Myoglobin is a primary iron, and oxygen-binding protein of muscle tissues and levels can be an important diagnostic biomarker for acute myocardial infarction, myocardial necrosis, or other cardiac diseases. The establishment of myoglobin recognition systems is important because of its protein's structural and functional values in physiology, biochemistry, and diagnostic value in some damaged muscl
Interferons are important proteins for the immune system because of their antiviral, anti-proliferating and immunomodulatory activities. Therapeutic value of these proteins against certain types of tumors caused interest and investigations aimed to obtain highly purified interferons. Molecular imprinting is an efficient method for purification with high selectivity, specificity and good reproducib
Immunoglobulin light chain (AL) amyloidosis is characterized by tissue deposition of amyloid fibers derived from immunoglobulin light chain. AL amyloidosis and multiple myeloma (MM) originate from monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance. We wanted to characterize germline susceptibility to AL amyloidosis using a genome-wide association study (GWAS) on 1229 AL amyloidosis patients from G
Antibodies are used in many applications, especially as diagnostic and therapeutic agents. Among the various techniques used for the purification of antibodies, immunoaffinity chromatography is by far the most common. For this purpose, oriented immobilization of antibodies is an important step for the efficiency of purification step. In this study, F(c) fragment-imprinted poly(hydroxyethyl methacr
F(ab) fragments imprinted surface plasmon resonance (SPR) chip was prepared for the real-time detection of human immunoglobulin G (IgG). In order to attach polymerization precursor on SPR chip, the SPR chip surface was modified with allyl mercaptan. F(ab) fragments of the IgG molecules were prepared by papain digestion procedure and collected by fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC) system usi
A supermacroporous cryogel was prepared to obtain an efficient and cost effective purification of IgG from human plasma. N-methacryloyl-(L)-histidine methyl ester (MAH) was chosen as the pseudospecific ligand and/or comonomer. Poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate-N-methacryloyl-(L)-histidine methylester) [PHEMAH] cryogel was produced by free radical polymerization initiated by N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylene d
Objective: Curative gastric cancer surgery entails removal of the primary tumor with adequate margins including regional lymph nodes. European randomized controlled trials with recruitment in the 1990’s reported increased morbidity and mortality for D2 compared to D1. Here, we examined the extent of lymphadenectomy during gastric cancer surgery and the associated risk for postoperative complicatio
Introduction: Police work involves stressors specific to police workand to general organizational aspects of work. Some of the latterhas previously been identified as risk factors for burnout, particularly to increased degree of the burnout sub-dimension cynicism.Cynicism has in turn been related to a positive attitude to the use offorce to solve problems. In the present study the relationshipsbet
Fomitopsis pinicola is a species of Polyporales frequently encountered in Nordic temperate and boreal forests. In nature, the fungus causes destructive brown rot in wood, colonizing tree trunks often occupied by other Basidiomycota species. We mimicked these species-species interactions by introducing F. pinicola to five white rot species, all common sapro-trophs of Norway spruce. Hyphal interacti
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short non-coding RNAs with key roles in cellular regulation. As part of the fifth edition of the Functional Annotation of Mammalian Genome (FANTOM5) project, we created an integrated expression atlas of miRNAs and their promoters by deep-sequencing 492 short RNA (sRNA) libraries, with matching Cap Analysis Gene Expression (CAGE) data, from 396 human and 47 mouse RNA samples.
The purpose of the book was studying the possibility of constructing and validating the literary canon after the literature written during the communist period. After 1989, the number of presses and publishing houses proliferated and it became practically out of question for literary critics to review everything that was published. Culture was one of the least affected forms of communication and i
The saying of Jesus in Matt 11:25–30 is often understood as a presentation of him as Wisdom personified or as wisdom teacher and great Revealer, influenced by the wisdom sayings in Sirach. The yoke of Jesus refers to his teaching/law, so the conclusion is that the teaching of Jesus is easy to perform or follow. Though the teaching role of Jesus is prominent in Matthew and his wisdom is underlined,
Platform strategies, which highlight the interdependence in and evolution of business ecosystems, are increasingly relevant for sustainable business models in the digital era. So far, platform research has existed as a fragmented body of insights from different fields, but an integrated theoretical perspective can lead to a more coherent understanding of the research overall. Organizational ambide
This paper investigates key determinants of business performance in China's video industry in the era of digital convergence. Specifically, we analyze China's OTT (over-the-top) service providers and cable operators based on the perspective of an industry platform, which acts as the core module of a business ecosystem and is capable of facilitating and coordinating interdependence among different
This study explores how a platform approach facilitates the implementation of advanced service offerings in manufacturing firms. Understanding servitization through a platform approach is important because many manufacturing firms fail to manage the service paradox, that is, the challenge of simultaneously enriching the value proposition by adding services while maintaining cost levels. This study
This study examines how subsidiaries can manage dual embeddedness with both local partners and a multinational enterprise. Specifically, we examine the role of absorptive capacity and appropriability mechanisms on subsidiary performance. We analyse how absorptive capacity and appropriability enable subsidiaries to successfully address knowledge challenges related to internal and external networks.
