In an open shortest path first (OSPF) based best effort network, when a packet experiences congestion, the routing subsystem cannot send it through an alternate path. Thus, it fails to provide desired quality of service (QoS) during congestion. In order to provide QoS we have reported three different load sensitive routing (LSR) protocols in [A. Sahoo, An OSPF based load-sensitive QoS routing a...

A system based on the charge-discharge characteristics of the neural synapses of the visual path, is shortly introduced. The proposed system uses the LSR (length/speed ratio) descriptor. After image segmentation, the LSR characteristic is used to detect and classify motion in the scene. This paper mainly focuses on its simulator named TIRANO and in particular on its learning sessions and result...

PURPOSE Image non-uniformity may cause substantial problems in magnetic resonance (MR) imaging especially when a 3-T scanner is used. We evaluated the effect of image non-uniformity correction in gadolinium ethoxybenzyl-diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (Gd-EOB-DTPA)-enhanced MR imaging using a 3-T scanner. METHODS Two commercially available methods for image non-uniformity correction, surf...

Lipolysis-stimulated lipoprotein receptor (LSR) has been identified as a novel molecular constituent of tricellular contacts that have a barrier function for the cellular sheet. LSR recruits tricellulin (TRIC), which is the first molecular component of tricellular tight junctions. Knockdown of LSR increases cell motility and invasion of certain cancer cells. However, the behavior and the roles ...

Several ruminal cellulolytic bacteria species are sensitive to pH and could therefore be used as biomarkers to determine the risk of sub-acute ruminal acidosis (SARA) in finishing lambs. This study compared a 2-4 h post feeding ruminal pH measurement to abundances of the ruminal pH-sensitive bacteria to evaluate the risk of SARA in a herd of 120 finishing lambs. The lambs were reared in individ...

The lipolysis-stimulated lipoprotein receptor (LSR) is a lipoprotein receptor, serves as host receptor for clostridial iota-like toxins and is involved in the formation of tricellular contacts. Of particular interest is the role of LSR in progression of various cancers. Here we aimed to study the tumor growth of LSR-deficient colon carcinoma-derived cell lines HCT116 and CaCo-2 in a mouse xenog...

A negative finding of amniotic fluid (AF) phosphatidyl glycerol (PG) does not eliminate the need for determining the lecithin/sphingomyelin ratio (LSR). We use a novel approach to classify fetal lung maturity (FLM) data, and to validate the fluorescence polarization (FP) surfactant assay (Abbott), which replaces the PG assay and reduces the frequency of repeat LSR. This method finds the values ...

Lipolysis-stimulated lipoprotein receptor (LSR) is a unique molecule of tricellular contacts of normal and cancer cells. We investigated how the loss of LSR induced cell migration, invasion and proliferation in endometrial cancer cell line Sawano. mRNAs of amphiregulin (AREG) and TEA domain family member 1 (TEAD1) were markedly upregulated by siRNA-LSR. In endometrial cancer tissues, downregula...

The interlocking and packing of aggregate particles play a key role in achieving high level linear viscoelastic properties rutting resistance asphalt mix for sustainable pavements. In this study, the quantitative effect fractured (FAPs) on loading (i.e., 500 kPa normal stress), along with resilience mixes, was evaluated. Linear nonlinear stress behaviors aggregates (from direct shear test) mixe...
