TNFα, IL-1α and bFGF are Implicated in the Complex Disease of GM-CSF Transgenic Mice (1992)

Transgenic mice aberrantly expressing the granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) gene develop an unusual syndrome of blindness, tissue damage and wasting which is associated with accumulations of hemopoietic cells. In order to further characterize this disease state, we have used messenger RNA detection techniques to show that the genes for tumor necrosis factor (TNF alpha), interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1 alpha) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) are expressed at abnormally high levels in both macrophages and granulocytes in transgenic mice. Furthermore, since these cell types also express the GM-CSF transgene, it is likely that they are autocrine stimulated by GM-CSF. These observations raise the possibilities that, first, the expression of tumor necrosis factor alpha, interleukin-1 alpha and basic fibroblast growth factor in hemopoietic cells is a direct consequence of their autostimulation by GM-CSF, and second, that these cytokines may be responsible for some aspects of the transgenic mouse disease.

Inter-cell interference management (2013)

In this chapter, we will study power and bandwidth allocation in a multi-cell scenario where inter-cell interference dominates. As in Chapter 5, we assume that the channel gain does not vary over time or frequency.
Organic thin film phototransistors: materials and mechanism (2005)

Highly photosensitive organic phototransistors (OPTs) with an organic thin film transistors configuration based on a biphenyl end capped fused bithiophene oligomer (BPTT) and copper phthalocyanine (CuPC) were prepared. The measured maximum responsivity and the ratio of photocurrent to dark current (IPh/IDark) in BPTT and CuPC OPTs were 82 A/W, 2 A/W and 2.0 × 10<sup>5</sup>, 1000 under 365 nm UV light with 1.55 mW/cm<sup>2</sup>, respectively. The prepared OPTs showed a photocurrent response similar to the photo to current conversion efficiency (IPCE) spectrum of BPTT and CuPC. The main mechanisms responsible for photocurrent amplification in the devices were examined by comparing theoretical and measured data. The photovoltaic (turn-on) and photoconductive effect (turn-off) of the OPTs were determined by fitting to theoretical equations. The findings confirmed that the operation of the OPTs followed as photo-voltaic (turn-on state) and photo-conductive (turn-off state) behaviors.
Architectural Elements of Resource Sharing Networks (2012)

This chapter first presents taxonomies on approaches for resource allocation across resource sharing networks such as Grids. It then examines existing systems and classifies them under their architectures, operational models, support for the life-cycle of virtual organisations, and resource control techniques. Resource sharing networks have been established and used for various scientific applications over the last decade. The early ideas of Grid computing have foreseen a global and scalable network that would provide users with resources on demand. In spite of the extensive literature on resource allocation and scheduling across organisational boundaries, these resource sharing networks mostly work in isolation, thus contrasting with the original idea of Grid computing. Several efforts have been made towards providing architectures, mechanisms, policies and standards that may enable resource allocation across Grids. A survey and classification of these systems are relevant for the understanding of different approaches utilised for connecting resources across organisations and virtualisation techniques. In addition, a classification also sets the ground for future work on inter-operation of Grids.
[Our experience with rehabilitation of patients with Pott's tuberculous paraplegia]. (2003)

Spinal tuberculosis with paraplegia is rarely seen in Israel. All the 10 patients that were hospitalized in our rehabilitation departments had contracted the disease abroad prior to their immigration to Israel. The comprehensive rehabilitation process must include close cooperation between pulmonary physicians, orthopedic surgeons and rehabilitation medicine specialists. An updated review of the relevant literature is presented.
Temperature-Dependent Small-Signal Analysis of High-Speed High-Temperature Stable 980-nm VCSELs (2009)

980-nm VCSELs based on submonolayer growth show for 20-Gbit/s large-signal modulation clearly open eyes without adjustment of the driving conditions between 25degC and 120degC. To access the limiting mechanism for the modulation bandwidth, a temperature-dependent small-signal analysis is carried out on these devices. Single-mode devices are limited by damping, whereas multimode devices are limited by thermal effects, preventing higher photon densities in the cavity.

The Role of Lymphocytes and Macrophages in the Immunological Response. (1972)

This is a compilation of several short reports delivered at the XII International Congress of Haematology held in Munich, Germany, in August 1970. The sum of these presentations constituted a symposium "The Role of Lymphocytes and Macrophages in the Immunological Response." The breakdown of scholarly attention was about 90% to lymphocytes and 10% to macrophages. Individual papers deal with topics such as cellular cooperation in the induction of immune responses, the role of thymus-derived and bone-marrow-derived cells in immune responses; mediators released from antigen- and phytohemagglutinin-stimulated lymphocytes; the presence of immunoglobulins and complement receptors on lymphocyte membranes; and, finally, several papers on the chemistry of some immunologically relevant structures on lymphocyte and red blood cell membranes. All papers are very short and require considerable background to understand. It is a bit difficult to say for whom such a symposium was published. It is much too specialized for clinical allergists, immunologists,
Investigation of Metal Coatings for the Free Electron Laser (1988)

We are investigating the deposition and characteristics of metal coatings for use in environments such as the Free Electron Laser where the radiation resistance of metal coatings could prove to be of great benefit. We have concentrated our initial efforts on silver laminate coatings due to the high reflectance of silver at 1 micron wavelength. Our initial laminate coatings have utilized thin layers of titanium oxide to break up the columnar structure of the silver during electron-beam deposition on fused silica substrates. Our initial results on equal coating thickness samples indicate an improvement in damage threshold that ranges from 1.07 to 1.71 at 351 nm.
A Community-Based Feedback Process for Disseminating Pedestrian BAC Levels (1998)

SUMMARY During National Collegiate Alcohol Awareness Weeks of 1992, 1994, and 1995, blood alcohol concentration (BAC) feedback was offered to pedestrians. Two BAC feedback stations were set up near bars frequented by many university students, and were staffed for either two or three consecutive nights. These stations provided passers-by with their. BAC, as determined by portable breathalyzers. Across the three years of the study, a total of 1,590 individuals (1,192 men, 398 women) participated. The mean BAC for all participants was 0.063 (S.D. = 0,039), ranging from 0.0 to 0.310. Data analysis revealed a main effect for BAC across days, with average BAC being significantly greater on Thursdays than Fridays. A main effect was also found for time, with BACs becoming higher as the night progressed. No main effect for gender was found. However, a significant gender by day of the week interaction resulted from female BAC levels being higher than those of males on Thursdays but male BAC levels being higher than those of females on Fridays. Implications of findings for intervention efforts aimed at curtailing DUI and other alcohol-related problems are discussed.
FORMATION OF EXTRACELLULAR LYSINE BY USTILAGO MAYDIS AND GLIOCLADIUM SP. (1957)

A strain of Gliocladium sp. and a strain of Ustilago maydis produced approximately 400 μg./ml. of extracellular lysine in shaken Erlenmeyer flasks. In U. maydis growth media, most of the extracellular lysine, arginine, and histidine is in the free form. Metabolic studies show the lysine to be formed during early growth, concurrent with the formation of most of the extracellular organic nitrogen. The extracellular organic nitrogen and lysine is used during a late growth surge in experiments showing high lysine concentrations but not in those showing low lysine concentrations.None of the compounds tested as precursors or intermediates resulted in an increased concentration of extracellular lysine.

An efficient structure and algorithm for image representation using nonorthogonal basis images (1997)

This paper presents a new recursive parallel mixed transform technique employing a projection algorithm for image representation. Image coders which employ subsets of nonorthogonal basis images chosen from two or more transform domains have been shown to consistently yield higher image quality than those based on one transform for a fixed compression ratio. However, these techniques have not been widely employed since existing formulations have either lacked rigorous development or suffered from high computational complexity and convergence problems. The algorithm presented herein overcomes these limitations. The algorithm is rigorously formulated, conditions for convergence are derived, and computational considerations are examined. Results of simulations are presented which demonstrate excellent performance in terms of energy compaction.

PREDICTION OF PROCESSING TOMATO PEELING OUTCOMES (2011)

ABSTRACT Peeling outcomes of processing tomatoes were predicted using multivariate analysis of magnetic resonance (MR) images. Tomatoes were obtained from a whole-peel production line. Each fruit was imaged using a 7-tesla MR system, and a multivariate data set was created from 28 different images. After imaging, the fruits were individually tagged and processed in a pilot peeling system. An expert grader then assessed the peeling outcome for each fruit; outcomes included “whole peel,”“some skin attached” and seven others. The multivariate analysis techniques of partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) and soft independent modeling of class analogy (SIMCA) were used to predict peeling outcome from the 28 MR images. The PLS-DA model for the “whole peel” (best) outcome correctly classified 81% of the fruit that were in this category. The SIMCA model performed well for rejecting non-“whole peel” fruit but did not perform as well for identification of “whole peel” fruit. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS Fruit processors seek methods for predicting the quality of their finished products from measurements of their raw materials (individual fruit). Such predictions will ensure optimal allocation and processing of each fruit, which will result in raw material cost savings, improved product quality, wastewater reduction and energy efficiency. In the case of processing tomatoes, peeling outcome is the metric of interest. This study demonstrates the feasibility of predicting final product quality using MR imaging of raw food materials.
Characteristics of High α‐Linolenic Acid Accumulation in Seed Oils (2008)

Modern diets are often deficient in omega-3 fatty acids and additional dietary sources of omega-3 fatty acids are useful. In order to investigate the molecular basis of the high accumulation of the omega-3 fatty acid, alpha-linolenic acid (18:3), in three different plants, flax (Linum usitatissimum), Dracocephalum moldavica, and Perilla frutescens omega-3 desaturase activity, transcript levels, and 18:3 in-vivo synthesis were examined. The 18:3 content was found to be higher at the later developmental stage of D. moldavica (68%) compared with P. frutescens (59%) and flax (45%) cotyledons. The 18:3 and 18:2 contents in both PC and TAG were determined during various stages of seed development for all three plants in addition to soybean (Glycine max). Northern blot analysis data of three different stages of D. moldavica, flax, and P. frutescens compared with moderately low 18:3 producers, soybean (Glycine max), and Arabidopsis thaliana and Brassica napus, (8-10% 18:3) at a stage of zygotic embryo development of high triglyceride synthesis showed that omega-3 desaturase mRNA levels were higher in all three high 18:3 producers, flax, D. moldavica and P. frutescens. This indicates that the high level of alpha-linolenic acid in TAG may be largely controlled by the level of omega-3 desaturase gene expression. However, the PC versus TAG fatty acid composition data suggested that along with omega-3 desaturase other enzymes also play a role in 18:3 accumulation in TAG, and the high accumulators have a selective transfer of alpha-linolenic acid into TAG.
Effects on the peritoneal membrane of rabbits of a single bicarbonate solution containing glycylglycine. (1994)

So far, no one has devised ideal, on-line mixed bicarbonate solutions for hemodialysis and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) because current preparations can lead to precipitation of calcium and magnesium carbonate during treatment. The author has prepared a new, single bicarbonate dialysis solution that contains glycylglycine (BiGG). With a bicarbonate/glycylglycine ratio of 30/10 mM/L, this solution has a stable pH of 7.35; sterilized through a 0.22 micron filter, it remains stable for over 15 months when stored at 10 degrees-40 degrees C. When infused (40 mL/kg bw) in rabbits daily for 25 days, the BiGG solution showed excellent peritoneal-membrane tolerance and biocompatibility. Comparative ultrafiltration (UF) studies with BiGG and standard lactate (La) solutions in rabbits showed that net UF with La solution peaked at 2 h and decreased significantly at 4 h and 6 h. Net UF with BiGG solution peaked at 4 h and was sustained at 6 h; in all instance it was greater than that of La solution by approximately 15%, 30%, and 40% at 2, 4, and 6 h, respectively. During the initial 2-h dwell period, the pH of La solution increased from an initial 5.5 to 7.18, whereas that of the BiGG solution remained stable at 7.35. In all rabbits, the peritoneal fluid contained phosphatidylcholine at all times. However, its concentration was significantly higher in animals receiving the BiGG solution than in those receiving the La solution. The author concludes that this new single BiGG PD solution is simple to use, stable, and of a normal pH.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Software requirements negotiation: some lessons learned (2002)

Negotiating requirements is one of the first steps in any software system life cycle, but its results have probably the most significant impact on the system's value. However, the processes of requirements negotiation are not well understood. We have had the opportunity to capture and analyze requirements negotiation behavior for groups of projects developing library multimedia archive systems, using an instrumented version of the USC WinWin groupware system for requirements negotiation. Some of the more illuminating results were: most stakeholder Win Conditions were noncontroversial (were not involved in issues); negotiation activity varied by stakeholder role; LCO package quality (measured by grading criteria) could be predicted by negotiation attributes; and WinWin increased cooperativeness, reduced friction, and helped focus on key issues.

Preliminary Experimental Investigation of the Simple Source Theory for Jet Noise (1971)

One of the authors [J. Acoust. Soc. Amer. 30, 318 (1958); Aerodynamic Noise Symp., Loughborough Univ. of Technol. (1970), Paper A7] and H. S. Ribner [Advan. Appl. Mech. 8, 103 (1963)] have proposed a simple source theory for jet noise. The simple source, in the simplest form of the theory, is proportional to the second time derivative of the hydrodynamic pressure within the jet. Using the working hypothesis that the correlation length (eddy size) for a region of fluid radiating sound at frequency f is inversely proportional to the frequency, we derive that the ratio of the spectrum of the radiated sound power W(f) to the spectrum of the fluctuating hydrodynamic pressure in the jet Spo(f) is W(f)/Spo≃π4(ρc)−1α2D2M4(f/fs), where ρ is the fluid density, c is the speed of sound in the ambient fluid, α is the turbulence intensity, D is the jet nozzle diameter, M is the Mach number, and fs is the Strouhal frequency. The theoretical values of the ratio are compared with data measured with a small turbojet engine and with a model jet at the UCLA Sonic Research Laboratory.
Damage induced by plasma etching: On the correlation of results from photoluminescence and transport characterization techniques (1995)

Plasma dry etching, used for the fabrication of low-dimensional structures, is known to create defects in the material which affect both the optical and the transport properties of the sample. We compare the results obtained from three different methods of characterizing the damage induced by electron cyclotron resonance metalorganic reactive ion etching to the two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures: photoluminescence, transport measurements, and electron paramagnetic resonance. Etching impairs the quality of luminescence and decreases the single-particle relaxation time, while the concentration of a surface related paramagnetic defect (probably dangling bonds) is increased. However, detailed experiments show no correlation between the density of defects and transport or luminescence properties, nor between transport and luminescence properties. In particular, hydrogen passivation, which improves the luminescence properties after etching, leads to deteriorated transport properties.
Regulating Expression of Cell and Tissue Specific Genes by Modifying Trans Factors. Final technical report (2000)

possess multiple regulatory domains. Functional characterization reveals that those domains can activate or repress the activity of the RTBV promoter. It is equally as important to recognize that these proteins control plant development by regulating differentiation and/or function of the vascular tissues. Studies of transcriptional regulation of the RTBV promoter by this group of bZIP proteins will not only provide insights about gene expression in the vascular tissue, but also insights about general mechanisms of transcription activation and repression. The knowledge gained from this research will also enable us to develop a well-described set of tools that can be used to control expression of multiple genes in transgenic plants. We have proposed characterize the function domains of RF2a, RF2b and RLP1 and explore the biological function of the transcription repressor RLP1.
