Lithium (Li), a glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) inhibitor, has used to attenuate thecannabinoid-induced dependence/withdrawal signs, but molecular mechanisms related to this areunclear. Recent studies indicate the involvement of upstream extracellular signal kinase1/2 (ERK1/2)and downstream GSK-3β pathways in the development of cannabinoid-induced dependence. Thisis mediated through cannab...

This paper describes a new admissible tree search algorithm called Iterative Threshold Search (ITS). ITS can be viewed as a much-simplified version of MA* [l], and a generalized version of MREC [12]. We also present the following results: 1. Every node generated by ITS is also generated by IDA*, even if ITS is given no more memory than IDA*. In addition, there are trees on which ITS generates O...

The study focuses on the benefit of foreign direct investment (FDI) at the firm level. Looking into the way businesses acquire institutional knowledge, the study examines whether IJVs have built local technological capability through acquiring and then using the international resources and knowledge of the foreign joint venture partners, and if so, the level of the technological capability that...

Vaccination with dendritic cells (DCs) as professional antigen presenting cells generated from autologous leukemic blasts might elicit anti-leukemic T cell responses in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). To test this hypothesis, autologous AML-DC were generated under good manu-facturing practice (GMP) conditions and injected s.c. into five AML patients up to four times at a biweekly in...

RSA is one of the well-known public key cryptography algorithms (asymmetric encryption cryptosystem) , it has been more than 40 years since was put forward. There are countless literatures on related issues; hot discussion and popularization in academic industrial circles, typical cryptosystems. The reliability algorithm mainly depends factorization large integers mentioned principle because ex...

Pristine and substituted spinels, Li(M1/6Mn11/6)O4 (M ~ Co1/6, Co1/12Al1/12) were prepared and their cathodic performance up to 80 cycles at ambient temperature and at 50 uC and the Li ion kinetic parameters obtained by galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT) at ambient temperature and 50 uC and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) at ambient temperature up to 80 cycles we...

Molten mixtures of lithium chloride and metallic lithium are of significant interest in various metal oxide reduction processes. These solutions have been reported to exhibit seemingly anomalous physical characteristics that lack a comprehensive explanation. In the current work, the physical chemistry of molten solutions of lithium chloride and metallic lithium, with and without lithium oxide, ...

Seven new species of the genus Lobrathium Mulsant & Rey from China are described and illustrated: Lobrathium anatinum Li & Li, sp. n. (Guangxi), Lobrathium diaoluoense Li & Li, sp. n. (Hainan), Lobrathium dufui Li & Li, sp. n. (Hubei), Lobrathium lirunyui Li & Li, sp. n. (Guizhou), Lobrathium pengi Li & Li, sp. n. (Guangxi), Lobrathium quyuani Li & Li, sp. n. (Hubei) and Lobrathium uncinatum Li...
