Abstract The ictal–interictal continuum (IIC) is a concept used for those particular EEG patterns that do not meet the strict criteria status epilepticus but may be associated with neuronal injury. aim of this article to review equivocal periodic and discuss their clinical significance along IIC. risk seizures increases when frequency discharges exceeds 2 Hz pattern has features superimposed rh...

The mammalian ER/cytosolic alpha-mannosidase (Man2C1p), yeast vacuolar alpha-mannosidase (Ams1p) and the Aspergillus nidulans alpha-mannosidase are members of Class IIC subgroup, which is involved in oligosaccharide catabolism and N-glycan processing. Unlike their mammalian counterparts, the yeast Ams1p and A. nidulans Class IIC alpha-mannosidase are not essential for morphogenesis and cellular...

Gonorrheal urethritis was induced in three males by intraurethral instillation of predominantly pilus+ protein II- gonococci. Virtually all gonococci reisolated from the infected men exhibited protein II+ phenotype. The reisolated gonococci expressed five distinct outer membrane protein II species. Protein IIc+ organisms predominated in urines of all three subjects, but variants expressing this...

Constitutively active promoter elements for heterologous protein production in Lactococcus lactis are scarce. Here, the promoter of the PTS-IIC gene cluster from L. lactis NZ3900 is described. This promoter was cloned upstream of an enhanced green fluorescent protein, GFPmut3a, and transformed into L. lactis. Transformants produced up to 13.5 μg of GFPmut3a per milliliter of log phase cells. Ad...

The fracture toughness of snow in shear is one of the most relevant parameters when studying the mechanics of snow slab avalanche release. Double-cantilever snow beams were loaded asymmetrically to determine K(IIc). If crack surfaces touch under applied pressure, the fracture toughness in shear of snow (rho=247 kg m(-3)) is K(IIc)=680+/-60 Pa m(1/2). Screening of the stress intensity at the cra...

Background and study aims  Visual assessment of laterally spreading tumors non-granular type (LST-NG) and depressed lesions by narrow band imaging (NBI) without magnification has not been studied. We investigated the role of non-magnifying NBI in detecting LST-NG and type IIc lesions on colonoscopy. Patients and methods  This retrospective study examined consecutive patients diagnosed as havi...

A muscle biopsy from the vastus lateralis muscle of a strength-trained woman was found to contain an unusual fiber type composition and was analyzed by histochemical, biochemical, and ultrastructural techniques. Special attention was given to the C-fibers, which comprised over 15% of the total fiber number in the biopsy. The mATPase activity of the C-fibers remained stable to varying degrees ov...

The mannitol transporter EII(mtl) from Escherichia coli is responsible for the uptake of mannitol over the inner membrane and its concomitant phosphorylation. EII(mtl) is functional as a dimer and its membrane-embedded C domain, IIC(mtl), harbors one high affinity mannitol binding site. To characterize this domain in more detail the microenvironments of thirteen residue positions were explored ...
