This paper examines how subsistence farmers respond to extreme heat. Using microdata from Peruvian households, we find that high temperatures reduce agricultural productivity, increase area planted, and change crop mix. These findings are consistent with using input adjustments as a short-term mechanism attenuate the effect of heat on output. response seems complement other coping strategies, s...

By analysis of a series of somatic cell hybrids derived by fusion of either mouse or Chinese hamster cells with leukocytes from different chronic myelocytic leukemia (CML) patients or from normal donors, we have localized the human oncogene, c-sis, on the q11 to qter segment of chromosome 22 and demonstrated its translocation from chromosome 22 to chromosome 9 (q34) in CML.

Lys16 is present in the core region of the amyloid β (Aβ) self-assembly in Alzheimer's disease. Here we report that the P9-NCS peptide can covalently react with Lys16 and inhibit Aβ neurotoxic fibrillization. Moreover P9-NCS has high selectivity and it cannot react with amylin, insulin, fetal bovine serum, Q11 and MUC1 peptide.

Trisomy 16q is reported in a malformed infant who died at 12 days of age. The karyotype was 46,XX,der(15)t(15;16) (p11;q11)mat. A balanced translocation was found in the mother. The consequences of various types of aneuploidy of chromosome 16 are discussed.
