Abstract We present a calculation of the grand canonical partition function serial metallic island system by imaginary-time path integral formalism. To this purpose, all electronic excitations in lead and electrodes are described using Grassmann numbers. The Coulomb charging energy is represented terms phase fields conjugate to charges. By large channel approximation, tunneling action dependenc...

Wnt signaling controls a wide range of developmental processes and its aberrant regulation can lead to disease. To better understand the regulation of this pathway, we identified zebrafish homologues of Naked Cuticle (Nkd), Nkd1 and Nkd2, which have previously been shown to inhibit canonical Wnt/beta-catenin signaling. Zebrafish nkd1 expression increases substantially after the mid-blastula tra...

Several completely integrable, indeed solvable, Hamiltonian many-body problems are exhibited, characterized by Newtonian equations of motion (" acceleration equal force "), with linear and cubic forces, in N-dimensional space (N being an arbitrary positive integer, with special attention to N = 2, namely motions in a plane, and N = 3, namely motions in ordinary three-dimensional space). All the...

Germline stem cell (GSC) self-renewal and differentiation into gametes is regulated by both intrinsic factors in the germ line as well as extrinsic factors from the surrounding somatic niche. dWnt4, in the escort cells of the adult somatic niche promotes GSC differentiation using the canonical β-catenin-dependent transcriptional pathway to regulate escort cell survival, adhesion to the germ lin...

Leisure activities are one of the determinants quality life, among others. In this context, study focuses on all dimensions satisfaction from leisure and life. Canonical correlation analysis was used, 300 university students were included in via convenience sampling method. Data collection tools research “Satisfaction with Life Scale” “Short-Form-36 Health Survey”. According to findings, shared...

Cardiogenesis is inhibited by canonical Wnt/beta-catenin signalling and stimulated by non-canonical Wnt11/JNK signalling, but how these two signalling pathways crosstalk is currently unknown. Here, we show that Wnt/beta-catenin signalling restricts cardiogenesis via inhibition of GATA gene expression, as experimentally reinstating GATA function overrides beta-catenin-mediated inhibition and res...

We show that that a certain class of semi-proper iterations does not add ω-sequences. As a result, starting from suitable large cardinals one can obtain a model in which the Continuum Hypothesis holds and every function from ω1 to ω1 is bounded by a canonical function on a club, and so ω1 is the ω2-nd canonical function.
