We propose that the rate of creation and failure of new firm start-ups can be modelled as a search and matching process, as in labor market matching models. Deriving an "entrepreneurial" Beveridge curve, we show that a successful start-up depends on the efficiency with which entrepreneurial ability is matched with business opportunity, and outline a number of possible applications of this match...

What makes entrepreneurs different? Using a cross-country dataset, this paper explores essential parts of the value system of entrepreneurs in Western European countries by comparing value items of the self-employed to that of the non-self-employed. The selfemployed rate values higher that aim toward openness to change and self-enhancement. In turn, values related to conservation are considered...

hDM2 is recognized in vivo by a short alpha-helix within the p53 trans-activation domain (p53AD). Disruption of the p53.hDM2 interaction is an important goal for cancer therapy. A functional epitope comprised of three residues on one face of the p53AD helix (F19, W23, and L26) contributes heavily to the binding free energy. We hypothesized that the p53AD functional epitope would be recapitulate...

The contribution of specific HLA Class II alleles in type 1 diabetes is determined by polymorphic amino acid epitopes that direct antigen binding therefore, along with conventional allele frequency analysis, epitope analysis can provide important insights into disease susceptibility. We analyzed the highly heterogeneous Cypriot population for the HLA class II loci of T1DM patients and controls ...

One hundred and three cases of Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma were evaluated immunohistochemically using a panel of monoclonal antibodies which includes leucocyte common antigen (LCA), CD45R (Pan-B marker), L-26 (CD 20-Pan-B marker) and UCHL-1 (Pan-T marker). Of the total 63 cases (61.17%) showed a B-cell phenotype while 40 (38.83%) were of T-cell origin. Most B-cell neoplasms belonged to intermediate ...

For decades, entrepreneurship and strategy research has been dominated by agent-centric inward-looking theoretical perspectives. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic demonstrates the limits of this stance, as its influence on business both enormous palpable. most part, effects are no doubt negative. Business research—and presumably practice—typically address such in terms failure, resilience, crisis m...

Although multiple interactions of seminiferous tubules and the interstitial testicular tissue are known, correlation of cytokeratin 18 expressing Sertoli cells with interstitial changes has still not yet been reported. Considering this fact, we focused our investigation on changes of the adjacent interstitial tissue. A total sample of 51 testicular biopsies (from infertile patients) showing mix...

OBJECTIVE To describe the immunohistochemical characteristics of knee synovium from normal healthy subjects. METHODS 12 healthy subjects underwent needle biopsy of knee synovium. Using antibodies directed against CD3, CD4, CD8, L26, Kp-1,and HLA-DR, detailed quantitative immunohistochemical analysis of various cell subpopulations was undertaken. RESULTS The mean (SD) age of the subjects was...
