BACKGROUND: The Notch pathway is frequently activated in cancer. Pathway inhibition by γ-secretase inhibitors has been shown to be effective in pre-clinical models of pancreatic cancer, in combination with gemcitabine. METHODS...
We discuss the diagnostics available to study the 5-10 MK plasma in the solar
corona, which is key to understanding the heating in the cores of solar active
regions. We present several simulated spectra, and show that...
BACKGROUND: Megakaryocytes (MKs) originate from cells immuno-phenotypically indistinguishable from hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), bypassing intermediate progenitors. They mature within the adult bone marrow and release...
The implications of stem cell heterogeneity for disease pathogenesis and therapy are poorly defined. JAK2V617F+ myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), harboring the same mutation in hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), display diverse...
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: To report the incidence, microbiological profile and in-vitro antimicrobial susceptibilities of microbial keratitis (MK) in the East of England (EoE) over a 6-year period. SUBJECTS/METHODS: A retrospective...
AbstractWe introduce a general framework that constructs estimators with reduced variance for random walk Metropolis and Metropolis-adjusted Langevin algorithms. The resulting estimators require...
AbstractC-type shocks are believed to be ubiquitous in turbulent molecular clouds thanks to ambipolar diffusion. We investigate whether the drag instability in 1D isothermal...
Discussions of domestication and its associated genetic traits has focused upon dispersal mechanisms, for example in the rachis structure of cereals. Here we consider another trait of importance to domesticated crops –...
BACKGROUND: Supracondylar fractures are common in children and are associated with significant morbidity. The purpose of our study was to assess and compare the clinical and radiological outcome of management of supracondylar...
AbstractWe introduce a general framework that constructs estimators with reduced variance for random walk Metropolis and Metropolis-adjusted Langevin algorithms. The resulting estimators require...
Two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) with high mobility, engineered in semiconductor heterostructures host a variety of ordered phases arising from strong correlations, which emerge at sufficiently low temperatures. The 2DEG...

The kinetics of water transport into tablets, and how it can be controlled by the formulation as well as the tablet microstructure, are of central importance in order to design and control the dissolution and drug release...
RATIONALE: Maladaptive impulsivity is symptomatic of several neuropsychiatric disorders including schizophrenia, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and substance abuse disorders; paradigms designed to assess the...
AbstractWe present a species distribution model (SDM) of Fagopyrum esculentum (buckwheat) in China using present distribution data and estimates for the past based on...
