Evaluation of the Cycle Profile Effect on the Degradation of Commercial Lithium Ion Batteries
… Understanding the effect of the charge/discharge cycle profiles on battery durability is important to the implementation of batteries in electrified vehicles and to the design of appropriate battery testing protocols. In this work, commercial high-power prismatic lithium ion cells were cycled …

Synthesis and characterizations of nanostructured MnO2 electrodes for supercapacitors applications
… display high capacitance, and exhibit good cycle profile. This work investigates the ways in which different morphological structures and pore sizes can affect the effective capacitance. Various -MnO2 were successfully synthesised under low temperature conditions of 70 oC and hydrothermal …

Creation, validation, and implementation of a Highly Accelerated Life Testing (HALT) procedure to improve the reliability of printed circuit boards
… and vibration stresses through a Hot Step Stress profile, Cold Step Stress profile, Thermal Cycling, Vibration Step Stress profile and Combined Cycle profile. For validation, the standard operating procedure created is applied to a less reliable Acquity board to check whether the same standard …

Molecular aspects of the link between obesity, insulin resistance and breast cancer.
… activation of cell signalling pathways, cell cycle progression and apoptosis after treatment with insulin, leptin, TNF-α, adiponectin and IL-6. In MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells, insulin treatment did not affect cell proliferation, cell cycle or apoptosis. Conversely, IR-phosphorylation, …

Analysis of Aurora B Regulation and Signaling
… bi-orientation and cytokinesis. During the cell cycle, the level of this protein is tightly controlled and its deregulated abundance is suspected to contribute to aneuploidy. The cell cycle profile for Aurora B is reminiscent of those for substrates of the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome …

DNA Damage Induction by Bilirubin Induced Oxidative Stress and Activation of DNA Repair Pathways by Bilirubin
… DNA damage had no effect on the cell cycle profile. Similarly, exposure to bilirubin concentrations similar to those found in patients led to an increase in the Non-Homologous End Joining (NHEJ) pathway. These results suggest the general increase in DSB repair pathways by bilirubin.

Lamina-associated polypeptide 2 (LAP2) expression patterns in transformed and cancer cells
… nuclear assembly and disassembly during the cell cycle. Expression profiling studies, using microarrays, identified elevated levels of LAP2α in cervical cancer patient material compared to normal. Altered expression of LAP2 may thus have significance in the development of certain …

An investigation into the factors affecting the behaviour of Highway Filter Drains, with a particular emphasis on the Scottish Trunk Road Network
… they have an estimated operational life-cycle of ten-years.This research was undertaken to investigate the complex inter-relationship between catchment characteristics, road dynamics and the physical characteristics of the road to establish the key factors that govern the generation and …

The biological effects of HIV-1 Nef on the development of B-cell Lymphoma
… alterations in the proliferation, the cell cycle and apoptosis of BL cells that have been extracellularly exposed to recombinant Nef protein. Our findings reveal that the proliferation of BL cells was enhanced in response to Nef exposure. Furthermore, the expression of the cyclin proteins A, …
