An Efficient Reverse Converter for the Three-Moduli Set ( $ 2^{n+1}-1, 2^{n}, 2^{n}-1$ ) (2016)

The well-known three-moduli set (2 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">n</sup> +1, 2 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">n</sup> , 2 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">n</sup> -1), where n is a positive integer, has received considerable attention over the last three decades. Many researchers have proposed residue-to-binary (reverse) converters for this moduli set. However, the problem of designing a reverse converter for the moduli set (2 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">n+1</sup> -1, 2 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">n</sup> , 2 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">n</sup> -1) did not receive significant attention. In this brief, we are proposing a reverse converter for this particular moduli set. When compared with the available similar converters, considerable reductions have been achieved. Using VLSI design tools, the area, time, and power reductions are in the range of (10.6 - 60.1)%, (13.8 - 25.2)%, and (7.7 - 52.1)%, respectively.
Melt strength and film bubble instability of LLDPE/LDPE blends (1999)

The relevance of measuring the melt strength of low density polyethylene (LDPE), linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) and their blends to their performance in terms of bubble stability in the film blowing process has been investigated. A good correlation between the melt strength values for two series of LLDPE/LDPE blends and the size of the operating window for stable film bubble formation has been established. Both the macromolecular structure of the parent polymers, and melt morphology play an important role in the performance of these blends in the film blowing process. © 1999 Society of Chemical Industry
Microwave radiation‐induced calcium ion efflux from human neuroblastoma cells in culture (1984)

Monolayer cultures of human neuroblastoma cells were exposed to 915-MHz radiation, with or without sinusoidal amplitude modulation (80%) at 16 Hz, at specific absorption rates (SAR) for the culture medium and cells of 0.00, 0.01, 0.05, 0.075, 0.1, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.5, 2, or 5 mW/g. A significant increase in the efflux of calcium ions (45Ca2+) as compared to unexposed control cultures occurred at two SAR values: 0.05 and 1 mW/g. Increased efflux at 0.05 mW/g was dependent on the presence of amplitude modulation at 16 Hz but at the higher value it was not. These results indicate that human neuroblastoma cells are sensitive to extremely low levels of microwave radiation at certain narrow ranges of SAR.

Targeted proteolysis of the focal adhesion kinase pp125 FAK during c-MYC-induced apoptosis is suppressed by integrin signalling. (1996)

The product of the c-myc proto-oncogene has a central role in induction of apoptosis, a physiological form of cell death characterised in vitro by morphological rounding, detachment and nuclear disintegration. Induction of apoptosis by serum withdrawal from c-Myc-transformed chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEF) results in early proteolysis of focal adhesion kinase (ppl25FAK), a tyrosine kinase implicated in the conversion of integrin signals into their biological responses. Proteolysis of pp125 FAK occurs in adherent cells prior to commitment to death, suggesting that it contributes to c-Myc-induced apoptosis, rather than being a consequence of it. Furthermore, c-Myc-induced detachment, cell death and cleavage of pp125FAK are coordinately suppressed by treating with insulin or plating on the extracellular matrix components collagen and fibronectin. In addition, proteolysis of pp125FAK is suppressed by a beta1-specific integrin antibody, which promotes cell survival in the face of the oncoprotein-induced signal for apoptosis. These results provide compelling evidence that the c-Myc-induced cell death programme in CEF requires disruption of the integrin signalling pathways which normally function when cells are spread on ECM, and that maintaining cellular pp125FAK, which couples integrins to their downstream effectors, is closely linked to cell survival.

The goal of this project is to improve the efficiency of miscible CO2 floods and enhance the prospects for flooding heterogeneous reservoirs. This report provides results of the second year of the three-year project that will be exploring three principles: (1) Fluid and matrix interactions (understanding the problems). (2) Conformance control/sweep efficiency (solving the problems. 3) Reservoir simulation for improved oil recovery (predicting results).
Repression of Versican Expression by MicroRNA-143 (2010)

Smooth muscle cells (SMCs) retain remarkable plasticity to undergo phenotypic modulation in which the expression of smooth muscle markers is markedly attenuated while conversely expression of extracellular matrix (ECM) is dramatically up-regulated. Myocardin is perhaps the most potent transcription factor for stimulating expression of smooth muscle-specific genes; little is known, however, about whether myocardin can orchestrate ECM expression to act in concert with smooth muscle differentiation program. In this study, we demonstrated myocardin coordinate smooth muscle differentiation by inducing transcription of microRNA-143 (miR-143), which attenuates ECM versican protein expression. Previous studies have shown that versican is a chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan of the ECM that is produced by synthetic SMCs and promotes SMC migration and proliferation. Our data demonstrated that myocardin significantly represses versican expression in multiple cell lines, and this occurs through the induction of miR-143 by myocardin. By a modified reverse transcribed PCR, we found that miR-143 specifically binds to the 3'-untranslated region of versican mRNA. Reporter assays validated that miR-143 targets versican 3'-untranslated region through an evolutionarily conserved miR-143 binding site. Furthermore, overexpression of miR-143 significantly represses versican expression, whereas conversely, depletion of endogenous miR-143 results in up-regulation of versican expression. In addition, we demonstrated that myocardin represses versican through induction of miR-143. Finally, we found that the regulation of versican by miR-143 is involved in platelet-derived growth factor BB-induced SMC migration. This study provides the first evidence that myocardin, in addition to activating smooth muscle-specific genes, regulates ECM expression through induction of microRNAs during smooth muscle differentiation.
Silicon Carbide Nanostructures from Reactions between Vapors of Organochlorosilanes and Liquid of Sodium‐Factors Affecting Morphology and Composition (2007)

Abstract Cubic shells and spherical nanoparticles of β‐SiC were produced at 1273 K by processing the ceramic precursors formed from the reactions between vapors of organochlorosilanes, Me 2 SiCl 2 , MeSiCl 3 , MeSiHCl 2 , and PhSiCl 3 , and liquid Na at 523‐723 K. From Me 2 SiCl 2 , a flexible linear polycarbosilane precursor was synthesized and covered the NaCl byproduct surface to form a cubic shape. Hollow cubic β‐SiC shells were produced after the NaCl templates were removed. From MeSiCl 3 , a rigid cross‐linked polycarbosilane was produced and phase segregated from the NaCl byproduct. The precursor was transformed into nanoparticles without special morphology. MeSiHCl 2 produced a cross‐linked polysilane precursor at low temperatures, which can be converted into a mixture of β‐SiC and Si nanoparticles. At high temperatures, the polysilane converted to polycarbosilane and produced hollow cubic β‐SiC shells. The carbon‐rich PhSiCl 3 generated cube‐like particles as the final product, which contained β‐SiC and carbon.
Patterns of Hydrogen in Biogas from the Anaerobic Digestion of Milk-Sugars (1989)

Concentrations of hydrogen (1-1000 vpm) in the biogas from a laboratory-scale anaerobic digester, fed with (70 g/l) reconstituted skimmed milk as substrate, were intensively monitored to determine whether hydrogen could provide a useful new alarm/loading indicator for the anaerobic digestion process. With fast-fermenting substrates such as milk-sugars it proved to be a very sensitive event-marker, producing small ripples in time with operation of the digester feed pump as well as larger pulses caused by chloroform toxicity. Scavenging of hydrogen by lithotropic methanogens appeared to promote the fermentation of sugars directly to acetate, bypassing both the formation and subsequent breakdown of higher acids, a feature that is likely to prove peculiar to methanogenic and sulphate-reducing fermentations.
ONLINE AUCTION DECEPTION USING A SHILL BIDDING AGENT (2008)

Shill bidding is the act of using bids in an online auction to drive up the final price for the seller, thereby defrauding legitimate bidders. While 'shilling' is recognized as a problem and shill bidding is strictly forbidden in online auctions, presently there is little to no established means of defense against shills. This paper presents a software bidding agent that follows a shill bidding strategy. The agent incrementally increases an auction's price, forcing legitimate bidders to submit higher bids in order to win the item. The agent ceases bidding when the desired profit from shilling has been attained, or in the case that it is too risky to continue bidding without winning the auction. Its ability to inflate the price has been tested in a simulated marketplace and experimental results are presented. Furthermore, the agent is used to assist in developing algorithms to detect the presence of shill bidding in online auctions.
Definition of diabetes mellitus. (1986)

The nomenclature of human diabetes mellitus (DM) has been revised, and this classification has been accepted throughout the medical world and literature. The major categories of diabetes are: insulin-dependent DM, type I or IDDM; noninsulin-dependent DM, type II or NIDDM; secondary DM or type S; impaired glucose tolerance, IGT; gestational diabetes; and previous abnormality of glucose tolerance, PrevAGT. A review of the literature has shown that over half of the documented diabetic dogs, with a single medical diagnosis, appear to be type I, IDDM, with a substantial proportion being type S, and the remainder being type II, NIDDM. Obesity is frequently associated with IGT and NIDDM. Diabetic cats most commonly have pancreatic islet destruction associated with pancreatic amyloidosis; they are insulin deficient, IDDM. The commonest causes of secondary diabetes in dogs are pancreatic damage, hyperadrenocorticism and hypersomatotropism secondary to persistent progesterone influence. Progestogen therapy is the most frequently reported cause of secondary diabetes in cats. Diabetes in horses is type S, usually secondary to a functional pituitary tumor but occasionally following chronic pancreatitis. The blood glucose ranges for normal, IGT and diabetic animals, and the normal serum insulin values of various species is tabulated.
Effects of Restless Legs Syndrome on Quality of Life and Psychological Status in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes (2010)

Among individuals with diabetes, RLS can impair mental health, increasing the risk for anxiety and depression. Since RLS consequences on nocturnal rest and psychological status may impair glycemic control in this population, diabetologists and diabetes educators should investigate for the presence of RLS in their patients and treat them.
Past, Present, and Future of Brain Organoid Technology. (2019)

Brain organoids are an exciting new technology with the potential to significantly change our understanding of the development and disorders of the human brain. With step-by-step differentiation protocols, three-dimensional neural tissues are self-organized from pluripotent stem cells, and recapitulate the major millstones of human brain development in vitro. Recent studies have shown that brain organoids can mimic the spatiotemporal dynamicity of neurogenesis, the formation of regional neural circuitry, and the integration of glial cells into a neural network. This suggests that brain organoids could serve as a representative model system to study the human brain. In this review, we will overview the development of brain organoid technology, its current progress and applications, and future prospects of this technology.

Crystal Structure of the Zinc-Dependent MarR Family Transcriptional Regulator AdcR in the Zn(II)-Bound State (2011)

Streptococcus pneumoniae adhesin competence regulator (AdcR), the first metal-dependent member of the multiple antibiotic resistance regulator (MarR) family of proteins, represses the transcription of a high-affinity zinc-specific uptake transporter, a group of surface antigen zinc-binding pneumococcal histidine triad proteins (PhtA, PhtB, PhtD, and PhtE), and an AdcA homologue (AdcAII). The 2.0 Å resolution structure of Zn(II)-bound AdcR reveals a highly helical two-fold-symmetric dimer with two distinct metal-binding sites per protomer. Zn(II) is tetrahedrally coordinated by E24, H42, H108, and H112 in what defines the primary sensing site in AdcR. Site 2 is a tetracoordinate site whose function is currently unknown. NMR methyl group perturbation experiments reveal that Zn(II) drives a global change in the structure of apo-AdcR that stabilizes a conformation that is compatible with DNA binding. This co-repression mechanism is unprecedented in MarR transcriptional regulators.
Wood modification developments (2004)

The last decades developments in the arena of wood modification have accelerated considerably. This acceleration is due to a number of circumstances of which the environmental awareness, the increasing demand for high and constant quality and the increasing prices and availability of tropical hardwood species. This has led to the up-scaling and the market introduction of a number of wood modification techniques. Modification can be done without added chemicals by heat treatment only, or with the aid of added chemicals. Examples of both principles are given. Several products of thermally modified wood are already available on the market. More recently the first chemical modification processes have reached (or are about to reach) market introduction. Chemical modification makes wood with superior qualities of tailor-made products possible. The variability in degree of modification within wood is discussed with acetylated wood as an example. Different treatabilities in different wood species also reflect in acetic anhydride impregnation. However, in contrast to waterborne systems this does not result in sharp fronts but in more gradual profiles. The gas diffusion of the chemical into the wood plays an important role in this phenomenon. In the further process developments these effects need to be taken into account.

The Mouse Gene Ptprf Encoding the Leukocyte Common Antigen-Related Molecule LAR: Cloning, Characterization, and Chromosomal Localization (1995)

The human receptor-like protein tyrosine phosphatase leukocyte common antigen-related molecule (LAR; gene symbol PTPRF) closely resembles cell adhesion molecules, which suggests that it may be involved in the regulation of phosphotyrosine levels through cell-cell or cell-matrix interactions. To obtain a better understanding of LAR function, we have characterized the mouse Ptprf gene as a first step toward site-directed mutagenesis studies in vitro and in vivo. The cytoplasmic region of the mouse LAR (mLAR) protein is encoded by 11 exons that span only 4.5 kb of genomic DNA. Compared to the known exon-intron structures of other mammalian receptor-like protein tyrosine phosphatase genes, such as Ptpra (encoding LRP) and Ptprc (coding for Ly-5), the Ptprf gene part encoding the cytoplasmic region of mLAR contains not only smaller, but also fewer introns. Sequence analysis of both phosphatase domains of mLAR and its homologs MPTP delta and mRPTP sigma revealed a higher evolutionary conservation of the second, C-terminal domain in comparison to the first domain. Fluorescence in situ hybridization was used to map the Ptprf gene to region C6-D1 on mouse chromosome 4.

Titanium nitride–carbon nanotube core–shell composites as effective electrocatalyst supports for low temperature fuel cells (2012)

Titanium nitride–carbon nanotube (TiN–CNT) core–shell nanocomposites were developed by a simplistic two step fabrication procedure and characterized by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric analysis. These materials were utilized as platinum nanoparticle electrocatalyst supports (Pt/TiN–CNT) for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and methanol oxidation reaction (MOR), two important low temperature fuel cell processes. Improved ORR and MOR activities were demonstrated for Pt/TiN–CNTs compared with state of the art commercial Pt/C. Moreover, enhanced CO tolerance towards the MOR was demonstrated attributed to the interaction occurring between adsorbed CO molecules and the TiN–CNT supports. TiN–CNTs are thus presented as highly promising, novel electrocatalyst support materials with enhanced ORR and MOR performance attributed to their anisotropic morphology, enhanced electronic properties and conductivity, and distinct catalyst–support interactions.

Controlled release morphine sulphate tablets‐‐a study in normal volunteers. (1980)

Indomethacin 25 mg four times daily and tromaril 600mg three times daily are therapeutically used doses comparable in terms of anti-inflammatory and PG-synthetase inhibitor activity. The treatment was not randomized because duration of PG synthetase inhibitor activity for tromaril is not known. There is therefore uncertainty regarding duration of washout period that would be necessary after tromaril. All the volunteers received indomethacin first, then tromaril. Urine was collected 6 hourly, and electrolytes estimated using flame photometry. The duration of PG-synthetase inhibitor activity of 50 mg indomethacin three times daily has been shown to be 30 h (Rane, Oelz, Frolich, Seyberth, Sweetman, Watson, Wilkinson & Oates, 1978). A washout period of 60 h was therefore given after indomethacin. There was no statistically significant difference between urine output and electrolyte excretion on control day prior to tromaril and indomethacin thus showing that the washout period after indomethacin was adequate. Indomethacin decreased sodium and chloride excretion in 0-12 h period. However, probably due to homeostatic mechanisms the 24 h output was unaltered.
The use of steel sheet for the construction of shielded rooms (1953)

LOW-LEVEL electronic or electrical measurements are particularly susceptible to errors introduced by external electromagnetic influences. The coupling of spurious electromagnetic energy into a measuring system not only may result in the receipt of false information but also can sometimes cause the complete masking of the desired data as well. For these reasons, many low-level measurements, such as the determination of crystal characteristics, filter insertion loss, noise measurements, and the like, must be made in a location as free as possible from such interference. In a laboratory, such isolation from interference is usually achieved by completely enclosing an area in copper or bronze screening. By shielding off a region relatively free of external interference in this way, a working area is provided within which sensitive electronic measurements can be made.
