Extraposition Grammar (XG) was introduced in Per81] as a grammar formalism whose increase in recognizing power over context free grammars is limited to mechanisms for adequate description of structural phenomena occurring in natural language. This paper proposes versions of XG whose xed recognition problems are in deterministic polynomial and exponential time; furthermore it is shown that the u...

Polysaccharide-polysaccharide interactions are attractive in the food, polymer and pharmaceutical systems because they may impart novel or improved functional properties to products and reduce costs. In this work, the rheological interaction of sage seed gum (SSG) as a novel hydrocolloid with xanthan gum (XG) was studied in the dilute region. The intrinsic viscosity of the XG-SSG mixture at fiv...

This research aimed to develop new hydrophobic and potentially amphiphilic benzyl xanthan gum (BXG) derivatives using a Williamson synthesis. modification consists of an etherification reaction between (XG) chloride (BC) under microwave heating. The effects the molar ratio (R = XG/CLB, with R equal 2 or 4) on character degree substitution (DS) were studied. two (BXG1 BXG2) subsequently subjecte...

Let G be a semisimple affine algebraic group of inner type over a field F . We write XG for the class of all finite direct products of projective G-homogeneous F varieties. We determine the structure of the Chow motives with coefficients in a finite field of the varieties in XG. More precisely, it is known that the motive of any variety in XG decomposes (in a unique way) into a sum of indecompo...

The c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK)-inhibiting peptide D-JNKI-1, syn. XG-102 was tested for its therapeutic potential in acute inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in mice. Rectal instillation of the chemical irritant trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS) provoked a dramatic acute inflammation in the colon of 7-9 weeks old mice. Coincident subcutaneous application of 100 µg/kg XG-102 significantly red...

The aim of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of the JNK inhibitor XG-102 in a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, sequential ascending dose parallel group Phase 1 Study. Three groups of male subjects received as randomly assigned ascending single XG-102 doses (10, 40, and 80 μg/kg; 6 subjects per dose) or placebo (2 subjects per dose) as an in...

BACKGROUND Xinfuli Granule (XG), a compound Chinese herbal medicine, has been effectively used in China for the treatment of heart failure for more than fifty years. This study aimed to investigate the effects and the underlying mechanisms of Xinfuli in rats with doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity. METHODS Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with intraperitoneal injection of Doxorubicin (DOX, 2....

This study evaluates the effects of cultured wild ginseng root (0.05%, 0.1% v/w) and xylitol in kimchi. The fermented characteristics of kimchi were investigated during 28 days of fermentation at 4°C. The pH value in the sample with the cultured wild ginseng root was higher than that of control group. The total acidity in the sugar groups (SG groups) was higher than that of xylitol groups (XG g...

A family is described in which a probable new form of sex-linked optic atrophy was found in eight individuals. Some additional neurological abnormalities were noted. Results of studies of the Xg blood group excluded close linkage between the optic atrophy and Xg genes. As a probable coincidence, Huntington's chorea was found in a side branch of the family.
