A ll sterols that appear on the right side of each molecular umbrella framework shown in the Abstract, Text, and Table of Contents should have been drawn with the natural stereochemistry of cholic acid shown below and not that of its enantiomer: This is an open access article published under an ACS AuthorChoice License, which permits copying and redistribution of the article or any adaptations ...

In this research, a literature review was conducted where twenty (n=20) frameworks and models highlighting preservation of the integrity of digital evidence and protection of basic human rights during digital forensic investigations were studied. The models not discussing the process at an abstract level were excluded. Therefore, thirteen (n=13) of the studied models were included in our analys...

Here we discuss three separate topics of charmonium. (1) The Omicron O as 1 −− trigluonia, and the charmonium puzzle; the η ′ c (3600) search. (2) The decay ψ(1 P 1) → π o + J/ψ and isospin violating charmonium decays. (3) How to search for χ ′ c = χc(2P) charmonium states. Introduction I wish to thank the Chair of the Organizing Committee of Hadron '95, Sandy Donnachie, for choosing for me the...

Urothelial umbrella cells are characterized by apical, rigid membrane plaques, which contain four major uroplakin proteins (UP Ia, Ib, II and III) forming UPIa/UPII and UPIb/UPIII pairs. These integral membrane proteins are thought to play an important role in maintaining the physical integrity and the permeability barrier function of the urothelium. We asked whether the four uroplakins always ...

oligonucleotides and gene therapies may also be included under the umbrella term of biological agents.

Free energy calculations of the potential of mean force (PMF) based on the combination of targeted molecular dynamics (TMD) simulations and umbrella samplings as a function of physical coordinates have been applied to explore the detailed pathways and the corresponding free energy profiles for the conformational transition processes of the butane molecule and the 35-residue villin headpiece sub...

In this study, an umbrella-shaped device that is used for osteonecrosis treatment is simulated. The femoral head is subjected to various complex loadings as a result of a person's daily movements. Implant devices used in the body are made of shape memory alloy materials because of their remarkable resistance to wear and corrosion, good biocompatibility, and variable mechanical properties. Since...

The uroepithelium of the bladder forms an impermeable barrier that is maintained in part by regulated membrane turnover in the outermost umbrella cell layer. Other than bladder filling, few physiological regulators of this process are known. Western blot analysis established that all four adenosine receptors (A1, A2a, A2b, and A3) are expressed in the uroepithelium. A1 receptors were prominentl...
