The preparation of rhenium based octahedral clusters containing N-heterocyclic carbenes is described. These represent the first examples of [M6(μ3-Q)8](n+) or [M6(μ3-X)8](n+) clusters to contain a carbene ligand of any type (NHC, Fischer or Schrock). Surprisingly, the NHC ligands attenuate their luminescent properties.

mAbs 10A11, 10B6, and 10F5, raised against the native group A streptococcal M6 protein, were examined for their crossreactivity with non-laboratory passaged clinical isolates, representing 58 M serotypes, by bacterial dot blot immunoassay. mAb 10A11 crossreacted with 9, mAb 10B6 with 30, and mAb 10F5 with 30 different non-M6 serotypes. To identify the epitopes for these antibodies, the native M...

Patients with acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML) with monosomy 7 are a group of patients with refractory AML who have a very poor prognosis. Therefore, rationally designed new therapies, including metronomic chemotherapy regimen with histidine deacetylase inhibitors (Valporic acid, ATRA) are being investigated as potential treatments for the population of refractory cases of AML. Herein, we repo...

Objectives: A novel flow cytometric ‘AML Maturity Score (AMS)’ classifying patients into AML-immature (AML-im) and AML-mature (AML-ma) based on CD34, CD117 Tdt expression blasts correlated with induction remission, relapse free survival overall in previous studies. We aimed to study the correlation between AMS ELN risk group outcomes- remission (IR), time (TTR) relapse.
 Material Methods: ...

Background Following the European Society of Hypertension International Protocol (ESH-IP) Revision 2010, QardioArm® and Omron M6 Comfort IT® oscillometric devices were evaluated in the general population and in patients with type II diabetes, respectively, for self-blood pressure (BP) measurement. Methods Both devices, QardioArm® and Omron M6 Comfort®, measure BP at the brachial level. The ES...

Metallothionein, a two-domain protein, naturally binds seven gram atoms of divalent ions such as Zn and Cd. Four of the metals (M1, M5, M6 and M7) are found in the alpha-domain and three (M2, M3 and M4) in the beta-domain. Previous studies have shown that metals in the beta-domain are more readily exchangeable, and the level of avidity is site specific. By semi-empirical MNDO modified neglect o...

Via Study’s kinematic mapping S the 6-parametric Lie group SE(3) of direct Euclidean displacements can be identified with a certain hyperquadric M6 in 7-dimensional real projective space. The mapping has nice geometric properties; for instance one parametric rotation groups are represented by straight lines on M6, coordinate transformations in Euclidean 3-space are represented by special automo...
