The optical fiber used as a microwave delay line exhibits high stability and low noise and makes accessible a long delay (& 100 μs) in a wide bandwidth (≈ 40 GHz, limited by the optronic components). Hence, it finds applications as the frequency reference in microwave oscillators and as the reference discriminator for the measurement of phase noise. The fiber is suitable to measure the oscillat...

We demonstrate that characteristic nodules emerge in cultures of several malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) cell lines. Instead of excessive local cell proliferation, MPM nodules arise in culture by Myosin II-driven cell contractility. Accordingly, the aggregation process can be prevented or reversed by suitable pharmacological inhibitors of Myosin II activity. A cell-resolved elasto-plastic ...

During DNA replication, the advance of replication forks is tightly connected with chromatin assembly, a process that can be impaired by the partial depletion of histone H4 leading to recombinogenic DNA damage. Here, we show that the partial depletion of H4 is rapidly followed by the collapse of unperturbed and stalled replication forks, even though the S-phase checkpoints remain functional. Th...

A highly malignant human T-cell leukemia was identified by cell surface analysis as a member of the T-cell receptor (TCR) yS lineage. Cytogenetic and molecular analysis showed a novel t(8;14)(q24;qll) rearrangement involving the J,, gene segment on chromosome 14 and the distal end of chromosome 8 near the c-myc proto-oncogene locus. The yS TCR of the leukemia blasts was functionally intact and ...
