Human small cell lung cancers (SCLC) produce and secrete the regulatory peptide bombesin (BN) or its mammalian counterpart gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP). In addition, several SCLC tumor lines have been shown to express high affinity receptors for BN/GRP. On the basis of these findings, we investigated the effect of exogenously added BN and GRP on the soft agarose colony growth of a panel of h...

We give criteria for the rationality of Cantor series ∑ ∞ n=1 bn a1···an and series ∑ ∞ n=1 bn an where a1, a2, · · · and b1, b2, · · · are integers such that an > 0 and the series converge. We precisely say when ∑ ∞ n=1 bn a1···an is rational (i) if {an} ∞ n=1 is a monotonic sequence of integers and bn+1 − bn = o(an+1) or lim supn→∞( bn+1 an+1 − bn an ) ≤ 0, and (ii) if bn+1 an+1−1 ≤ bn an−1 f...

در این مقاله به بررسی ارتعاشات آزاد نانولوله کربنی تک جداره و نیز پاسخ دینامیکی آن به ذره متحرک پرداخته شده است. از مدل پوسته استوانه ای غیرمحلی با در نظرگرفتن فرضیه تغییر شکل مرتبه اول برشی برای مدل سازی نانولوله کربنی روی تکیه گاه ساده استفاده شده است. پس از حل معادلات، نتایج با نتایج حاصل از شبیه سازی نانولوله در نرم افزار اجزای محدود مقایسه شده و تطابق بسیار بالایی میان نتایج وجود دارد. در ...

OBJECTIVE To classify type 1 diabetic females with bulimia nervosa (BN) by type of inappropriate compensatory behavior in order to prevent weight gain (ICB) and to investigate the group differences. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Type 1 diabetic females with BN, diagnosed by structured diagnostic interview based on DSM-IV (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th ed.) criteria,...

Cationic BN-embedded polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (BN-PAH+s) were synthesized from a nitrogen-containing macrocycle via pyridine-directed tandem C?H borylation. Incorporating BN into PAH+ resulted in remarkable hypsochromic shift due to an increase the LUMO energy and symmetry changes of HOMO LUMO. Electrophilic substitution or anion exchange BN-PAH+ possessing tetrabromoborate as counter (...
