BACKGROUND Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most lethal and prevalent cancers in human population. The 6-fluoro-3-formylchromone (FCC) has been shown to have anti-tumor activity against various tumor cells. However, the effects of FCC on HCC cell lines have not yet been reported. This study aims to research the effects of FCC on HCC and advance the understanding of the molecular mec...

This retrospective study of diffuse mixed (DM) cell lymphoma was undertaken as a collaborative study between the Repository Center for Lymphoma Clinical Studies and four cooperative oncology groups (CALGB, ECOG, SECSG, SWOG), and was based on 62 patients from the files of the Repository Center. We wanted to ascertain whether there were any significant clinical differences among the various morp...

Fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) is one of the major conversion technologies in the oil refinery industry. FCC currently produces the majority of the world's gasoline, as well as an important fraction of propylene for the polymer industry. In this critical review, we give an overview of the latest trends in this field of research. These trends include ways to make it possible to process either ve...

We investigate the solid phases of the restricted primitive model (RPM). Monte Carlo simulations show the existence of an order-disorder transition from a substitutionally disordered face centered cubic lattice (fcc) to a new ordered fcc structure which is proposed as the ground state of the RPM at the close packing density. Our results suggest that the new phase might turn out in a new triple ...

Combining transmission electron microscopes and density functional theory calculations, we report the nucleation and growth mechanisms of room temperature rolling induced face-centered cubic titanium (fcc-Ti) in polycrystalline hexagonal close packed titanium (hcp-Ti). Fcc-Ti and hcp-Ti take the orientation relation: 〈0001〉hcp||〈001〉fcc and , different from the conventional one. The nucleation ...

the catalytic cracking of a fuel oil over fluid catalytic cracking (fcc) catalyst has been investigated applying different additives. catalyst mixtures consisting of a equilibrium fcc catalyst (e-cat) blended with zsm-5, mcm-41 and mordenite additives were examined at the additive levels of 25 wt.%. the catalytic performance of the matrix was studied in a fixed bed micro-activity test unit (mat...

The Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) charge to promote the public interest in the communications sector encompasses a mandate to foster competition.1 The FCC is far from the only federal agency with an interest in competitive communications markets. The Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the nation’s generalist antitrust enforc...

To understand the effects of lattice mismatch on heteroepitaxial growth, we have studied equilibrium structure and orientation relationships (ORs) FCC films grown epitaxially substrates, using molecular dynamics simulations in conjunction with embedded atom method potentials. Three film/substrate systems been investigated, namely: Ag Cu, Ni Pb Al. These cover a significant range mismatch, from ...
