The functional formula diet AHP, containing polysaccharides from Auricularia auricular, polyphenolic compounds from Hawthorn (Crataegus) and Pueraria radix, has been recently developed as a dietary intervention against dyslipidemia in our previous study. In the present study, its antioxidant activities and protective effects against proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) were inv...

Abstract: When the size of a polymerization locus is smaller than a few hundred nanometers, such as in miniemulsion polymerization, each locus may contain no more than one key-component molecule, and the concentration may become much larger than the corresponding bulk polymerization, leading to a significantly different rate of polymerization. By focusing attention on the component having the l...

The first exhaustive purification and characterization of the much-studied "fullerenols", prepared by reaction of C(60) in toluene with an oxygenated, aqueous NaOH solution using tetrabutylammonium hydroxide as a phase transfer catalyst, has been performed. The resulting fullerenol is not simply polyhydroxylated C(60) but rather is a structurally and electronically complex C(60) radical anion w...

Let G be an abelian group such that A 6 G with p-component Ap and B 6 G, and let R be a commutative ring with 1 of prime characteristic p with nil-radical N(R). It is proved that if Ap 6⊆ Bp or N(R) 6= 0, then S(RG) = S(RA)(1 + Ip(RG;B)) ⇐⇒ G = AB and Gp = ApBp. In particular, if Ap 6= 1 or N(R) 6= 0, then S(RG) = S(RA) × (1 + Ip(RG;B)) ⇐⇒ G = A × B. So, the question concerning the validity of ...

Recently, a radical isogeny was proposed to boost commutative supersingular Diffie–Hellman (CSIDH) implementation. Radical isogenies reduce the generation of kernel small prime order when implementing CSIDH. However, size base field increases, exponentiation, core component computing isogenies, becomes more computationally intensive. As inevitably grows resist quantum attack, so it is necessary...

Cd (cadmium) stress always alters the homeostasis of ROS (reactive oxygen species) including H2O2 (hydrogen sulfide) and [Formula: see text] (superoxide radical), leading to the oxidative injury and growth inhibition in plants. In addition to triggering oxidative injury, ROS has been suggested as important regulators modulating root elongation. However, whether and how Cd stress induces the inh...

Due to its anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive potential, Nitric oxide (NO), a gaseous radical, is of special importance during graft-versus-host diseases (GVHD) and feoto-maternal tolerance. NO is a major mediator of murine mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs)-immunosuppressive capacity. In this data article, we characterized NO production by human bone marrow-derived MSCs (hBMSCs). MSCs, isol...

Both the quality of the results of TEX s formula layout algorithm and the complexity of its description in the TEXbook are hard to beat The algorithm is verbally described as an imperative program with very complex control ow and complicated manipulations of the data structures representing formulae In a forthcoming textbook we describe TEX s formula layout algorithm as a functional program tra...

General Structural Characteristics Oxamicetin (I) is a basic antibiotic which crystallizes as a hydrochloride hydrate. Elemental analysis and titration data0 were consistent with a molecular formula of C29H42N6O10for the free base, indicating one additional oxygen atom compared to amicetin. Oxamicetin shows strong absorption in the ultraviolet region with, spectra at various pH values0 very sim...
