Magnetic Images & A Novel Stable Ferro-Magnetic Suspension
… proof mass (PM) in stable equilibrium under the combined actions of gravity and magnetic forces. Earshaws's theorem enunciated in 1842 prohibits such a possibility.</p> <p>After the discovery of diamagnetism by Michael Faraday, Lord Kelvin predicted that diamagnetic systems are immune to this …

The cornered bear : the August 2008 war in Georgia as the culmination of Russia’s western security dilemma
… While several analyses have pointed to separate actions by NATO and the West as having influenced the 2008 war, this paper endeavors to show that the combined actions of the West and NATO since the fall of the Soviet Union created a security dilemma for Russia. Because the West refused to …

Tissue Transglutaminase And Its Role In Human Cancer Progression
… EGF-stimulated anchorageindependent growth. The combined actions of Ras and Cdc42, lead to the activation of PI 3-kinase and NF[kappa]B, mediating the EGF-dependent up-regulation of tTG in breast cancer cells. Moreover, overexpression of wild-type tTG in these cancer cells, but not its …

ELUCIDATION OF REGULATORY MECHANISMS OF TRANSCRIPTION AND COUPLED mRNA EXPORT
Gene expression is driven by the combined actions of numerous proteins that act in a regulated fashion. One of the central processes in gene expression is the export of the synthesized mRNA from nucleus to the cytoplasm where it gets translated into proteins. This journey of mRNA is mediated by …

The molecular actions of medroxyprogesterone acetate on androgen receptor signalling and the promotion of breast cancer.
… evidence of a casual link between the use of combined hormone replacement therapy (cHRT) comprising conjugated equine estrogens (CEE) and the synthetic progestin medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) and increased breast cancer risk in post-menopausal women. Since the first WHI report in 2002, …

In vitro exploration of interactions between junctin and the Ryanodine receptor from skeletal and cardiac muscle
… were employed to evaluate the direct interactions between junctin constructs and purified RyR. Both Cjun and Njun bound to the full-length RyRs. The effect of the junctin constructs on RyR1 (skeletal isoform) or RyR2 (cardiac isoform) activity was tested in lipid bilayer experiments with 1 …

Synergistic Environmental Aging of Glass Reinforced Polymer Composites
… which appeared to be much stronger under the combined actions than under individual exposures. However, synergetic aging of pure polymers was not as obvious as in the tested GRPs with the exception of the PVC resin. Based on the synergistic aging mechanisms observed on the surfaces of the …

Impact of complex system behavior on seismic assessment of RC bridges
… is non-trivial. The effect of the resulting combined interactions on structural response and its implications on system-level bridge vulnerability are assessed in this study. Fragility curves generated for bridges with varying parameters provides a means for assessing the probabilistic impact …

Development of Novel Therapeutic Strategies for Pancreatic Cancer Treatment
… with the replenishment of miR-145 expression. Combined actions of miR-145 and TRAIL markedly improve TRAIL-induced apoptotic effects in PanCa cells through the activation of an extrinsic apoptosis pathway as indicated by activation of DR4, FLIP, FADD and enhanced expression of cleaved …
