Knowing that adenoviral vectors could initiate innate immunity, the ability of E1-deleted recombinant adenovirus (Ad-E1Δ) in induction of B7.1 and IL-2 molecules was studied. Methods: The expression of green fluorescent protein in C1498 cells following transfection of these cells with adenovirus green fluorescent protein vector confirmed the ability of adenovirus vectors in infecting the cells ...

Pseudo Ricci symmetric real hypersurfaces of a complex projective space are classified and it is proved that there are no pseudo Ricci symmetric real hypersurfaces of the complex projective space CPn for which the vector field ξ from the almost contact metric structure (φ, ξ, η, g) is a principal curvature vector field.

in this paper, a robust integral of the sign error (rise) feedback controller is designed for a rigid-link electrically driven (rled) robot manipulator actuated by direct current dc motor in presence of parametric uncertainties and additive disturbances. rise feedback with implicitly learning capability is a continuous control method based on the lyapunov stability analysis to compensate an add...

in this paper we introduce the concept of dirac structures on (hermitian) modules and vectorbundles and deduce some of their properties. among other things we prove that there is a one to onecorrespondence between the set of all dirac structures on a (hermitian) module and the group of allautomorphisms of the module. this correspondence enables us to represent dirac structures on (hermitian)mod...

in this paper, the time-like hyperruled surfaces in the minkowski 4-space and their algebraicinvariants are worked. also some characteristic results are found about these algebraic invariants.

support vector machine (svm) was used to analyze the occurrence of roach in flemish stream basins (belgium). several habitat and physico?chemical variables were used as inputs for the model development. the biotic variable merely consisted of abundance data which was used for predicting presence/absence of roach. genetic algorithm (ga) was combined with svm in order to select the most important...

in this paper, we establish an existence result of the solution for an generalized strong vector variational inequality already considered in the literature and as applications we obtain a new coincidence point theorem in hilbert spaces.

objective: in this study, two conserved genes (m1 and np) of influenza virus were expressed in a bicistronic vector in order to develop a universal gene based vaccine. materials and methods: plasmids m1-pires2-egfp, pires2-np were constructed by cloning the pcr products of m1 and np genes which were amplified from the a/peurto rico/8/34 (h1n1) influenza virus strain into the plasmid expression...
