The decomposability of additive hereditary properties of graphs

An additive hereditary property of graphs is a class of simple graphs which is closed under unions, subgraphs and isomorphisms. If P1, . . . ,Pn are properties of graphs, then a (P1, . . . ,Pn)-decomposition of a graph G is a partition E1, . . . , En of E(G) such that G[Ei], the subgraph of G induced by Ei, is in Pi, for i = 1, . . . , n. We define P1⊕· · ·⊕ Pn as the property {G ∈ I : G has a ...

Phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitor GPD-1116 markedly attenuates the development of cigarette smoke-induced emphysema in senescence-accelerated mice P1 strain.

Phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) is an intracellular enzyme specifically degrading cAMP, a second messenger exerting inhibitory effects on many inflammatory cells. To investigate whether GPD-1116 (a PDE4 inhibitor) prevents murine lungs from developing cigarette smoke-induced emphysema, the senescence-accelerated mouse (SAM) P1 strain was exposed to either fresh air or cigarette smoke for 8 wk with o...

An emerging issue of mixed yeast cultures.

BACKGROUND Different yeast species have different susceptibilities to commonly prescribed antifungal drugs. Thus, it is important to accurately determine the species of pathogenic yeasts, especially when more than one species are in a specimen. METHODS Clinically significant yeast isolates were collected via the Taiwan Surveillance of Antimicrobial Resistance of Yeasts from July to September ...
