Everolimus as an mTOR Inhibitor Suppresses Endometriotic Implants: an Experimental Rat Study
(GEORG THIEME VERLAG KG, 2017)
Introduction Mammalian target of rapamycin is a pathway to block apoptosis. Recent studies showed that the activity of mammalian target of rapamycin pathway increases in endometriotic lesions. Aim of the present study was ...
Specific Adsorption of Halide Ions on Iron Surface: A Combined Electrochemical and Monte Carlo Simulation Investigation
(ESG, 2017)
The specific adsorption effect of halide ions (i.e., Cl-, Br-, I-) on the surface of mild steel in acid media has been explored by electrochemical and Monte Carlo simulating methods. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy ...

STURM-LIOUVILLE OPERATOR WITH PARAMETER-DEPENDENT BOUNDARY CONDITIONS ON TIME SCALES
(TEXAS STATE UNIV, 2017)
In this study, we consider a boundary-value problem generated by a Sturm-Liouville dynamic equation on a time scale with boundary conditions depending on a spectral parameter. We introduce the operator formulation of the ...
Truncation thresholds: a pair of spike detection thresholds computed using truncated probability distributions
(TUBITAK SCIENTIFIC & TECHNICAL RESEARCH COUNCIL TURKEY, 2017)
We describe a method for computing a pair of spike detection thresholds, called 'truncation thresholds', using truncated probability distributions, for extracellular recordings. In existing methods the threshold is usually ...
