In this paper we study a nonlocal diffusion model with double free boundaries in time periodic environment, which is the natural extension of boundary [17], where local used to describe population dispersal. We give existence and uniqueness global solution consider properties principle eigenvalue time-periodic parabolic-type pr...

Apolipoprotein B-100 (apo B) is the sole protein component of normal human low density lipoprotein (LDL). Elevated levels of LDL have been correlated with atherosclerosis and other coronary artery diseases. The large size of apo B (4536 aa) necessitates that it be studied in pieces corresponding to its structurally organized domains. The 17% N-terminal domain of apo B, simply B17, poses as one ...

Biocontrol of postharvest decay on apples could provide an alternative approach for chemical control. With the effort to look for effective biocontrol agents, Bacillus pumilus (B19), B. subtilis (B11), B. cereus (B16), B. subtilis (B11), B. cereus (B17), B. brevis (EN63-1) and B. licheniformis (EN74-1) were tested for their potential activity against gray mold caused by Botrytis mali on Golden ...

We have investigated the structural and electronic properties of the B(17)(-) and B(18)(-) clusters using photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) and ab initio calculations. The adiabatic electron detachment energies of B(17)(-) and B(18)(-) are measured to be 4.23 ± 0.02 and 3.53 ± 0.05 eV, respectively. Calculated electron detachment energies are compared with experimental data, confirming the prese...

The Daudi cell line is a B-lymphoblastoid line derived from a Burkitt lymphoma. Daudi cells lack cell surface expression of class I HLA molecules despite the presence of intracellular class I heavy chains. They have a defect in the gene encoding beta 2-microglobulin (beta 2m), resulting in lack of translatable mRNA for this protein. It has been thought that this deficiency is responsible for th...

BACKGROUND Various studies worldwide suggest that human leukocyte antigen (HLA) region may be involved in the genetic susceptibility of vitiligo but little information is available from India. AIM To find the HLA associated susceptibility to develop vitiligo in Indian patients and to detect role of HLA in familial vitiligo. METHODS This was a case controlled study which included all patient...

The most common type of nasopharyngeal tumor is nasopharyngeal carcinoma. The etiology is multifactorial with race, genetics, environment and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) all playing a role. While rare in Caucasian populations, it is one of the most frequent nasopharyngeal cancers in Chinese, and has endemic clusters in Alaskan Eskimos, Indians, and Aleuts. Interestingly, as native-born Chinese mig...
