The anomalous sorptive behaviour of Zsm-5 and silicalite-I: Observation of low-pressure hysteresis in nitrogen adsorption
(2002)A first stage of a systematic study of the nature of the low-pressure hysteresis loop observed in the nitrogen adsorption isotherms of some MFI zeolites is presented. It was shown that the pressure at which occurrence of ...

Application of topoisomerase assays in the evaluation of natural products as antitumor agents
(1999)Initially, DNA topoisomerase (topo) inhibitors found clinical applications as antibiotics and cancer chemotherapeutic agents. Recently, we demonstrated that plant flavonoids that inhibit mammalian topo I or topo II might ...

C3 glomerulonephritis/CFHR5 nephropathy is an endemic disease in cyprus: Clinical and molecular findings in 21 families
(2013)Microscopic haematuria is the presenting symptom of several conditions, either heritable or acquired. A well-recognized familial condition is Alport syndrome, either of X-linked or autosomal recessive inheritance, as well ...

Can we use area per surfactant as a quantitative test model of specific ion effects?
(2004)The three main currently proposed approaches for understanding specific ion effects are briefly described. In some experimentally well defined and simplified situations, one can decouple ion specificity effects from all ...

Charge generation in inorganic/organic photovoltaic blends
(2004)We apply ultrafast spectroscopy to investigate charge generation kinetics in blends of semiconducting polymers and cadmium selenide nanocrystals with photovoltaic applications. The rate is limited by diffusion of the primary ...

Cross-talk among epigenetic modifications: Lessons from histone arginine methylation
(2013)Epigenetic modifications, including those occurring on DNA and on histone proteins, control gene expression by establishing and maintaining different chromatin states. In recent years, it has become apparent that epigenetic ...

Crosslink nature in Cr(III)-polyacrylamide gels
(2001)The equilibrium constants of various candidates for the crosslinking reaction between chromium(III) and partly hydrolysed polyacrylamide have been calculated. For this purpose use has been made of a) the crosslinking index ...

Dietary Soy Isoflavones and Estrone Protect Ovariectomized ERαKO and Wild-Type Mice from Carcinogen-Induced Colon Cancer
(2004)Consumption of soy foods has been weakly associated with reduced colon cancer risk. Colon cancer risk is influenced by estrogen exposure, although the mechanism through which this occurs is not defined. Conversion of ...

The effect of physicochemical parameters on the separation recovery of plutonium and uranium from aqueous solutions by cation exchange
(2010)The effect of physicochemical parameters such as pH, salinity (e.g. [NaCl]) and competitive cation (e.g. Ca 2+ and Fe 3+) concentration on the separation recovery of plutonium and uranium from aqueous solutions by cation ...

Genistein as an Inducer of Tumor Cell Differentiation: Possible Mechanisms of Action
(1995)Decreased activity of either topoisomerases or tyrosine kinases has been implicated in the differentiation of a number of cell types. It is therefore conceivable that genistein, because of its reported ability to inhibit ...

Genistein induces maturation of cultured human breast cancer cells and prevents tumor growth in nude mice
(1998)Results of recent studies in animal models of mammary carcinogenesis showed that the soybean isoflavone genistein is a chemopreventive agent. The objective of the present study was to determine whether soybean isoflavones ...

Interactions of hydroxycarbamide (Hydroxyurea) with Iron and copper: Implications on toxicity and therapeutic strategies
(2011)Presented at the 19th International Conference on Chelation, London, UK, 13-16 November 2009Preliminary spectrophotometric and potentiometric studies have shown that hydroxycarbamide or hydroxyurea (HU) can interact with ...

Investigation on uranyl interaction with bioactive ligands. Synthesis and structural studies of the uranyl complexes with glycine and N-(2-mercaptopropionyl)glycine
(2002)Three new uranium(VI) compounds have been prepared with glycine (Hgly), N-(2-mercaptopropionyl)glycine (Hmpg) and 2,2′-dithiobis(N-propionylglycine) (tpg). The crystal structure of [UO2(Hgly)2Cl2] has been solved, revealing ...

Investigations on the surface properties of pure and alkali or alkaline earth metal doped ceria
(2000)The effect of parameters, such as initial cerium concentration and alkali or alkaline earth concentration in the reactant solution on the properties of precipitated ceria, have been investigated by nitrogen adsorption ...

Learning optimisation by high firing irregularity
(2012)In a network of leaky integrate-and-fire (LIF) neurons, we investigate the functional role of irregular spiking at high rates. Irregular spiking is produced by either employing the partial somatic reset mechanism on every ...
