Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesMicroarray Analysis of Human Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Responses to Bacterial LipopolysaccharideJoe Minta James, J. Yun, Sandy Der, Shikha RanaAccumulating evidence suggest a causal role of bacterial and viral infections in atherogenesis. Bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) has been shown to stimulate resting vascular smooth muscle cells (SMC) with the production of inflammatory cytokines and modulation of quiescent cells to the proliferative and synthetic phenotype. To comprehensively identify biologically important genes associated with LPS-induced SMC phenotype modulation, we compared the transcriptomes … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,994 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating the Effect of Soil Particle Characterization on Internal Friction AngleArezou Rasti, Hamid Ranjkesh Adarmanabadi, Maria Pineda, Jesse ReinikainenOne of the critical design parameters used in evaluating soil structure is the friction angle, derived from Mohr's Circle failure criterion. The soil friction angle is an engineering parameter estimated in the laboratory to quantify the soil shear strength in geotechnical applications. This paper indicates an experimental study investigating the impact of particle size on different sandy soils shear strength … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 21 Feb 2021 · 8,890 accessesView PDF Cite
