Cortical astrocytosis in juvenile rhesus monkeys infected with simian immunodeficiency virus

1993

The pattern of expression of GFAP immunoreactivity in astrocytes of the juvenile rhesus monkey cortex was examined following infection with simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV). Blocks of cerebral cortex plus subjacent white matter from saline- and formalin-perfused brain were examined by peroxidase-linked immunochemical and immunofluorescence staining of deparaffinized sections. Strong GFAP immunoreactivity was found in astrocytic cells in both uninfected and SIV-infected juvenile macaque in the subpial cerebral cortex and in subcortical white matter, where GFAP-positive cells were abundant. GFAP staining of cortical layers 2-6 on the other hand was weak or absent in three uninfected contro…

Flows and mixing in channels with misaligned superhydrophobic walls.

2014

Aligned superhydrophobic surfaces with the same texture orientation reduce drag in the channel and generate secondary flows transverse to the direction of the applied pressure gradient. Here we show that a transverse shear can be easily generated by using superhydrophobic channels with misaligned textured surfaces. We propose a general theoretical approach to quantify this transverse flow by introducing the concept of an effective shear tensor. To illustrate its use, we present approximate theoretical solutions and Dissipative Particle Dynamics simulations for striped superhydrophobic channels. Our results demonstrate that the transverse shear leads to complex flow patterns, which provide a…

Stability of melt flow due to a traveling magnetic field in a closed ampoule

2004

The linear three-dimensional instability of the flow due to a low frequency traveling magnetic field in a regular cylinder is studied numerically for height-to-diameter ratios in the range [0.5:2.5]. The first instability has the form of an azimuthal wave with wave numbers between 1 and 6 depending on the aspect ratio. It is shown that the flow is stable if the Reynolds number is below 290. Even stronger stationary flows may be obtained in a flattened cylinder.

Lignans from Torreya jackii identified by stopped-flow high-performance liquid chromatography–nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy

1999

Abstract Coupled reversed-phase HPLC–NMR spectroscopy has been applied to the rapid detection and identification of plant metabolites of Torreya jackii , a species of Taxaceae. Analysis consisted of gradient HPLC elution and directly coupled 1 H NMR (500 MHz) spectroscopic detection in a stopped-flow mode. Seven lignans were detected and their structures were elucidated, based on their HPLC– 1 H NMR spectra and MS data. The structures were confirmed by isolation of the single components followed by conventional NMR measurements.

Lynch Syndrome Genetics and Clinical Implications

2023

Lynch syndrome (LS) is one of the most prevalent hereditary cancer syndromes in humans and accounts for some 3% of unselected patients with colorectal or endometrial cancer and 10%-15% of those with DNA mismatch repair-deficient tumors. Previous studies have established the genetic basis of LS predisposition, but there have been significant advances recently in the understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of LS tumors, which has important implications in clinical management. At the same time, immunotherapy has revolu-tionized the treatment of advanced cancers with DNA mismatch repair defects. We aim to review the recent prog-ress in the LS field and discuss how the accumulating epidemiol…

The Zahorski theorem is valid in Gevrey classes

1996

Let {Ω,F,G} be a partition of R such that Ω is open, F is Fσ and of the first category, and G is Gδ . We prove that, for every γ ∈ ]1,∞[, there is an element of the Gevrey class Γγ which is analytic on Ω, has F as its set of defect points and has G as its set of divergence points.

Pulsed-Resource Dynamics Constrain the Evolution of Predator-Prey Interactions

2011

Although temporal variability in the physical environment plays a major role in population fluctuations, little is known about how it drives the ecological and evolutionary dynamics of species interactions. We studied experimentally how extrinsic resource pulses affect evolutionary and ecological dynamics between the prey bacterium Serratia marcescens and the predatory protozoan Tetrahymena thermophila. Predation increased the frequency of defensive, nonpigmented prey types, which bore competitive costs in terms of reduced maximum growth rate, most in a constant-resource environment. Furthermore, the predator densities of the pulsed-resource environment regularly fluctuated above and below …

Viscous-Inviscid Interactions in a Boundary-Layer Flow Induced by a Vortex Array

2014

In this paper we investigate the asymptotic validity of boundary layer theory. For a flow induced by a periodic row of point-vortices, we compare Prandtl's solution to Navier-Stokes solutions at different $Re$ numbers. We show how Prandtl's solution develops a finite time separation singularity. On the other hand Navier-Stokes solution is characterized by the presence of two kinds of viscous-inviscid interactions between the boundary layer and the outer flow. These interactions can be detected by the analysis of the enstrophy and of the pressure gradient on the wall. Moreover we apply the complex singularity tracking method to Prandtl and Navier-Stokes solutions and analyze the previous int…
