Radiation Damage, Amino Acid Transformation, Electron Microscopy For the transformation o f glutamic acid into a-aminobutyric acid upon irradiation a decarboxylation mechanism involving the formation of C 0 2 has been proposed pre­ viously. Here we present further experimental evidence in favour of this mechanism. Additionally the formation of CO as a decarboxylation product has been detected; ...

The V617F mutation of Janus-associated kinase 2 (JAK2) is commonly seen in myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN). Transformation of JAK2 positive MPNs to acute leukemia has been reported. We here report a case of acute promyelocytic leukemia which was later confirmed to have a co-existing JAK2 V617F positive MPN. In addition, the patient was found to have FLT3-TKD mutation, which, together with PM...

A highly selective cascade reaction that allows the direct transformation of dienallenes to spirocyclobutenes (spiro[3.4]octenes) as single isomers has been developed. The reaction involves formation of overall four C-C bonds and proceeds via a palladium-catalyzed oxidative transformation with insertion of olefin, olefin, and carbon monoxide. Under slightly different reaction conditions an addi...

Bending property of Ti-Ni alloy dental castings was evaluated in comparison with that of Co-Cr alloy in a cantilever test. Heat treatment effect on the bending property was also investigated in relation to phase transformation. Ti-50.85Ni (mol%) alloy was used, and the shape of bending test specimens was half-rounded in cross section, 2.0mm in diameter. The bending test was carried out at 310K....

We present herein the first in situ site-selective XAS experiment performed on a proof-of-principle transformation of a mixed-valence compound: the calcination of the K0.1Co(II)4[Co(III)(CN)6]2.7·20H2O Prussian Blue analogue (containing Co(2+) and Co(3+) ions in two different Oh sites) into Co3O4 (containing Co(2+) ions in a Td site and Co(3+) in an Oh site). By recording the Co K-edge X-ray ab...

Brain injuries that caused by strokes (result of intra partum ischemia) are a frequent cause of prenatal mortality and morbidity with limited therapeutic options. Transplanting human mesenchymal stem cells (hmscs) indicates improvement in hypoxic Ischemic brain injury (HIBD) by secretion growth factor stimulating repair processes (Hmscs) known as multi potent cells which isolated from bone marr...
