Hajiyev There are experimental investigations of the fluids flow in the small-sized channels, the hydraulic resistances results of which are more than the estimated ones according to theoretical formulas and different supposed explanations without the quantitative evolution have been given in the reference. Taking into consideration this situation in the mechanics we were conducted the experiments in special developed unit with different fluids: water, viscous and anomalous oils.

Relations Of Cytokine Blood Spectrum With Nephropathy At Patients With Diabetes A.N. Babakhanova Work objective is to study the cytokine status of patients with diabetes of type 1 and type 2 with a complicated nephropathy and an uncomplicated course. 123 patients with diabetes and the control group of 20 people were inspected. By the immune-enzyme analysis of ELISA the levels (INF-γ, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β) were determined in blood serum of the patients. The most expressed changes of the cytokine status were observed in the patients of diabetes of type 1 and type 2 which were expressed in the initial increase of the maintenance of all studied pro-inflammatory cytokines (INF-γ, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β). Such changes in activation of the pro-inflammatory cytokines characterize this disease as an inflammatory immune-dependent process. The changes in the cytokine status had a non-uniform character with the most expressed changes in IL-1β, TNF-α, INF-γ synthesis (p ≤ 0,001) and a slight increase of IL-6.

Book excerpt: The Canary Wharf bombing in 1996 shattered nearly eighteen months of IRA cease-fire. The shrapnel blasted into the halls of Government, the hopes of Northern Irish people and the life of David Boyle. He was about to become the third innocent victim of the bombing. He was guilty. Guilty of falling in love with Kathy, another man's wife, a colleague in the Belfast office. The affair had been a release for her, a chance to dream beyond the confines of history and hate. The affair ended when she woke up to the reality. The fear of discovery, fear of her gangster husband's cruelty outweighed the damage that she inflicted on Dave. As one door closes another gets smashed off of it's hinges in an early morning police raid on Dave's home in the days following the bombing. He had been in the right place at the right time on too many occasions. A country under threat, a government under pressure and a police force needing results pick on the wrong man. Dave takes to the West Highland Way to forget his problems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition of the World Bank has been revised and expanded by the Terminology Unit in the Languages Services Division of the World Bank in collaboration with the English, Spanish, and French Translation Sections. The Glossary is intended to assist the Bank's translators and interpreters, other Bank staff using French and Spanish in their work, and free-lance translator's and interpreters employed by the Bank. For this reason, the Glossary contains not only financial and economic terminology and terms relating to the Bank's procedures and practices, but also terms that frequently occur in Bank documents, and others for which the Bank has a preferred equivalent. Although many of these terms, relating to such fields as agriculture, education, energy, housing, law, technology, and transportation, could be found in other sources, they have been assembled here for ease of reference. A list of acronyms occurring frequently in Bank texts (the terms to which they refer being found in the Glossary) and a list of international, regional, and national organizations will be found at the end of the Glossary.

Download or read book Stress and Environmental Regulation of Gene Expression and Adaptation in Bacteria 2 Volume Set written by Frans J. de Bruijn and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-09-06 with total page 1460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bacteria in various habitats are subject to continuously changing environmental conditions, such as nutrient deprivation, heat and cold stress, UV radiation, oxidative stress, dessication, acid stress, nitrosative stress, cell envelope stress, heavy metal exposure, osmotic stress, and others. In order to survive, they have to respond to these conditions by adapting their physiology through sometimes drastic changes in gene expression. In addition they may adapt by changing their morphology, forming biofilms, fruiting bodies or spores, filaments, Viable But Not Culturable (VBNC) cells or moving away from stress compounds via chemotaxis. Changes in gene expression constitute the main component of the bacterial response to stress and environmental changes, and involve a myriad of different mechanisms, including (alternative) sigma factors, bi- or tri-component regulatory systems, small non-coding RNA’s, chaperones, CHRIS-Cas systems, DNA repair, toxin-antitoxin systems, the stringent response, efflux pumps, alarmones, and modulation of the cell envelope or membranes, to name a few. Many regulatory elements are conserved in different bacteria; however there are endless variations on the theme and novel elements of gene regulation in bacteria inhabiting particular environments are constantly being discovered. Especially in (pathogenic) bacteria colonizing the human body a plethora of bacterial responses to innate stresses such as pH, reactive nitrogen and oxygen species and antibiotic stress are being described. An attempt is made to not only cover model systems but give a broad overview of the stress-responsive regulatory systems in a variety of bacteria, including medically important bacteria, where elucidation of certain aspects of these systems could lead to treatment strategies of the pathogens. Many of the regulatory systems being uncovered are specific, but there is also considerable “cross-talk” between different circuits. Stress and Environmental Regulation of Gene Expression and Adaptation in Bacteria is a comprehensive two-volume work bringing together both review and original research articles on key topics in stress and environmental control of gene expression in bacteria. Volume One contains key overview chapters, as well as content on one/two/three component regulatory systems and stress responses, sigma factors and stress responses, small non-coding RNAs and stress responses, toxin-antitoxin systems and stress responses, stringent response to stress, responses to UV irradiation, SOS and double stranded systems repair systems and stress, adaptation to both oxidative and osmotic stress, and desiccation tolerance and drought stress. Volume Two covers heat shock responses, chaperonins and stress, cold shock responses, adaptation to acid stress, nitrosative stress, and envelope stress, as well as iron homeostasis, metal resistance, quorum sensing, chemotaxis and biofilm formation, and viable but not culturable (VBNC) cells. Covering the full breadth of current stress and environmental control of gene expression studies and expanding it towards future advances in the field, these two volumes are a one-stop reference for (non) medical molecular geneticists interested in gene regulation under stress.
