In real sensor network deployments, spatial distributions of sensors are usually far from being
uniform. Such networks often contain regions without enough sensor nodes, which we call …

The melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4-R) is a G protein–coupled, seven-transmembrane receptor
expressed in the brain. Inactivation of this receptor by gene targeting results in mice that …

Cells rely on autophagy to clear misfolded proteins and damaged organelles to maintain
cellular homeostasis. In this study we use the new autophagy inhibitor PIK-III to screen for …

Aberrant scar formation, which includes keloid and hypertrophic scars, is associated with a
pathological disorganized wound healing process with chronic inflammation. The TGF-β/…

In this letter, a 2 × 2 thermo-optic waveguide-based switch with ultralow power consumption
is demonstrated and fabricated using a standard complementary metal-oxide-semi …

Silicon photonics have progressed to a point where the next step for commercialization depends
on the accessibility of manufacturing foundries. The implementation of a fabless foundry …

We present gradient landmark-based distributed routing (GLIDER), a novel naming/addressing
scheme and associated routing algorithm, for a network of wireless communicating nodes…

Diamonds and other ultrahigh pressure (UHP) minerals have been reported previously from
the Luobusa ophiolite of Tibet, but these minerals have thus far been found only as …

The effects of initial pH on simultaneous production of ganoderic acid and a polysaccharide
by the fungus Ganoderma lucidum were investigated in shake flasks. An initial pH value, …

The effects of nitrogen source and initial glucose concentration were studied in submerged
fermentation of higher fungus Ganoderma lucidum for simultaneous production of bioactive …
