Due to the higher hydrogen solubility and diffusivity, gadolinium sesquioxide (Gd2O3) could be expected as a proton conductive material. In this study, monoclinic Gd2O3 was used evaluate possible conductivity in Ar (?Ar), Ar+4% H2 (?H2), D2 (?D2), Ar+H2O (?H2O), Ar+D2O (?D2O), O2 (?O2) atmospheres temperature range from 500°C 1000°C, understand its application DT fuel system of nuclear fusion r...

Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women and the leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide. Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an important phenotype of breast cancer that accounts for a relatively small number of breast cancer cases but still represent a focus of increasing interest at the clinical, biological, and epidemiological level. Claudins are the major component of t...

The reactivity of a series of Ga(I), Ga(II) and Ga(III) heterocyclic compounds towards a number of Group 15 substrates has been investigated with a view to prepare examples of gallium-terminal pnictinidene complexes. Although no examples of such complexes were isolated, a number of novel complexes have been prepared. The reactions of the gallium(I) N-heterocyclic carbene analogue, [K(tmeda)][:G...

BACKGROUND Studies concerning spectral gradient acoustic reflectometry (SG-AR) have analyzed middle ear effusion only as 1 entity. The usefulness of SG-AR to detect specific otoscopic diagnoses of otitis media in young children is unknown. METHODS Among 515 children aged 6-35 months, we compared SG-AR with pneumatic otoscopy and evaluated the proportions of 5 manufacturer-recommended SG-AR le...

A series of cationic diazoalkane complexes [4-RC(6)H(4)C(H)NNMo(N[t-Bu]Ar)(3)][AlCl(4)], [1-R][AlCl(4)] (R = NMe(2), Me, H, Br, CN; Ar = 3,5-C(6)H(3)Me(2)) has been prepared by treatment of the N(2)-derived diazenido complex Me(3)SiNNMo(N[t-Bu]Ar)(3) with 4-RC(6)H(4)CHO and 2 equiv of AlCl(3). The structures of [1-H][AlCl(4)] and [1-NMe(2)][AlCl(4)] were determined by X-ray crystallography. The...

Reactions of alkyl aryl sulfoxides H-CRR'S(O)Ar with n-BuLi-TMEDA (TMEDA = N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine) afforded α-sulfinyl functionalized alkyl aryl lithium compounds of the type [Li2{CRR'S(O)Ar}2(TMEDA)2] (1, R/R' = H/H, Ar = Ph; 2, R/R' = H/H, Ar = p-Tol; 3, R/R' = Me/Me, Ar = Ph; 4, R/R' = H/Ph, Ar = Ph; 5, R/R' = Me/Ph, Ar = Ph). The compounds were characterized by (1)H, (13)C and...

Enzalutamide (MDV3100) is a second generation Androgen Receptor (AR) antagonist with proven efficacy in the treatment of castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). The majority of treated patients, however, develop resistance and disease progression and there is a critical need to identify novel targetable pathways mediating resistance. The purpose of this study was to develop and extensively...
