Submitted for the MAR06 Meeting of The American Physical Society Suppression of Non-Resonant Background in Broadband Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Scattering Microscopy with Interferometry1 TAK KEE, MARCUS CICERONE, National Institute of Standards and Technology — We demonstrate an interferometric technique for suppressing non-resonant background in broadband coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering ...

The impact of reactivity ratios determined with the Nelder and Mead simplex method on the kinetic-model discrimination and the solvent-effect determination for the styrene/acrylonitrile monomer system was investigated. For the monomer system, the penultimate unit effect was inversely proportional to the polarity of the solvent: acetonitrile , N,N-dimethylformamide , methyl ethyl ketone , toluen...

This paper sets out a framework for estimating household preferences over a broad range of housing and neighborhood characteristics, some of which are determined by the way that households sort in the housing market. This framework brings together the treatment of heterogeneity and selection that has been the focus of the traditional discrete choice literature with a clear strategy for dealing ...

We investigate whether expectations that are not fully rational have the potential to explain the evolution of house prices and the price-to-rent ratio in the United States. First, a stylized asset-pricing model solved under rational expectations is used to derive a fundamental value for house prices and the price-rent ratio. Although the model can explain the sample average of the price-rent r...

Savings, Asset Holdings, and Temporary Migration This paper analyzes savings and asset holdings of immigrants in relation to their return plans. We argue that savings and asset accumulation may be affected by return plans of immigrants. Further, the way savings and assets are held in the homeand host country may also be related to future return plans. Thus, comparing savings and assets between ...

Partner (Dis)agreement on Moving Desires and the Subsequent Moving Behaviour of Couples Residential mobility decisions are known to be made at the household level. However, most empirical analyses of residential mobility relate moving behaviour to the housing and neighbourhood satisfaction and pre-move thoughts of individuals. If partners in a couple do not share evaluations of dwelling or neig...

Abstract Human Noxa, the smallest BH3-only Bcl-2 protein, was originally identified as pro-apoptotic, but has since also been shown to promote cell growth in both malignant and activated normal T cells by facilitating proliferative metabolism (Lowman et al., 2010, Mol Cell, 40, 823–33; Hanse 2017, Oncogene, 36, 3915–3924). To investigate contribution of Noxa immune response, we tracked its expr...

Abstract In the absence of Th1 master regulator, T-box transcription factor, T-bet, CD4 T cells primed by Influenza A Virus (IAV) infection, gain Th17 attributes while still retaining robust functionality. We recently found factor Eomesodermin (Eomes), to regulate this residual identity T-bet −/−CD4 cells. However, it is unclear how Eomes regulated in cells, especially during antiviral response...

Abstract Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy is a promising treatment for lymphoblastic leukemia and lymphoma. Despite initial response to CAR-T therapy, about 40% of patients relapse. Modulating metabolism (immunometabolism) being considering as novel approach improve efficacy. We have identified MCJ (DnaJC15) target enhance mitochondrial metabolism. an endogenous negative regulator...

Abstract Thymic T cell differentiation is controlled by stereotyped processes that remain obscure. Here we develop a novel mouse genetic tool to trace thymic cells during antigen receptor (TCR) rearrangement. Briefly, insert inducible CreER into the Rag1 locus transiently expressed at early differentiation. In presence of Rosa reporters, Rag1-CreER mice enable us irreversibly label between doub...
