AdipoRon may be benefit for atherosclerosis prevention

Atherosclerosis has serious role in coronary arteries disease,so it is important to establish effective strategies for prevention or even treatment of atherosclerosis. Adiponectin, as one of the most abundant adipokines, has insulin sensitivity, anti-inflammatory and anti-atherogenic properties. Disturbed adiponectin actions through its receptor, (AdipoR1 and AdipoR2) may be involved in atheros...

Carbon metabolism of Beauveria bassiana may be related to virulence against Plutella xylostella and Leptinotarsa decemlineata

The Commutant of L(h) in Its Ultrapower May or May Not Be Trivial

Kirchberg asked in 2004 whether the commutant of L(H) in its (norm) ultrapower is trivial. Assuming the Continnuum Hypothesis, we prove that the answer depends on the choice of the ultrafilter. Let H be a separable infinite dimensional complex Hilbert space, fixed throughout. The purpose of this paper is to prove that, assuming the Continnuum Hypothesis, the commutant of L(H) (the algebra of bo...

How Dreams And Memory May Be Related

I present a theory of dreams and long term memory structure that proposes that both entities are closely related. It is based on a variation of Freud's dream theory: (1) I re-label Freud's "Unconscious" the “Long Term Memory Structure” (LTMS), (2) I propose that dreams are ever present excitational responses to perturbations of perceptions and thought, during waking life as well as sleep, which...

Confusing medical terms: disease that may or may not exist.

Patients often quote diseases or illnesses that either do not exist per se or are hard to prove that they exist. Often symptoms are vague and, therefore, difficult for patients to qualify in a language clinicians can understand, interpret and act upon. Physicians often perpetuate this by giving 'diagnoses of exclusion', or using poor explanations, oversimplifications, conflicting diagnostic cri...
