Hyaluronan-binding function of the CD44 molecule has not been so far detected in myeloid cells. To study pure populations of primitive myeloid cells, we investigated the hyaluronan-binding function of the CD44 molecule from three myeloid cell lines: KGla, KGI, and HL60. Both KGla and KG1 cells express the CD34 antigen characteristic of the hematopoietic stem cells and HL60 cells do not; accordi...

The impact of full prelithiation on the rate and cycle performance a Si-based Li-ion capacitor (LIC) was investigated. Full anode achieved by assembling half cell with 2 µm-sized Si (0 V vs. Li/Li+) Li metal. A three-electrode (100% prelithiation) assembled using an activated carbon (AC) cathode high specific surface area (3041 m2/g), fully prelithiated anode, metal reference electrode. (87% 87...

Background: Experimentally induced diabetes in male rats is associated with alteration in functions of reproductive system. Acarbose, Pioglitazone and Repaglinide via decrease in blood glucose level can prevent the damage of testes. Materials and Methods: A total of 96 adult male albino rats whit a body weighing between 230- 250 g were injected by a single intraperitoneal injection of streptozo...

Magnetic interactions may lead to errors in precision mass metrology. An analytical description of such magnetic errors is presented in which the roles of both the volume magnetic susceptibility and permanent magnetization are discussed. The same formalism is then used to describe in detail the calibration and operation of a susceptometer developed at the Bureau International des Poids et Mesur...
