Vitamin E succinate (VES) and all-trans-retinoic acid (RA) were determined to be growth inhibitory for B lymphoma cells in vitro. RL, an Epstein-Barr virus-negative human cell line, was growth suppressed 87% with VES (5 micrograms/ml) and 58% with RA (10(-6) M); both agents blocked the cells in G1 of the cell cycle. The antiproliferative effect of VES seems to be independent of its potential an...

5 The authors analyze the column-integrated moist static energy budget over the region of 6 the tropical Indian ocean covered by the sounding array during the CINDY/DYNAMO field 7 experiment in late 2011. The analysis is performed using data from the the sounding array 8 complemented by the Objectively Analyzed air-sea Fluxes for the Global Oceans (OAflux) 9 and Clouds and the Earth’s Radiant E...

The thermal inertia of a building envelope endows with heat storage capability, introducing scheduling flexibility to energy microgrid (BEM). is usually modelled as virtual (VES) and used optimize the operation BEMs reduce electricity costs. However, VES capacity impacted by varies variations in indoor/outdoor temperature. If only envelope's effect on transfer considered, without proper quantif...

Vitamin E succinate (VES), a potential cancer therapeutic agent, potently induces apoptosis and inhibits the growth of various cancer cells. Autophagy has been supposed to promote cancer cell survival or trigger cell death, depending on particular cancer types and tumor microenvironments. The role of autophagy in the growth suppressive effect of VES on gastric cancer cell is basically unknown. ...

Tumor-targeted delivery system has been developed as an attractive strategy for effective tumor therapy. In this study, in order to enhance the antitumor effects of doxorubicin (DOX), amphiphilic hyaluronic acid (HA)-conjugated vitamin E succinate (VES) copolymers (HA-VES) with different degrees of substitution (DS) were prepared with synergistic antitumor effects and active targeting activitie...

A virtual environment (VE) has been designed for functioning as a threedimensional interface to a repository of images and sounds. This paper attempts to study design interface in VEs. This study first examines the characteristics of VEs. The difference between physical and virtual environments is also studied. The relationship between both is classified as three types, i.e. complement, replace...

Introduction. Electromagnetic (EM) sounding of the Moon and the Galilean satellites has yielded important insights on the interior structures of these bodies [e.g., 1-7]. These investigations measured magnetic fields only and required auxiliary information on the nature of the source fields. The magnetotelluric (MT) method, by measuring both magnetic and electric fields, can perform soundings f...
