purpose the aim of this study was to investigat the offensive efficiency of the professional handball players forming the front and rear lines. methods our investigation was carried out on four matches (final, semi-finals and classifying match) at the 19th male handball world championship “tunisia 2005”. finalist teams were tunisia, france, croatia, and spain. matches were recorded using 5 digi...

BACKGROUND Despite optimal primary treatment of ovarian cancer, overall prognosis is poor due to recurrences. While steroid hormone receptors are frequently expressed, the role of estrogen receptor (ER) in ovarian carcinogenesis, response to treatment or prognosis has not been established. We analyzed the gene-expression in response to estradiol (E2) and genistein (Gen) in ovarian cancer cells....

BACKGROUND The tyrosine kinase receptor comprises a subclass of cell surface growth factor receptors. Inhibition of certain members of the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) family is an effective treatment approach in some cancers. The anti-tumor effects are greater when this approach is combined with inhibition of the ERBB2 receptors. These studies provide novel experimental data demonst...

The brassinosteroid (BR) phytohormones play crucial roles in regulating plant cell growth and morphogenesis, particularly in hypocotyl cell elongation. The microtubule cytoskeleton is also known to participate in the regulation of hypocotyl elongation. However, it is unclear if BR regulation of hypocotyl elongation involves the microtubule cytoskeleton. In this study, we demonstrate that BRs me...

bacteriorhodopsin (br) is a retinal protein that is a light-driven proton pump and has an important role in photosynthesis in archaebacterium halobacterium salinarum. the br molecule absorbs light and photochemical changes occur in it, and different intermediates will be produced in its photochemical cycle that some of them like p and q intermediates have a long half-life. there have been many ...

Abstract We develop a technique, pseudo-suspension, that applies to invariant sets of homeomorphisms class annulus we describe, Handel–Anosov–Katok (HAK) homeomorphisms, generalize the homeomorphism first described by Handel. Given HAK and Cantor set, pseudo-suspension yields new space combines features both original homeomorphisms. This allows us answer well known open question providing examp...

Surface Homeomorphisms That Do Not Extend to Any Handlebody and the Johnson Filtration

Notes for the summer school Symbolic dynamics and homeomorphisms of the Cantor set,

The main result of this paper is a universal finiteness theorem for the set of all small dilatation pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms φ : S → S, ranging over all surfaces S. More precisely, we consider pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms φ : S → S with |χ(S)| log(λ(φ)) bounded above by some constant, and we prove that, after puncturing the surfaces at the singular points of the stable foliations, the resul...
