Automorphisms of Graph Curves on K3 Surfaces
… use the properties of finite automorphisms of $\PP^1$ to examine what restrictions a given elliptic fibration imposes on the possible finite order non-symplectic automorphisms of the $K3$ surface. We also examine the fixed loci of these automorphisms, and construct an explicit fibration to …

Protein Phosphatase Inhibitor-1 and Cdk5: Of Molecules and Memory
… mediated by Cdk5 and protein phosphatases 2A (PP-2A) and 1 (PP-1), respectively. Additionally, protein phosphatase 2B (PP-2B) contributed to dephosphorylation under conditions of high Ca2+. Functionally, Cdk5-dependent phosphorylation of inhibitor-1 intramolecularly impaired dephosphorylation …

Regulation of acid-stimulated H+ secretion by Pyk2 and MAPK signaling pathways in the outer medullary collecting duct
… Pyk2 expression levels, the Src kinase inhibitor PP 1 to inhibit Src phosphorylation, and the MEK inhibitor U0126 to inhibit ERK1/2 phosphorylation. Furthermore, we used adenoviral-gene transfer of AdCRNK, a dominant-interfering truncated Pyk2 construct, to block Pyk2 phosphorylation at Tyr402 as …

Phylogenetic inference and macro-evolutionary patterns in Ficinia Schrad. (Cyperaceae)
… Phylogenetic analyses provide strong support for the sister relationship between Isolepis and Ficinia in both parsimony and Bayesian analyses (BP = 96; PP = 1). Isolepis marginata consistently resolved as more closely related to the Ficinia clade than to the rest of the species in …

The Role of adipokines in obesity related beta-cell failure of diabetes mellitus and endothelial cell dysfunction of cardiovascular diseases.
… and adiponectin, which are two adipokines with opposing effects, has been explored in this study. In the present study, therefore, the concentrations of leptin and adiponectin with significant effect on beta cell and endothelial cell function and the basis of these functions were explored. Also, …

Deep forward and reverse phenotyping for genetic discovery in pulmonary arterial hypertension.
… PAH who had been whole-genome sequenced. The approach I have used in this thesis differs from previously published studies. Rather than relying solely on case labels in keeping with the diagnostic classification of PAH, I clustered patients into homogeneous groups based on deep phenotype …

Identifikation und Charakterisierung neuer Leptin regulierter Gene in der Beta-Zelle des endokrinen Pankreas
… Untereinheit der Protein Phosphatase 1 alpha (PP-1alpha) in INS-1 Zellen. In humanen Pankreasinseln wurde eine Kolokalisation von PP-1alpha und Insulin nachgewiesen. Eine Hemmung von PP-1alpha durch Calyculin A (Cal A) führte zu einer Reduktion der Insulinsekretion von INS-1 Zellen und humanen …

Essays in Econometrics
… [2] re-weights fully observed data to account appropriately for missingness. This paper considers a generalisation of the IPT estimator that allows for more flexible nuisance parameter estimation. It is shown that an IPT estimator with nonparametrically-estimated generated regressors retains …

Inferring extra-linguistic attributes from text - Modeling Level of Need for Assistance and Expression of Volition with text mining
**Purpose:** Decision Support Systems (DSS) are not yet used in social work in Germany although large numbers of digital reports by social care workers are more and more available in institutions. Text mining methods have the potential to improve the decision-making of professionals in social work …
