introduction: vitamin d deficiency and rickets continue to be health problems in developing countries and most of the infants with congenital rickets may present with hypocalcemic seizure.   case report: in this article, the report on four infants who presented with hypocalcemic seizures but subsequently were found to have congenital rickets is presented. all of them had hypocalcaemia and low l...

We present results of near-threshold photoionization of N3 photofragments produced by laser photodissociation of ClN3 at 248 nm. The time of flight of recoiling N3 is used to resolve two photochemical channels producing N3, which exhibit different translational energy release. The two forms of N3 resolved in this way exhibit different photoionization thresholds, consistent with their assignment...

Notch1 (N1) signaling induced by intrathymic Delta-like (DL) ligands is required for T cell lineage commitment as well as self-renewal during "β-selection" of TCRβ⁺CD4⁻CD8⁻ double negative 3 (DN3) T cell progenitors. However, over-expression of the N1 intracellular domain (ICN1) renders N1 activation ligand-independent and drives leukemic transformation during β-selection. DN3 progenitors also ...
