Nonlinear Coherent Transport Through Doped Nanotube Junctions (1999)

The electronic and phase-coherent transport properties of doped carbon nanotube junctions are studied. It is shown that there are regions of negative differential resistance in the $I\ensuremath{-}V$ characteristic of small radius metallic tubes, which are not seen for semiconducting tubes. Their origin, as discussed, is different from that of traditional Esaki diodes and resonant tunneling structures. Semiconducting tube characteristics, however, show a region of zero current for nonzero voltages which is asymmetric with respect to the applied bias if there is different doping on each side of the junction.
Superconducting Optoelectronic Circuits for Neuromorphic Computing (2017)

To realize functionality similar to that of their biological inspirations, advanced neuromorphic systems require massive interconnectivity, extreme energy efficiency, and complex signaling mechanisms. The authors propose an integrated optoelectronic platform combining superconducting electronics with photonic signaling, to enable neuromorphic computing beyond the scale of the human brain.
Enhanced tumor localization and in vivo stability of a monoclonal antibody radioiodinated using N-succinimidyl 3-(tri-n-butylstannyl)benzoate. (1989)

Loss of radiolabel after in vivo administration of labeled monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to cancer patients is a likely cause of the low levels of tumor uptake of MAb which have been observed. In this study, we have evaluated the utility of N-succinimidyl 3-(tri-n-butylstannyl)benzoate (ATE) for the radioiodination of 81C6, a MAb reactive with the extracellular matrix antigen tenascin associated with gliomas and other tumors. In vitro binding properties of MAb labeled via ATE were slightly better than those of the Iodogen preparations. Paired-label studies were performed in athymic mice bearing s.c. D-54 MG xenografts and injected with both 81C6 labeled with 125I using the ATE method and 131I using the Iodogen method. These studies demonstrated that use of the ATE method (a) decreased thyroid uptake by 40- to 100-fold, suggesting a lower rate of dehalogenation compared to MAb labeled using Iodogen; (b) increased tumor uptake by as much as a factor of 4 at Day 1 to more than 12-fold at Day 8; and (c) resulted in superior tumor-to-normal-tissue dose ratios. The specificity of MAb uptake was investigated in a paired-labeled study comparing the distribution of 81C6 and isotype-matched control 45.6, both labeled using the ATE procedure. Localization indices for tumor ranged between 6 at Day 1 to 34 at Day 7, values considerably higher than those reported previously for 81C6 and 45.6 radioiodinated using a conventional method (chloramine T). These results demonstrate that the ATE method may be a valuable approach for labeling MAbs with iodine nuclides.
Fed‐batch culture of a metabolically engineered Escherichia coli strain designed for high‐level succinate production and yield under aerobic conditions (2005)

An aerobic succinate production system developed by Lin et al. (Metab Eng, in press) is capable of achieving the maximum theoretical succinate yield of 1.0 mol/mol glucose for aerobic conditions. It also exhibits high succinate productivity. This succinate production system is a mutant E. coli strain with five pathways inactivated: DeltasdhAB, Delta(ackA-pta), DeltapoxB, DeltaiclR, and DeltaptsG. The mutant strain also overexpresses Sorghum vulgare pepc. This mutant strain is designated HL27659k(pKK313). Fed-batch reactor experiments were performed for the strain HL27659k(pKK313) under aerobic conditions to determine and demonstrate its capacity for high-level succinate production. Results showed that it could produce 58.3 g/l of succinate in 59 h under complete aerobic conditions. Throughout the entire fermentation the average succinate yield was 0.94+/-0.07 mol/mol glucose, the average productivity was 1.08+/-0.06 g/l-h, and the average specific productivity was 89.77+/-3.40 mg/g-h. Strain HL27659k (pKK313) is, thus, capable of large-scale succinate production under aerobic conditions. The results also showed that the aerobic succinate production system using the designed strain HL27659k(pKK313) is more practical than conventional anaerobic succinate production systems. It has remarkable potential for industrial-scale succinate production and process optimization.
Protecting browsers from cross-origin CSS attacks (2010)

Cross-origin CSS attacks use style sheet import to steal confidential information from a victim website, hijacking a user's existing authenticated session; existing XSS defenses are ineffective. We show how to conduct these attacks with any browser, even if JavaScript is disabled, and propose a client-side defense with little or no impact on the vast majority of web sites. We have implemented and deployed defenses in Firefox, Google Chrome, and Safari. Our defense proposal has also been adopted by Opera.

Heterogeneity for Stem Cell–Related Markers According to Tumor Subtype and Histologic Stage in Breast Cancer (2010)

Our findings suggest that in breast cancer, the frequency of tumor cells positive for stem cell-like and more differentiated cell markers varies according to tumor subtype and histologic stage.
Synthesis and Photoluminescence Property of Silicon Carbide Nanowires Via Carbothermic Reduction of Silica (2009)

Silicon carbide nanowires have been synthesized at 1400 degrees C by carbothermic reduction of silica with bamboo carbon under normal atmosphere pressure without metallic catalyst. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy and Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy were used to characterize the silicon carbide nanowires. The results show that the silicon carbide nanowires have a core-shell structure and grow along <111> direction. The diameter of silicon carbide nanowires is about 50-200 nm and the length from tens to hundreds of micrometers. The vapor-solid mechanism is proposed to elucidate the growth process. The photoluminescence of the synthesized silicon carbide nanowires shows significant blueshifts, which is resulted from the existence of oxygen defects in amorphous layer and the special rough core-shell interface.
Optical processes in semiconductors (1975)

Based on a series of lectures at Berkeley, 1968-1969, this is the first book to deal comprehensively with all of the phenomena involving light in semiconductors. The author has combined, for the graduate student and researcher, a great variety of source material, journal research, and many years of experimental research, adding new insights published for the first time in this book.Coverage includes energy states in semiconductors and their perturbation by external parameters, absorption, relationships between optical constants, spectroscopy, radiative transitions, nonradiative recombination
Computed Tomography — An Increasing Source of Radiation Exposure (2007)

The number of computed tomographic (CT) studies performed is increasing rapidly. Because CT scans involve much higher doses of radiation than plain films, we are seeing a marked increase in radiation exposure in the general population. Epidemiologic studies indicate that the radiation dose from even two or three CT scans results in a detectable increase in the risk of cancer, especially in children. This article summarizes the facts about this form of radiation exposure and the implications for public health.
DNA‐Based Rhesus Typing: Simultaneous Determination of RHC and RHD Status Using the Polymerase Chain Reaction (1996)

We describe a PCR-based method of performing RHD and C/c typing in a single reaction. The method is based on an earlier observation of a polymorphism in intron 2 of both genes which, in addition to detecting the RHD deletion responsible for most known D-negative phenotypes, is also associated with C/c serological type. Using this assay, we typed 105 unrelated individuals from at least four different population groups and compared the results to those obtained using conventional serological testing of red cells. An absolute correlation, with no exceptions, was seen. We also showed that the method has potential in the antenatal determination of RH type, as it was possible to type fetal trophoblasts recovered from the endocervical canal at 9 weeks pregnancy.
On Random Weights and Unsupervised Feature Learning (2011)

Recently two anomalous results in the literature have shown that certain feature learning architectures can perform very well on object recognition tasks, without training. In this paper we pose the question, why do random weights sometimes do so well? Our answer is that certain convolutional pooling architectures can be inherently frequency selective and translation invariant, even with random weights. Based on this we demonstrate the viability of extremely fast architecture search by using random weights to evaluate candidate architectures, thereby sidestepping the time-consuming learning process. We then show that a surprising fraction of the performance of certain state-of-the-art methods can be attributed to the architecture alone. 1

Bronchodilators and corticosteroids in the treatment of asthma (1998)

Despite advancements in treatment, the incidence of asthma, asthma-related deaths and hospitalizations for asthma have increased significantly during the past decade. Although asthma mortality may now be decreasing, reasons for the worsening of morbidity and mortality in asthma remain unclear. These unexpected changes in asthma severity have sparked renewed interest in research into the pathogenesis and treatment of the condition. Beta(2)-Adrenergic agonists are the most commonly used class of drugs for the treatment of asthma. Recent concerns about safety issues for beta-agonists caused reevaluation of prescribing practices, and using them on an as-needed basis is now more frequently accepted and recommended. In acute asthma, a beta(2)-adrenergic agonist is still the medication of choice. Long-acting salmeterol and formoterol, administered only twice daily, can decrease symptoms of asthma during day and nighttime. On the other hand, the role of tolerance to their bronchodilator and bronchoprotective effects is still to be determined in the treatment of asthma. Theophylline, whose use has been limited by the potential for serious toxicity, may regain an important position in asthma treatment with the development of the knowledge about its antiinflammatory actions. Dosing theophylline on a time- related basis also improves the risk/benefit ratio and makes it a useful drug for nocturnal asthma. Ipratropium bromide, an anticholinergic drug, still awaits a defined role in the treatment of asthma. Studies on its use for acute asthma have not achieved consensus and, for nocturnal asthma, the short duration of effect limits the benefits. Corticosteroids, including inhaled steroids, have measurable effects on symptoms, lung function, bronchial responsiveness and inflammation associated with asthma. Side effects of chronic use limit systemic, but not inhaled administration. Newer preparations, like budesonide, flunisolide and fluticasone, decrease the incidence of possible side effects related to inhaled steroids by having better ratio of topical to systemic potency. Daily doses up to 1600 micro g of beclomethasone (or equivalent) are considered safe and higher doses should be reserved for patients with moderate to severe asthma. Although future trials are necessary to clarify many issues related to dosing of inhaled steroids, chronotherapy studies have shown that single administration between 3 and 5:30 p.m. may be as effective as 4 times a day dosing.
Purification and Reconstitution of Murine Mitochondrial Glycerol-3-phosphate Acyltransferase. Functional Expression in Baculovirus-Infected Insect Cells (1995)

Glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT) catalyzes the initial step in glycerolipid biosynthesis. We recently cloned a cDNA to a 6.8-kb mRNA, a message that can be induced dramatically by feeding a high-carbohydrate diet [Paulauskis & Sul (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 7049-7054; Shin et al. (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 23834-23839], and identified the open reading frame, p90, as mitochondrial GPAT [Yet et al. (1993) Biochemistry 32, 9486-9491]. To initiate characterization of mitochondrial GPAT, we purified and reconstituted the GPAT activity using phospholipids after expressing functional enzyme in Sf9 insect cells. Infection with recombinant virus containing p90 sequence resulted in high levels of GPAT expression in mitochondria, compared to noninfected cells or cells infected with the reverse orientation insertion baculovirus. There was a dramatic increase in N-ethylmaleimide-resistant mitochondrial GPAT activity. The GPAT protein was not detectable by Western blot in noninfected Sf9 cells or in cells infected with the GPAT sequence in the reverse orientation. However, in cells infected with GPAT in the correct orientation, there was a dramatic increase in the GPAT protein that was readily detectable by Coomassie staining both in total extracts and in the mitochondrial fraction. To ease the purification, we next expressed GPAT as a polyhistidine fusion protein in insect cells. The polyhistidine tag did not interfere with targeting to mitochondria or with the catalytic activity of GPAT.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
Microextraction of bacterial lipid A: easy and rapid method for mass spectrometric characterization (2005)

Endotoxins (lipopolysaccharides) are the main components of Gram-negative bacterial outer membranes. A quick and simple way to isolate their lipid region (lipid A) directly from whole bacterial cells was devised. This method using hot ammonium-isobutyrate solvent was applied to small quantities of cells and proved to be indispensable when a rapid characterization of lipid A structure by mass spectrometry was required. Biological activities of endotoxins are directly related to the lipid A structures, which vary greatly with cell growth conditions. This method is suitable for rough- and smooth-type bacteria and very efficient for screening variations in lipid A structures. Data are acquired in a few hours and avoid the use of phenol in extraction.
Photonic band-gap structures (1993)

The analogy between electromagnetic wave propagation in multidimensionally periodic structures and electron-wave propagation in real crystals has proven to be a fruitful one. Initial efforts were motivated by the prospect of a photonic band gap, a frequency band in three-dimensional dielectric structures in which electromagnetic waves are forbidden irrespective of the propagation direction in space. Today many new ideas and applications are being pursued in two and three dimensions and in metallic, dielectric, and acoustic structures. We review the early motivations for this research, which were derived from the need for a photonic band gap in quantum optics. This need led to a series of experimental and theoretical searches for the elusive photonic band-gap structures, those three-dimensionally periodic dielectric structures that are to photon waves as semiconductor crystals are to electron waves. We describe how the photonic semiconductor can be doped, producing tiny electromagnetic cavities. Finally, we summarize some of the anticipated implications of photonic band structure for quantum electronics and for other areas of physics and electrical engineering.
Photoregulated Release of Caged Anticancer Drugs from Gold Nanoparticles (2009)

An anticancer drug (5-fluorouracil) was conjugated to the surface of gold nanoparticles through a photocleavable o-nitrobenzyl linkage. In this system, the particle serves as both cage and carrier for the therapeutic, providing a nontoxic conjugate that effectively releases the payload upon long wavelength UV irradiation.
Serum Estradiol Level and Risk of Breast Cancer During Treatment With Raloxifene (2002)

Measurement of estradiol level by sensitive assay in postmenopausal women identifies those at high risk of breast cancer who may benefit most from raloxifene. If confirmed, this suggests that measuring estradiol and treating women with high estradiol levels could substantially reduce the rate of breast cancer among postmenopausal women.
The Cell Cycle Independence of HIV Infections Is Not Determined by Known Karyophilic Viral Elements (2005)

Human immunodeficiency virus and other lentiviruses infect cells independent of cell cycle progression, but gammaretroviruses, such as the murine leukemia virus (MLV) require passage of cells through mitosis. This property is thought to be important for the ability of HIV to infect resting CD4+ T cells and terminally differentiated macrophages. Multiple and independent redundant nuclear localization signals encoded by HIV have been hypothesized to facilitate migration of viral genomes into the nucleus. The integrase (IN) protein of HIV is one of the HIV elements that targets to the nucleus; however, its role in nuclear entry of virus genomes has been difficult to describe because mutations in IN are pleiotropic. To investigate the importance of the HIV IN protein for infection of non-dividing cells, and to investigate whether or not IN was redundant with other viral signals for cell cycle-independent nuclear entry, we constructed an HIV-based chimeric virus in which the entire IN protein of HIV was replaced by that of MLV. This chimeric virus with a heterologous IN was infectious at a low level, and was able to integrate in an IN-dependent manner. Furthermore, this virus infected non-dividing cells as well as it infected dividing cells. Moreover, we used the chimeric HIV with MLV IN to further eliminate all of the other described nuclear localization signals from an HIV genome--matrix, IN, Viral Protein R, and the central polypurine tract--and show that no combination of the virally encoded NLS is essential for the ability of HIV to infect non-dividing cells.
Methane dry reforming over ceria-zirconia supported Ni catalysts (2016)

Nickel nanoparticles supported on Ce1-xZrxO2 mixed oxides prepared by different synthesis methods, as well as Ni-ZrO2 and Ni-CeO2, were evaluated for their catalytic performance in methane dry reforming (MDR). MDR is an interesting model reaction to evaluate the reactivity and surface chemistry of mixed oxides. Textural and structural properties were studied by N2 adsorption and XRD. Mixed oxide preparation by co-precipitation resulted in catalysts with higher surface area than that of pure ZrO2 or CeO2. XRD analysis showed the formation of different Ce1-xZrxO2 solid solutions depending on using a surfactant or not. The catalyst prepared by surfactant assisted co-precipitation was not active for methane dry reforming most likely because of the encapsulation of Ni particles by ceria-zirconia particles, as revealed by TEM and H2 chemisorption. The catalytic activity of the catalyst prepared by co-precipitation without surfactant was comparable to Ni-ZrO2. Clearly, catalyst activity strongly depends on preparation and on the resulting phase composition rather than on nominal composition. Compared to Ni-ZrO2 the ceria-zirconia supported Ni catalyst did not achieve higher activity or stability for methane dry reforming but, nevertheless, the formation of filamentous carbon was strongly reduced (100 times less carbonaceous species). Consequently, using ceria-zirconia as a support material decreases the risk of reactor tube blocking.
