Various populations of cells are recruited to the heart after cardiac injury, but little is known about whether cardiomyocytes directly regulate repair. Using a murine model ischemic we demonstrate that play pivotal role in repair by regulating nucleotide metabolism and fates nonmyocytes. Cardiac injury induced expression ectonucleotidase ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 1 (ENPP1), which hydrolyzes extracellular ATP form AMP. In response AMP, released adenine specific...

The high sensitivity detection of terahertz radiation is crucial for many chemical sensing, biomedical imaging, security screening, nondestructive quality control, high-data-rate communication, atmospheric, and astrophysics sensing applications. Among various techniques, heterodyne great interest applications that require spectral resolution. Heterodyne involves mixing the received with a reference signal provided by local oscillator then down-converting it to an intermediate frequency...

Serum deprivation-induced apoptosis neuronal-like pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells as cell stress model, it found that effective preventing serum-deprived according to results an MTT assay Hoechst staining. deprivation resulted decreased...
Abstract Motivation: Identification of disease-related genes using high-throughput microarray data is more difficult for complex diseases as compared with monogenic ones. We hypothesized that an endophenotype derived from transcriptional associated a set corresponding to pathway cluster. assumed disease multiple endophenotypes and can be induced by their up/downregulated gene expression patterns. Thus, neural network model was adopted simulate the gene–endophenotype–disease relationship in...
This paper presents a balanced antipodal Vivaldi antenna design to produce ultra-broadband radiations from microwave millimeter-wave frequencies. In particular, this work relaxes the constraints in [1] optimize geometrical parameters broaden operational frequency bandwidth, where 147% relative bandwidth has been achieved. Moreover, optimized design, beam squint and cross-polarization (X-pol) discrepancy at high frequencies are improved by pairing two mirror-imaged structures form an...

Photon detection with quantum-level sensitivity is particularly challenging in the terahertz regime (0.1-10 THz), which contains ~98% of all photons existing universe. Near-quantum-limited spectrometry has so far only been possible through use cryogenically cooled superconducting mixers as frequency downconverters. Here we introduce a scheme that uses plasmonic photomixing for downconversion to offer sensitivities at room temperature first time. Frequency achieved by mixing radiation and...
