Transforming growth factor-β (TGFβ) is a potent inhibitor of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell proliferation. However, the precise mechanism for this effect is unknown. Here, we have identified the transcription factor Gata2, previously described as an important regulator of hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) function, as an early and direct target gene for TGFβ-induced Smad signaling in hematopoi
This letter presents dc characteristics and low-frequency noise (LFN) measurements on single vertical InAs nanowire MOSFETs with 35-nm gate length and HfO2 high-kappa dielectric. The average normalized transconductance for three devices is 0.16 S/mm, with a subthreshold slope of 130 mV/decade. At 10 Hz, the normalized noise power S-I/I-d(2) measures 7.3 x 10(-7) Hz(-1). Moreover, the material-depe
A readily mass-producible, flip-chip assembled, and slot-coupled III-V compound semiconductor dielectric resonator antenna operating in the millimeter-wave spectrum has been fabricated and characterized. The antenna has a 6.1% relative bandwidth, deduced from its 10 dB return loss over 58.8-62.5 GHz, located around the resonance at 60.5 GHz. Gating in the delay-domain alleviated the analysis of th
A major problem when studying behavior and migration of small organisms is that many of the questions addressed for larger animals are not possible to formulate due to constraints on tracking smaller animals. In aquatic ecosystems, this problem is particularly problematic for zoo- and phytoplankton, since tracking devices are too heavy to allow the organism to act naturally. However, recent advanc
Popular Abstract in English The two most used building materials in harbor structures are undoubtedly steel and concrete. These two materials are often combined in the structures of wharfs and quays where most steel sheet pile walls have cap beams of reinforced concrete. The degradation processes of these structures must be taken into account both when designing new structures and when inspecting The two most used building materials in harbor structures are undoubtedly steel and concrete.

We can more and more often hear in the media about multinational corporations conducting human rights abuses. This is due to the fact that this discussion, surrounding corporations and human rights, is a hot item on the agenda today. Higher demands are put on the companies to follow human rights and to take more responsibilities in the promotion and protection of human rights. One of the reasons f

Vår undersökning har följt den svenske rapartisten Einár genom hans karriär. Vi har observerat olika händelser som han har uppmärksammats för, som att han har vunnit pris, att han har blivit kidnappad och rånad, och att han slutligen har blivit skjuten och avled till följd av en skottlossning. Källorna som används är diverse artiklar från SVT Nyheter (som finansieras av public service). I vår anal
30 juni 2022 trädde en omfattande ändring av lag (1982:80) om anställ-ningsskydd i kraft. Ändringarna syftade dels till att göra det lättare för ar-betstagare att komma in samt få en trygg anställning på arbetsmarknaden, dels att göra det enklare och mer flexibelt för arbetsgivare att anställa och avsluta anställningar och därmed minska riskerna med att anställa. Bland annat bytte allmän visstidOn June 30, 2022, a comprehensive amendment to the Employment Protec-tion Act (1982:80) came into effect. The changes aimed to make it easier for employees to enter and secure employment in the labor market, as well as to simplify and provide more flexibility for employers in hiring and terminating employment, thereby reducing the risks associated with hiring. Amongst other changes "general f
“ Etableringsuppdraget ” is a government programme that aims at stimulating and facilitating the integration of immigrants into the labour market. Studies have shown that women struggle more than men, while entering the labour market. Therefore, this study discusses statistical data on the discrepancies between women and men, while participating in etableringsuppdraget during 2016. The data is bas
Mobile payments have become an increasingly hot topic due to the wide availability of smartphones and mobile internet on the Swedish market. Banks have historically enjoyed a monopoly position in payments, but have recently seen new entrants contending for a share of the market as payments go mobile. Mobile operators, technology companies, and merchants all want to join the mobile payments space i
This thesis investigates the free boundary value problem of pricing American put options written on one underlying asset. In particular, attention is given to nd an accurate approximation of the critical ex- ercise boundary. The problem is approached using radial basis func- tions in the shape of Gaussian densities, and basis functions in the form of European put options. Furthermore, the domain i
Barefoot doctor system is an important part of primary health care policy changes in China after the founding of New China, is a special viewpoint to study the special period of grassroots political change. Why medical care’s come into the sight of top leaders at that time? What does medical care system mean to modern state building? There may be a certain natural link between the body and the nat
This paper looks at the potential economic outcomes of Germany’s Anti- Nuclear policies, especially the policies of the early 2000’s and those made in 2011 in the wake of the Japanese nuclear disaster at Fukushima, in which research and development (R&D) funding has been increasingly shifted away from the nuclear sector. This paper discusses the German case after it is established through theo
Syftet med denna studie var att se på prevalensen av dead regions, frekvensområden i cochlea där det inte finns fungerande inre hårceller (lliC), hos en grupp hörselskadade personer. De hörselskadade personerna har undersökts med det nya testet "Diagnosis for de ad regions" utvecklat av Brian Moore et al. (2000). Försökspersonernas resultat av Dead regionstest har sedan korrelerats med r
The thesis argues that systemic banking crises and inequality go hand in hand, with inequality in front. Through showing how factors commonly found to influence banking crises, such as household and business debt levels, asset prices, default ratios, and credit growth (all important in Minsky-type bubbles) theoretically can be attributed to decreasing relative wages of households, and/or concentra
The number of people escaping from wars and conflicts to European welfare states is increasing. Many of them are children; some come as unaccompanied minors (UMs), fleeing without parents or any other responsible family member, entering and living in the country of refuge on their own. The “United Nations” (UN) and its “Convention on the Rights of the Child” from 1989 secures them special protecti
