Experimental data for the rate of heat transfer from impinging turbulent jets with nozzle exit
Reynolds numbers in the range of 5,000–124,000 have been collated and critically reviewed …

The aggregation of proteins into insoluble amyloid fibrils coincides with the onset of numerous
diseases. An array of techniques is available to study the different stages of the amyloid …

A study was conducted of the chemical effects on the human kidney induced by the chronic
ingestion of uranium in drinking water. Subjects were divided into two groups: The low-…

Although uranium (U) is a classic experimental nephrotoxin, there are few data on its
potential long-term chemical toxicity. These studies were undertaken to derive a no-observed-…

Retinoids, which are vitamin A derivatives, interact through retinoic acid receptors (RARs)
and retinoid X receptors (RXRs) and have profound effects on several physiological and …

Amyloid plaques in brain tissue are a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease. Primary components
of these plaques are 40- and 42-residue peptides, denoted Aβ(1−40) and Aβ(1−42), that are …

In this study, we synthesized empty core−shell structured nanocapsules of Pluronic F127
and chitosan and characterized the thermal responsiveness of the nanocapsules in size and …

The brains of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients contain large numbers of amyloid plaques
that are rich in fibrils composed of 40- and 42-residue amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides. Several lines …

Aggregation of the amyloid-β protein (Aβ) plays a pathogenic role in the progression of
Alzheimer’s disease, and small molecules that attenuate Aβ aggregation have been identified …

… Fluorescence (excitation = 450 nm, emission = 470-500 nm) was evaluated using a
Perkin-Elmer LS-45 luminescence spectrometer (Waltham, MA). Fluorescence values were …
