Myotonia is a symptom of various genetic and acquired skeletal muscular disorders and is characterized by hyperexcitability of the sarcolemma. Here, we have performed a comparative proteomic study of the genetic mouse models ADR, MTO and MTO*5J of human congenital myotonia in order to determine myotonia-specific changes in the global protein complement of gastrocnemius muscle. Proteomic analyse...

OBJECTIVE Leverage an experimental study to determine whether gender or recent crime victimization modify the mental health effects of moving to low-poverty neighborhoods. METHODS The Moving to Opportunity (MTO) study randomized low-income families in public housing to an intervention arm receiving vouchers to subsidize rental housing in lower-poverty neighborhoods or to controls receiving no...

This study re-analyzed data on adolescent health outcomes (N = 1780; M age = 15.15, SD = 2.30) from a 5-year evaluation of the Moving to Opportunity (MTO) Program. The MTO program is a randomized experiment conducted in five cities in the United States (Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles and New York) in which low-income families living in public housing in 'high-poverty' neighborhoods wer...

A convenient and efficient application of heterogeneous methylrhenium trioxide (MTO) systems for the selective oxidation of lignin model compounds and lignins is reported. Environmental friendly and low-cost H2O2 was used as the oxygen atom donor. Overall, the data presented and discussed in this paper point toward the conclusion that the immobilized heterogeneous catalytic systems based on H2O...

As a significant reaction in heterogeneous catalysis, methanol-to-hydrocarbon (MTH) conversion supplies sustainable way for the production of important platform chemicals, e.g., olefins, gasoline and aromatics. Although many commercial MTO plants have already been operated China recently, catalytic efficiency, i.e., olefins selectivity catalyst lifetime still need to be improved. Consequently, ...

A series of catalysts based on hybrid intergrowth structure zeolites MFI-MEL, MFI-MTW, and MFI-MCM-41 are studied in the reaction olefins synthesis from dimethyl ether at atmospheric pressure a temperature 340 °C. The total acidity zeolite-based is shown to correlate with their activity. However, use zeolite MFI-MCM-41, which characterized by high content medium acid sites, additionally catalyz...

The only licensed vaccine Mycobacterium bovis Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) cannot prevent the prevalence of tuberculosis (TB), which remains a major public health problem worldwide. A more effective TB vaccine than BCG is urgently needed. Subunit vaccine is a promising strategy, and suitable adjuvants will benefit the development of effective TB subunit vaccines. MTO, consisting of monophosph...

he U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) Moving to Opportunity for Fair Housing Demonstration, or MTO, is a large, federally funded social experiment designed to test whether improved neighborhood opportunities may significantly affect the life chances of lowincome public housing residents. This paper provides the first systematic overview of the design of the MTO and describ...

Operando UV/Vis spectroscopy with on-line mass spectrometry was used to study the effect of different types of impurities on the hydrocarbon pool species and the activity of H-SAPO-34 as a methanol-to-olefins (MTO) catalyst. Successive reaction cycles with different purity feedstocks were studied, with an intermittent regeneration step. The combined study of two distinct impurity types (i.e., f...
