We have investigated in bovine left ventricular coronary arteries the relation between the biochemical regulatory event of myosin light chain phosphorylation and the mechanical events of isometric stress and isotonic shortening, under conditions of stimulation by depolarization (65 mM KCl) or receptor occupancy (2 microM 5-hydroxytryptamine [5-HT]). At rest, levels of light chain phosphorylatio...

Let T be a triangle with two specified vertices v0, v1 ∈ Z2. A convex lattice chain in T from v0 to v1 is defined naturally (see the next paragraph). In this paper we prove what the maximal length of a convex lattice chain is if the area of T is fixed (and large). It is also shown that the solution is unique apart from lattice preserving affine transformations.

In this paper, we present a new simple axiomatization of useful topologies, i.e., topologies on an arbitrary set, with respect to which every continuous total preorder admits utility representation. particular, show that, for completely regular spaces, topology is useful, if and only it separable, isolated chain open closed sets countable. As specific application optimization theory, characteri...

Abstract. We provide a direct proof that a finite graded lattice with a maximal chain of left modular elements is supersolvable. This result was first established via a detour through EL-labellings in [MT] by combining results of McNamara [Mc] and Liu [Li]. As part of our proof, we show that the maximum graded quotient of the free product of a chain and a single-element lattice is finite and di...

Certainly 0R ∈ A. Let a, b ∈ A. Then a ∈ An and b ∈ Am for some n,m ∈ N. Without loss of generality, assume n ≤ m. This means An ⊆ Am. So we have a, b ∈ Am. Since Am is a subring, it follows that −a ∈ Am, a + b ∈ Am, and ab ∈ Am. So also −a ∈ A, a + b ∈ A and ab ∈ A. This means A is closed under additive inverses, addition, and multiplication, so A is a subring of R. Let r ∈ R. Since An is an i...

Mitochondrial membrane potential (mtMP) is critical for maintaining the physiological function of the respiratory chain to generate ATP. The present study characterized the inter-relationship between mtMP, using safranin and tetramethyl rhodamine methyl ester (TMRM), and mitochondrial respiratory activity and established a protocol for functional analysis of mitochondrial bioenergetics in a mul...

In this paper we study the normalizer decomposition of a compact Lie group G using information fusion system F on maximal discrete p-toral subgroup. We prove that there is an injective map from set conjugacy classes chains F-centric, F-radical subgroups to p-centric, p-stubborn continuous subgroups. The bijection when π0(G) finite p-group. also classifying space chain mod p equivalent correspon...

Let V be a vector space over a field F . If G≤GL(V, F ), the central dimension of G is the F -dimension of the vector space V/CV (G). In [DEK] and [KS], soluble linear groups in which the set Licd(G) of all proper infinite central dimensional subgroups of G satisfies the minimal condition and the maximal condition, respectively, have been described. On the other hand, in [MOS], periodic locally...

Polysialic acid (polySia) is a promising molecule for various medical applications (e.g., treatment of inflammatory neurodegenerative diseases). In this study a complete production process for human-identical α-(2,8)-linked polySia was developed using a disposable bioreactor for cultivation of Escherichia coli K1 and single-use membrane adsorbers for downstream processing (DSP). The cultivation...
