Three forms of the RNA-dependent DNA polymerase were isolated from highly purified avian sarcoma virus B77 grown in duck embryo fibroblasts, using sequential chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, phosphocellulose, and poly(U)-cellulose. One form, which sedimented with about 5.2 S, contained only one species of polypeptide, with a molecular weight of 63,000; a second sedimented with about 7.8 S and ...

The present study investigated the activation and sensitization effects of local injection of P2X receptor agonist alpha,beta-methylene ATP (alphabeta-meATP) into the receptive fields of afferent fibers innervating dorsal hairy skin in anesthetized rats. Single unit activities of afferent fibers were recorded by means of isolation of the fiber filaments from the dorsal cutaneous nerve branch. A...

Murine Lyme borreliosis, caused by infection with the spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi, results in acute arthritis and carditis that regress as a result of B. burgdorferi-specific immune responses. B. burgdorferi-specific antibodies can attenuate arthritis in mice deficient in both B cells and T cells but have no effect on carditis. Because macrophages comprise the principal immune cell in cardi...

Postnatal thymic involution occurs progressively throughout the first 3 decades of life. It predominantly affects T-cell receptor (TCR) alphabeta-lineage precursors, with a consequent proportional increase in multipotent thymic precursors. We show that T-acute lymphoblastic leukemias (T-ALLs) demonstrate a similar shift with age from predominantly TCR expressing to an immature (IM0/delta/gamma)...

UNLABELLED In the present study, the adrenergic receptor (AR) subtype mediating adrenergic augmentation of P2X(3) receptor-mediated nociceptive responses on sensory nerve endings was examined by using selective AR receptor agonists and antagonists in Sprague Dawley rats in the uninjured state. Local administration of alphabeta-methyleneATP (ligand for P2X3/P2X2/3 receptors) into the plantar hin...

Ideal Connes-amenability of dual Banach algebras was investigated in [17] by A. Minapoor, A. Bodaghi and D. Ebrahimi Bagha. They studied weak∗continuous derivations from dual Banach algebras into their weak∗-closed two- sided ideals. This work considers weak∗-continuous derivations of dual triangular Banach algebras into their weak∗-closed two- sided ideals . We investigate when weak∗continuous...

Categorial grammars in the tradition of Lambek [18, 19] are asymmetric: sequent statements are of the form Γ ⇒ A, where the succedent is a single formula A, the antecedent a structured configuration of formulas A1, . . . , An. The absence of structural context in the succedent makes the analysis of a number of phenomena in natural language semantics problematic. A case in point is scope constru...

Let $A_1$, $A_2$ be unital Banach algebras and $X$ be an $A_1$-$A_2$- module. Applying the concept of module maps, (inner) modulegeneralized derivations and  generalized first cohomology groups, wepresent several results concerning the relations between modulegeneralized derivations from $A_i$ into the dual space $A^*_i$ (for$i=1,2$) and such derivations  from  the triangular Banach algebraof t...
