Nicotine elicited membrane depolarization, elevation of intracellular calcium, rubidium efflux, and release of insulin from mouse -TC6 insulinoma cells. Such responses were blocked by the nicotinic antagonist mecamylamine but not by the muscarinic antagonist atropine. Neither the selective 4 2 antagonist dihydro-erythroidine nor the selective 7 antagonist methyllycaconitine significantly blocke...

A yellow-leaf seedling marker, r, was used to determine if there was pref er en tial chromosome pairing in a group of tetraploid southern highbush blueberry hybrids. Plants with four copies of r (no copies of R) fail to develop anthocyanins, and cotyledons, hypo co t yls, leaves, stems, and other vegetative tissues have a bright yellow-green color. In the hybrids that were studied, two genomes ...

To any number eld K and positive integer one can associate a constant which in the case ofK = Q coincides with the classical Hermite constant. Wewill survey some results concerning these constants, and how one can compute some of them for quadratic number elds.

compilation: It is convenient to view a type analysis in our approach as consisting of two phases: First the program is abstracted for the given choice of types. The result is an abstract program which we call a set logic program re ecting the fact that its terms may be viewed as \ at sets" speci ed using the =2 constructor. The analysis is performed in a second stage using an operator similar ...
