Tumor sensitivity to anticancer drugs such as CPT-11 and platinum derivatives was investigated by assessing Topo-1 and Bax/ERCC-1 expression in patients with stage I/II breast, lung, and gastric cancer who were positive for ONCs, and tumor sensitivity was compared between CPT-11 and platinum derivatives. In the recurrence group (RG) (n=5), immunohistochemistry revealed high expression of Topo-1...

The holographic renormalization group (RG) is reviewed in a self-contained manner. The holographic RG is based on the idea that the radial coordinate of a space-time with asymptotically AdS geometry can be identified with the RG flow parameter of the boundary field theory. After briefly discussing basic aspects of the AdS/CFT correspondence, we explain how the notion of the holographic RG comes...

Research was conducted on the effects of rotational grazing (RG) compared to continuous grazing (CG) on the behavior of cattle grazing on rangelands. Different livestock den&tics in the RG treatments were created by varying the size of paddocks in a 4651a, U-paddock, cell deaigntd RG treatment stocked at a rate of 3.6 ha/cow/yr. Paddock sizes of 30 and lo-ha were used to simulate RG with 14 (RG...

A U-paddock, celldesigned, rotational grazing (RG) system was initiated in March 1M)l to evaluate the effects of RG on various vegetation response variables and cow/calf production. This 20-month study was initiated in January 1983 to contrast herbage dynamics in the RG treatment to those in 8 yearlong continuously grazed tmtment (MC). Rate of stoclring in the RG treatment was 3.7 ha/cow/year a...

The Renormalization Group (RG) is a set of methods that have been instrumental in tackling problems involving an infinite number of degrees of freedom, such as, for example, in quantum field theory and critical phenomena. What all these methods have in common—which is what explains their success—is that they allow a systematic search for those degrees of freedom that happen to be relevant to th...

The 5-methylationcytosine (5-MC) DNA content of murine embryonic fibroblasts arrested in G1 by four growth conditions (Gc, Gn, Gd, and Gs) were hypermethylated relative to rapidly growing (RG) fibroblasts. Normal human keratinocytes (NHK) arrested in G1 by suspension were hypermethylated relative to RG cultures. Four RG cultures of epidermoid carcinoma cells (ECC) were hypomethylated relative t...

To each association scheme G and to each field R, there is associated naturally an associative algebra, the so-called adjacency algebra RG of G over R. It is well-known that RG is semisimple if R has characteristic 0. However, little is known if R has positive characteristic. In the present paper, we focus on this case. We describe the algebra RG if G is a Hamming scheme (and R a field of posit...

In the framework of the renormalization-group (RG) approach, critical phenomena can be investigated by studying the RG flow of multi-parameter Φ4 field theories with an N-component fundamental field, containing up to 4th-order polynomials of the field. Some physically interesting systems require Φ4 field theories with several quadratic and quartic parameters, depending essentially on their symm...

The traditional use of residential gateways (RGs) is limited to the owners of the RG (residential users) only. The umbrella project on the Collaborative Community Network (CCN) opens up RG infrastructure to the community by enabling wireless access to the infrastructure, thereby permitting broadband Internet sharing within neighbourhoods. Therefore, it is essential that providers (RG owners) ha...

RGG/RG domains are the second most common RNA binding domain in the human genome, yet their RNA-binding properties remain poorly understood. Here, we report a detailed analysis of the RNA binding characteristics of intrinsically disordered RGG/RG domains from Fused in Sarcoma (FUS), FMRP and hnRNPU. For FUS, previous studies defined RNA binding as mediated by its well-folded domains; however, w...
