Certain 2- chioroethyl nitrosoureas have been demonstrated
to be highly specific inactivators of chymotrypsin
in vitro and glutathione reductase, both in vivo and in
isolated rat hepatocytes. The inactivation of glutathione
reductase in isolated hepatocytes resulted in an increased
sensitivity toward an adriamycin induced oxidative
challenge.
Prolonged incubation of 1-(2-chloroethyl)-3-([1-¹⁴...
Recent interest in oxy-fuel combustion for carbon capture, as well as advancements in technologies such as magnetics, materials, and computational modeling has sparked renewed interest in magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) power generation. The increased temperatures of oxy-fuel combustion versus air-fuel combustion poses a challenge in the selection of materials for plasma exposed...
In two studies we tested the effect of vitamin B-6
(B-6) intake on in vitro lymphocyte, proliferation and IL-2
production in healthy young women. In Study I, 6 women were
fed a constant diet containing 0.84 mg (4.96 μmols) of B-6
for 12 d, and 1.24 mg (7.33 μmols) and...
Freshwater ecosystems in the mid- to
upper-latitudes of the northern hemisphere are particularly
vulnerable to the impact of climate change as
slight changes in air temperature can alter the form,
timing, and magnitude of precipitation and consequent
influence of snowmelt on streamflow dynamics. Here,
we examine the effects of hydro-climate,...

Superwarfarins are anticoagulant rodenticides that are 100 times more potent and 15 times more persistent than warfarin. They have been used since the 1980s and cause over 10,000 cases of accidental and intentional poisonings per year. Apart from inducing uncontrollable bleeding, by inhibiting the vitamin K cycle, superwarfarins can disrupt...
Coastal cutthroat trout is one of three cutthroat subspecies found in Oregon. The coastal subspecies, which is closely related to steelhead/rainbow trout and Pacific salmon, displays the most diverse and flexible life history of any of the Oregon salmonids. Coastal cutthroat can be found in streams and rivers from the...
This thesis discusses an approach whereby
Microsoft's MS OS/2 is provided with a means of running
the Department of Defense's Transmission Control
Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
This is done by developing a Packet Protocol Device
Driver. This device driver complies with the Packet
Driver Specification from FTP Software Inc. and with...
A foundation for the control of tumors is presented,
based upon the formulation of a realistic, knowledge-based
mathematical model of the interaction between tumor cells
and the immune system. The parametric control variables
relevant to the latest experimental data, e.g., the sigmoidal
dose-response relationship and Michaelis-Menten dynamics,
are also considered....
Two studies were conducted to determine the effect of varying vitamin B-6 (B- 6) status on lymphocyte mitogenic response and pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) concentration in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) in young women. In the first study, women were fed 1 mg/d for the first week and 1.5, 2.1 and...
