to get a mole of a gas, it is necessary to calculate the intermolecular interaction. theseintermolecular interactions can be depicted by drawing the potential energy of a pair molecule inrelation to the distance. the intermolecular potential energy surface in the mixtures of ch4-h2cogases from ab initio calculations has been explored. in ab initio calculations the basis setsuperposition error (...

Induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells, are a type of pluripotent stem cell derived from adult somatic cells. They have been reprogrammed through inducing genes and factors to be pluripotent. iPS cells are similar to embryonic stem (ES) cells in many aspects. This review summarizes the recent progresses in iPS cell reprogramming and iPS cell based therapy, and describe patient specific iPS cells ...

PURPOSE Somatic cells can be reprogrammed into an embryonic stem cell-like pluripotent state by Oct-3/4, Sox2, c-Myc, and Klf4. Sox2 as an essential reprogramming factor also contributes to the development of the eye and the retina. This study was conducted to determine whether induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells express retinal progenitor cell (RPC)-related genes and whether iPS cells can dir...

AIMS Mouse and human fibroblasts can be directly reprogrammed to pluripotency by the ectopic expression of four transcription factors (Oct3/4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc) to yield induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. iPS cells can be generated even without the expression of c-Myc. The present study examined patterns of differentiation of mouse iPS cells into cardiomyocytes in three different cell l...

BACKGROUND Induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells can differentiate into any cell type, which makes them an attractive resource in fields such as regenerative medicine, drug screening, or in vitro toxicology. The most important prerequisite for these industrial applications is stable supply and uniform quality of iPS cells. Variation in quality largely results from differences in handling skills ...

in this paper we define ?-independent (a weak-version of independence), kronecker and dissociate sets on hypergroups and study their properties and relationships among them and some other thin sets such as independent and sidon sets. these sets have the lacunarity or thinness property and are very useful indeed. for example varopoulos used the kronecker sets to prove the malliavin theorem. in t...

The intraparietal sulcus (IPS) is recruited during tasks requiring attention, maintenance and manipulation of information in working memory (WM). While WM tasks often show broad bilateral engagement along the IPS, topographic maps of contralateral (CL) visual space have been identified along the IPS, similar to retinotopic maps in visual cortex. In the present study, we asked how these visuotop...

Down syndrome (DS), or Trisomy 21 (T21) syndrome, one of the most common chromosomal abnormalities, is caused by an extra duplication of chromosome 21. In studies of neuron development, experimental models based on human cells are considered to be the most desired and accurate for basic research. The generation of diseased induced pluripotetn stem (iPS) cell is a critical step in understanding ...

Recent studies have reported that induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells from mice and humans can differentiate into primordial germ cells. However, whether iPS cells are capable of producing male germ cells is not known. The objective of this study was to investigate the differentiation potential of mouse iPS cells into spermatogonial stem cells and late-stage male germ cells. We used an approac...
