On the basis of mouse I-Ab-binding motifs, two sequences of the murine apolipoprotein B-100 (mApoB-100), mApoB-1003501-3515 (designated P3) and mApoB-100978-992 (designated P6), were found to be immunogenic. In this report, we show that P6 is also atherogenic. Immunization of Apoe-/- mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD) with P6 resulted in enhanced development of aortic atheroma as compared to contro...

The reactivities of 5,5’-Dithiobis (2-nitrobenzoate) with the sulphydryl groups of major haemoglobin of duck (Anas platyrhinchos) have been carried out in the presence of inositol hexakisphosphate, inositol-P6. The time course of the reaction is biphasic. The addition of inositol-P6 changed the pH dependence profile of the apparent second-order rate constant of both oxyand carbonmonoxyhaemoglob...

The proteolytic processing of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) particles mediated by the viral pol-encoded protease (PR) is essential for viral infectivity. The pol coding sequence partially overlaps with the gag coding sequence and is translated as a Gag-Pol polyprotein precursor. Within Gag-Pol, the C-terminal p6(gag) domain is replaced by a transframe peptide referred to as p6*, which sepa...

We present P6, a declarative language for building high performance visual analytics systems through its support specifying and integrating machine learning interactive visualization methods. As data analysis methods based on artificial intelligence continue to advance, solution can leverage these better exploiting large complex data. However, with is challenging. Existing programming libraries...

An investigation was carried out at the Research Farm of Olericulture Division of Horticulture Research Centre of Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute (BARI) to evaluate the heterotic performance in F1 generation of tomato. The hybrids showed significant variation in heterosis. The highest heterobeltiotic effects were observed in the cross P3 x P8 (-18.46%) for earliness, P1 x P6 (8.57 %)...

In this paper we will study the complexity of 4-colorability in subclasses of P6-free graphs. The well known k-colorability problem is NP -complete. It has been shown that if k-colorability is solvable in polynomial time for an induced H-free graph, then every component of H is a path. Recently, Huang [11] has shown several improved complexity results on k-coloring Pt-free graphs, where Pt is a...

OBJECTIVE To compare two internal fixation devices clinically in stabilisation of intertrochanteric femur fractures. METHODS Eighty-seven patients were randomised upon their admission to the hospital using a sealed envelope method. Forty-five were treated with proximal femur nail antirotation (PFNA) and 42 with reverse less invasive stabilisation system (LISS). The perioperative data were rec...

The effects of acupuncture on health are generally hard to assess. Stimulation of the P6 acupuncture point is used to obtain an antiemetic effect and this provides an excellent model to study the efficacy of acupuncture. Thirty-three controlled trials have been published worldwide in which the P6 acupuncture point was stimulated for treatment of nausea and/or vomiting associated with chemothera...

OBJECTIVE Malposition of the femoral Less Invasive Stabilization System (LISS) plate may alter its biomechanical behavior. This study compares the mechanical stability of "correctly" affixed LISS plates matching the slope of the lateral femoral condyle to "incorrectly" placed LISS plates fixed in external rotation relative to the distal femur. METHODS A fracture gap model was created to simul...

BACKGROUND The safe transfusion of patients with warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia requires an efficient and time-saving assay to detect alloantibodies underlying autoantibodies. Methods used include RBCs treated with ZZAP reagent, proteolytic enzyme, or untreated RBCs in the presence of PEG. We propose a method using LISS, which presents some advantages over previous methods. STUDY DESIGN AND...
