The mean time to reach a threshold (MTT) is the mean first passage time for the number of bound molecules to reach a given value. In the theory of chemical reactions involving a small number of ligands and molecules, the MTT represents the first time a given number of binding sites is formed. In that context, the MTT can be used to characterize the stability of chemical processes, especially wh...

The MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide) cleavage assay, originally described by Mosmann (1983, J. Immunol. Methods 65, 55) for measuring cell survival/proliferation, has been used successfully to quantitate macrophage-mediated cytotoxicity. Peritoneal macrophages, from control or pyran copolymer MVE2-treated mice and from TU5 and L929 murine cell lines, were used ...

OBJECTIVE To determine whether there is an association between the Veterans Health Administration Medical Team Training (MTT) program and surgical morbidity. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS A retrospective health services study was conducted with a contemporaneous control group. Outcome data were obtained from the Veterans Health Administration Surgical Quality Improvement Program. The anal...

Mental time travel (MTT) is the ability to mentally project oneself backward or forward in time in order to remember an event from one's personal past or to imagine a possible event in one's personal future. Past and future MTT share many similarities, and there is evidence to suggest that the two temporal directions rely on a shared neural network and similar cognitive structures. At the same ...

BACKGROUND To evaluate organ atrophy induced by sorafenib and sunitinib, we retrospectively reviewed the CT scans of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients receiving molecular targeted therapy (MTT) using sorafenib or sunitinib, and performed volumetric analysis of the pancreas, thyroid gland, and spleen. MATERIAL/METHODS Thirteen RCC patients receiving MTT were assigned as the evaluation cases ...

Dimethyl sulfoxide reductase is a heterotrimeric enzyme (DmsABC) localized to the cytoplasmic surface of the inner membrane. Targeting of the DmsA and DmsB catalytic subunits to the membrane requires the membrane targeting and translocation (Mtt) system. The DmsAB dimer is a member of a family of extrinsic, cytoplasmic facing membrane subunits that require Mtt in order to assemble on the membra...

cancer is a major cause of death worldwide and causes serious problems in human life. it is developed by uncontrolled growth of a cell or a group of cells. there are many difficulties in treatment of cancer and many researchers are involved in investigating for effective drugs to treat the disease. caryophyllaceae is a large family of about 86 genera and 2200 herbaceous or subshrub species. the...
