Metal carbide/amorphous C-based nanocomposite coatings for tribological applications

Description : 40 pages , This paper tries to assess the factors governing the tribological behaviour of different nanocomposites films composed by metallic carbides (MeC) mixed with amorphous carbon (a-C). Different series of MeC/a-C coatings (with Me: Ti(B) and W) were prepared by magnetron sputtering technique var...

Tribological behaviour of titanium carbide/amorphous carbon nanocomposite coatings: From macro to the micro-scale

Description : 8 pp. Published in Surface and Coatings Technology Copyright © 2008 Elsevier B.V. , The tribological behaviour of nanocomposite coatings made of nanocrystalline metal carbides and amorphous carbon (a-C) prepared by PVD/CVD techniques is found to be very dependant on the film deposition technique, synth...

Discriminative stimulus properties of indorenate, a serotonin agonist.

Description : OBJECTIVE: To determine whether indorenate, a serotonin-receptor agonist, can exert discriminative control over operant responses, to establish the temporal course of discriminative control and to compare its stimulus properties to a (5-HT)IA receptor agonist. [3H]-8-hydroxy-2-(di-N-propylamino) tet...

Expression of gonadotropin-releasing hormone type-I (GnRH-I) and type-II (GnRH-II) in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PMBCs) and regulation of B-lymphoblastoid cell proliferation by GnRH-I and GnRH-II

Description : GnRH-I and its receptor (GnRHR-I) have previously been demonstrated and shown to be biologically active in the immune system, notably within T cells. Recently however a second form of GnRH (GnRH-II) has been described in the human. The function of both these neuropeptides in B lymphocytes has not pr...

Anosmin-1 modulates fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 signaling in human gonadotropin-releasing hormone olfactory neuroblasts through a heparan sulfate-dependent mechanism.

Description : Defects of either anosmin-1 or fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) are known to underlie hereditary Kallmann's syndrome (KS), a human disorder of olfactory and gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neuronal ontogeny. Here, we report a functional interaction between anosmin-1 and the FGFR1-FG...

Use of a specific immunogenic region on the Cowdria ruminantium MAP1 protein in a serological assay.

Description : Currently available serological tests for cowdriosis (Cowdria ruminantium infection) in domestic ruminants are hampered by their low specificities because of cross-reactivity with Ehrlichia spp. The use of recombinant major antigenic protein (MAP1) of C. ruminantium for serodiagnosis was investigate...

Antibodies against amino acids 1-15 of tumor necrosis factor block its binding to cell-surface receptor.

Description : Human tumor necrosis factor (hTNF) mediates a variety of biologic activities, which are dependent on the attachment of hTNF to cell-surface receptors. To identify regions of the hTNF protein involved in binding hTNF to its receptor, we prepared five synthetic peptides [hTNF-(1-15), hTNF-(1-31), hTNF...

Magnetic resonance imaging of the infant brain: anatomical characteristics and clinical significance of punctate lesions

Description : Objective: To describe the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characteristics of punctate brain lesions in neonates (number, appearance, distribution, and association with other brain abnormalities) and to relate them to neurodevelopmental outcome.
