The anticancer effects of the different analogs of cysteine deleted tachyplesin on A549 lung cancer cells
… shown that cysteine-deleted tachyplesin (CDT) and its many analogs display antibacterial effects. However, little has been said about its possible anticancer effects and which analogs serve as the best inhibitors of the growing cancer cells. This research focused on CDT and four of its …

Decision and Dependence: A Defence of Causal Decision Theory
For several decades, causal decision theory (CDT) has been the orthodox version of philosophical decision theory. However, ever since CDT was first developed there have been those who have disputed the adequacy of this theory. Then, in the last decade and a half, opposition to this theory has …

Integrating digitizing pen technology and machine learning with the Clock Drawing Test
The Clock Drawing Test (CDT) is a medical test for neurodegenerative diseases that has been proven to have high diagnostic value due to its ease of administration and accurate results. In order to standardize the administration process and utilize the most current machine learning tools for …

Microbiology of periodontal disease in Singapore and the discovery of a bacterial intron in Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans
… determined. Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans cdt; Porphyromonas gingivalis prtC and Tannerella forsythensis (Bacteroides forsythus) prtH genotypes correlated well with the periodontal status of the local population. A. actinomycetemcomitans possesses the cytolethal-distending toxin (CDT). The …

Cellular interactions of the cytolethal distending toxins
… to reach nucleus. Cytolethal Distending Toxin (CDT), the first known bacterial toxin to reach the mammalian-cell nucleus, presents an excellent model to study the retrograde trafficking of cargo to the nucleus. CDTs comprise a family of intracellular acting bacterial toxins whose actions upon …

The Long-Term Effects of Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) Combined with Complex Decongestive Therapy (CDT) in the Treatment of Breast Cancer Lymphedema: A Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Study
<p>Complex Decongestive Therapy (CDT), the gold standard for lymphedema treatment, fails to demonstrate long-term efficacy. The purpose of this study was to determine the long-term efficacy of low level laser therapy (LLLT) in reducing post-mastectomy lymphedema when used with CDT. The experimental …

Engineering yeast strains for producing fuels and value-added chemicals from cellulosic biomass
… genes coding for cellodextrin transporter (cdt-1) and β-glucosidase (gh1-1) were integrated into the genome of the yeast, and the expression cassettes were massively amplified through laboratory evolution, resulting in significantly improved cellobiose fermentation. Besides ethanol …

The effects of the expression levels of cellobiose transporter and β-Glucosidase on ethanol fermentation
… of expression level of cellobiose transporter (CDT) and β-glucosidase (β-GL), in this study the copy number variation of plasmids is used to assess contributions by CDT and β-GL on cellobiose fermentation. Four different transformants contain different combinations of copy numbers in CDT and …

The Application of Critical Discourse Theory: A Criterion-Referenced Analysis of Reports Relating to Language Revitalisation in Australia and New Zealand
… underpinned by critical discourse theory (CDT) if it is to be of genuine use to those involved in language revitalisation efforts, particularly to grass roots language activists. Following an introductory chapter which provides a background to the research and a rationale for it (Chapter …

Metabolic engineering of yeast strains for renewable biomass utilization and valuable chemical production
… Neurospora crassa cellodextrin transporters (CDT-1 and CDT-2) and β-glucosidase (BGL) or cellobiose phosphorylase (CBP) to breakdown cellobiose into hexose units. In various cellobiose fermentation conditions, the strains expressing CDT-1 showed efficient fermentation compared to the strains …

An investigation into the communication exchange between small business client and graphic designer.
… SME sector, a graphic design communication tool (CDT) was developed and evaluated with the help of four professional graphic designers. The CDT consists of a detailed questionnaire conducted with key stakeholders, developed through a formalised process of analysis, including the author as action …

Genomische Unterschiede zwischen Shiga Toxin-Produzierenden Escherichia coli (STEC) O157:H7 und Sorbitol Fermentierenden (SF) STEC O157:H- -Stämmen
… die Gene für das ?Cytolethal Distending Toxin? (CDT) detektiert. Diese weisen die größte Ähnlichkeit zu cdt-III des E. coli O15:H21-Stammes S5 auf, welche dort auf einem Plasmid kodiert vorliegen. Im Gegensatz dazu sprechen die flankierenden Sequenzen von cdt in E. coli 493/89 für ein Gen, das …

Modification of Driver Behavior Based on Information from Pedestrian Countdown Timers
Pedestrian countdown timers (CDTs) are promoted as a means of improving pedestrian safety at intersections. However, there are concerns that drivers view the CDTs when approaching the intersection and use that information to drive more aggressively - an unintended consequence that is detrimental to …

Functional Evolution of Solute-Binding Proteins
… of the enzyme cyclohexadienyl dehydratase (CDT) from a non-catalytic ancestor that belonged to the SBP superfamily. The evolution of binding specificity in the AABP family was explored by reconstruction and functional characterisation of ancestral AABPs that predated the divergence of modern …

Entropy-based machine learning algorithms applied to genomics and pattern recognition
… application of Convolutional Decision Trees (CDT) and demonstrate that this approach has distinct advantages over the BDT modeil while still accurately predicting the binding specificty of TFs. The CDT models are trained using the Cross Entropy (CE) optimization method, a Monte Carlo …

Design of on-chip monitoring circuits for clock delay and temperature
… relies on a method called Code Density Test (CDT), a statistical method which involves counting the number of asynchronous edges that occur within the relative delay of two synchronous clocks. The temperature measurement circuit converts temperature to a delay which can then be measured by the …

Classworks as a Means to Gaining Equity in the General Education Math Classroom: Perceptions of Students Receiving Special Education Services
… math classroom. Critical Disability Theory (CDT) provided the theoretical framework for the study. One of the elements important to CDT is giving voice to persons with disabilities. Traditionally, the voices of persons with disabilities have been suppressed and marginalized when the person …
