The Reelin-Dab1 signaling pathway regulates development of the mammalian brain, including neuron migrations in various brain regions, as well as learning and memory in adults. Extracellular Reelin binds to cell surface receptors and activates phosphorylation of the intracellular Dab1 protein. Dab1 is required for most effects of Reelin, but Dab1-independent pathways may contribute. Here we deve...

In many of the studies concerning Accelerated life testing (ALT), the log linear function between life and stress which is just a simple re-parameterization of the original parameter of the life distribution is used to obtain the estimates of original parameters but from the statistical point of view, it is preferable to work with the original parameters instead of developing inferences for the...

In this study, five new asymmetrical fullerene-free acceptor molecules (N1 to N5) have been designed for organic solar cell applications. Density functional theory and time dependent density has employed exploring the opto-electronic, photovoltaic geometric properties of molecules. A narrow energy band gap with high red-shifting in absorption spectrum noted. High open circuit voltage good value...

This paper describes a new class of structured optical materials--lattice opto-materials--that can manipulate the flow of visible light into a wide range of three-dimensional profiles using evolutionary design principles. Lattice opto-materials are based on the discretization of a surface into a two-dimensional (2D) subwavelength lattice whose individual lattice sites can be controlled to achie...

In this paper, three organic semiconductors such as 9-[(5-nitropyridin-2-aminoethyl)iminiomethyl]-anthracene (a), N?-((pyren-4-yl)methylene)isonicotinohydrazide (b), and novel semiconductor N-(2-((pyren-4-yl)methyleneamino)ethyl)-5-nitropyridin-2-amine (c) were prepared. Their structures assessed using NMR elemental analysis techniques. While compound (a) have the same wing unit ([(5-nitropyrid...

Wirelessly interconnected nanorobots, i.e., engineered devices of sizes ranging from one to a few hundred nanometers, are promising revolutionary diagnostic and therapeutic medical applications that could enhance the treatment of major diseases. Each nanorobot is usually designed to perform a set of basic tasks such as sensing and actuation. A dense wireless network of nano-devices, i.e., a nan...

Transfer of debris flow caused by floods in the river downstream of the mountains leads to several damages every year. Numerous researches have been carried out on the Mountain Rivers the results of which show the importance of performing more researches to control debris flows in the floodplain because of various effective hydraulic-geometric parameters.For this purpose, AbNik Mountain River l...

We propose and experimentally demonstrate a 2.5 Gbits/sper user wavelength-encoded optical code-division multiple-access encoder-decoder structure based on opto-VLSI processing. Each encoder and decoder is constructed using a single 1D opto-very-large-scale-integrated (VLSI) processor in conjunction with a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) array of different Bragg wavelengths. The FBG array spectrally ...

SIMULGEO is a geometrical software developed for the position monitoring system of the CMS detector at the LHC accelerator. This software is capable to model opto-geometrical systems including error propagation and geometrical reconstruction. Thanks to a special description method, any opto-geometrical system can easily be described and analysed. This report explains how to use SIMULGEO, descri...
