126 Baehr, WolfgangCloning and sequence analysis of the major outer membrane protein genes of two Chlamydia psittaci strainsWe cloned and sequenced the gene encoding the major outer membrane protein (MOMP) of two Chlamydia psittaci strains, guinea pig inclusion conjunctivitis (GPIC) strain 1, and meningopneumonitis (Mn) strain Cal-10. Intraspecies alignment of the two C. psittaci MOMP genes revealed 80.6% similarity, and...Base Sequence; Cloning, Molecular; Amino Acid Sequence1989
127 Capecchi, Mario R.Lessons from angiotensin-converting enzyme-deficient miceSince the first description of renin by Tigerstedt and Bergman [1] in 1898, many papers have described the biochemistry and physiological roles of the reninangiotensin system [2]. A critical component of this system is angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), a peptidase which cleaves the inactive pep...1996
128 Capecchi, Mario R.Lessons from angiotensin-converting enzyme-deficient mice.Mice which lack ACE have low systolic blood pressure, reduced male fertility and a renal abnormality characterized by medullary hypoplasia and the inability to concentrate urine. The diverse phenotypes caused by inactivation of a single gene emphasize the many functional roles of ACE and the renin-q...Blood Pressure; Cell Line;Fertility; Kidney; Testis1991-11-01
129 Tasdizen, TolgaPIMs and invariant parts for shape recognitionWe present completely new very powerful solutions t o two fundamental problems central to computer vision. 1. Given data sets representing C objects to be stored in a database, and given a new data set for an object, determine the object in the database that is most like the object measured. We so...1997
130 Loeb, Laurence D.Prestige and piety in the Iranian synagogueAmong Iranian Jews, long deprived of meaningful political power and afraid to conspicuously display material wealth, relative prestige became more valued that authority of opulence. The synagogue provides the traditional public forum where meaningful interaction among its members reinforces rand dif...Shirazi Jewish Socieity1978
131 Henderson, Thomas C.Reaction-diffusion patterns in smart sensor networksWe introduced the use of Turing?s reaction-diffusion pattern formation to support high-level tasks in smart sensor networks (S-Nets). This has led us to explore various biologically motivated mechanisms. In this paper we address some issues that arise in trying to get reliable, efficient patterns...Reaction-diffusion; Pattern formation; Smart sensor networks; S-Nets2003-11-05
132 Martin, JimTorso stabilization reduces the metabolic cost of producing cycling powerMany researchers have used cycling exercise to evaluate muscle metabolism. Inherent in such studies is an assumption that changes in whole-body respiration are due solely to respiration at the working muscle. Some researchers, however, have speculated that the metabolic cost of torso stabilization...Torso stabilization; Efficiency; Economy; Static contraction; Work2005
133 Farmer, Colleen G.Unidirectional pulmonary airflow patterns in the savannah monitor lizardThe unidirectional airflow patterns in the lungs of birds have long been considered a unique and specialized trait associated with the oxygen demands of flying, their endothermic metabolism1 and unusual pulmonary architecture2,3. However, the discovery of similar flow patterns in the lungs of crocod...2014-02-20
134 Seger, JonConditional relatedness, recombination, and the chromosome numbers of insectsIf two polymorphic loci are out of phase equilibrium, a homozygote at one of these loci is more highly related to its kin, at the other locus, than is an equivalent heterozygote. As a result, selection can favor (1) phenotypic responses to relative heterozygosity, and (2) increased recombination bet...Coefficients of relatedness; Conditional relatedness1983
135 Evans, DavidGraphical man/machine communications: December 1972The object of the graphical man/machine communication effort is the development of computers and computing techniques the people may use interactively in real time to extend their problem-solving capability, and to work cooperatively by means of improved communications via computer. This report summ...Waveform processing; Symbolic computation; Man/machine communications1972-12
136 McDaniel, SusanIntergenerational transfers, social solidarity, and social policy: unanswered questions and policy challengesLe transfert intergenerationnel constitue l'essence de la continuite societale et pourtant, il demeure mal conceptualise et analyse. Il se situe Egalement au centre du concept de l'etat sur le bien-etre quant a la redistribution des ressources et partant, des changements/defis actuels quant aux mes...Intergenerational transfers; Social solidarity; Social continuity; Redistribution1997
137 Kestle, John R. W.; MacDonald, Joel D.; Schmidt, Richard H.Marked reduction of cerebral vasospasm with lumbar drainage of cerebrospinal fluid after subarachnoid hemorrhageObject. Cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) continues to be a major source of morbidity in patients despite significant clinical and basic science research. Efforts to prevent vasospasm by removing spasmogens from the subarachnoid space have produced mixed results. The authors hyp...Cerebral vasospasm; Lumbar drainage2004
138 Miller, Jan D.Particle interactions in kaolinite suspensions and corresponding aggregate structuresThe surface charge densities of the silica face surface and the alumina face surface of kaolinite 13 particles, recently determined from surface force measurements using atomic force microscopy, 14 show a distinct dependence on the pH of the system. The silica face was found to be negatively 15 char...2011-01-01
139 Capecchi, Mario R.Absence of radius and ulna in mice lacking hoxa-11 and hoxd-11.Mice with targeted disruptions in Hox genes have been generated to evaluate the role of the Hox complex in determining the mammalian body plan. This complex of 38 genes encodes transcription factors that specify regional information along the embryonic axes. Early in vertebrate evolution an ancestra...Alleles; Animals; Bone and Bones; Carpal Bones2003-09-02
140 Schmidt, Meic H.Benzoporphyrin derivative and light-emitting diode for use in photodynamic therapy: applications of space light-emitting diode technologyPhotodynamic therapy (PDT) is a cancer treatment modality that recently has been applied as adjuvant therapy for rain tumors. PDT consists of intravenously injecting a photosensitizer, which preferentially accumulates in tumor ells, into a patient and then activating the photosensitizer with a light...Benzoporphyrin; Photodynamic therapy; Brain tumors; Photofrin1998
141 Hannon, James C.Determination of step rate thresholds corresponding to physical activity intensity classifications in adultsBackground: Current recommendations call for adults to be physically active at moderate and/or vigorous intensities. Given the popularity of walking and running, the use of step rates may provide a practical and inexpensive means to evaluate ambulatory intensity. Thus, the purpose of this study wa...2011
