Bei der Patientin war ein metastasiertes malignes kutanes Melanom bekannt, welches mit den Immun-Checkpoint-Inhibitoren Nivolumab und Ipilimumab behandelt wurde. Die ophthalmologische Untersuchung zeigte beidseits einen...
Diradical-singlet character of 1,3-dipoles affects reactivity of 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions and intramolecular cyclizationAbstract1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition (1,3-DC) reactions are powerful synthetic tool to obtain highly functionalized 5-membered heterocycles, starting from a 1,3-dipole and a dipolarophile in a single step. The reactivity of these systems is usually rationalized in terms of Frontier Molecular Orbital Theory (FMOT), which neglects a possible contribution of an open-shell weakly...
Special Section on the MASCC/ISOO Clinical Practice Guidelines for the Management of Mucositis - 2019 UpdateThe MASCC/ISOO Mucositis Guidelines 2019 Update: introduction to the first set of articlesSystematic review of basic oral care for the management of oral mucositis in cancer patients and clinical practice guidelinesAbstractPurposeThe aim of this study was to update the clinical practice guidelines for the use of basic oral care (BOC) interventions for the prevention and/or treatment of oral...
Obstacle avoidance path generation method for mobile robot using varying search rangeAbstractIn this study, an obstacle avoidance algorithm, with variable range searching, is proposed for a mobile robot. In the case of the distance transform method, the mobile robot cannot avoid the obstacle when it is narrow. We prepare a grid map with the obstacle and distance levels from a destination. A path with both the least number of turns, and the shortest distance, is generated. The search range depends...
Featured characteristics and pivotal roles of satellite cells in skeletal muscle regenerationAbstractSkeletal muscle, the essential organ for locomotion, as well as energy reservoir and expenditure, has robust regenerative capacity in response to mechanical stress and injury. As muscle-specific stem cells, satellite cells are responsible for providing new myoblasts during the process of muscle growth and regeneration. Self-renewal capacity and the fate of satellite cells are highly regulated and...

NLRP12 negatively modulates inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression and tumor necrosis factor-α production in Porphyromonas gingivalis LPS-treated mouse macrophage cell line (RAW264.7)AbstractObjectiveThe aim of the present study is to investigate the participation of NLRP12 in Porphyromonas gingivalis LPS-activated mouse macrophages.MethodsNLRP12-depleted mouse macrophages were stimulated with P. gingivalis LPS (1 μg/ml.). At indicated time points, the treated cells were lysed and the...
Thermally induced characterization and modeling of physicochemical, acoustic, rheological, and thermodynamic properties of novel blends of (HEF + AEP) and (HEF + AMP) for CO 2 /H 2 S absorptionAbstractCO2 and H2S removal from flue gases is indispensable to be done for protection of environment with respect to global warming as well as clean air. Chemical absorption is one of the most developed and capable techniques for the removal of these sour gases. Among the many solvents, ionic liquids (ILs)...
