Kluth et al. identify a significant enrichment of cilia-annotated genes that are differentially expressed in pancreatic islets of obese mice. Many of the genes were also linked to human T2D, suggesting that dysregulation of cilia-associated genes may participate in T2D risk.
Few could have foreseen the consequences when the British Parliament, in 1807, passed the Slave Trade Act that sought to abolish slave imports into the British Empire. From population decreases in the British Caribbean to increased prices in the Cape Colony, historical evidence suggests that the effects of the Act were felt far and wide even though commercialization of slaves was still possible wi
An experimental test system including the oil circulation system and the gas circuit system has been designed and built to explore the effects of the lubricating oil flow rate on the performance of a single-screw compressor, used in a portable natural gas liquefaction process. Outlet pressure, outlet volumetric flow rate, volumetric efficiency, and specific power rate are the parameters for evalua
This book provides the first comprehensive discussion of conflicts between legal bases in EU law. It fills an important gap in the existing literature on the choice of legal basis in EU law by analysing the structure of legal bases and the resulting legal basis litigation in the European Union, thus identifying areas of conflict produced by overlapping competences, divergent inter-institutional in
The article is a description and evaluation of extensive and intensive field survey as a means of locating sites from the bronze and early iron ages in the cultivated landscape of southern Sweden. It includes a discussion of other field survey efforts and recommendations about survey technique. Surface survey in December proved to be a fairly successful means of locating bronze age remains in clay
Systematic variational calculations using the multi-configuration Hartree-Fock method for Li are reported. For 1 s 2 2 s 2 S of Li, an nl -expansion is attempted in configuration space, similar to a partial wave expansion for helium-like systems. The total energy, ionization energy, specific mass shift, and hyperfine contact term are calculated with respect to increasing size of the configuration
Popular Abstract in Swedish Inom jonstråleanalysen används en partikelstråle, vanligtvis av protoner eller alfapartiklar, med hög energi för undersökning av prov. Då dessa partiklar skjuts in i provet sker kollisioner, reaktioner eller annan form av växelverkan med elektroner och kärnor i provets inre. En del av dessa processer ger upphov till högenergetisk strålning som kan studeras med lämpliga In nuclear microprobe experiments, high resolution maps of the measured parameter, e.g. element- or mass distribution, in a sample can be produced with a variety of ion beam analytical techniques. The principle underlying all the techniques is that ions at MeV energies are used as projectiles to cause interactions with the target material. Because of the limited range of ions in matter, there is a
We mapped the genetic influences for type 1 diabetes (T1D), using 2,360 single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers in the 4.4-Mb human major histocompatibility complex (MHC) locus and the adjacent 493 kb centromeric to the MHC, initially in a survey of 363 Swedish T1D cases and controls. We confirmed prior studies showing association with T1D in the MHC, most significantly near HLA-DR/DQ. In the
Using two epochs of observations with HST/WFPC2 we obtain the stellar proper motions for all stars in the field. The proper motion are used to separate the bulge from the cluster stars. The stellar sequences in the resulting colour-magnitude diagram (CMD) are better defined than in any previously published CMD. Using a-enhanced stellar isochrones we find NGC 6528 to have a probable age of 11 +/- 2
The electron structure of several highly charged ions, belonging to the Mg, Ne, Mn, Fe, Co, Ga and Ge isoelectronic sequences, has been experimentally studied by means of two techniques, beam-foil spectroscopy, BFS, and the spectroscopy of laser-produced plasmas, LPP. The investigations were carried out at Lund University, LU, in 1989-90 and at the China Institute of Atomic Energy, CIAE, Beijing,
AIM: The purpose of the present study was to investigate the radiosensitivity of the prostate cancer cell lines LNCaP, DU145, and PC3 when irradiated with beta particles emitted from (177)Lu, and to compare the effect with irradiation using alpha particles or gamma rays.MATERIALS AND METHODS: Cells were irradiated with beta particles emitted from (177)Lu, alpha particles from (241)Am, or gamma ray
This study investigates the effects of Age of Onset of Acquisition (AOA) and the quality and quantity of input on the longitudinal development of gender in the acquisition of French by simultaneous (2L1) and successive bilingual children (cL2). There's an on-going debate regarding the main factors underlying linguistic development in bilingual children. Two independent variables, AOA and input, ha
Introduction: Acute kidney injury (AKI) after cardiac surgery is common and results in increased morbidity and mortality. One possible mechanism for AKI is ischaemia-reperfusion injury caused by the extracorporeal circulation (ECC), resulting in an opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) in the kidneys, which can lead to cell injury or cell death. Ciclosporin may block the
Metal ion catalyzed autoxidation of of aqueous sulfur dioxide in atmospheric droplets is an important pathway for the total oxidation of sulfur dioxide in the atmosphere and for formation of acid rain. This paper presents a summary of the results obtained for the Mn(II/III) catalyzed oxidation of SO2(aq).
The BRAHMS collaboration has measured transverse momentum spectra of pions, kaons, protons, and antiprotons at rapidities 0 and 3 for Cu+Cu collisions at sNN=200 GeV. As the collisions become more central the collective radial flow increases while the temperature of kinetic freeze-out decreases. The temperature is lower and the radial flow weaker at forward rapidity. Pion and kaon yields with tran
Microscreening (using Discfilters) is a widely used technology for suspended solids removal in tertiary effluent streams of wastewater treatment plants. Several pilot studies have shown the feasibility of using coagulation and flocculation in combination with microscreens for advanced phosphorus removal, but the number of fullscale references is still limited. In summer 2014, the first Scandinavia
