Surface myoelectric signals (MES) can be used as effective input for the control of upper arm prostheses. The concept of myoelectric control was introduced in the 1940’s [1]. Initially, amplitude measures were used to parameterize the MES, but simple approach imposed a practical limit of a three state system for each MES control site (e.g. rest, hand open, and hand close) [2]; therefore, to imp...

This paper presents a concept of development of Manufacturing Execution System (MES) by using simulations. MES is one of manufacturing systems that are used to bridge the data between the gap of the bottom layer (such as the shop floor control) and the enterprise system layer (such as Enterprise Resource Planning: ERP). The paper focuses on the functions of MES which link the levels of operatio...

Activation of nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) induces mesenchymal (MES) transdifferentiation and radioresistance in glioma stem cells (GSCs), but molecular mechanisms for NF-κB activation in GSCs are currently unknown. Here, we report that mixed lineage kinase 4 (MLK4) is overexpressed in MES but not proneural (PN) GSCs. Silencing MLK4 suppresses self-renewal, motility, tumorigenesis, and radioresist...

Anticonvulsant activity of N-(p-aminobenzoyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-4-methylquinoline (NMQ), a newly synthesized ameltolide analogue, was investigated with regards to efficacy, lethality and neurotoxicity in mice. In vivo microdialysis experiments on freely moving rats were also performed in search for the possible effect of NMQ on cortical amino acid neurotransmitters. Similar to ameltolide, intr...

The paper is focused mainly on ERP and MES integration and is structured in the following way. Firstly the background on ERP and MES Evolution is presented. Then, MES functionalities are analyzed and a modified functionality model is suggested. After that a pertinent issues of ERP and MES are treated. In the final section will be discussed decisive findings and future trends of MESs, which are ...

A new tripodal ligand that features three selenium donors, namely the tris(2-seleno-1-mesitylimidazolyl)hydroborato ligand, [Tse(Mes)], has been constructed via the reaction of KBH(4) with 1-mesitylimidazole-2-selone; comparison of the IR spectroscopic data of [Tse(Mes)]Re(CO)(3) with those of a variety of related LRe(CO)(3) complexes demonstrates that the [Tse(Mes)] ligand is more strongly ele...

The germline of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans exhibits a remarkable ability to specifically silence transgenic DNA. We have shown that this silencing mechanism is disrupted in animals mutant for the maternal effect sterile genes mes-2, mes-3, mes-4 and mes-6. The proteins encoded by mes-2 and mes-6 have been shown to be related to the Polycomb Group of transcriptional repressors (Holdeman...

Integrated manufacturing systems have always found in the hardware and software heterogeneity among different vendors an obstacle to their satisfactory implementation. Nowadays, new Open and Distributed Systems technologies have appeared, providing a new integration potential, accelerating the implementation of MES (Manufacturing Execution Systems) and making it’s integration to other corporate...

BACKGROUND Metabolic syndrome (MeS) is being recognized as a risk factor for insulin resistance and cardiovascular disease. The present study was aimed to find out the possible association between 45-bp I/D polymorphism of uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) and MeS. METHODS DNA was extracted from peripheral blood of 151 subjects with and 149 subjects without MeS. 45-bp I/D variant of UCP2 was detect...
