Noninvasive techniques for detecting acute cardiac transplant rejection are limited. We hypothesized that ultrasound contrast microbubbles targeted to the endothelial cell (EC) inflammatory marker intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) would selectively bind rejecting versus nonrejecting myocardium and myocardial echocardiography can therefore detect rejection.Lipid-based were conjugated anti-rat ICAM-1 (MBICAM) or isotype control antibody (MBControl). In vitro MBICAM cultured rat ECs,...

A complete molecular-orbital energy-level diagram for Ti${\mathrm{O}}_{2}$ is empirically deduced from the combined $\mathrm{Ti}{L}_{\mathrm{III}}$, $\mathrm{Ti}K$, and $\mathrm{O}K$ x-ray emission absorption band spectra. All of occupied vacant orbitals within 25 eV ${E}_{F}$ are located on a relative energy scale. The titanium $3d$, $4s$, $4p$ states oxygen $2s$ $2p$ all play important roles in chemical bonding have specific influences bands. also shown to be compatible with...

A molecular-orbital energy-level diagram is constructed and used to interpret the metal-ion LII,III x-ray emission absorption spectra from oxides, nitrides, carbides, borides of titanium vanadium. It shown that MO model provides a more accurate description experimental results than did ionic crossover transition theory. Specific electronic transitions are assigned spectral components. Anomalous peaks which fall on low-energy side main LIII band found originate in molecular orbitals primarily...

The titanium LII, III x-ray emission and absorption spectra (λ∼27.5 Å) from pure metal, oxides, nitride, carbide, boride have been investigated using a plane-crystal vacuum spectrometer with electron-beam excitation flow-proportional counter detection. Emission were studied over wide range of accelerating voltages takeoff angles, showing that satellite self-absorption effects can significantly distort the band shapes energy positions intensity maxima.

An electronic structure, in terms of molecular orbitals, is suggested for the layered compound Ti${\mathrm{S}}_{2}$. This structure based on combined $\mathrm{Ti}{L}_{\mathrm{III}}$, $\mathrm{Ti}K$, $\mathrm{S}{L}_{\mathrm{II},\mathrm{III}}$, and $\mathrm{S}K$ x-ray-emission -absorption band spectra. The x-ray data appear to be compatible with optical reflectivity spectrum but at odds theoretical estimates structure. Although results are empirically conjectural they used suggest that...

Band shapes, wavelengths, and intensities are presented discussed for the K emission spectra of oxygen fluorine from some simple oxides fluorides. It is shown that band shapes peak positions dependent upon target material which they emitted. Evidence illustrating this dependence in part due to such solid-state properties as crystal structure, valence, coordination. Results were obtained a flat-crystal vacuum spectrometer with thin window flow proportional counter using electron excitation.

Changes which occur in peak positions, band shapes, and intensities with oxidation are presented for the five main L emission lines from first-series transition metals. It is shown that bands shift wave-length when going metal to oxide, amount of depending on target its state oxidation. The dependence LII/LIII intensity ratio accelerating potential, valence state, atomic number also discussed. A flat-crystal vacuum spectrometer electron excitation a thin-window flow-proportional counter was...

A method for identifying tissue experiencing hypoxic stress due to atherosclerotic vascular disease would be clinically useful. Vascular endothelial growth factor-121 (VEGF121) is an angiogenic protein secreted in response hypoxia that binds VEGF receptors overexpressed by ischemic microvasculature. We tested the hypothesis could serve as markers and hence provide a target imaging such with radiolabeled human VEGF121.A rabbit model of unilateral hindlimb ischemia was created femoral artery...

The Mα and Mβ emission spectra the MIV MV absorption have been studied for rare earth elements. It is conclusively shown that complicated multiplet structure observed in not real but is, instead, produced by sample self-absorption. This demonstrated observing over wide variations take-off angle bombarding-electron energies finally comparing detailed of both spectra. completely overlaps lines which are each found to one intensity maximum when obtained under conditions minimum Some these never...

After the EL2 absorption band at 1.2 eV is fully photoquenched [i.e., defect completely transferred from normal (EL20) to metastable (EL2*) state] it can be partially recovered by photon excitation. This EL2*→EL20 recovery exhibits peaks 0.80 and 0.90 with shoulders 0.86 0.94 eV. Comparison made previously published photon-induced photoconductivity results are used construct a modified configuration coordinate model for defect.

High-resolution infrared ${p}_{\frac{3}{2}}$ and ${p}_{\frac{1}{2}}$ excitation spectra are reported for the group-III acceptors boron, aluminum, gallium, indium in silicon. New lines, which believed to be due previously unresolved excited states, observed spectra. A $5{p}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ line is first time gallium spectrum.

The x-ray K and LIII emission bands absorption spectra from TiO, TiN, TiC are superimposed compared with the calculated density-of-states histograms. For TiO agreement is remarkably good. It a little less good for still disagreements probably being due in part to presence of more ionicity bonding than was considered calculations. Results comparisons point up importance transition probabilities contributing can help indicate needed refinements electronic structure.

Manipulating the signaling environment is an effective approach to alter cellular states for broad-ranging applications, from engineering tissues treating diseases. Such manipulation requires knowing and histories of cells in situ, which high-throughput discovery methods are lacking. Here, we present integrated experimental-computational framework that learns response signatures a vitro perturbation atlas infers combinatorial activities vivo cell types with high accuracy temporal resolution....
