Both connective tissue mast cells and grown in vitro are derived from multipotential hematopoietic stem cells, but these two cell populations exhibit many differences morphology, biochemistry, function. We investigated whether the phenotype of cultured or their progeny was altered when were transferred into different locations vivo. Cultured immature by ultrastructure, stained with alcian blue neither safranin berberine sulfate, a fluorescent dye that binds to heparin granules. By contrast,...

Abstract Mast cells may be classified into at least two phenotypically distinct populations: connective tissue-type mast (CTMC) and mucosal (MMC). in the peritoneal cavity of mice are typical CTMC, whereas mucosa stomach show morphologic characteristics MMC. We investigated whether CTMC change to A single cell WBB6F1-+/+ was identified under phase-contrast microscope, picked up with micromanipulator, injected wall genetically cell-deficient WBB6F1-W/Wv mice. The histochemical electron...

The European Commission and the Japanese National Institute of Information Communication Technologies (NICT) have made a big effort to promote collaboration between IoT Cloud communities define common baseline for future research. ClouT (Cloud+IoT) project is co-funded as part first FP7 EU-Japan cooperation call gives life fruitful six seven organizations. overarching objective provide enhanced solutions smarter cities by using cloud computing overcome some current challenges limitations in...

Presence of mast cell precursors in the mouse peritoneal cavity was demonstrated, and were characterized. When a suspension, containing precursor(s), directly injected into skin genetically cell-deficient WBB6F1 (WB X C57BL/6)-W/Wv mice, cluster composed approximately 2,000 cells appeared at injection site. By determining proportion sites which appeared, concentration can be calculated by limiting dilution analysis. The about five times as great bone marrow. Although shown to originate from...

Understanding, modeling, and predicting human mobility patterns in urban areas has become a crucial task from the perspectives of traffic disaster risk management, planning, more. HuMob Challenge 2023 aims to predict future movement trajectories based on past 100,000 users[1]. Our team, "uclab2023", considered that model design significantly impacts training prediction times trajectory prediction. To address this, we proposed BERT, commonly used natural language processing, which allows...

Summary. We have investigated the target antigens recognized by anti‐platelet antibodies in patients with chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) using an immunoblot procedure which could electrically separate glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa complex into GPIIb and GPIIIa. Various platelet proteins, having molecular weights of 167, 160, 145, 135, 124, 102, 92 80 kD, were circulating 11 40 ITP patients. identified 145 kD antigen band, seen two patients, as thrombasthenic platelets a...

Organized cultures of mammalian spinal and dorsal root ganglions were used for a comparative study the neurocytopathology caused by rabies so-called rabies-like viruses. Electron microscopy titration infectivity revised earlier data in which no difference could be demonstrated between street fixed-virus infection. In present study, fixed virus produced inclusion bodies without apparent assembly. Sequential electron revealed that main sites assembly membranes Golgi complex. contrast, viruses...

The Smart City concept relates to improve efficiency of city services and facilitate a more sustainable development cities, as well standing the key for future technological developments in Future Internet, IoT and, great quantity information stored, big data cloud computing. In this sense, paper presents ClouT project, joint European-Japanese whose main aim is making citizens aware resources helping them use care these by mean smart Cloud. This objective addressed through definition three...

Can we inspect the road condition at a low cost? City infrastructures, such as roads are very important for citizens to their city lives. Roads require constant inspection and repair due deterioration, but it is expensive do so with manual labor. Meanwhile, there official vehicles, especially garbage trucks that run through entire area of every day have cameras record driving. When use these cameras, can watch conditions anytime, anywhere. In our study, focus on attempt detecting damage,...

In order to help smart cities provide responsive services improve the quality of life their citizens, a global-scale platform relying on Cloud computing as an enabler bridge Internet Things with People via Services, is presented in this paper. This will focus citizen-centric approach, offering end-users possibility creating own and share them other well involving city stakeholders ranging from municipalities service developers application integrators. The definition, design development...

Emotions are essential for constructing social relationships between humans and interactive systems. Although emotional empathetic dialogue generation methods have been proposed systems, appropriate involves not only mirroring emotions always being but also complex factors such as context. This paper proposes Emotion Regulation Chat (ER-Chat) an end-to-end framework emotion regulation. regulation is concerned with actions to approach states. Learning intent when responding on the basis of...

As global demand for logistics continues to grow, optimizing the automation and efficiency of distribution warehouse operations is paramount importance. Digitalizing environments, which refers process sensing physical space extracting meaningful information from obtained data, offers a promising solution this challenge. However, converting raw such as video footage captured inside warehouse, into actionable metadata (e.g., tracking movement paths workers products or analyzing usage patterns...

To obtain a physiological response by total artificial heart (TAH), while eliminating the hemodynamic abnormalities commonly observed with its use, we proposed use of conductance- and arterial pressure-based method (1/R control) to determine TAH cardiac output. In this study, endeavored make variable more closely tied central nervous system (CNS) efferents, systemic conductance, provide CNS direct control over output TAH. The equation that calculates target was constructed on basis...

Summary Underbalanced drilling (UBD) holds several important advantages over conventional technology. These include minimization of formation damage, faster penetration rate, and ability for evaluation reservoir productivity during the process. As UBD technology matures, it has also been used more in different applications. However, many aspects remain poorly understood. The model presented this paper seeks to understand mechanisms involved transport cuttings UBD. simulates drill an annulus...

AbstractIt was shown that a modified Huey test, i.e., 24-h immersion in boiling 40% HNO3, is able to exactly detect the susceptibility intergranular corrosion of Alloy 600, which correlated with stress cracking (IGSCC) behavior high temperature water containing small amounts chloride ions. Chromium content at regions adjacent grain boundaries sensitized 600 analyzed as ~3% by measurement magnetic susceptibility.Heat treating low temperatures, e.g., 700°C for 15 h, improves IGSCC resistance...
