Experimental Study of the 238U(36S,3-5n)269-271Hs Reaction Leading to the Observation of 270Hs
The deformed doubly magic nucleus (270)Hs has so far only been observed as the four-neutron (4n) evaporation residue of the reaction Mg-26+Cm-248, where a maximum cross section of 3 pb was measured. Theoretical studies on the formation of (270)Hs in the 4n evaporation channel of fusion reactions with different entrance channel asymmetry in the framework of a two-parameter Smoluchowski equation pre
Modeling pathophysiological aspects of Parkinson’s disease: Manipulating DA handling and alpha-synuclein expression in the nigrostriatal pathway using viral vectors
The pathological hallmark of Parkinson’s disease is dopaminergic neurodegeneration in the substantia nigra pars compacta neurons and accumulation of α-synuclein containing aggregates in the surviving neurons. The cause of cell death in Parkinson’s disease and the involvement of α-synuclein in the pathophysiology of the disease are unknown. Although other neuronal cell types exhibit α-synuclein pos

Experimental and theoretical evidence for the chemical mechanism in SERRS of rhodamine 6G adsorbed on colloidal silver excited at 1064 nm
The evidence for the existence of a chemical mechanism in surface-enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS) of rhodamine 6G (R6G) adsorbed on colloidal silver excited at 1064 nm is reported on the basis of experimental and theoretical analyses. A weak absorption peak at around 1060 nm for R6G-functionalized silver nanoparticles was observed, which is not present in the individual spectra of R6G
Potential of multi-photon upconversion emissions for fluorescence diffuse optical imaging
The spatial resolution of fluorescence molecular imaging is a critical issue for the success of the technique in biomedical applications. One important method for increasing the imaging resolution is to utilize multi-photon emissions. In this study, we thoroughly investigate the potential of the multi-photon upconversion emissions from rare-earth-doped upconverting nanoparticles for the improvemen

Isomeric States In 208Hg And 209Tl Populated In Fragmentation Of 238U
The nuclear structure of neutron-rich N > 126 nuclei has been investigated following their production via relativistic projectile fragmentation of a E/A = 1 GeV U-238 beam on a Be target. The preliminary analysis indicates the presence of previously unreported isomeric states in the N = 128 isotones Hg-208 and Tl-209.
Transgenic systems for unequivocal identification of cardiac myocyte nuclei and analysis of cardiomyocyte cell cycle status
Even though the mammalian heart has been investigated for many years, there are still uncertainties in the fields of cardiac cell biology and regeneration with regard to exact fractions of cardiomyocytes (CMs) at different developmental stages, their plasticity after cardiac lesion and also their basal turnover rate. A main shortcoming is the accurate identification of CM and the demonstration of

Treatment with the C5a receptor antagonist ADC-1004 reduces myocardial infarction in a porcine ischemia-reperfusion model
Background: Polymorphonuclear neutrophils, stimulated by the activated complement factor C5a, have been implicated in cardiac ischemia/reperfusion injury. ADC-1004 is a competitive C5a receptor antagonist that has been shown to inhibit complement related neutrophil activation. ADC-1004 shields the neutrophils from C5a activation before they enter the reperfused area, which could be a mechanistic a
Scientific (wo)manpower - gender and the composition and earnings of PhDs in Sweden
Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to investigate to what extent male and female PhDs choose academic vs non-academic employment. Further, it analyses gender earnings differences in the academic and non-academic labour markets. Design/methodology/approach - Rich Swedish cross-sectional register data on the stock of PhDs in 2004 is used for investigating differences between male and female PhDs
Genome-Wide Expression Profiling and Mutagenesis Studies Reveal that Lipopolysaccharide Responsiveness Appears To Be Absolutely Dependent on TLR4 and MD-2 Expression and Is Dependent upon Intermolecular Ionic Interactions
Lipid A (a hexaacylated 1,4' bisphosphate) is a potent immune stimulant for TLR4/MD-2. Upon lipid A ligation, the TLR4/MD-2 complex dimerizes and initiates signal transduction. Historically, studies also suggested the existence of TLR4/MD-2-independent LPS signaling. In this article, we define the role of TLR4 and MD-2 in LPS signaling by using genome-wide expression profiling in TLR4- and MD-2-de
Low Plasma Level of Atrial Natriuretic Peptide Predicts Development of Diabetes: The Prospective Malmo Diet and Cancer Study.
Context:The cardiac natriuretic peptides are involved in blood pressure regulation, and large cross-sectional studies have shown lower plasma levels of N-terminal pro-natriuretic peptide levels [N-terminal atrial natriuretic peptide (N-ANP) and N-terminal brain natriuretic peptide (N-BNP)] in patients with insulin resistance, obesity, and diabetes.Objective:In this study, we prospectively tested w
The cooling capacity of mosses : controls on water and energy fluxes in a siberian tundra site
Arctic tundra vegetation composition is expected to undergo rapid changes during the coming decades because of changes in climate. Higher air temperatures generally favor growth of deciduous shrubs, often at the cost of moss growth. Mosses are considered to be very important to critical tundra ecosystem processes involved in water and energy exchange, but very little empirical data are available.
Opsin evolution and expression in Arthropod compound Eyes and Ocelli: Insights from the cricket Gryllus bimaculatus
Background: Opsins are key proteins in animal photoreception. Together with a light-sensitive group, the chromophore, they form visual pigments which initiate the visual transduction cascade when photoactivated. The spectral absorption properties of visual pigments are mainly determined by their opsins, and thus opsins are crucial for understanding the adaptations of animal eyes. Studies on the ph

A 4.35-mW +22-dBm IIP3 continuously tunable channel select filter for WLAN/WiMax receivers in 90-nm CMOS
A low-power high linearity CMOS G(m)-C channel select filter for WLAN/WiMax receivers in 90-nm CMOS technology is presented. To reduce power consumption a biquad cell with simple architecture and few devices is used. A simple but efficient technique is also used to improve the linearity of the filter without increasing its power consumption. The cutoff frequency of the sixth order Butterworth low-
Shape Coexistence, Triaxial Shape and Band Terminations at High Spin
Selected high-spin bands in A = 120-170 nuclei are interpreted within the configuration-constrained Cranked Nilsson-Strutinsky formalism with pairing neglected (CNS) and with pairing included (CNSB). A few bands in Lu/Hf nuclei which have been interpreted as formed at large triaxial deformation are reinterpreted as rotational bands at small deformation approaching termination. The differences betw
