During early wound healing (WH) events Connexin 43 (Cx43) is down-regulated at wound margins. In chronic wound margins, including diabetic wounds, Cx43 expression is enhanced suggesting that down-regulation is important for WH. We previously reported that the Cx43 mimetic peptide Gap27 blocks Cx43 mediated intercellular communication and promotes skin cell migration of infant cells in vitro. In...

The two autonomously manifesting mutations, eyeless (el) and white eyes (wh), of Habrobracon juglandis were compared phenotypically with the wild-type. Eyeless reduces the compound eyes in size. The penetrance is 100%, while expressivity ranges from point-shaped ommochrome crumbs over individual facets to a small eye with abundant facets. There is no correlation between the sizes of left and ri...

There exist several important empirical and theoretical issues in dealing with English wh-questions. Among these are syntactic connectivity between the wh-filler and its putative gap, so-called that-trace effect, and constraints in the formation of infinitival wh-questions. Many attempts have been made to account for these, but few succeeded in obtaining satisfactory support. This paper offers ...

The goal of this paper is to examine Wh-islands effects in Bulgarian and Serbo-Croatian (SC) and constructions in which SC must have Wh-movement. The starting point will be Rudin’s (1988) seminal paper on the structure of multiple Wh-fronting (MWF) constructions in Bulgarian and SC. In section 1 of the paper I briefly summarize Rudin’s (1988) analysis as well as a modification of Rudin’s analys...

This involves two applications of wh-clustering and one application of wh-movement: first to whom attaches to the right of what. Then the cluster [ what [ to whom ] ] attaches to the right of who. Finally, standard wh-movement places the cluster [ who [ what [ to whom ] ] ] in Spec,CP. Japanese and German are taken to differ only minimally from Bulgarian as the respective analyses in (3) and (4...

This paper attempts to investigate word order and verbal movement in Moroccan Arabic the Minimalist framework. We observe that unmarked MA is SVO while derived structure VSO. follows an English-like derivation where subject moves from [Spec, vP] TP] whilst verb v T. raises issue of when it comes VSO languages have as underlying order. To derive VSO, we propose T Focus based on pragmatic reasons...

The mainstream literature on the Romance dialects of northern Italy has explained morphosyntax clause-internal wh-elements in answer-seeking interrogatives as either result interrogative movement into lower portion high left periphery (Munaro et al. 2001, Poletto & Pollock 2015, a.o.), or a canonical instance scope construal (Manzini Savoia 2005;2011). New empirical evidence from suggests t...

Artificial Intelligence chatbots have shown a growing interest in different domains including e-learning. They support learners by answering their repetitive and massive questions. In this paper, we develop smart learning architecture for an inclusive chatbot handling both text voice messages. Thus, disabled can easily use it. We automatically extract, preprocess, vectorize, construct AskBot's ...
