A Gram-positive, coccoid, non-endospore-forming actinobacterium (strain 12-Be-011(T)) was isolated from indoor wall material. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons, strain 12-Be-011(T) was clearly shown to belong to the genus Microlunatus and was most closely related to Microlunatus panaciterrae Gsoil 954(T) (95.7 %), Microlunatus soli CC-12602(T) (94.9 %), Microlunatus ginsengisoli Gsoil...

The heterogeneous precipitation of the ? (MgZn2) phase on E (Al18Mg3Cr2) dispersoids 7075 aluminum alloy was systematically investigated by atomic resolution high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDX). It is found that coarse particles are heterogeneously precipitated at particle interface after water quenc...

Clusterin is a stress-associated cytoprotective chaperone up-regulated by various apoptotic triggers in many cancers and confers treatment resistance when overexpressed. The objectives of this study were to evaluate clusterin expression levels in human breast cancer and to determine whether antisense oligonucleotides or double-stranded small interfering RNAs (siRNA) targeting the clusterin gene...

The present study characterized the effects of TS-011 [N-(3-chloro-4-morpholin-4-yl) phenyl-N'-hydroxyimido formamide], a new selective inhibitor of the synthesis of 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE), on the metabolism of arachidonic acid by human and rat renal microsomes and the inhibitory effects of this compound on hepatic cytochrome P450 enzymes involved in drug metabolism. The effe...

Three InAsSbBi samples are grown by molecular beam epitaxy at 400 °C on GaSb substrates with three different offcuts: (100) on-axis, offcut 1° toward [011], and 4° [011]. The investigated using X-ray diffraction, Nomarski optical microscopy, atomic force transmission electron photoluminescence spectroscopy. layers 210 nm thick, coherently strained, show no observable defects. substrate is not o...

The simulations of field-evaporation processes for surface atoms on W(011) and Mo(011) surfaces are implemented using first-principles calculations based on the real-space finite-difference method. The threshold values of the external electric field for evaporation of the surface atoms, which are ∼ 6 V/Å for tungsten and ∼ 5 V/Å for molybdenum, are in agreement with the experimental results. Wh...

The original version of the paper reports that "OGX-011 is a second generation 21-mer oligonucleotide with a 20-O-(2-methoxy)-ethyl modification, generously provided by OncoGenex Technologies (OncoGenex, Vancouver, Canada)" [1] (p. 10602). OGX-011 was not provided by OncoGenex Technologies directly. Therefore, we would like to correct the wording to: "OGX-011 was obtained without the benefit of...
