Boron-modified polysilylcarbodi-imides as precursors for Si–B–C–N ceramics: Synthesis, plastic-forming and high-temperature behavior
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 1998-10)
The synthesis, by two different reaction pathways, of boron-modified polysilylcarbodi-imides of general type {B[C 2 H 4 Si(R)NCN] 3 } n (R 14=singly bonded organic ligand) and the plastic-forming and the thermal behavior ...
cDNA and derived amino acid sequence of rabbit nasal cytochrome P450NMb (P450IIG1), a unique isozyme possibly involved in olfaction
(Elsevier, 1991-02-15)
Olfactory-specific cytochrome P450NMb was previously purified to electrophoretic homogeneity from microsomes of rabbit nasal mucosa in this laboratory. In the present study, a cDNA library made from poly(A)+ RNA from rabbit ...
Actin polymerization in cellular oxidant injury
(Elsevier, 1991-08-01)
Microfilaments undergo an ATP-dependent disruption into shortened bundles following cellular exposure to oxidants. This phenomenon does not require a net change in the amount of polymerized actin. However, increased amounts ...
Selective inhibition by alcohol and cortisol of natural killer cell activity of lymphocytes from cord blood
(Elsevier, 1994-12)
1. 1. The immunosuppressive effects of drugs such as alcohol or hormones such as cortisol may be age-related. To test this hypothesis, the authors investigated the in vitro effects of ethanol (EtOH) and cortisol on Natural ...
Thermodynamics of iron sulfides I. Heat capacity and thermodynamic properties of Fe9S10 at temperatures from 5 K to 740 K
(Elsevier, 1991-03)
Measurements of the heat capacity of Fe9S10 over the temperature range 5 K to 740 K reveal a first-order structural transition at 495 K and two higher-order transitions with maxima at 534 K and 591 K. The last two are of ...
Hormonal regulation of steroidogenic enzyme gene expression in Leydig cells
(Elsevier, 1992-12)
In normal mouse Leydig cells, steady state levels of mRNA of CYP11A, 3[beta]-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase [Delta]5- > [Delta]4-isomerase (3[beta]HSD), and CYP17 are differentially regulated. There is high basal expression ...
Poly(organophosphazene)s and the sol–gel technique
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 1999-05)
We report a survey of the utilization of phosphazene materials in combination with metal alkoxide precursors to form ceramics through the sol–gel technique. Silicon, titanium, zirconium and aluminum three-dimensional oxide ...
Pyrolytic conversion of precursors prepared in Ti(NMe 2 ) 4 –diamine systems
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 1998-10)
Precursors possessing Ti–N bonds were prepared by the reactions between Ti(NMe 2 ) 4 and each of three diamines H 2 NCH 2 CH 2 NH 2 , Me(H)NCH 2 CH 2 N(H)Me, HN(CH 2 CH 2 ) 2 NH (Ti(NMe 2 ) 4 :diamine 14= 141:2), and were ...
Immunohistochemical localization of the mu opioid receptors
(Elsevier, 1994-11-10)
Using antibodies generated to the C-terminal 63 amino acids of the cloned rat mu receptor, the present study examines the distribution of the mu receptor-like immunoreactivity (li) in perfused rat brain sections. Generally, ...
