The purpose of this study was to implement a diffusion-weighted sequence for visualisation of mobile lipid resonances (MLR) using high resolution magic angle spinning (HR-MAS) (1)H MRS and to evaluate its use in establishing differences between tissues from patients with cervical carcinoma that contain cancer from those that do not. A stimulated echo sequence with bipolar gradients was modified...

Context: A Multivocal Literature Review (MLR) is a form of a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) which includes the grey literature (e.g., blog posts and white papers) in addition to the published (formal) literature (e.g., journal and conference papers). MLRs are useful for both researchers and practitioners since they provide summaries both the state-of-the art and –practice in a given area. M...

Many multilevel relational data models have been proposed, and diierent models ooer diierent advantages. In this paper, we adapt and reene several of the best ideas from previous models and add new ideas to build the new Multilevel Relational (MLR) data model. MLR provides multilevel relations with element-level labeling, as a natural extension of the traditional relational data model. MLR intr...

CD83 is a marker of dendritic cell (DC) differentiation/activation and its expression in the mouse thymus contributes to CD4(+) T lymphocyte development. Its extrathymic role remains unclear despite the functional effects observed with CD83 fusion proteins or CD83 antibody and recent reports of potential ligands. We investigated the previously observed and presumed functional blockade of the al...

We investigate the analytical representation of potentials of mean force (pmf) using the Morse/long-range (MLR) potential approach. The MLR method had previously been used to represent potential energy surfaces, and we assess its validity for representing free-energies. The advantage of the approach is that the potential of mean force data only needs to be calculated in the short to medium rang...

Locomotor modulation of disynaptic EPSPs from the mesencephalic locomotor region in cat motoneurons. J. Neurophysiol. 80: 3284-3296, 1998. When low-frequency tetanization of the mesencephalic locomotor region (MLR) produce fictive locomotion in unanesthetized, decerebrate cats, each MLR stimulus produces a distinctive cord dorsum potential (CDP) and oligosynaptic excitatory postsynaptic potenti...

The antiviral drugs that inhibit human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) entry to the target cells are already in different phases of clinical trials. They prevent viral entry and have a highly specific mechanism of action with a low toxicity profile. Few QSAR studies have been performed on this group of inhibitors. This study was performed to develop a quantitative structure-activity relationship (...

The auditory middle latency response (MLR), a useful tool in the assessment of low-frequency auditory sensitivity, can be consistently recorded in young children during wakefulness, stages 1 and 2, and REM sleep. Responses are often absent or questionable during stage 4. An on-line measure indicating favorable periods for recording MLR during sleep is important for interpretation of absent pote...

Although the production of B cell stimulatory factors by cell lines and hybridomas is well established, production of specific lymphokines by normal T cells in response to antigen stimulation has not been analyzed. We have used bioassays and neutralizing mAbs to demonstrate that IL-2, IL-4, and B cell growth factors (BCGF) are produced during primary and secondary MLRs. IL-2 is detected in the ...
