An antiserum raised against the purified human erythrocyte glucose transporter specifically immunoprecipitated a major protein of Mr36 000 and a minor protein of Mr 58 000 from human pancreatic islets. The biosynthetic incorporation of [35S]methionine into the 36-kDa protein increased 2-3 fold in 16 mM D-glucose with 0.1 mM IBMX as compared to islets incubated in 3 mM D-glucose either with or with

The study seeks to investigate long-term stock performance of RLBOs. The purpose also to investigate long-term performance differences across RLBOs by examining whether certain characteristics can be attributed to deviations in performance. In general, the study seeks to shed some light on the recent wave of leveraged buyout transactions. This study is to our knowledge based on the largest and hi

The aim of this study is to investigate impact of 2008 Global Financial Crisis on the choice of M&A payment methods, more specifically, how M&A payment methods are influenced by credit rating progression pre and post crisis. The methods used are Ordinary Least Squares and Multinomial probit regressions. The dependent variables for the OLS model is fraction of cash with credit rating level

The concept of experimentation is increasingly promoted to facilitate social learning for sustainability transitions. Experiments are collaborative initiatives designed to generate knowledge and test innovative practices to address a collective sustainability challenge. However, it is often unclear whether experiments generate any impact beyond the initial project scope. Recent literature has call

In 2000, the Clinton Administration in the U.S. adopted the Commodity Futures Modernization Act, which deregulated the U.S. trade with financial instruments on commodity markets. With respect to this adoption, it has been regarded as one catalyst for the Global food crisis 2008, where millions of individuals lacked provision and access to agricultural products and nutrition. From the perspective o

This essay explores four different aesthetic qualities (beautiful, ugly, soothing, irritating) on twoand- a-half dozen different phones as perceived by native speakers of English. Data were gathered by way of an online survey gathering 22 responses and which, when combined with several findings from previous research articles, reveal a number of tendencies both expected and unexpected. Respondents

Abstract Over 1000 published species which are largely heterogenous in morphology were formerly grouped in the lichen genus Caloplaca s. lat. (Ascomycota, eloschistaceae). Although there is no complete monograph of the genus, many taxonomic studies have focused on specific geographical regions. Although a number of these studies have focused on species that exist in California, samples of putativ

Analyzing Baltic trade pattern confirms that the economic transition, following the fall of the Soviet Union, largely involves a regional integration process with western Europe. This thesis examines the trade patterns of the three Baltic States (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania) focusing on the regional integration process with the EU. The objective is to investigate the trade relations with the EU mem

Abstract This research focuses on the lives of three Icelandic women born early in the 20th century. The aim of this study was to try to understand how these women viewed their life and how they experienced the changes that Icelandic society has undergone in the 20th century. The women are viewed as active agents that shaped their own lives but also had to live within material and social constrai

BACKGROUND: No studies have examined long-term risks for aortic aneurysm (AA) and aortic dissection (AD) or mortality after AA or AD hospitalization among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).METHODS AND RESULTS: In this observational cohort study, we linked data for patients with T2DM in the Swedish National Diabetes Register, and 5 individually matched population-based control subjects

Objective: Needle acupuncture in small children has gained some acceptance in Western medicine. It is controversial, as infants and toddlers are unable to consent to treatment. We aimed to assess its efficacy for treating infantile colic. Design: A systematic review and a blinding-test validation based on individual patient data from randomised controlled trials. Primary end-points were crying tim

In the past years, extracellular vesicles (EVs) have become an important field of research since EVs have been found to play a central role in biological processes. In pathogens, EVs are involved in several events during the host–pathogen interaction, including invasion, immunomodulation, and pathology as well as parasite–parasite communication. In this report, we summarised the role of EVs in inf

The human population displays wide variety in demographic history, ancestry, content of DNA derived from hominins or ancient populations, adaptation, traits, copy number variation, drug response, and more. These polymorphisms are of broad interest to population geneticists, forensics investigators, and medical professionals. Historically, much of that knowledge was gained from population survey pr
