The molecular and phenotypic signature of human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 infected clones and their malignant potential
Creators: name: Kagdi, Huseini Hatimbhai
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: Aggressive Adult T cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL), a human T lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) –associated disease, has a poor prognosis. There is an urgent need for effective prevention and treatment. Aggressive ATL develops in patients with non-malignant HTLV-1 (asymptomatic carriers (AC) and patients with HTLV-1 associated myelopathy (HAM)) over decades with evolution from high proviral load (PVL) and non-dominant clonal growth through emergence of dominant clones and indolent to aggressive ATL. The aim of these studies was to characterize the phenotypic and molecular signature of cells contributing to in vivo HTLV-1 infected clones in these clinical states. A retrospective study of peripheral blood samples from ten HTLV-1-uninfected subjects (UI), 54 patients with non-malignant HTLV-1 infection and 22 with ATL was performed. Clonality analysis was performed by LMPCR-HTS and TCR sequencing, phenotype analysis (immunophenotype and cytokine production) by flow cytometry (protein expression) and whole transcriptome analysis (mRNA expression). The cells of the dominant clone in all patients with ATL had CD4+CCR4+CD26-CD7- immunophenotype (putative ATL cells) and produce little or no cytokines. ATL cells had a CCR7+CD127-Ki67hi immunophenotype in aggressive disease and were CCR7-CD127+Ki67lo in indolent disease. Non-dominant infected clones containing cells with an ATL immunophenotype (‘ATL-like’ cells) were present in patients with non-malignant HTLV-1 infection as well as in ATL. ‘ATL-like’ cells were CCR7-CD127+Ki67lo and cytokine producing with higher anti- and lower pro-inflammatory cytokines compared to non ‘ATL-like’ cells (predominantly un-infected cells). ‘ATL-like’ cells are mainly responsible for the differential plasma cytokine profile seen in patients with non-malignant HTLV-1 infection as well as in ATL. In conclusion, non-malignant HTLV-1 infection with high PVL leads to increased frequency of non-dominant clones containing cytokine producing ‘ATL-like’ cells. Indolent ATL leads to the emergence of a dominant clone with selective growth of non-cytokine producing ATL cells whilst transformation to aggressive ATL leads to ATL cells acquiring a higher proliferative and infiltrative phenotype.

description: We find a new supersymmetric solution of type IIB supergravity which is the uplift of the GPPZ solution of maximal SO$(6)$ gauged supergravity in five dimensions. This background is expected to be holographically dual to an $\mathcal{N}=1^{*}$ supersymmetric mass deformation of four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM. The ten-dimensional solution is singular in the region corresponding to the IR regime of the dual gauge theory and we discuss the physics of the singularity in some detail.

Lubrication of the razor cartridge/skin contact
Creators: name: Whitehouse, Suzanna
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2017

description: The razor cartridge/skin contact is complex due to cartridge materials and geometry, and the mechanical properties of skin. It is thought that the ideal shaving lubricant is able to flow through the guard without being wiped away (so that a sufficient amount of lubricant can reach the blades) and resist starvation under multiple, successive razor cartridge components. The objectives of the research were to: understand the friction properties of shaving fluids in a model cartridge/skin contact, measure lubricant flow through the razor cartridge contact, and assess the suitability of PEO as a shaving lubricant. Friction tests for a hard/compliant contact were carried out in conditions representative of shaving. These included improvements to surface chemistry with artificial sebum. Pure sliding tests produced variable results with poor repeatability. For a sliding/rolling contact, trends between lubricants were identified. Load, sliding speed, lubricant chemistry and surface chemistry were found to affect friction. A fluorescence technique was developed to measure razor cartridge film thickness and excellent image clarity was shown, with film thickness measurable for hard and compliant counterfaces. The lower measurable limit was 2 ± 0.4 µm (hard counterface) and 2 +3.1/-2 µm (compliant counterface). It was found that the guard and Lubrastrip maintain relatively thick and consistent lubricant films across the speed range, with minimum films formed at the blade cutting edges. Presence of the guard improved cartridge lubrication by stabilising film thickness across the blade cutting edges. Razor cartridge lubrication was found to operate in partially starved conditions, and replenishment mechanisms are discussed as well as the impact of contact conditions on cartridge film thickness. Evidence for viscoelastic effects were shown, and viscous and elastic effects were separated. Results have provided guidance on identifying a potential shaving lubricants, and recommendations have been made for further investigation and development of experimental methods.

description: We consider M-theory compactification on Calabi-Yau threefolds. The recently discovered connection between the BPS states of wrapped M2 branes and the topological string amplitudes on the threefold is used both as a tool to compute topological string amplitudes at higher genera as well as to unravel the degeneracies and quantum numbers of BPS states. Moduli spaces of $k$-fold symmetric products of the wrapped M2 brane play a crucial role. We also show that the topological string partition function is the Calabi-Yau version of the elliptic genus of the symmetric product of $K3$'s and use the macroscopic entropy of spinning black holes in 5 dimensions to obtain new predictions for the asymptotic growth of the topological string amplitudes at high genera.

The effect of organic friction modifiers on ZDDP tribofilm
Creators: name: Dawczyk, Joanna Urzula
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: In recent years a major concern in lubricant formulation has become the design of lubricants that can deliver very low friction and thus reduce energy consumption. This can be achieved in two main ways, by lowering the effective viscosity of lubricants and thus reducing hydrodynamic friction, and by reducing boundary friction through the use of friction modifier additives (FMs). Both approaches carry risk. Reducing lubricant viscosity can result in thinner lubricant films and this can lead to excessive wear, while some FM additives may inhibit the action of other lubricant additives present in a formulation. The aim of this thesis was to investigate the behaviour of one type of organic friction modifier, the Ethomeens, in rubbing tribological contacts, with respect to their effect on the widely-used antiwear additive zinc dialkyldithiophosphate (ZDDP). Of particular interest was to determine the extent to which Ethomeens reduce friction with ZDDP and to see whether they damage the protective antiwear films formed by ZDDPs. The tribofilm-forming ability and friction properties of a range of different types of ZDDP was studied. As in previous work, it was found that most ZDDPs rapidly form thick tribofilms with a pad-like structure on rubbed surfaces and these significantly increase friction in mixed/boundary lubrication. A new class of ZDDP was identified based on a predominantly tertiary alkyl structure. This forms tribofilms more rapidly that other ZDDPs but its films appear to be unstable and are lost during prolonged rubbing. Parallel study of the topography of ZDDP tribofilms using three different methods showed that ZDDP tribofilm topography is most reliably characterised using atomic force microscopy (AFM). 2 Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray near edge spectroscopy (XANES) were used to characterise ZDDP tribofilms. It was found that care must be taken in preparation of samples for TEM analysis since some commonly-used methods cause considerable damage to the films under study. Using TEM, the ZDDP film studied was found to be crystalline and, using XANES, to be composed primarily of zinc orthophosphate. The immersion of pre-formed ZDDP tribofilms in Ethomeen solutions produced an immediate reduction in boundary friction and also some loss of the ZDDP film. The extent of both of these effects was found to be strongly dependent on the molecular structure of the Ethomeen and in particular its number of ethoxy groups. Ethomeens with just two ethoxy groups gave a lower reduction in friction but more removal of the ZDDP tribofilm that those with 15 ethoxy groups. This is believed to result from the easier access of the Ethomeen with fewer ethoxy groups to the ZDDP tribofilm surface. Overall the study illustrates the need to balance carefully the competing roles of different lubricant additives in the design of low friction lubricants
Supercritical causal maps : geodesics and simple random walk

Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Probability (math.PR)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: We study the random planar maps obtained from supercritical Galton--Watson trees by adding the horizontal connections between successive vertices at each level. These are the hyperbolic analog of the maps studied by Curien, Hutchcroft and Nachmias in arXiv:1710.03137, and a natural model of random hyperbolic geometry. We first establish metric hyperbolicity properties of these maps: we show that they admit bi-infinite geodesics and satisfy a weak version of Gromov-hyperbolicity. We also study the simple random walk on these maps: we identify their Poisson boundary and, in the case where the underlying tree has no leaf, we prove that the random walk has positive speed. Some of the methods used here are robust, and allow us to obtain more general results about planar maps containing a supercritical Galton--Watson tree.

Monitoring conservation threats, interventions and impacts on wildlife in a Cambodian tropical forest
Creators: name: O'Kelly, Hannah
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2013

description: While there are many scientifically rigorous methods for monitoring wildlife populations and the threats that they face, they are often difficult to implement in tropical forest environments. In some cases traditional gold standard methodologies can be employed despite the inherent practical and theoretical challenges, but in other situations more novel approaches must be developed. In this thesis we investigate these issues within the context of a large protected area in Eastern Cambodia. The aims of this study were to; 1. Evaluate the status and trends of wild ungulate populations using distance sampling derived density estimates. 2. Develop and implement an approach to reliably estimate the detectability and abundance of wire snares, which currently represent the greatest threat to mammal populations within the area. 3. Quantify the association between snare abundance and a number of natural and anthropogenic factors hypothesised to influence snare placement. 4. Assess the utility of law enforcement records, and specifically catch-per-unit-effort (CPUE) indices derived from patrol data, as a tool for monitoring threats. I present rigorous density estimates for several key ungulate species, representing the first such data from the entire lower Mekong region. Whilst smaller ungulate populations appear to be stable, larger species are likely undergoing a decline. A sampling protocol was developed for surveying snares which balanced the requirements of statistical rigour against feasibility and efficiency of implementation in the field. The results of this survey were analysed using N-mixture models to produce detectability-corrected spatially explicit estimates of snare abundance. As predicted, forest type, proximity to settlements, and distance to the Vietnamese border were shown to be important determinants of snare abundance whereas the relationship between snaring levels and both patrol effort and wildlife densities was less clear. This study also demonstrated that while CPUE indices derived from patrol data can adequately reflect true levels of threat, their utility depends greatly on the quality of the patrol data, and on identifying the appropriate spatio-temporal scale at which to undertake the analysis.

Calabi-Yau Mirror Symmetry as a Gauge Theory Duality

Year: 1999
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We show that there are two different dualities of two dimensional gauge theories with N=(2,2) supersymmetry. One is basically a consequence of 3d mirror symmetry. The non-linear sigma model with Calabi-Yau target space on the Higgs branch of the gauge theory is mapped into an equivalent non-linear sigma model on the Coulomb branch of the dual theory, realizing a T-dual target space with torsion. The second duality is genuine to two dimensions. In addition to swapping Higgs and Coulomb branch it trades twisted for untwisted multiplets, implying a sign flip of the left moving U(1)_R charge. Succesive application of both dualities leads to geometric mirror symmetry for the target space Calabi-Yau.

Analogously to the (3+1)-dimensional counterpart, the holographic principle is satisfied in all flat and open universes.

The principle cannot be maintained, neither introducing negative pressure matter nor matter with highly unconventional equation of state.

description: RNAi screen to determine the contribution of genes in astrocytes to SCA3polyQ78-induced eye degeneration. Flies expressing SCA3polyQ78 in the eyes together with alrm-Gal4 were crossed to fly lines containing UAS-RNAi constructs to specifically knock down genes in astrocytes. Progeny expressing SCA3polyQ78 in the eyes with individual genes in astrocytes knocked down were analyzed for SCA3polyQ78-induced eye degeneration. The extent of degeneration was quantified and plotted in a table. The percentage of degeneration in SCA3polyQ78 eyes was set at 100% and the effect of RNAi-mediated gene knockdown in astrocytes was determined by the percentage of deviation from the control. The suppressors of degeneration (in which RNAi-induced downregulation of gene expression in astrocytes enhanced the SCA3polyQ78 phenotype, 60% or more deviation from the control) are shown in orange, the enhancers (40% or more deviation from the control) in purple.

description: In this paper we introduce the notion of tangent space TG of a (not necessary smooth) subgroup G of the diffeomorphism group Diff(M) of a compact manifold M. We prove that TG is a Lie subalgebra of the Lie algebra of smooth vector fields on M. The construction can be generalized to subgroups of any (finite or infinite dimensional) Lie groups. The tangent Lie algebra TG introduced this way is a generalization of the classical Lie algebra in the smooth cases. As a working example, we discuss in detail the tangent structure of the holonomy group and fibered holonomy group of Finsler manifolds.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions.

description: We investigate the problems of consistency and causality for the equations of motion describing massive spin two field in external gravitational and massless scalar dilaton fields in arbitrary spacetime dimension. From the field theoretical point of view we consider a general classical action with non-minimal couplings and find gravitational and dilaton background on which this action describes a theory consistent with the flat space limit. In the case of pure gravitational background all field components propagate causally. We show also that the massive spin two field can be consistently described in arbitrary background by means of the lagrangian representing an infinite series in the inverse mass. Within string theory we obtain equations of motion for the massive spin two field coupled to gravity from the requirement of quantum Weyl invariance of the corresponding two dimensional sigma-model. In the lowest order in $α'$ we demonstrate that these effective equations of motion coincide with consistent equations derived in field theory.

description: We present the uplift of the GPPZ solution of the five-dimensional maximal supergravity to ten dimensions. The five dimensional solution involves two real scalar fields, with one of them encoding holographically the (norm of the complex) supersymmetric ${\mathcal N}=1$ mass deformation and the other the real part of the gaugino condensate. We embed this solution in a consistent truncation of $D=5$ maximal supergravity which involves two complex scalars dual to the complex mass deformations and the complex gaugino condensate, and a $U(1)$ gauge field dual to the $U(1)_R$ current, and uplift it to ten dimensions. The ten dimensional solution is completely explicit, with all fields given in terms of elementary functions. The metric and the axion-dilaton agree with those of a partial uplift of the GPPZ flow by Pilch and Warner. We analyze the asymptotics and the singularity structure of the ten dimensional solution. The uplifted solution is singular, but the singularity is milder than that of the five dimensional solution, and there is conformal frame in which the metric is only singular at one point of $S^5$. We compare the asymptotics of the $10d$ solution with that of the Polchinski-Strassler and Freedman-Minahan solutions, and find agreement with Freedman-Minahan and disagreement with Polchinski-Strassler. In particular, we infer that while the Polchinski-Strassler $10d$ fields satisfy the correct boundary conditions, they do not solve the field equations near the boundary.

description: We prove a Mahoux-Mehta--type theorem for finite-volume partition functions of SU(N_c\geq 3) gauge theories coupled to fermions in the fundamental representation. The large-volume limit is taken with the constraint V << 1/m_π^4. The theorem allows one to express any k-point correlation function of the microscopic Dirac operator spectrum entirely in terms of the 2-point function. The sum over topological charges of the gauge fields can be explicitly performed for these k-point correlation functions. A connection to an integrable KP hierarchy, for which the finite-volume partition function is a $τ$-function, is pointed out. Relations between the effective partition functions for these theories in 3 and 4 dimensions are derived. We also compute analytically, and entirely from finite-volume partition functions, the microscopic spectral density of the Dirac operator in SU(N_c) gauge theories coupled to quenched fermions in the adjoint representation. The result coincides exactly with earlier results based on Random Matrix Theory.

To Investigate the role of Urinary Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) Measurement in the Assessment of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms in Women
Creators: name: Bhide, Alka Ashok
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2016

description: Interest in urinary biomarkers has increased over the last few years. Work on urinary neurotrophic factors, particularly nerve growth factor (NGF) has been investigated in lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Urinary brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is thought to be even more specific than NGF, as a marker of certain lower urinary tract conditions such as overactive bladder (OAB), stress urinary incontinence (SUI) or bladder pain syndrome/interstitial cystitis (BPS/IC). It has been proposed that measurement of urinary BNDF in LUTS is even better at discriminating between different conditions and can also give an indication of disease severity and treatment response. There are limited studies published looking at the role of urinary BDNF measurement in LUTS. The initial part of this thesis provides an overview of the basic science behind BDNF, the published data so far surrounding BDNF, a review of the anatomy and physiology of the lower urinary tract and an overview of methods used to assess LUTS in current clinical practice. The remainder of the thesis aims to determine whether urinary BDNF measurement is of any use in assessing women with LUTS initially determining the test-retest reliability of the measurement technique. I then go on to determine whether it is comparable to other assessment methods including patient centred questionnaires, 3-day bladder diaries and urodynamics. Furthermore, urinary BDNF levels are assessed conditions including overactive bladder, stress incontinence, bladder pain and prolapse. In the last section, the relevance of the study findings is discussed, and the data is pooled with published data for a meta-analysis of BDNF in lower urinary tract symptoms. Final conclusions are made and suggestions for future research considered.

Neurocranial anatomy of three unusual placoderms revealed by computed tomography scanning, and their implications for early gnathostomes evolution
Creators: name: Castiello, Marco
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: Placoderms are the only known stem-group jawed vertebrates with jaws and their phylogenetic relationships have become central to the question of how gnathostomes evolved. Among placoderms, petalichthyids and "acanthothoracids" have taken a pivotal position in the debate on placoderm paraphyly, owing to their similarities with the jawless outgroups of jawed vertebrates. Nevertheless, their endocranial anatomy is still poorly known, preventing a thorough comparative analysis with the other early gnathostomes. In this thesis, I present the neurocranial anatomy of three exceptionally preserved placoderms, the petalichthyids Shearsbyaspis and Ellopetalichthys, and the "acanthothoracid" Kolymaspis. Using X-ray computed microtomography, I generated three-dimensional reconstructions of their endocranial surfaces, orbital walls, and cranial endocavity. The investigation of the endocranial anatomy of Shearsbyaspis revealed a combination of both derived and plesiomorphic characters never observed before in a placoderm, particularly in its orbital morphology and palatal architecture. Ellopetalichthys provided new evidence to help understanding the functional morphology and evolution of the inner ear and neck articulation in petalichthyids and early jawed vertebrates. Kolymaspis is revealed as an intermediate morphology between long- and short-nosed "acanthothoracids", suggesting that placoderms with similar orbitonasal anatomy might represent a highly specialized morphology rather than being plesiomorphic for jawed gnathostomes. With the aim of testing competing hypothesis on placoderm relationships, I performed different phylogenetic analyses on a new dataset comprising a wide range of early gnathostomes. Parsimony and Bayesian analyses resulted in competing hypotheses regarding placoderm monophyly and we compared the strengths and weaknesses of competing scenarios of placoderm relationships. Placoderms monophyly may indicate new scenarios for the early evolution of jawed vertebrates, implying a primitive architecture similar to those of early arthrodires, maxillate "placoderms" and bony fishes. Similarities between jawless fishes and certain placoderms may instead represent convergent adaptations.
Remote Source Coding under Gaussian Noise : Dueling Roles of Power and Entropy Power

description: The distributed remote source coding (so-called CEO) problem is studied in the case where the underlying source, not necessarily Gaussian, has finite differential entropy and the observation noise is Gaussian. The main result is a new lower bound for the sum-rate-distortion function under arbitrary distortion measures. When specialized to the case of mean-squared error, it is shown that the bound exactly mirrors a corresponding upper bound, except that the upper bound has the source power (variance) whereas the lower bound has the source entropy power. Bounds exhibiting this pleasing duality of power and entropy power have been well known for direct and centralized source coding since Shannon's work. While the bounds hold generally, their value is most pronounced when interpreted as a function of the number of agents in the CEO problem.
Key challenges facing data-driven multicellular systems biology

description: Increasingly sophisticated experiments, coupled with large-scale computational models, have the potential to systematically test biological hypotheses to drive our understanding of multicellular systems. In this short review, we explore key challenges that must be overcome to achieve robust, repeatable data-driven multicellular systems biology. If these challenges can be solved, we can grow beyond the current state of isolated tools and datasets to a community-driven ecosystem of interoperable data, software utilities, and computational modeling platforms. Progress is within our grasp, but it will take community (and financial) commitment.
