The growth and reproduction complex (grc~) strains of rats have a 70-kilobase deletion in the major histocompatibility complex (MHQlinked grc-GIC region that is associated with embryonic death, develop mental defects, and an increased susceptibility to chemical carcinogens. To study further the effects associated with the deletion, fibroblastic cell lines from grc~, grc*, and grc*'~ rat embryos...

I. Hancu, S. Adak, E. Hutchison, R. Hurd GE GRC, Niskayuna, NY, United States, GE GRC, Bangalore, India, Union College, Schenectady, NY, United States, GE ASL, Menlo Park, CA, United States Introduction Longitudinal MRS studies to assess the progress of a disease [1] or the efficacy of a drug [2] are increasingly common. For these studies it is of utmost importance that the MRS measurements are...

BACKGROUND Cordyceps militaris (C. militaris) is reported to exert various immune-activities. To enhance its activity, we fermented C.militaris with Pediococcus pentosaceus ON89A (GRC-ON89A). In this study, we investigated the immune-enhancing activity GRC-ON89A, using immunosuppressed model. METHODS Immunosuppression was induced by intraperitoneal injection of cyclophosphamide (CY). Each gro...

The growth and reproduction complex (grc-) strains of rats have a 70-kilobase deletion in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-linked grc-G/C region that is associated with embryonic death, developmental defects, and an increased susceptibility to chemical carcinogens. To study further the effects associated with the deletion, fibroblastic cell lines from grc-, grc+, and grc+/- rat embryo...

Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) as an integrated concept has gained great interest recently among researchers in the Information Systems (IS) field. The need for more effective and efficient business processes in the area of financial controls drives enterprises to successfully implement GRC systems as an overall goal when they are striving for enterprise value of their integrated systems...

Governance, risk and compliance (GRC) as a marketplace can be broadly divided between GRC management (GRCM) products for the oversight and operation of risk management and compliance programs, and other GRC products for the automation and monitoring of controls. For a comprehensive description of the GRC marketplace, see "A Comparison Model for the GRC Marketplace, 2011 to 2013," which addresse...

The concepts of approximations in granular computing (GrC) vs. rough set theory (RS) are examined. Examples are constructed to contrast their differences in the Global GrC Model (2nd GrC Model), which, in pre-GrC term, is called partial coverings. Mathematically speaking, RS-approximations are “sub-base” based, while GrC-approximations are “base” based, where “sub-base” and “base” are two conce...

Although the gastric remnant has been reported to be at high risk for carcinogenesis, the process of carcinogenesis of gastric remnant cancer (GRC) remains unclear. In this study, genetic alterations in GRC were examined in order to investigate the carcinogenic pathways of GRC. Twenty-one patients with GRC were investigated and were compared to 36 patients with sporadic gastric cancer (GC) as a...

In vivo assembly of plasmids has become an increasingly used process, as high throughput studies in molecular biology seek to examine gene function. In this study, we investigated the plasmid construction technique called gap repair cloning (GRC) in two closely related species of yeast - Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candida glabrata. GRC utilizes homologous recombination (HR) activity to join a...

Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) is an emerging topic in the world of business and information technology. However to date there is a lack of research on an integrated approach to GRC has hardly been researched. In this paper we construct an integrated process model for high-level IT GRC management. First, we discuss existing process models for integrated GRC. Then we set the scope of our...
