Using selective cytochrome P450 (CYP) inhibitors and clinical concentrations (4 microM) of dapsone (DDS), we found a major contribution of CYP2C9 and little or no contribution (< or = 10%) of CYP3A4 and CYP2E1 to dapsone N-hydroxylation (DDS-NHY) in human liver microsomes. Sulfaphenazole (2.16 microM) and tolbutamide (500 microM), selective inhibitors of CYP2C9 (or 2C8/9), inhibited DDS-NHY by ...

Decision Diagrams (DDs) are a data structure for the representation and manipulation of discrete logic functions often applied in VLSI CAD. Common DDs to represent Boolean functions are Binary Decision Diagrams (BDDs). Multiple-valued logic functions can be represented by Multiple-valued Decision Diagrams (MDDs). The efficiency of a DD representation strongly depends on the variable ordering; t...

We describe decomposition during search (DDS) as a novel search algorithm for counting the solutions of a CSP. DDS enhances standard tree search by dynamically decomposing sub-problems into independent problems, avoiding redundant work. The paper provides formal definitions and analysis of the introduced method. We integrate DDS into a modern constraint programming system, using Gecode as an ex...

In this paper, we study the problem of constructing a regulatory network of yeast in oxidative stress process. Discrete Dynamic System (DDS) model has been introduced in describing Gene Regulatory Networks (GRNs). However, delay effect was not taken into consideration within the model. A Time-delay DDS model composed of linear difference equations is developed to represent temporal interactions...

nutritional status of historically disadvantaged smallholder food producers and their family members. Food Variety Scores (FVS) and Dietary Diversity Scores (DDS) are some of the indicators of nutritional status. This study sought to evaluate the nutritional status of children of historically disadvantaged agri-business smallholders at Alfred Nzo District. Methods: This study&rsquo;s purposeful...

In real-world applications, costs for products are not deterministic: neither static nor dynamic. They actually tend to be non-stationary and cross-correlated. To overcome this drawback, there have been some efforts by researchers to extend the Wagner–Whitin algorithm to consider stochastic costs. However, they assume that the information of probability density function of random costs exists. ...
