Two-dimensional electrophoretic analysis of plasma membrane protein changes associated with concanavalin A-induced capping in Dictyostelium discoideum (1986)

The colloidal silica and magnetite plasma membrane (PM) isolation techniques which are rapid, high-yielding and immobilize PM proteins, allow the study of transient cell surface changes. In addition, since the external face of the PM is shielded by the colloids, transbilayer mapping can be done by labeling the PM-proteins before and after PM isolation. PM-proteins isolated by these procedures were characterized by 2D gel analysis using microcomputer-videodensitometry. The orientation of the proteins in the bilayer was determined by LPO-catalyzed iodination. Cells were examined at four stages of concanavalin A (con A) induced capping: without ligand, after ligand binding, during receptor patching, and during receptor capping. PM-proteins were characterized with respect to their M.W., pI, Triton-insoluble cytoskeleton association, phosphorylation state, LPO iodination and con A binding. When cells were patched before Triton extraction, more PM-proteins were found associated with the cytoskeleton than without patching. Similar results were obtained with the F-actin cosedimentation assay; however, some binding occurred even in the absence of the lectin. The phosphorylation state of the PM-proteins after steady state labeling of the cells with /sup 32/PO/sub 4/ was not significantly altered by con A ligation.
Visual–perceptual and cognitive differences between expert, intermediate, and novice snooker players (1994)

Abstract The performance of seven expert, seven intermediate, and 15 novice snooker players was compared on a range of general visual tests and sport‐specific perceptual and cognitive tests in an attempt to determine the locus of the expert advantage. No significant expert‐novice differences were apparent on standard optometric tests of acuity, ocular muscle balance, colour vision, and depth perception, nor on the relative frequency of unilateral and cros‐lateral eye‐hand dominances. Experts, however, were found to be superior in their ability to both recall and recognize rapidly‐presented slides depicting normal game situations, but were no better than novices in recalling information from slides in which the balls were arranged randomly on the table. The expert group's superiority on the perceptual recall and recognition tasks was consistent with a deeper level of encoding for structured (meaningful) material. Experts were also shown, through the use of thinking‐aloud and evaluation paradigms, to use a greater depth of forward planning in choosing appropriate shot options and to evaluate existing situations with greater accuracy, discriminability, and prospective planing than did novices. The cognitive advantage is shown to be a potential contributor but not a total explanation of the superior performance of the experts on the perceptual tasks. The findings of this study are consistent with existing works on expertise in board games and ‘open’ skill sports in indicating that the expert's advantage is not a general but a specific one, arising not from physical capacities but from acquired processing strategies.

T-cell Redirecting Therapies for the Treatment of B-cell Lymphomas: Recent Advances (2021)

T-cell specificity can be redirected against tumor antigens either ex vivo using engineered chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells or in vivo by bridging natural T-cells and tumor cells with bispecific T-cell engager (TCE) antibodies. Currently, four CAR T-cells have been approved by the FDA for the treatment of B-cell lymphomas, including diffuse large B cell lymphomas (DLBCL), mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), and follicular lymphoma (FL). No TCE have yet been approved for the treatment of B-cell lymphomas. However, at least four of them are in clinical development and show promising activity. Here, we review the most recent advances of CAR T-cells and TCE in the treatment of B-cell lymphomas.

Thermal Stability of O−H and O−Alkyl Bonds in N-Alkoxyamines. A Density Functional Theory Approach (1999)

The O−C bond dissociation energy (ΔHro(T)) in alkoxyamines appears to play a key role in the nitroxide-mediated living free radical polymerizations, and an efficient control of the process can be achieved for ΔHro(T) between 20 and 30 kcal/mol. We report in this paper density functional theory calculations of the O−H and O−C bond dissociation energies of different hydroxylamines and alkoxyamines. Optimization procedures, basis set effects, and exchange−correlation functionals are compared and tested against experimental data. Finally, the bond dissociation energy of (N-tert-butyl-1-diethylphosphono-2,2-dimethylpropylnitroxide)-R‘ ‘ (where R‘ ‘ = benzyl, styryl), is reported. This last result is especially important since SG1 is the most efficient to-date nitroxide radical in nitroxide-mediated polymerizations of styrene and acrylates.
A Pseudo-Rigid-Body Model for Functionally Binary Pinned-Pinned Segments Used in Compliant Mechanisms (1999)

Abstract The pseudo-rigid-body model concept allows compliant mechanisms to be analyzed using well-known rigid-body kinematics. This paper presents a pseudo-rigid-body model for initially circular functionally binary pinned-pinned segments that undergo large, nonlinear deflections. The model approximates the functionally binary pinned-pinned segment as three rigid members joined by pin joints. Torsional springs placed at the joints model the segment’s stiffness. This model has been tested by fabricating several such segments from a variety of different materials. An example mechanism incorporating functionally binary pinned-pinned segments is also presented.
Initial beamforming for mmWave communications (2014)

Cellular systems were designed for carrier frequencies in the microwave band (below 3 GHz) but will soon be operating in frequency bands up to 6 GHz. To meet the ever increasing demands for data, deployments in bands above 6 GHz, and as high as 75 GHz, are envisioned. However, as these systems migrate beyond the microwave band, certain channel characteristics can impact their deployment, especially the coverage range. To increase coverage, beamforming can be used but this role of beamforming is different than in current cellular systems, where its primary role is to improve data throughput. Because cellular procedures enable beamforming after a user establishes access with the system, new procedures are needed to enable beamforming during cell discovery and acquisition. This paper discusses several issues that must be resolved in order to use beamforming for access at millimeter wave (mmWave) frequencies, and presents solutions for initial access. Several approaches are verified by computer simulations, and it is shown that reliable network access and satisfactory coverage can be achieved in mmWave frequencies.

A hybrid-SEED smart pixel array for a four-stage intelligent optical backplane demonstrator (1996)

This paper describes the VLSI design, layout, and testing of a Hybrid-SEED smart pixel array for a four-stage intelligent optical backplane. The Hybrid-SEED technology uses CMOS silicon circuitry with GaAs-AlGaAs multiple-quantum-well modulators and detectors. The chip has been designed based on the HyperPlane architecture and is composed of four smart pixels which act as a logical 4-bit parallel optical channel. It has the ability to recognize a 4-bit address header, inject electrical data onto the backplane, retransmit optical data, and extract optical data from the backplane. In addition, the smart pixel array can accommodate for optical inversions and bit permutations by appropriate selections of multiplexers. Initial data pertaining to the electrical performance of the chip will be provided and a complete logical description will be given.
High power semiconductor disk lasers (2005)

We present high-power emission from semiconductor disk lasers. By intra-cavity frequency-doubling of multi-Watt infra-red emission, more than 0.6 W of blue and green have been generated. 200 mW have been achieved directly for red emitters.
Flexible IBE and Beyond in the Commutative-Blinding Framework (2009)

The cryptographic community has, of late, shown much inventiveness in the creation of powerful new IBE-like primitives that go beyond the basic IBE notion and extend it in many new directions. Virtually all of these &amp;ldquo;super-IBE&amp;rdquo; schemes rely on bilinear pairings for their implementation, which they tend to use in a surprisingly small number of different ways: three of them as of this writing.
Generating Client Side Policies for Cyber-Physical Safety (2019)

Cyber phyiscal systems are increasingly connected to the Internet for reasons of convenience and efficiency. However, such cyber-physical systems are exposed to new vulnerabilities since they may be compromised by an attack from the Internet. In addition to traditional network security mechanisms, such systems need additional mechanism which can prevent the exploitation of their physical vulnerabilities. We propose an architecture in which the behavior of the system can be controlled by having it generate the policies for its own protection automatically.
Time-division-multiplexed few-mode passive optical network (2015)

We demonstrate the first few-mode-fiber based passive optical network, effectively utilizing mode multiplexing to eliminate combining loss for upstream traffic. Error-free performance has been achieved for 20-km low-crosstalk 3-mode transmission in a commercial GPON system carrying live Ethernet traffic. The alternative approach of low modal group delay is also analyzed with simulation results over 10 modes.
Optical constants and roughness study of dc magnetron sputtered iridium films (2002)

Extremely smooth thin films of iridium have been deposited onto superpolished fused silica substrates using dc magnetron sputtering in an argon plasma. The influence of deposition process parameters on film microroughness has been investigated. In addition, film optical constants have been determined using variable angle spectroscopic ellipsometry, over the spectral range from vacuum ultraviolet to middle infrared (140 nm–35 μm). Because the Ir films were optically thick and the surface roughnesses were measured by atomic force microscopy then accounted for in the optical model, the as-determined film optical constants are expected to be the best available for Ir bulk metals, minimally affected by surface overlayers or microstructure.
Regenerated fiber Bragg gratings in non-hydrogen-loaded photosensitive fibers for high-temperature sensor networks (2010)

We report about a thermal regeneration of fiber Bragg gratings written in photosensitive fibers without hydrogen loading and with the use of UV nanosecond laser pulses. We observe a complex regenerative process which indicates a secondary grating growth in an optical fiber by thermal activation. This process leads to an increased temperature stability of the gratings up to 600 &deg;C which differs from the commonly known Type I gratings. With the use of an interferometric writing technique it is possible to generate arrays of regenerated fiber Bragg gratings (RFBGs) for sensor networks. The writing conditions of such new type of gratings are investigated and the temperature behavior of these RFBGs is analyzed. This type of gratings is suitable for high temperature sensor networks by combining the attributes of good spectral shape and high reflectivity with high temperature stability showing no drift or hysteresis.
Dietary Patterns and Risk of Gleason Grade Progression among Men on Active Surveillance for Prostate Cancer: Results from the Canary Prostate Active Surveillance Study (2022)

Modifiable lifestyle factors, such as following a healthy dietary pattern may delay or prevent prostate cancer (PCa) progression. However, few studies have evaluated whether following specific dietary patterns after PCa diagnosis impacts risk of disease progression among men with localized PCa managed by active surveillance (AS). 564 men enrolled in the Canary Prostate Active Surveillance Study, a protocol-driven AS study utilizing a pre-specified prostate-specific antigen monitoring and surveillance biopsy regimen, completed a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) at enrollment and had ≥ 1 surveillance biopsy during follow-up. FFQs were used to evaluate adherence to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (Healthy Eating index (HEI))-2015, alternative Mediterranean Diet (aMED), and Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) dietary patterns. Multivariable-adjusted hazards ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals were estimated using Cox proportional hazards models. During a median follow-up of 7.8 years, 237 men experienced an increase in Gleason score on subsequent biopsy (grade reclassification). Higher HEI-2015, aMED or DASH diet scores after diagnosis were not associated with significant reductions in the risk of grade reclassification during AS. However, these dietary patterns have well-established protective effects on chronic diseases and mortality and remain a prudent choice for men with prostate cancer managed by AS.
Trends in Mode of Hysterectomy After the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Power Morcellation Advisory (2017)

Although key perioperative outcomes remained similar, the overall rate of minimally invasive surgery declined at our institution after the FDA's recommendations. With changing practice patterns and vigilance surrounding power morcellation, gynecologic surgeons may still offer patients minimally invasive procedures with all of the accompanying advantages.
Energies Associated with a Meniscus along a Flat Vertical Wall (2022)

In this theoretical work, existing equations for the height and shape of a liquid meniscus along a vertical flat wall are used to estimate the volume and energies associated with its formation. A mechanism and an associated energy balance are proposed. Equations for the work of wetting, surface energy, gravitational energy, and dissipation are derived. This analysis shows that the energy spontaneously released during wetting is either stored in the air-liquid interface of the newly formed meniscus, stored in its bulk liquid as gravitational energy, or dissipated as heat. The absolute magnitude of these energies depends on the surface tension and density of the liquid as well as the wettability of the wall.

Magnetic Films on Self-assembled Nanospheres (2007)

1 Results Nanoparticle media using arrays of monodisperse nanoparticles with high magneticanisotropy are assumed to be the ideal future magnetic recording media. However,key requirements like control of the magnetic anisotropy orientation along with magnetic domain isolation have not been achieved so far. Here, we report on a combination of a two-dimensional topographic pattern formed of self-assembled nanoparticles with sizes as small as 20 nm and magnetic multilayer film deposition[1]. The so formed n...
Aquaporins in Saccharomyces : Characterization of a second functional water channel protein (2001)

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome database contains two ORFs with homology to aquaporins, AQY1 and AQY2. Aqy1p has been shown to be a functional aquaporin in some strains, such as Sigma1278b. AQY2 is disrupted by a stop codon in most strains; however, Sigma1278b has an intact ORF. Because Sigma1278b Aqy2p has an intracellular localization in Xenopus oocytes and in yeast, other strains of yeast were examined. Aqy2p from Saccharomyces chevalieri has a single amino acid in the third transmembrane domain (Ser-141) that differs from Sigma1278b Aqy2p (Pro-141). S. chevalieri Aqy2p is a functional water channel in oocytes and traffics to the plasma membrane of yeast. The Sigma1278b parental strain, the aqy1-aqy2 double null yeast, and null yeast expressing S. chevalieri Aqy2p were examined under various conditions. Comparison of these strains revealed that the aquaporin null cells were more aggregated and their surface was more hydrophobic. As a result, the aquaporin null cells were more flocculent and more efficient at haploid invasive growth. Despite its primary intracellular localization, Sigma1278b Aqy2p plays a role in yeast similar to Aqy1p and S. chevalieri Aqy2p. In addition, Aqy1p and Aqy2p can affect cell surface properties and may provide an advantage by dispersing the cells during starvation or during sexual reproduction.
Modeling the effect of charges in the back side passivation layer on through silicon via (TSV) capacitance after wafer thinning (2015)

Evaluating the importance of electromagnetic (EM) coupling from through silicon vias (TSVs) has become crucial to the design of three-dimensional integrated circuits (3D-ICs). One of the most important parasitic contributions to signal propagation in 3D-ICs is the TSV capacitance. It is both frequency and bias dependent since a TSV is a metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) structure. In this work, anomalous TSV capacitance behavior after wafer thinning is reported and investigated by combining measurements and finite element (FEM) semiconductor simulations. Excellent agreement between models and experimental data confirms the origin of the anomalous TSV capacitance behavior: the presence of fixed charges in the back side (BS) passivation layer of the TSV after wafer thinning. In addition, a BS inversion layer can act as a conductive channel between neighboring vias, increasing the capacitive coupling between TSVs. Calibrated equivalent circuit models of the TSV in contact with a BS inversion layer are proposed for the first time in the context of 3D integration and validated.
Particle-like wave packets in complex scattering systems (2016)

A wave packet undergoes a strong spatial and temporal dispersion while propagating through a complex medium. This wave scattering is often seen as a nightmare in wave physics whether it be for focusing, imaging or communication purposes. Controlling wave propagation through complex systems is thus of fundamental interest in many areas, ranging from optics or acoustics to medical imaging or telecommunications. Here, we study the propagation of elastic waves in a disordered waveguide by means of laser interferometry. We demonstrate how the direct experimental access to the information stored in the scattering matrix of these systems allows us to selectively excite scattering states and wave packets that travel along individual classical trajectories. Due to their limited dispersion, these particle-like scattering states will be crucially relevant for all applications involving selective wave focusing and efficient information transfer through complex media.
Introduction to Discrete Wavelet Transform (2004)

In this chapter we have discussed the theoretical foundation of the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) both for convolution and lifting based approaches. We have discussed the concept of multiresolution analysis feature of the wavelet transform which makes it suitable for its application in image compression. We have discussed the pyramid algorithm for implementation of the DWT using the multiresolution approach. We have also discussed how the DWT is extended to two-dimensional signals as well. The multiresolution analysis based discrete wavelet transform is the foundation of the new JPEG2000 standard. Lifting based implementation of Discrete Wavelet Transform is new and became very popular for a number of efficient features in it. We have discussed the underlying theory behind the lifting algorithm for DWT and show how it is implemented via banded matrix multiplication. We have shown examples of the lifting factorization for the two default wavelet filter kernels (9, 7) and (5, 3) in the JPEG2000 standard. We have discussed the advantages of lifting based DWT over the traditional convolution based approach.
Visualizing large-scale IP traffic flows (2007)

Hierarchical Network Maps are a scalable approach to the presentation of IP-related measurements on the global Internet. This study focuses on how to extend them for emphasizing the source destination relationship of network traffic aggregated on IP prefix, autonomous system, country, or continent. Edge bundles consisting of several spline curves visually group traffic that shares common ancestor nodes along the IP/AS hierarchy.
