Interplanting of a deficient soybean stand
… soybeans. In the past management options for a deficient soybean stand consisted of leaving the existing stand till harvest or destroying the present stand and starting over by replanting. The objective of this study is to evaluate a third option in managing deficient soybean stands: …

Seismic retrofitting of deficient Canadian buildings
Many developed countries such as Canada and the United States are facing a significant infrastructure crisis. Most of their facilities have been built with little consideration of seismic design and durability issues. As a result, these structures are vulnerable to earthquake loadings and are in …

A method of strengthening monitored deficient bridges
… the bridges in Kansas are labeled structurally deficient or functionally obsolete. A majority of these bridges serve rural areas and are damaged due to overloading during harvest season. A state-of-the-art method of performing structural health monitoring on these bridges followed by an …

Bone fracture toughness of estrogen deficient rabbits
Bone mass is commonly used as an indicator of fracture risk. It has been shown in numerous studies that bone loss causes increased bone fragility and risk of fracture. It has also been shown that 50% of patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures have the same bone mass as normal age …

Hydrogen-deficient central stars of planetary nebulae
… of the Galactic central stars are hydrogen-deficient. Generally, the surface of these central stars is a mixture of helium, carbon, and oxygen resulting from partial helium burning. Moreover, most of them have a strong stellar wind, similar to massive Pop-I Wolf-Rayet stars, and are in …

Murine Poliomyelitis in Vitamin B Deficient Mice
Nutrition as related to resistance and susceptibility to infection presmts two quite opposite notions. In time, the idea that the consumption of adequate and proper food provides the host with greater ability to resist infection, relates to periods of famine accompanied by pestilence, find precedes …

Generation and characterization of BAP-deficient cell lines
… role of BAP proteins in the ER, mouse ES cells deficient for either BAP29, BAP31 or both were generated by a sequential gene targeting approach. Targeted disruption of the BAP31 locus was achieved using a novel type of targeting vector that combines conditional targeting with promoter trapping. …

Somatic mutagenesis in humans with deficient DNA repair
The accumulation of mutations in normal cells causes the development of cancer and is implicated as a potential mechanism in the physiological process of ageing. In recent years our ability to interrogate the genome of human cancers and the normal tissues from which they arise has expanded greatly. …

Synthesis and applications of electron deficient conjugated polymers
… with a special emphasis placed on electron-deficient materials. Chapter 2. In this chapter is presented the synthesis, characterization, and applications of a series of electron-deficient poly(p-phenylene vinylene)s (PPVs) homopolymers and copolymers. Poly(p-phenylenevinylene)s containing …

Retrofit of deficient lap splice with post-installed anchors
… need for efficient retrofit solutions, with deficient lap splices being one of many research areas. A possible method to increase the capacity of deficient lap splices is to use post-installed undercut anchors. These anchors function as active confinement in the splice region, potentially …

Non-Photic Mechanisms of Entrainment In Bmal1 Deficient Conditions
<p>Maintaining our internal circadian (i.e. 24 -hour) clock is imperative to our daily biological and mental well-being. Large epidemiological studies have shown that disruptions of our circadian rhythms can lead to poor mental health, metabolic diseases, and various types of cancer. Various …

The Role of Queuine Deficient tRNA in Translational Control
… Transfer RNA from neoplastic cells is generally deficient with regard to certain hypermodified nucleosides found in normal cells. The hypothesis that was examined is whether or not the altered efficiency of translation can be correlated to the presence of queuine hypomodified tRNA. The loss of …

Treating MTAP-Deficient Brain Tumors with Purine Synthesis Inhibition
… purine synthesis, attenuates stemness of MTAP-deficient GBM cells. This ALA-induced reduction in stemness is mediated in part by compromised mitochondrial function, highlighted by ALA-induced elimination of mitochondrial spare respiratory capacity. Notably, these effects of ALA are apparent …

Investigating pseudohypoxia in renal cells deficient in fumarate hydratase.
… role of HIF activation and pseudohypoxia in FH-deficient renal cells is unclear. This aim of this thesis was to delineate the role of hypoxia biology in the phenotypic consequences of loss of fumarate hydratase in renal cells, by taking a holistic, systems-based approach, particularly with …
