Investigating Mechanisms of Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitor Induced Sensory Neuropathy
… controlled show peripheral sensory neuropathy (PSN), supporting the idea that the ART may cause PSN. Although the nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) used in the ART are thought to contribute to PSN, the mechanisms underlying the PSN induced by NRTIs are unclear. This is partly …

Interaction of the porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus with the macrophage-specific lectin sialoadhesin
… (hSn) sialoadhesin, the porcine sialoadhesin (pSn) shows clear sialic acid binding activity. A first objective was to verify if the R116 amino acid (aa) in the N-terminal V-set domain of pSn is important for its sialic acid binding capacity, as has been shown for mSn and hSn. A second objective …

A natureza teleológica do princípio darwiniano de seleção natural : a articulação do metafísico e do epistemológico na origem das espécies
… explicativa do princípio de seleção natural (PSN) na Origem das Espécies de Charles Darwin, enquanto tal princípio exibe uma natureza teleológica, como ponto de articulação entre suas dimensões metafísica e epistemológica. A motivação inicial para este estudo encontrou-se num interesse mais …

Optimizing search user interfaces and interactions within professional social networks
Professional social networks (PSNs) play the key role in the online social media ecosystem, generate hundreds of terabytes of new data per day, and connect millions of people. To help users cope with the scale and influx of new information, PSNs provide search functionality. However, most of the …

Performance of continuous emission monitoring systems at operating oil and gas facilities
… continuous monitoring (CM) point sensor network (PSN), monitors methane emissions continuously with sensors mounted at the perimeter of O&G sites. CM PSN solutions have become appealing, as they could potentially offer a relatively cost effective and autonomous method of identifying sporadic and …

FKBP14 in Notch Signalling and Drosophila Development
… (FKBP), as a genetic modifier of Presenilin (Psn), with FKBP14 mutants exhibiting defects typical of loss of Notch signalling. FKBPs are highly conserved and involved in a wide array of biochemical processes including protein folding, assembly, and trafficking, yet they are non-essential in …

PATIENT SIMILARITY NETWORKS-BASED METHODS FOR MULTIMODAL DATA INTEGRATION AND CLINICAL OUTCOME PREDICTION
… current landscape, Patient Similarity Networks (PSNs) are emerging as a powerful tool for representing patients' clinical and molecular profiles. These networks adapt the principles of Network Medicine, originally applied to biomolecular networks, to patient data. In a PSN, each node represents a …

A novel approach to symmetric cryptographic secured communication links for real-time teleoperation and telemetry
… designated the Permutation Substitution Network (PSN) and the Permutation Substitution Permutation Network (PSPN). Applying the PSN and PSPN structures enables the derivation of the Big Cat family of block ciphers which is a new design approach for lightweight block ciphers that focuses on speed …

Party system institutionalization and nationalization in dominant party systems
… the world. It is concluded that high PSI and PSN indices are not to be associated with political maturity and the development of democracy. Instead, they only signify the centralization of power, the increase of state control in the regions and the unification of regional voting patterns in …

Host-defence peptides from frog skin secretions: identification and bioactivity evaluation and optimisation
… five analogues were designed based on peptide PSN-PC. The hydrophobicity played a more important role in haemolytic activity compared with positive charges. Therefore, the balance between hydrophobicity and positive charges is essential for peptides to balance the cytotoxicity and antimicrobial …

Systematic Co-Culture of IPSC-CM and IPSC-AN Promote Co-Maturation In Vitro
… neurons (SN) and parasympathetic neurons (PSN) modulate the beat rate of cardiomyocytes (CM) to maintain homeostasis. Pluripotent stem cells can differentiate into CM, but differentiated CMs are fetal-like, with a high beat rate, and lack organized sarcomeric structure. Recent reports of …

Investigation of electrically tunable diode-based nonlinear transmission lines as pulse shaping networks for microwave systems at megawatt peak powers
… Line (NLTL) as a Pulse Shaping Network (PSN) to shift spectral energy distributions to higher frequencies. This work focuses on a subset of NLTL: diode-based nonlinear transmission lines (D-NLTL), which use the reverse bias p-n junction of a diode as a nonlinear permittivity. The …

Correlation between homogenisation parameters and property evolution of AA3104 CBS after hot finish rolling
… as well as IMP topology effects on PSN and the overall recrystallisation kinetics, resulting in a smaller grain size than anticipated. There was no recrystallisation in the as-cast protocol, demonstrating that the dispersoids play an essential role in recrystallisation. None of the …

Social network support for data delivery infrastructures
Network infrastructures often need to stage content so that it is accessible to consumers. The standard solution, deploying the content on a centralised server, can be inadequate in several situations. Our thesis is that information encoded in social networks can be used to tailor content staging …
