BACKGROUND To analyze setup deviations using daily megavoltage computed tomography (MVCT) and to evaluate three MVCT frequency reducing protocols for gynecologic cancer patients treated with helical tomotherapy. METHODS We recorded the setup errors of 56 patients with gynecological cancer observed throughout their whole course by matching their daily MVCT with the planning CT. Systematic and ...

OBJECTIVE CD4+ T cells from patients with active lupus have impaired ERK pathway signaling that decreases DNA methyltransferase expression, resulting in DNA demethylation, overexpression of immune genes, and autoimmunity. The ERK pathway defect is due to impaired phosphorylation of T(505) in the protein kinase Cδ (PKCδ) activation loop. However, the mechanisms that prevent PKCδ T(505) phospho...

We have studied the cytoskeletal association of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1, CD54), an integral membrane protein that functions as a counterreceptor for leukocyte integrins (CD11/CD18). A linkage between ICAM-1 and cytoskeletal elements was suggested by studies showing a different ICAM-1 staining pattern for COS cells transfected with wild-type ICAM-1 or with an ICAM-1 construct t...

In recent years, Franz Liszt has garnered increasing interest among music theorists for his innovations in harmony and form. However, little attention has been given to rhythmic aspects of his compositional style: in particular, he frequently incorporates rich rhythmic structures in which the meter written in the score and the meter perceived by the listener are locked in an evolving conflict. ...
