AN AES INVESTIGATION OF ALUMINUM, Al OXIDE AND Al NITRIDE

The aluminum-L,,VV Auger spectra for elemental Al. Al oxide and Al nitride have been measured in an assessment of the utility of Auger spectroscopy in characterizing thin oxidized Al films used in model supported-metal catalyst studies. Clearly distinct spectra were found for the three surface chemical states. The oxide spectrum was shown to be similar to published spectra from bulk, single-cry...

Snail1 and Zeb1 are E-cadherin-transcriptional repressors induced during epithelialmesenchymal-transition (EMT). In this article we have analyzed the factors controlling Zeb1 expression during EMT. In NMuMG cells treated with TGF-β, Snail1 RNA and protein are induced one hour after addition of the cytokine preceeding Zeb1 up-regulation that requires six to eight hours. Zeb1 gene expression is c...
