Localization of the Gene for ATP Citrate Lyase (ACLY) Distal to Gastrin (GAS) and Proximal to D17S856 on Chromosome 17q12-q21
(Elsevier, 1994-05-15)
The gene encoding ATP-citrate lyase, designated ACLY, was mapped to human chromosome 17q12-q21 by PCR on a panel of human/rodent somatic cell hybrids and localized to 17q21.1 by PCH on a panel of radiation hybrids. The ...
Estimation for paired binomial data with application to radiation therapy
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2001-11-30)
We compare and contrast several different methods for estimating the effect of treatment when responses are paired binomial observations. The ratio of binomial probabilities is the parameter of interest, while the binomial ...
Optimal estimators for ambient air quality levels
(Elsevier, 1992)
Procedures to estimate missing data, determine extrema, and derive uncertainties for data collected in ambient air monitoring networks are presented. The optimal linear estimators used obtain unbiased, minimum variance ...
Tonofilament protein, a keratin from rat epidermis
(Elsevier, 1981-11-16)
Tonofilament protein from newborn rat epidermis was found to be antigenically related to mouse keratins. Tonofilament protein, like keratins, could be extracted with 8 M urea in Tris buffer. The yield was enhanced by the ...
A rapid screening method for the detection of viable spores in powder using bioluminescence
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2004-07)
A rapid diagnosis of a biological threat in a powder sample is important for first responders who have to make decisions on-site. The present culture-based method does not provide timely results, which is a critical barrier ...
Generalizing the TITE-CRM to adapt for early- and late-onset toxicities
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2005)
Due to the staggered entry of subjects in phase I trials, some subjects will only be partially through the study when others are ready to be enrolled. Nonetheless, many phase I designs focus solely upon whether or not ...
Heat shock factor 1-deficient mice exhibit decreased recovery of hearing following noise overstimulation
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2005-08-15)
Heat shock proteins (Hsps) can enhance cell survival in response to stress. Heat shock factor 1 (Hsf1) is the major transcription factor that regulates stress-inducible Hsp expression. We previously demonstrated the ...
Inner hair cell responses to the velocity of basilar membrane motion in the guinea pig
(Elsevier, 1981-04-27)
Triangular wave acoustic stimulation at 200 Hz produced the expected square wave cochlear microphonic at the round window membrane and within the scala media. Intracellular recordings from inner hair cells (IHC) of the ...
Modelling tumour biology–progression relationships in screening trials
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2005)
There has been some recent work in the statistical literature for modelling the relationship between tumour biology properties and tumour progression in screening trials. While non-parametric methods have been proposed for ...
