Proteins are polypeptide chains consisting of a large number of amino acid residues that are covalently linked together via amide bonds. The order in which the 20 different amino acids are arranged in a protein chain is also called the primary structure of the protein. The polypeptide backbones of proteins exist in particular conformations known as the secondary structures. The secondary struct...

Macrophages are In large part responsible for the subendothellal deposition of llpld within the artery wall during the early stages of atherogenesls. Proteoglycans secreted by these cells may play a role In this pathological process either by trapping llpoprotelns In the extracellular matrix or by enhancing the formation of llpld-laden foam cells. The synthesis and secretion of proteoglycan was...

How can we effectively tell whether learners have acquired, and exhibit outcomes that were initially established for them, instructions tailored to? This question leads to assessment of learning or instructional results. It is instance held an outcomes-based approach this requires assessment, in authentic ways, what considered be most important students’ attainments. Unfortunately, the use inap...

The synthesis and characterization of a set of conjugated polymers, poly(1,4-phenylene-ethynylene)-alt-poly(1,4-phenylene-vinylene)s (PPE-PPVs), with a dissymmetrical configuration (partial or total) of alkoxy side chains is reported. Five new polymers bearing octyloxy and/or octadecyloxy side chains at the phenylene-ethynylene and phenylene-vinylene segments, respectively, were obtained. Two s...

As we progress in the exciting area of treatment of acute myocardial infarction, two clinical trial methodologies coming from different philosophies and traditions must be considered. Smaller (200-3000 patient), detailed trials focusing on pathophysiology will be referred to as "mini-trials", while mammoth studies (10 000-50 000 patients) designed to measure mortality rates will be referred to ...
