Presentation of insulin and insulin A chain peptides to mouse T cells: involvement of cysteine residues.

1991

The requirements for insulin presentation and recognition by A alpha b A beta b- and A alpha b A beta k-restricted mouse T cells were studied using a variety of derivatives of the insulin A chain. It was found that A chain peptides with irreversibly blocked Cys residues are non-stimulatory for the T cells. This suggests that at least one of the Cys residues is essential for recognition. On the other hand, all A chain peptides containing Cys residues modified in a way reversible by reaction with thiols are stimulatory yet differ in antigenic potency. All these A chain derivatives including a 14 amino acid fragment require uptake by antigen presenting cells (APC) for efficient presentation. D…

Sylviasta, Sylvialle, Sylviana : retoriikka ja merkityksenmuodostus osoitteessa www.sylviaplathforum.com

2016

This study explores the writings of Sylvia Plath Forum, a discussion forum in the Internet that was launched in 1998. Using Norman Fairclough’s critical discourse analysis, Chaïm Perelman’s theory of argumentation, Kenneth Burke’s idea of identification as the basis of rhetoric, and René Girards’s theory of mimetic desire as its framework this study looks into the forum’s meaning-making processes and the ways the author Sylvia Plath (1932-1963) and her readers are represented on the forum. Attention is paid especially to meaning-making practices that are connected with literary studies, feminism, medicalization, and cultic phenomena. Furthermore, cultic discourse and fan discourse are under…

IL SINDACO DEL RIONE SANITÀ – MIT WŁOSKIEGO GUAPPO OCZAMI LUIGIEGO PIRANDELLA

2015

The article proposes an analysis of one of the main plays written by Eduardo De Filippo, Il sindaco del rione Sanita, considered here in a wide context: the literary and artistic representation of Neapolitan criminality. Understood by a part of the critics and later by sociological studies focused on the camorra as the “personification of the myth” of the guappo, often in opposition to the parodistic and disenchanted version of the character offered by Raffaele Viviani, Eduardo’s Sindaco actually maintains with this topos an extensively ambiguous connection. In this essay, using the proper methods of textual analysis in a dialogue with some contributions taken from historiography and sociol…

A Rule-Based System for Hardware Configuration and Programming of IoT Devices

2019

Simplifying programming, deployment, and configuration of heterogeneous networked IoT devices requires networking, hardware, representation of knowledge and concepts, design and programming skills. In fact, IoT applications are mostly built by adopting different existing paradigms and technologies on a case-by-case basis. As a result, programming tools hinder adaptability and interoperability of applications with their rigidity. In this paper, we propose a rule-based system that configures and programs IoT devices automatically. The rule base holds formal specifications about hardware platforms, networking protocols, physical world concepts, and applications. Provided with a high-level appl…

An Operator Theoretical Approach to Enveloping ϕ* - and C* - Algebras of Melrose Algebras of Totally Characteristic Pseudodifferential Operators

1998

Let X be a compact manifold with boundary. It will be shown (Theorem 3.4) that the small Melrose algebra A≔ ϕb,cl (χ,bΩ1/2) (cf. [22], [23]) of classical, totally characteristic pseudodifferential operators carries no topology such that it is a topological algebra with an open group of invertible elements, in particular, the algebra A cannot be spectrally invariant in any C* – algebra. On the other hand, the symbolic structure of A can be extended continuously to the C* – algebra B generated by A as a subalgebra of ζ(σbL2(χ, bΩ1/2)) by a generalization of a method of Gohberg and Krupnik. Furthermore, A is densely embedded in a Frechet algebra A ⊆ B which is a ϕ* – algebra in the sense of Gr…

Extensible Visualizations of Ontologies in OWLGrEd

2019

OWLGrEd is a visual editor for OWL 2.0 ontologies that combines UML class diagram notation and textual OWL Manchester syntax for expressions. We review the basic OWLGrEd options for ontology presentation customization and consider the framework of OWLGrEd extensions that enables introducing rich use-case specific functionality to the editor. A number of available OWLGrEd extensions offering rich ontology management features to their end-users are described, as well.

Comments on “Overviews of Models Defined with Charts of Concepts” by X. Castellani

2000

This paper has introduced a simplified model for the representation of system development methods. The model forms charts of concepts. Different from other metamodels that are made to explain methods in details, the charts of concepts are to help understanding of the concepts of methods using graphic presentation.

SYSCILIA, “A systems biology approach to dissect cilia function and its disruption in human genetic disease”

2012

Primary cilia are basically signaling hubs, harboring amongst others the noncanonical WNT, Hedgehog,and PDGF signaling systems, and their disruption leads to striking developmental defects. Some ciliopathy-associated proteins have recently been revealed to be physically or functionally associated in several distinct groupings, with limited connections to other crucial biological processes. Early proteomics studies have also suggested a discrete repertoire of about 1000 proteins within the organelle (i.e. <5% of the proteome) that are still in need of organisation into pathways and networks. Small, relatively isolated systems are often targeted by systems biology approaches under the assumpt…

Mapping and expression pattern analysis of key components of the major histocompatibility complex class I antigen processing and presentation pathway…

2001

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) represent approximately 5% of all cancer deaths. At the time of presentation, over 50% of the patients have already developed locally advanced or metastatic disease with five-year survival rates of less than 20%. Although relative resistant to conventional regimens, RCC are partially susceptible to T cell-based immunotherapy. To further develop this treatment modality, two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2-D PAGE) was applied for both the mapping of the key components of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I antigen processing and presentation machinery (APM) and the characterization of the constitutive and cytokine-regulated protein e…
