Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAutomatic Calibration of Frequency Compensation System in Computer-Controlled Patch-Clamp AmplifierJun Xiong, Gang Hu, Anlian QuComputer-controlled patch-clamp amplifier is a digitally controlled analog device used to record the cellular ion channel currents in electrophysiology research. The inherent bandwidth and performance of the headstage is limited by the stray capacitance and distributed capacitance across the feedback resistors. In order to effectively improve the performance of the headstage, the paper advanced a simplified automatic calibration method of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2007 · 6,814 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParallel Algorithms for String Matching Problem on Single and Two Dimensional Reconfigurable Pipelined Bus SystemsS. Viswanadha Raju, A. Vinaya BabuWe considered string matching on LARPBS and 2D LARPBS. This has applications such as string databases, cellular automata and computational biology. The main use of this method is to reduce the time spent on comparisons in string matching by using LARPBS. We investigated exact string matching and approximate string matching problems. For these two sub problems, we obtained O (n) … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,530 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCholesterol Metabolism in Brain and Skin Fibroblasts from Sarda Breed Sheep With Scrapie-resistant and Scrapie-susceptible GenotypesAlessandra Pani, Claudia Abete, Claudia Norfo et al.Scrapie is a fatal spongiform encephalopathy of sheep, a transmissible form of prion disease caused by neuronal accumulation of the aberrantly conformed prion protein (PrPsc). Currently, no ante-mortem diagnostic tests are available to detect this untreatable disease in the pre-clinical stage, thus making difficult to control its spread. Recent evidence suggests that the production of PrPsc can be modulated by … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,257 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEmetine produce Entamoeba histolytica Death by Inducing a Programmed Cell DeathJ.D. Villalba-Magdaleno, R. Rojas, C. Gómez et al.Amoebiasis is a major public health problem in tropical and subtropical countries. Although a number of antiamoebic agents are used for its treatment and the molecular targets of these drugs have been identified, the biochemical and physiological mechanisms that produce trophozoite death are little known. The present study dates the in vitro induction of programmed cell death (PCD) in E. … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,211 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHIV-1-Specific CTL Recognizing a Scarce Epitope Are Not Suppressed by HIV-1 Protease InhibitorsOtto O. YangHIV-1-protease inhibitors have received growing attention as agents that can affect proteases in human proteasomes, with potentially deleterious effects for HIV-1-specific cellular immunity. Studying the antiviral activity of HIV-1-specific CTL that recognize an epitope that is presented at limiting concentrations on infected cells, we find that several HIV-1 protease inhibitors do not affect their function. These data indicate that these … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,016 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiomedicine and Informatics Model of Alzheimer's DiseaseKang Cheng, Chang-Hua ZouIn a perspective of biomedicine and informatics, the mechanism of Alzheimer's, senile amnesia, or other aging-associated and cognitive impairment related diseases involve four important informative processing procedures: propagation, consolidation, retrieval and cognition, In this study, we systematically model the four procedures based on published experimental data. When modeling the propagation, we develop an equivalent circuit of biological membrane to describe … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 28 May 2007 · 6,824 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAttenuated Superoxide Dismutase Induction in Retinal Cells in Response to Intermittent High Versus Continuous High GlucoseMichael A. Ihnat, Ronald C. Kaltreider, Jessica E. Thorpe et al.High glucose, particularly in oscillating conditions, produces an increase in oxidative stress and has been shown to result in an increase in diabetic complications, retinopathy in particular. The hypothesis of this work was that chronic exposure to intermittent high glucose results in an attenuated induction of an antioxidant response as compared to continuous high glucose exposure in isolated retinal cells … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,453 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Characterization of Soybean Mosaic Virus NIa Protein and its Processing Event in Bacterial ExpressionBong K. Choi, Jae S. Park, Hye J. Ahn et al.Soybean mosaic virus (SMV)-CN18 is an Rsv resistance-breaking (RB) isolate to overcome soybean resistance genes Rsv1, Rsv3 and Rsv4. The aim of this study was to characterize nuclear inclusion protein a (NIa protein) of RB isolate at the molecular level and demonstrate its processing into genome-linked protein (VPg) and NIa-Pro domains in Esherichia coli containing a bacterial expression pET vector … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,902 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiochemical Effects of Recombinant Porcine Somatotropin on Pig Fetal Growth and Metabolism: A ReviewD. Villanueva-García, S. A. Olmos-Hernández, D. Mota-Rojas et al.Prenatal development is mainly dependent on a close interrelation between nutritional supply use and regulation by hormones and growth factors. Mechanisms during early embryonic development are sensitive to manipulation through selected management strategies of the sow and modifications of this strategy may serve as a model for the examination of molecular and cellular events controlling early embryonic growth. The administration … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,620 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Analysis of Call Admission Control in WCDMA Systems with Mobility based Interference Margin ReservationS. Malarkkan, V. C. RavichandranThis study presents performance of call admission control and resource reservation schemes based on the mobility of the users in WCDMA cellular systems. In order to guarantee the handoff dropping probability, the mobility of the user is predicted based on a realistic mobility model. The mobility prediction scheme used in this study is used to estimate the set of candidate … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2006 · 6,384 accessesView PDFCite
