Clustering with Terracotta
Masteroppgave i informasjons- og kommunikasjonsteknologi 2008 – Universitetet i Agder, Grimstad In today’s java community, modern enterprise application products have more constraints and requirements then ever. High availability, application scalability and also good performance are required, which means an application is needed to be deployed on multiple JVMs, in other words, it has to be clustered or distributed. It is essential for the application to scale out well, has better performance and less complexity during development of clustering. This master thesis focuses on clustering with Terracotta which is a JVM level clustering technique. First I start analyzing the complexity when an …
Differential Expression Profiles and Functional Prediction of Circular RNAs in Pediatric Dilated Cardiomyopathy
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have emerged as essential regulators and biomarkers in various diseases. To assess the different expression levels of circRNAs in pediatric dilated cardiomyopathy (PDCM) and explore their biological and mechanistic significance, we used RNA microarrays to identify differentially expressed circRNAs between three children diagnosed with PDCM and three healthy age-matched volunteers. The biological function of circRNAs was assessed with a circRNA–microRNA (miRNA)–mRNA interaction network constructed from Gene Ontology and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes. Differentially expressed circRNAs were validated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qR…
CRT-605 Multimodality Imaging Demonstrating Liposomes Preferentially Home to Regions of Myocardial Injury
Nanoparticles may serve as a promising means to deliver novel therapeutics to the myocardium following myocardial infarction. We assessed whether lipid-based liposomal nanoparticles specifically target injured myocardium following intravenous injection. CD1 male mice that underwent LAD ligation
Meta-Analysis of Genome-Wide Association Studies in >80 000 Subjects Identifies Multiple Loci for C-Reactive Protein Levels
Background— C-reactive protein (CRP) is a heritable marker of chronic inflammation that is strongly associated with cardiovascular disease. We sought to identify genetic variants that are associated with CRP levels. Methods and Results— We performed a genome-wide association analysis of CRP in 66 185 participants from 15 population-based studies. We sought replication for the genome-wide significant and suggestive loci in a replication panel comprising 16 540 individuals from 10 independent studies. We found 18 genome-wide significant loci, and we provided evidence of replication for 8 of them. Our results confirm 7 previously known loci and introduce 11 novel loci that are implicated in p…
