Transcriptional impairment of β-catenin/E-cadherin complex is not associated with β-catenin mutations in colorectal carcinomas

Abstract: We report the absence of β-catenin mutations in 63 sporadic colorectal carcinomas (SCRCs) with demonstrated decreased β-catenin and E-cadherin mRNA expression and E-cadherin protein expression in a subset of carcinomas examined, suggesting that β-catenin mutations are an extremely rare phenomenon in SCRCs and are not responsible for the transcriptional impairment of the β-catenin/E-cadherin adhesion complex observed in these tumours.

The marital status and the happiness

Abstract: The changes in the family as the social institution that are described as the second demographic transition revealed the reality of new social links, affected the selection of the strategies and methods of family establishment and led to the family de-institutionalization processes. The changes had also affected the status of formal and informal roles in the family. Those changes catalyzed the greater variety of families and households which can be illustrated by the spread of cohabitation and the increased numbers of children born outside the traditional marriage. The above changes demonstrate the conscious choices to family relationship building. Present research paper aims to find out how does the human happiness which is mostly described by a subjective well-being index depend on the family status.

Enzymatic modification of ramie fibers and its influence on the performance of ramie-poly(butylene succinate) biocomposites

Abstract: Enzymatic modification of ramie fibers was carried out and its influence on the performance of ramie-poly(butylene succinate) biocomposites was studied Ramie fibers were treated with bacterial cellulase (Brevibacillus parabrevis and Streptomyces albaduncus) for the modification of surface properties Effect of different reaction parameters such as carbon sources, nitrogen sources, pH, temperature and incubation period on the hydrolysis of ramie cellulose was studied Modified ramie fibers were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction techniques Thermal stability and moisture absorption properties of modified ramie fibers were also studied Enzymatically modified ramie fibers were used as reinforcing material for the development of poly(butylene succinate) biocomposites Enzymatic treatment results in the removal of gum and polysaccharide layers from the surface of ramie fibers and contributed towards the improved compatibility between fibers and polymer matrix

Efficient weighted least-squares algorithm for the design of FIR filters

Abstract: The weighted least-squares (WLS) technique has been widely used for the design of digital FIR filters. In the conventional WLS, the filter coefficients are obtained by performing a matrix inverse operation, which needs computation of O(N3). The authors present a new WLS algorithin that introduces an extra frequency response including implicitly the weight function. In the new algorithm, the filter coefficients can be solved just by a matrix vector multiplication. It reduces the computational complexity from O(N3) to O(N2).
