Excess lipid droplets are frequently observed in arterial endothelial cells at sites of advanced atherosclerotic plaques. Here, the role tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF?) modulating low-density lipoprotein (LDL) content confluent primary human aortic (pHAECs) was investigated. TNF? promoted an up to 2 folds increase cellular cholesterol, which resistant ACAT inhibition. The cholesterol associa...

The joint distribution of a geometric Brownian motion and its time-integral was derived in seminal paper by Yor (1992) using Lamperti’s transformation, leading to explicit solutions terms modified Bessel functions. In this paper, we revisit classic result the simple Laplace transform approach connection Heun differential equation. We extend methodology with affine drift show that process can be...

M-1 cells, derived from a microdissected cortical collecting duct of a transgenic mouse, grown to confluence on a permeable support, develop a lumen-negative amiloride-sensitive transepithelial potential, reabsorb sodium, and secrete potassium. Electron micrographs show morphological features typical of principal cells in vivo. Using the patch clamp technique distinct differences are detected i...

We studied thrombin binding to proliferating and confluent endothelial cells derived from bovine vascular endothelium. [125]thrombin was incubated with nonconfluent or confluent endothelial cells and both the total amount bound and the amount linked in a 77,000-dalton thrombin-cell complex were determined. Approximately 230,000 molecules of thrombin bound per cell in nonconfluent cultures compa...

In this note we present a simple proof of a result of Toyama which states that the disjoint union of confluent term rewriting systems is confluent. 1985 Mathematics Subject Classification: 68Q5

Transcription of ribosomal RNA genes is generally accepted to correlate with cell growth. Using primary cultures of adult bovine aortic endothelial (ABAE) cells, we have shown that transcription of rDNA in confluent cells falls to 5% of the transcription level in growing cells. Protein kinase NII appears to be a limiting factor to promote rDNA transcription in isolated nuclei of confluent cells...

By U.K. GHOSH Semapur Factory, Purnea District A male, aged about 55 years, attended hospital, 7th May, 1941, with fever, pain and a few erUP ?a3 on his face. He was kept under observation and T", given alkali with sodium salicylate mixture. On the eruptions were worse, smallpox was diagnosed a the man was segregated. Gradually, it conformed the confluent type and he had small punctiform rhages...

We examined the effect of fibroblast growth factor (FGF) on proteoglycan synthesis by rabbit costal chondrocyte cultures maintained on plastic tissue culture dishes. Low density rabbit costal chondrocyte cultures grown in the absence of FGF gave rise at confluency to a heterogeneous cell population composed of fibroblastic cells and poorly differentiated chondrocytes. When similar cultures were...

Hong Kong UST, [email protected] Abstract Dynamic Flows were introduced by Ford and Fulkerson in 1958 to model flows over time. They differ from standard network flows by defining edge capacities to be the total amount of flow that can enter an edge in one...

The efficient parsing algorithms are usually confined to confluent graph grammars in context-sensitive formalisms, whereas the confluence condition is not frequently met by graph grammars in practical applications. This paper, based on the Reserved Graph Grammar (RGG) formalism, proposes an extended formalism XRGG which allows imposing constraints characterizing application situations on graph ...
