We consider the quantum state describing the Disoriented Chiral Condensate (DCC), which may be produced in high energy collisions. We show how a mean eld treatment of the quantum equations corresponding to the classical linear sigma model leads to a squeezed state description of the pions emerging from the DCC. We examine various squeezed and coherent state descriptions of those pions with part...

Alterations and defective expression of three putative tumor-suppressor genes, the deleted in colorectal cancer (DCC), p51, and O(6)-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT), have been demonstrated in many cancers. However, it is not known whether the defective expression of each of these genes is independent or whether it reflects a specific methylation abnormality. Here, we investigated the...

[reaction: see text] Dynamic combinatorial chemistry (DCC) is a promising technique for receptor-aided selection of high-affinity ligands from equilibrating combinatorial libraries. Identification of the specific ligand(s) selected is often challenging, however, due to difficulties associated with chromatographic separation and/or mass degeneracy within the library. Herein, we describe proof-of...

Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) on chromosome 18q21 is found frequently in various human cancers. Three candidate tumor suppressor genes, DCC (deleted in colorectal carcinomas), DPC4 (deleted in pancreatic carcinomas, locus 4), and MADR2/JV18-1 (MAD-related gene 2), have been cloned and identified from this chromosome region. We have reported recently that LOH on chromosome 18q is observed frequen...

Acquired pointmutationswithin the BCR-ABL kinase domain represent a commonmechanismof resistance to ABL inhibitor therapy in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). The BCR-ABL mutant is highly resistant to imatinib, nilotinib, and dasatinib, and is frequently detected in relapsed patients. This critical gap in resistance coverage drove development of DCC-2036, an ABL inhibitor that binds...

Spectral over-smoothing is still observable in the converted spectral envelope when linear multivariate regression (LMR) based spectrum mapping is adopted to convert voice. Therefore, in this paper, we study to place a histogram-equalization (HEQ) module immediately before LMR based mapping and to place a target frame selection (TFS) module immediately after LMR based mapping. These two modules...
