Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common malignant primary brain cancer. With a median survival of about a year, new approaches to treating this disease are necessary. To identify signaling molecules regulating GBM progression in a genetically engineered murine model of proneural GBM, we quantified phosphotyrosine-mediated signaling using mass spectrometry. Oncogenic signals, including phosphoryla...

Most solar collectors in Nigeria are mounted without consideration of optimum tilt angle for maximum radiation. To address the gap, a flat plate surface collector area 0.15 m2, hinged on horizontal support quick adjustment inclination between 0 to 90o was fabricated marked out at 1o intervals telescopic leg graduated degrees. Measurement radiation varying degrees taken 12:00 noon and 2.00 pm 4 ...

This survey was conducted in Al-Kalakla Fishery (KF) and Jabel Awlia Dam Fishery (JADF) in the White Nile River, Khartoum state to identify the selective and non-selective fishing gear. The results showed the selective fishing gear represented by gill-nets and seine nets (beach nets) in both fisheries with clear variation in use. In KF, fixed nets were dominant (56%) in fishing and followed by ...

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common malignant form of brain cancer. Even with treatment including surgery, radiation, and temozolomide chemotherapy, the 1 year survival rate is only 35%. To identify specific mediators of GBM progression in a genetically engineered murine model of proneural GBM, we quantified signaling networks using mass spectrometry. We identified oncogenic signaling associa...

Sequential diblock copolymers composed of G and D-lactic acid residues were synthesized through a living ring-opening polymerization of t and D-lactide initiated by aluminium tris(2-propanolate). The composition of the block copolymers was varied by changing the reaction conditions and monomer over initiator ratio and confi ied by 'H NMR analysis, molecular weight determination and optical rota...

The proventriculus morphology of the cricket G/y//us assimilis Fabricius, 1775 is described using scanning electron microscopy and the con'elation ofthis structure with the feeding habits briefly considered.

We compared housing and the eating habits of Roma. Contemporary findings (2013) were compared with those from the first monothematic work on Roma (1775), which depicts their housing and eating habits, especially regarding the differences between social classes. Data were obtained from a journal (1775) and from semi-structured interviews (2013) with more than 70 Roma women and men who live in se...

MJM: Please describe how your divide you practice on a week-to-week basis. Dr. Saba: I work about one week a month doing hospitalization at the Lachine Hospital in Montreal. I do another week of mixed hospitalization, either with intensive care or without intensive care. I do about two weeks a month altogether in practice at my clinic; I try to be in my office at least three weeks out of four, ...
