In this paper, flip bifurcations of homoclinic orbits in conservative reversible systems are analysed. In such systems, orbit-flip and inclination-flip bifurcations occur simultaneously. It is shown that multi-pulses either do not bifurcate at all at flip bifurcation points or else bifurcate simultaneously to both sides of the bifurcation point. An application to a fifth-order model of water wa...

Purpose—To characterize the importance of cellular Fas-associated death domain (FADD)-like interleukin 1β-converting enzyme (FLICE) inhibitory protein (c-FLIP), a key regulator of caspase 8 (FLICE)-promoted apoptosis, in modulating the response of prostate cancer (CaP) cells to androgen receptor (AR)-targeted therapy. Experimental Design—c-FLIP expression was characterized by immunohistochemica...

Introduction: Non-invasive quantification of liver fat by Gradient echo (GRE) Technique is an interesting issue in quantitative MRI. Despite the numerous advantages of this technique, fat measurement maybe biased by confounding and effects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the GRE pulse sequences with different   and  weighting for liver fat quantification in patients with...

It is known that any two domino tilings of a polygon are flip-accessible, i.e., linked by a finite sequence of local transformations, called flips. This paper considers flip-accessibility for domino tilings of the whole plane, asking whether two of them are linked by a possibly infinite sequence of flips. The answer turning out to depend on tilings, we provide three equivalent characterizations...

The potential range errors lead to the possibility of flip ambiguity in wireless sensor network localization. The flip ambiguity affects the reliability of the localization of the whole or a major portion of the sensor network. In this paper, we present a detailed analysis of flip-ambiguity problems in wireless sensor networks. Based on this analysis, we establish a robustness criterion to dete...

We evaluated effect of dual gene silencing of Hsp27 and c-FLIP in doxazosin-induced apoptosis of PC-3 cell. After transfection using Hsp27 and c-FLIP siRNA mixture (dual silencing), doxazosin treatment was done at the concentrations of 1, 10, and 25  μ M. We checked apoptosis of PC-3 cells with and TUNEL staining. We also checked interaction between Hsp27 and C-FLIP in the process of apoptosis ...

A UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver and Transmitter) is a device allowing the reception and transmission of information, in a serial and asynchronous way. This project focuses on the implementation of UART with status register using multi bit flip-flop and comparing it with UART with status register using single bit flip-flops. During the reception of data, status register indicates parity ...
