Neutrophils roll on P-selectin expressed by activated platelets or endothelial cells under the shear stresses in the microcirculation. P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) is a high affinity ligand for P-selectin on myeloid cells. However, it has not been demonstrated that PSGL-1 contributes to the rolling of neutrophils on P-selectin. We developed two IgG mAbs, PL1 and PL2, that appear to...

(2.1) F = C+C0 + C If A, B are two aggregates of elements of F we shall denote by AB the aggregate formed by adding each element of A to every element of B. We shall also denote the aggregate obtained by taking A a times by a A. Then we have the following Lemma 1.

Sixty days feeding experiment was conducted on grass carp fry fed isocaloric diets with variable protein levels in order to evaluate its growth response. Different diet ingredients were analyzed for % age protein, % age fat, % age ash, % fiber, % age moisture contents and energy. Five isoenergetic (17.91 ± 0.02 Kg MJ ) and isolipidic (8.56 ± 0.09 g) diets with varying protein levels PL1 (20%), ...

It is believed by the scientific community that PL1 and PL2 are the largest concept languages for which there exists a polynomial algorithm that solves the subsumption problem. This is due to Donini, Lenzerini, Nardi, and Nutt, who have presented two tractable algorithms that are intended to solve the subsumption problem in those languages. In contrast, this paper proves that the algorithm for ...
