background: nowadays, highly specific aptamers generated by cell selex technology (systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment) are being applied for early detection of cancer cells. prostate specific membrane antigen (psma), over expressed in prostate cancer, is a highly specific marker and therefore can be used for diagnosis of the prostate cancer cells. the aim of the present s...

Triple A syndrome (Allgrove syndrome) is a rare inherited autosomal recessive disease with a typical triad including adrenocorticotrophic-hormone-resistant glucocorticoid insufficiency, reduced or absent tearing (alacrima) and achalasia and a wide range of symptoms can be detected due to multi organ involvement. This report describes the case of a Triple Asyndrome, a12 year-old boy with a histo...

We review the Batalin-Vilkovisky quantization procedure for Yang–Mills theory on a 2-point space. 1) Talk given at the 5-th International Conference ”Renormalization Group 2002”, Tatranska Strba, Slovakia, March 10-16, 2002 2) Email: [email protected] 1 In this talk we give a short summary of [1], where we proposed the quantization of one of the simplest toy models for noncommutative...

Acetylcholine (ACh), an ubiquitous mediator substance broadly expressed in nature, acts as neurotransmitter in cholinergic synapses, generating specific communications with different time-courses. (1) Ultrafast transmission. Vertebrate neuromuscular junctions (NMJs) and nerve-electroplaque junctions (NEJs) are the fastest cholinergic synapses; able to transmit brief impulses (1–4 ms) at high fr...

Aging is the most important risk factor in cardiovascular disease (CVD), which is the leading causes of death worldwide and the second major cause of death in Taiwan. The major factor in heart failure during aging is heart remodeling, including long-term stress-induced cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis. Exercise is good for aging heart health, but the impact of exercise training on aging is not ...
