We propose the decay modes B → a0(→ ηπ)π to determine the CKM phase α. One can analyze these modes through (i) the B → a0π isospin pentagon, (ii) the time dependent Dalitz plot of B0(t) → a±0 π → ηπ+π−, and (iii) the time dependence of B0(t) → a0(→ ηπ0)π0. We show that the a0π modes have certain advantages as compared to the ρπ modes, and strongly recommend the time dependent Dalitz plot analys...

Carboplatin, [Pt(NH3)2(CBDCA-O,O')], 1, where CBDCA is cyclobutane-1,1-dicarboxylate, is used against ovarian, lung, and other types of cancer. We recently showed (Di Pasqua et al. (2006) Chem. Res. Toxicol. 19, 139-149) that carboplatin reacts with carbonate under conditions that simulate therapy to produce carbonato carboplatin, cis-[Pt(NH3)2(O-CBDCA)(CO3)]2-, 2. We use 13C and 1H NMR and UV-...

OBJECTIVE To determine whether tissue angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) is increased in synovia from patients with rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis or chondromalacia patellae. METHODS Sections of synovia from patients with rheumatoid arthritis (n = 7), osteoarthritis (n = 7) or chondromalacia patellae (n = 6) were tested for immunoreactivity for ACE, and for binding of the ACE inhibitor...

BACKGROUND Histiocytic sarcoma (HS) is a rare malignant tumor. Underlying or associated disorders have been reported in some patients with HS. We herein report a very rare case of HS combined with acute monocytic leukemia (AMoL). CASE PRESENTATION A 62-year-old man presented with systemic lymph node enlargement and pancytopenia in August 2012. Bone marrow (BM) aspirate showed abnormal hematop...

Title of Thesis: TERPS: THE EMBEDDED RELIABLE PROCESSING SYSTEM Amol Vishwas Gole, Master of Science, 2003 Thesis directed by: Professor Bruce L. Jacob Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) can have an adverse effect on commercial electronics. As feature sizes of integrated circuits become smaller, their susceptibility to EMI increases. In light of...

Saeed Baghery was born in Amol/Mazandaran (Iran) in 1985. He completed his B.Sc. in Pure chemistry in 2009 from Islamic Azad University of Amol, Mazandaran, Iran. He was graduated from M.Sc. degree under the supervision of Dr. Seyed Mohammad Vahdat in Organic Chemistry from Islamic Azad University of Amol, Mazandaran, Iran. He is currently Organic Chemistry Ph.D student under the supervision of...

A new type of IMAC material, with ATP as the chelating ligand, was synthesized and applied to capture phosphopeptides. For the first time, the approach for phosphopeptide enrichment could provide selectivity under 5000-fold dilution by nonphosphopeptides, and sensitivity of on-target enrichment at 3 amol.

To study the effect of nonesterified fatty acids (NEFAs) on uncoupling protein-2 (UCP-2) and uncoupling protein-3 (UCP-3) gene expression, a triglyceride emulsion was infused for 5 h in 14 healthy volunteers. A euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp was administered concomitantly in 7 of the 14 subjects. The mRNA levels of UCP-2 and of the short (UCP-3S) and long (UCP-3L) isoforms of UCP-3 were quan...
