seem to be associated with the altered K+ and Na+ currents. Most importantly, Mecp2???/Y LC neurons displayed defective CO2 chemosensitivity in agreement of in vivo CO2 response, likely due to excessive expression of the homomeric Kir4.1 channel. Thus, it seems that the global effect of MeCP2 on the A6 NE system contributes to the impaired systemic CO2 response as well as the breathing irregularities in Mecp2???/Y mice. Such an alteration allowed CO2 to be detected only when hypercapnia became severe, leading to periodical hyper- and hypoventilation. These findings not only provide a novel etiology for the breathing disturbances of Mecp2???/Y mice but also show direct evidence for the first time on a molecular mechanism for the central CO2 chemosensitivity.
Development of a Novel Protein Based MRI Contrast Agent for Molecular Imaging of Prostate Cancer
Creators: name: Wei, Lixia
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2010

description: Molecular Imaging provides new aspects in cancer diagnosis and treatment. With the ap-plication of imaging and biological techniques, molecular imaging can monitor molecular and cellular changes of different diseases. To interpret the mechanism of disease, more and more at-tention is focused on the development of new probes for molecular imaging. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a powerful, non-invasive clinical diagnostic tool with high spatial resolution without the limitation of the depth of tissues. Applications of MRI contrast agents can amply the MRI signal during imaging. Many studies have been devoted to developing targeted MR contrast agents. Proteins and peptides have been widely used for target-ing cancer cells in cancer diagnosis and treatments. GRP, gastrin-releasing peptide, is one of a well-characterized group of mammalian bombesin-like peptides. GRP acts through its cell surface receptors, GRP receptor (GRPR). It has been reported that there is a high density of GRP receptors in the majority of prostate carci-noma. In contrast, the GRPRs are not highly expressed in normal cells of most tissues. Thus, this tumor specific expression pattern provides an advantage for cancer targeting. A novel class of MRI contrast agent was designed by adding the Gd3+ binding sites into a stable host protein, the domain 1 of rat CD2. Due to the unique features of the designed metal binding properties, the protein contrast agent (ProCA1) exhibits more than 10-fold enhanced MRI relaxivity compared to that of the more commonly used Gd-DTPA. The high relaxivity of the designed protein contrast agent largely overcomes the major barrier of low sensitivity of MRI techniques. A peptide of ten amino acids from the C-terminal of GRP was grafted onto ProCA1. GRP-grafted protein contrast agents (ProCA1.GRPs) showed the targeting capability to the GRPRs which are over-expressed on prostate cancer cells. Cell MRI Imaging demonstrated that ProCA1.GRP(52) grafted between Lys51 and Ser52 had better targeting capability than C-terminal one. Administration of ProCA1.GRP into xenograft tumor model enhances the contrast in the GRPR+ prostate tumor under MRI and optical imaging. Study demonstrated a potential application for disease marker targeted MR imaging by using our developed protein contrast agent.

description: Um portal de periódicos, além da função de agregar informações, aplicações e serviços relevantes aos usuários, realiza o filtro de várias informações por meio de uma interface única, garantindo a recuperação de metadados de forma ágil e correta. Além disso, visa padronizar esses metadados por meio da organização do conhecimento produzido por pesquisadores e interessados de diversas áreas em publicar artigos e trabalhos científicos nesse tipo de recurso informacional. Pensando dessa forma, o Portal de Periódicos Eletrônicos Científicos da UNICAMP (PPEC), congrega em única plataforma, a reunião dos seus 27 títulos de periódicos editados e produzidos no âmbito da UNICAMP focado na recuperação e visibilidade da produção na esfera internacional, tendo em vista a inclusão de mais 2 títulos. Tem como objetivos principais garantir e apoiar na qualificação e visibilidade dos periódicos científicos vinculados aos institutos, faculdades, centros, núcleos de pesquisa e órgãos complementares, arbitrados por pares e institucionalmente ligados à UNICAMP de livre acesso. O PPEC é considerado como um portal indexador restrito, pois permite a vinculação com o protocolo OAI-PMH, oferecendo mecanismos de busca e metadados padrão Dublin Core. Além de ser um Portal indexador, ele também atribui e valida o DOI para os artigos dos periódicos da UNICAMP, pois a mesma está afiliada à CrossRef/PILA, por meio da ABEC. Ainda assim, o Portal mantém-se preservado digitalmente por meio da Rede de Serviços de Preservação Digital Cariniana, através do termo de cooperação institucional firmado entre o IBICT e a UNICAMP, que garante a preservação dos seus dados digitais pelo sistema LOCKSS. A inauguração do PPEC ocorreu em dezembro de 2015. Espera-se que o PPEC consolide-se em um modelo a ser seguido de organização da informação, de forma prática e simples.
Defining the Role of Rubella Virus Nonstructural Proteins in Replication Complex Assembly and Fiber Formation
Creators: name: Matthews, Jason
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2010

description: Rubella virus (RUBV) is a positive-strand RNA virus and the causative agent of rubella and congenital rubella syndrome in humans. To replicate its RNA, RUBV forms membrane-associated spherules, called replication complexes (RCs), the induction of which requires the two virus nonstructural proteins (NSPs), P150 and P90. Interestingly, late in infection the NSPs form a unique cytoplasmic fiber network, similar in appearance to microtubules, the function of which is unknown. Little is known about the roles of the RUBV NSPs in forming these structures and, to this end, we scrutinized the behavior and biochemical properties of the NSPs, both after expression from plasmids and during RUBV infection, using mutagenic, biochemical and pharmacological approaches. The following findings were made: First, the precursor from which P150 and P90 are produced via an embedded protease at the C-terminus of P150, called P200, was required for initial targeting to cytoplasmic foci. P150 was the determinant of fiber formation and while P90 had no specific targeting sequences on its own, P90 sequences within P200 were required for correct targeting of P200. An alpha-helix at the N-terminus of P150 was also important for correct targeting of P200, putatively by mediating the interaction between P150 and P90 within the precursor. Second, the membrane binding domain within the NSPs was within the N-terminal ~450 amino acids of P150. P150 is in an exceptionally tight association with membranes. Third, both the N- and C-terminal regions of P150, and specifically long alpha-helices within these regions, are necessary for fiber formation. Fiber formation relied on an intact microtubule network, but neither microtubule repositioning nor dynamic movement along microtubules was required. Additionally, it was shown that microtubules were not necessary in RUBV replication. Finally, P150 fibers were not required for RUBV replication; however, it was shown that the fibers are likely important in formation of cytoplasmic extensions through which a novel system of cell-to-cell transport of viral RNA in the absence of virus particles appears to occur.

description: Physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models are scientific methods used to predict veterinary drug residues that may occur in food-producing animals, and which have powerful extrapolation ability. Quinocetone (QCT) and mequindox (MEQ) are widely used in China for the prevention of bacterial infections and promoting animal growth, but their abuse causes a potential threat to human health. In this study, a flow-limited PBPK model was developed to simulate simultaneously residue depletion of QCT and its marker residue dideoxyquinocetone (DQCT) in pigs. The model included compartments for blood, liver, kidney, muscle and fat and an extra compartment representing the other tissues. Physiological parameters were obtained from the literature. Plasma protein binding rates, renal clearances and tissue/plasma partition coefficients were determined by in vitro and in vivo experiments. The model was calibrated and validated with several pharmacokinetic and residue-depletion datasets from the literature. Sensitivity analysis and Monte Carlo simulations were incorporated into the PBPK model to estimate individual variation of residual concentrations. The PBPK model for MEQ, the congener compound of QCT, was built through cross-compound extrapolation based on the model for QCT. The QCT model accurately predicted the concentrations of QCT and DQCT in various tissues at most time points, especially the later time points. Correlation coefficients between predicted and measured values for all tissues were greater than 0.9. Monte Carlo simulations showed excellent consistency between estimated concentration distributions and measured data points. The extrapolation model also showed good predictive power. The present models contribute to improve the residue monitoring systems of QCT and MEQ, and provide evidence of the usefulness of PBPK model extrapolation for the same kinds of compounds.

description: In the context of the debate on the relationship between EU and international law, it has been observed in the literature that the Court's approach to international law seems to have shifted over time. It has been argued that, although in its earlier case-law the Court seemed to have adopted a friendly and open attitude towards international law, more recent case-law evidences a more reserved, inward-looking attitude and a tendency to eschew engagement therewith. In this context, the Court's judgment in Front Polisario is highly relevant since the Court relied heavily on international rules on treaty interpretation and, thus, the judgment provides important insights into how the Court treats international law in its practice. This Article discusses the findings of the Court and argues that the Court's reliance on international law was artificial and selective. The Article concludes by arguing that, ultimately, the Front Polisario judgment lends evidentiary force to critical voices in the literature that have casted doubt on the image of the EU, as evidenced by the jurisprudence of its principal judicial organ, as an actor maintaining a distinctive commitment to international law.

description: This article considers nonparametric and semiparametric estimation and inference of the effects of a covariate, either discrete or continuous, on the conditional distribution of a response outcome. It also proposes various uniform tests following estimation. This type of analysis is useful in situations where the econometrician or policy-maker is interested in knowing the effect of a variable or policy on the whole distribution of the response outcome conditional on covariates and is not willing to make parametric functional form assumptions. Monte Carlo experiments show that the proposed estimators and tests are well-behaved in small samples. The empirical section studies the effect of minimum wage hikes on household labor earnings. It is found that the minimum wage has a heterogenous impact on household earnings in the U.S. and that small hikes in the minimum wage are more effective in improving the household earnings distribution.

description: We use extreme value theory methods to infer conventionally unobservable connections between financial institutions from joint extreme movements in credit default swap spreads and equity returns. Estimated pairwise co-crash probabilities identify significant connections among up to 186 financial institutions prior to the crisis of 2007/2008. Financial institutions that were very central prior to the crisis were more likely to be bailed out during the crisis or receive the status of systemically important institutions. This result remains intact also after controlling for indicators of too-big-to-fail concerns, systemic, systematic, and idiosyncratic risks. Both credit default swap (CDS)-based and equity-based connections are significant predictors of bailouts. Supplementary materials for this article are available online.

description: Fibers resulting from pulping of wood are negatively charged by nature. This charge might be reversed by chemical modification for different applications. In this study, different options to determine the degree of substitution (DS) with cationic groups introduced using 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride, a common cationization reagent, are compared. Classical analytical methods for this purpose include elemental analysis, which is unspecific, and titration, which is sensitive toward impurities and highly elaborate. These are complemented by fast and robust approaches based on infrared spectroscopy or thermogravimetric analysis. The absorption increase at 1480 cm−1 is specific for the introduced R-NMe3 and linearly correlated with the DS. For bleached Kraft pulps, cationization splits the thermal degradation of cellulose in two phases, their ratio being roughly proportional to the DS. Both methods require virtually no sample preparation. Infrared spectroscopy is particularly easy to apply and allows a quantification of pulp cationization in short time.

description: The mythic fiction and urban fantasy genres take and adjust old legends to create significant meaning for their teen readers. Although topically quite different, thematic similarity at the core of these tales highlights a captivation with these central ideas. A comparison of twelve contemporary young adult novels with historical folk and fairy lore from Ireland and Scotland illustrates that these genres, through the modification of traditional folklore into contemporary literature, appeal to a current YA audience through several key factors.This is an Accepted Manuscript of an article published by Taylor & Francis in New Review of Children's Literature and Librarianship on 27/09/2016, available online: http://www.tandfonline.com/eprint/zNfZd4Jfx67K4DRJjDKV/full

description: The present study reports the in-depth analysis of the gelatin–carboxymethyl chitosan hydrogels. The composite system formed phase-separated hydrogels, which is confirmed by scanning electron microscopy. The swelling of the carboxymethyl chitosan-containing hydrogels was lower than the gelatin hydrogel. Macroscale deformation study using a static mechanical tester indicated a viscoelastic nature of the hydrogels. A decrease in the impedance of the hydrogels was observed with an increase in the carboxymethyl chitosan content. The drug release from the hydrogels was predominantly Fickian diffusion mediated and was released in its active form. The results suggested the potential use of the hydrogels as drug delivery matrices.

description: The present study reports the in-depth analysis of the gelatin- carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC) hydrogels. The composite system formed phase-separated hydrogels, confirmed by scanning electron microscopy. The swelling of the CMC containing hydrogels was lower than the gelatin hydrogel. Macro-scale deformation study using a static mechanical tester indicated viscoelastic nature of the hydrogels. A decrease in the impedance of the hydrogels was observed with the increase in the CMC content. The drug release from the hydrogels was predominantly Fickian diffusion mediated and was released in its active form. The results suggested the potential use of the hydrogels as drug delivery matrices.

description: Insight into measures of peakedness, heavy-tailedness, and kurtosis can be gained by studying Ruppert’s ratios of interquantile ranges. They are not only monotone in Horn’s measure of peakedness when applied to the central portion of the population, but also monotone in the practical tail-index of Morgenthaler and Tukey, when applied to the tails. Non-parametric confidence intervals are found for Ruppert’s ratios, and sample sizes required to obtain such intervals for a pre-specified relative width and level are provided. In addition, the empirical power of distribution-free tests for peakedness and bimodality are found for some symmetric distributions.

description: Background/Aims: Alpha-carotene is a provitamin A carotenoid present in fruits and vegetables. Higher serum concentrations of α-carotene have been associated with lower risk of cancer and all-cause mortality. Previous studies have suggested that genetic variants influence serum concentrations of provitamin A carotenoids, but to date no variants have been robustly associated with serum α-carotene concentrations. The aim of this study was to identify genetic associations with serum α-carotene concentrations using the genome-wide association study (GWAS) approach. Methods: A GWAS of serum α-carotene concentrations was conducted in 433 Old Order Amish adults who had consumed a 6-day controlled diet. Linear regression models adjusting for age, gender, and family structure were utilized to evaluate associations between genetic variants and serum α-carotene concentrations. Results: Genome-wide significant associations with α-carotene concentrations were observed for loci on chromosome 1q41 between the genes CAPN2 and CAPN8 (rs12137025, p = 3.55 × 10-8), chromosome 2p21 in PRKCE (rs2594495, p = 1.01 × 10-8), and chromosome 4q34 (rs17830069, p = 2.89 × 10-8). Conclusions: We identified 3 novel loci associated with serum α-carotene concentrations among a population that consumed a controlled diet. While replication is necessary, the CAPN2/CAPN8 locus provides compelling evidence for an association with serum α-carotene concentrations and may suggest a relationship with the development and progression of cancers.

description: Сократ заметил, что «Чудо — начало мудрости!» — «Там, где живо воображение, чудо полностью живо. Когда живо воображение, возможность пробуждается, потому что воображение — великий друг возможности. Возможности всегда интереснее фактов. Мы не должны хмуриться из-за фактов, но наш мир переполнен ими». Джон О'Донохью
Две тысячи лет назад Аристотель заметил о стремлении к пониманию и знанию, когда он заявил: «Все люди желают знания!» — стремление к смыслу, движимое глубоким чувством благоговения и удивления перед «Всем», миром и вселенной. Невысказанный аргумент Сократа заключается в том, что удивление, любопытство и воображение тесно связаны с мудростью. Эйнштейн заметил, что воображение было абсолютно критически важным для всех его открытий.
