The transcriptional regulation of myeloperoxidase (MPO) and lactoferrin (LF) was examined during terminal myeloid differentiation of the murine cell line 32D C13. The rates of transcription initiation for MPO and LF, determined by an in vitro nuclear run-on assay, increased approximately ninefold. The accumulation of MPO mRNA in 32D C13 cells, determined by Northern blot analysis, correlated te...

BACKGROUND Ovarian cancer is the leading cause of death among gynecological cancers. Cisplatin is one of the most effective anticancer drugs used in the treatment of ovarian cancer. Development of resistance to cisplatin limits its therapeutic use. Most of the anticancer drugs, including cisplatin, are believed to kill cancer cells by inducing apoptosis and a defect in apoptotic signaling can c...

The activity coefficients at infinite dilution, c13, of 55 organic solutes and water in three ionic liquids with the common cation 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium and the polar anions Cl , [CH3SO3] and [(CH3)2PO4] , were determined by (gas + liquid) chromatography at four temperatures in the range (358.15 to 388.15) K for alcohols and water, and T = (398.15 to 428.15) K for the other organic solute...

Considerable amounts of odd-numbered fatty acids, such as non-hydroxy C15 and C17 and 3-hydroxy C11 and C13 acids, were found in lipopolysaccharides from Vibrio cholerae 35A3 (Inaba).

In this note we study the conditions under which leading models for underreported counts are identified. In particular, we highlight a peculiar identification problem that afflicts two of the most popular models in this class. JEL classification code: C13, C25.

A peptide (C13) corresponding to the last 13 amino acids of the carboxyl terminus of human platelet factor IV was found to be antibacterial. Amino acid substitutions predicted to disrupt either the amphipathic or alpha-helical nature of C13 rendered the peptide inactive. Antibacterial activity was demonstrated in normal human serum on bacteria which had been previously exposed to low levels of ...

In this paper, we use probabilistic methods of excursion theory for Lévy processes in order to value some exotic options in general exponential Lévy models. AMS 2000 Subject Classification : Primary: 60G51, 91B28, 91B70. JEL Classification: C13.

Two highly convergent syntheses of a fully protected C1-C19 polyol subunit of the brasilinolide family of immunosuppressive macrolides are described, exploiting boron-mediated 1,5-anti aldol couplings to form the C8-C9 and C13-C14 bonds.
