Let $D$ be an integral domain and $star$ a semistar operation stable and of finite type on it. We define the semistar dimension (inequality) formula and discover their relations with $star$-universally catenarian domains and $star$-stably strong S-domains. As an application, we give new characterizations of $star$-quasi-Pr"{u}fer domains and UM$t$ domains in terms of dimension inequal...

Defective variants of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) protease (HIV PR) have been engineered to inhibit wild-type (wt) HIV PR activity. These variants were designed to promote the formation of heterodimers and to destabilize the formation of inactive variant homodimers of HIV-1 protease through substitutions at Asp-25, Ile-49, and Gly-50 (Babé, L. M., Rosé, J., and Craik, C. S. (199...

Exposés quotidiennement à des situations traumatiques, les primo-intervenants doivent affronter, au fil interventions, décès brutaux, accidents de la voie publique, souffrance psychique et physique, violences urbaines familiales, précarité, etc. Ces présentent toutes le risque d’être génératrices d’un stress important aussi bien pour...

2. C (H, E, B) is a function of the values Pr (X | B) and Pr (Y | Z ∩B) assume on the at most 16 truth-functional combinations X, Y, Z of E and H . 3a. If Pr (E | H ∩B) < Pr (F | H ∩B) and Pr (E | B) = Pr (F | B), then C (H, E, B) ≤ C (H, F, B). 3b. If Pr (E | H ∩B) = Pr (F | H ∩B) and Pr (E | B) < Pr (F | B), then C (H, E, B) ≥ C (H, F, B). 4a. C (H, E ∩ F, B)−C (H, E ∩G, B) is determined by C...

In Arabidopsis, NPR1 mediates the salicylic acid (SA)-induced expression of pathogenesis-related (PR) genes and systemic acquired resistance (SAR). Here, we report the identification of another component, CPR 6, that may function with NPR1 in regulating PR gene expression. The dominant CPR 6-1 mutant expresses the SA/NPR1-regulated PR genes (PR-1, BGL 2, and PR-5) and displays enhanced resistan...

PR-39 is a multifunctional neutrophil peptide involved in host defense and inflammation. To investigate the involvement of PR-39 in a Salmonella choleraesuis infection, a PR-39 enzyme immunoassay was developed. The concentrations of PR-39 in serum were 13.6 +/- 1.9 ng/ml before challenge and increased (P < 0.01) threefold by 10 to 14 days postinfection. Peripheral blood neutrophil counts parall...

Progesterone receptors (PR) are the strongest predictors of response to hormone therapy in metastatic breast cancer, while PR and the DNA indices of cell ploidy and percentage of S phase are useful prognostic indicators in early stage breast cancer. We have developed a flow cytometry method to measure PR and DNA indices simultaneously using two aneuploid breast cancer cell lines--PR-positive T4...

It has been noticed that all the known binary sequences having the asymptotic merit factor ≥ 6 are the modifications to the real primitive characters. In this paper, we give a new modification of the character sequences at length N = p1p2 . . . pr, where pi’s are distinct odd primes and r is finite. Based on these new modifications, for N = p1p2 . . . pr with pi’s distinct odd primes, we can co...
