Bonus: This is the unique function on matrices that satisfies multilinearity, alternation, and such that det(I) = 1. Here multilinearity means that the function is linear in each column separately, i.e., it is multiadditive and multihomogeneous: multiadditive means that, if A and B are two matrices which have the same columns except for the k-th column, and C is the matrix which has the same co...

Therapeutic hypothermia (TH) cardioprotection has recently been associated with increased Akt signaling in a rat model of cardiac arrest. However, it is not known whether Akt is required for this beneficial effect of TH. We used a mouse model of cardiac arrest demonstrating TH cardioprotection to study the response of mice deficient in an Akt1 allele. We hypothesized that Akt1 mediates TH cardi...
