MCR Statement of Work

Autophagy degrades cytoplasmic components and is important for development and human health. Although autophagy is known to be influenced by systemic intercellular signals, the proteins that control autophagy are largely thought to function within individual cells. Here, we report that Drosophila macroglobulin complement-related (Mcr), a complement ortholog, plays an essential role during devel...

This paper is concerned with radio resource allocation in multiple-chip-rate (MCR) DS/CDMA systems accommodating multimedia services with di erent information rates and quality requirements. Considering power spectral density (PSD) over a radio frequency (RF) band and the effect of RF input ltering on the receiver in MCR-DS/CDMA systems, we present criteria for capacity estimation and clarify t...

With the use of three human lung cultured cell lines: normal diploid fibroblasts (WI38), their SV40-transformants (VA13) and carcinoma cells (A549), whose doubling times were similar, the cytotoxicity of the protein antitumor antibiotics, auromomycin (AUR) and macromomycin (MCR), was studied by colony formation method. The susceptibilities of the three cell lines to these antibiotics were in th...

Additional chromosomal abnormalities are currently detected in Burkitt's lymphoma. They play major roles in the progression of BL and in prognosis. The genes involved remain elusive. A whole-genome oligonucleotide array CGH analysis correlated with karyotype and FISH was performed in a set of 27 Burkitt's lymphoma-derived cell lines and primary tumors. More than half of the 145 CNAs<2 Mb were m...

The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the effect staining, glazing, and polishing on wear behavior stabilized zirconia with 5 mol% yttrium oxide (5Y-TZP) opposing 5Y-TZP, leucite-reinforced ceramic (LC), lithium disilicate (LD), microhybrid composite resin (MCR). Hemispheres 5Y-TZP were divided into six groups (n = 10) according finishing procedure: C (control), S (staining), G (gla...

Desorption electrospray ionisation (DESI) mass spectrometry images usually contain a large amount of information that can be difficult to interpret in an objective manner. We explore the use of imaging multivariate analysis (MVA) on DESI images of protein spots and rat brain sections to automatically assign peaks and improve discrimination of spatially important features. DESI parameters were o...

Previous studies have demonstrated enhanced insulin sensitivity in calorie-restricted [CR, fed 60% ad libitum (AL) one time daily] compared with AL-fed rats. To evaluate the effects of reduced food intake, independent of temporal differences in consumption, we studied AL (unlimited food access)-fed and CR (fed one time daily) rats along with groups temporally matched for feeding [fed 3 meals (M...

A nuclear power plant (NPP) is operated by operators in a main control room (MCR). Usually, the operators in an MCR consist of three to five operators and the number of operators is different according to the plant type. The operators always monitor the plant status and manipulate the control devices when necessary. The MCR operators perform a supervisory role of information gathering, planning...
