We consider a family of fractional Brownian fields {BH}H?(0,1) on Rd, where H denotes their Hurst parameter. first define rich class normalizing kernels ? and we rescale the normalised field by square-root gamma function ?(H), such that covariance XH(x)=?(H)12(BH(x)??RdBH(u)?(u,x)du), converges to log-correlated Gaussian when H?0. then use Berestycki’s “good points” approach (Electron. Commun. ...

As a result of a program to find antitumor compounds of endophytes from medicinal Asteraceae, the steroid (22E,24R)-8,14-epoxyergosta-4,22-diene-3,6-dione (a) and the diterpene aphidicolin (b) were isolated from the filamentous fungi Papulaspora immersa and Nigrospora sphaerica, respectively, and exhibited strong cytotoxicity against HL-60 cells. A proteomic approach was used in an attempt to i...

After thoroughly and seriously studying, analysing and considering the basic matters confronted by the people, nation, and state, and additionally by using its authority based on Article 37 of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia, the MPR amends and/or adds Article 1 Paragraph (2) and (3); Article 3 Paragraph (1), (3), and (4); Article 6 Paragraph (1) and (2); Article 6A Paragraph...

Bile salts such as cholate are steroid compounds occurring ubiquitously in the environment through excretion by animals. Cholate degradation by Pseudomonas sp. strain Choll is initiated by A ring oxidation and ~ oxidation of the acyl side chain. A transposon mutant of strain Choll was isolated that could not grow with cholate, but transformed it into several steroid compounds accumulating in cu...

Vitamin D receptor (VDR) is a member of the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily. When bound to a variety of vitamin D analogues, VDR manifests a wide diversity of physiological actions. The molecular mechanism by which different vitamin D analogues cause specific responses is not understood. The published crystallographic structures of the ligand binding domain of VDR (VDR-LBD) complexed with ...

This study investigates the effects of climate change on streamflow in Ayazma river basin located Marmara region Turkey using a hydrological model. Regional Climate Model (RCM) outputs from CNRM-CM5/RCA4, EC-EARTH/RACMO22E and NorESM1-M/HIRHAM5 with RCP4.5 RCP8.5 emission scenarios were utilized to drive HBV-Light (Hydrologiska Byråns Vattenbalansavdelning) A trend analysis was performed Mann–K...

Amaranthus spinosus Linn. (Family: Amaranthaceae) has been shown to be useful in preventing and mitigating adverse pathophysiological conditions and complex diseases. However, only limited information is available on the anticancer potential of this plant. In this study, we examined the antiproliferative and pro-apoptotic effects of a novel fatty acid isolated from A. spinosus-(14E,18E,22E,26E)...
