The detection superoxide production in vascular cells is usually limited by a low sensitivity of available assays. We tested the applicability of the luminol derivate L-012 ¿8-amino-5-chloro-7-phenylpyridol¿3,4-dpyridazine-1,4(2H,3H)dione to measure superoxide production in cultured endothelial cells (human umbilical vein endothelial cells) and rat aortic segments. Following stimulation with t...

The theory of respectively interpretation proposed in Yatabe and Tam (2021) "In defense an HPSG-based non-constituent coordination" (Linguistics Philosophy 44, pp. 1-77) entails that Binding Conditions A B need to be formulated as constraints on the form semantic representations. It is possible formulate two binding conditions such if anaphoric relations are encoded representations a way analog...

Egg drop syndrome virus (EDSV) can markedly decrease egg production in laying hens. Duck is the natural host of EDSV. EDSV derived from ducks abrogate egg drop in laying hens. We have previously confirmed that duck-derived EDSVs have a variety of replication activities in chick embryo liver (CEL) cells. However, it is currently unclear whether duck-derived EDSV could display tropism and adaptat...

Hematite (α-Fe2O3) persists as a promising candidate for photoelectrochemical water splitting, but a slow oxygen evolution reaction (OER) at its surfaces remains a limitation. Here we extend a series of studies that examine pH-dependent surface potentials and electron-transfer properties of effectively perfect low-index crystal faces of hematite in contact with simple electrolyte. Zero-resistan...

Abstract So-called respectively readings have posed serious challenges for theories of syntax and semantics. Sentences like George and Martha respectively denounced and were denounced by the governor (McCawley 1998) show that although the conjoined verbal expressions share the same syntactic subject, they do not predicate that subject in the same way; George (not Martha) denounced the governor,...
