Linda Yueh. The Great Economists: How Their Ideas Can Help Us Today
Progress in the use of genetic methods to study insect behavior outside Drosophila
In the span of a decade we have seen a rapid progress in the application of genetic tools and genome editing approaches in ‘non-model’ insects. It is now possible to target sensory receptor genes and neurons, explore their functional roles and manipulate behavioral responses in these insects. In this review, we focus on the latest examples from Diptera, Lepidoptera and Hymenoptera of how applicati
Detection of islet cell autoantibodies in newly diagnosed diabetic patients using insulin-producing Syrian hamster cells.
An insulin-producing cell line, Clone-16, of hamster origin, was characterized for islet hormone production and for reactivity with islet cell surface (ICSA) and islet cell cytoplasmic (ICA) antibodies in sera from children with newly diagnosed insulin-dependent (Type 1) diabetes mellitus (IDDM). The Clone-16 cells have a doubling time of about 50-60 hr. The cells produced 63 ± 3 ng (mean ± SD) im
Immunology and Diabetes Workshops : Report of the Second International Workshop on the Standardisation of Cytoplasmic Islet Cell Antibodies - Summary of a Workshop organised by the Immunology and Diabetes Workshops Committee, supported in part by the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation International, and held at the "Science at Sea - 1987" meeting in Perth, Western Australia, from 20-22 January
Islet cell and other organ-specific autoantibodies in healthy first-degree relatives to insulin-dependent
The presence of organ-specific autoantibodies including islet cell surface, cytoplasmic and cytotoxic as well as thyroid-gastric antibodies were determined in healthy, non-diabetic, first-degree relatives to 30 insulin-dependent diabetic (IDDM) children. Thirty healthy families without family-history of diabetes mellitus served as controls. The prevalence of organ-specific autoantibodies among the
Secretin and its C-terminal hexapeptide potentiates insulin release in mouse islets
Peptides representing the C-terminal end of secretin were synthetized and their effects tested along with secretin on column-perifused isolated mouse pancreatic islets. Insulin release induced by 10 mmol/l D-glucose was potentiated by secretin tested in a concentration range of 0.01-10 μg/ml; the maximal effect was obtained with 1 μg/ml secretin. This effect was mimicked by 50-500 μg/ml NH2-Leu-Le
An H-2 alloantiserum preserves β-cell function in mice made diabetic by low-dose streptozotocin
The pancreatic β-cell mass and function in C57BL/KsJ mice is markedly reduced the day after the last injection of five daily injections of a subdiabetogenic, 40 mg/kg, dose of streptozotocin (STZ). In this study, we prepared an H-2 alloantiserum by injecting C57BL/6J mice (H-2b) with spleen lymphocytes from C57BL/KsJ (H-2(d)) mice. The alloantiserum given on five consecutive days, 5 h before each

Panel 7 – Pathogenesis of otitis media – A review of the literature between 2015 and 2019
Objective: To perform a comprehensive review of the literature from July 2015 to June 2019 on the pathogenesis of otitis media. Bacteria, viruses and the role of the microbiome as well as the host response are discussed. Directions for future research are also suggested. Data sources: PubMed database of the National Library of Medicine. Review methods: PubMed was searched for any papers pertaining

Premature birth was not associated with increased body fatness in four-year-old boys and girls
Aim: Premature birth is a worldwide problem and increases the risk of chronic disease later in life. Prematurely born infants may have a high percentage of body fat at term-equivalent age, but it is unclear if this characteristic is maintained in childhood. Therefore, we compared the size and body composition of four-year-old prematurely born children to such values of full-term controls. Methods:
Physical activity during pregnancy and intelligence in sons; A cohort study
The purpose was to examine the association between exercise during pregnancy and intelligence score in offspring. We analyzed data from 4008 women from the Aarhus Birth Cohort, Aarhus University Hospital, Denmark, recruited during pregnancy from July 1989 to November 1991 and their sons who were registered at conscription at 17-20 years of age. The women gave information by self-administered quest
Linear mixed effects models for non‐Gaussian continuous repeated measurement data
We consider the analysis of continuous repeated measurement outcomes that are collected longitudinally. A standard framework for analysing data of this kind is a linear Gaussian mixed effects model within which the outcome variable can be decomposed into fixed effects, time invariant and time‐varying random effects, and measurement noise. We develop methodology that, for the first time, allows any
Effects of the nuclear structure of fission fragments on the high-energy prompt fission γ -ray spectrum in U 235 (nth,f)
The prompt fission γ-ray energy spectrum for cold-neutron-induced fission of U235 was measured in the energy range Eγ=0.8-20MeV, by gaining a factor of about 105 in statistics compared to the measurements performed so far. The spectrum exhibits local bump structures at Eγ≈4MeV and ≈6MeV, and also a broad one at ≈15MeV. In order to understand the origins of these bumps, the γ-ray spectra were calcu

Exploring trophic niches and parasite communities of sympatric Arctic charr and brown trout populations of southern Norway
Catchment-scale variation between lake habitats has the potential to simultaneously influence the trophic niche and parasite community of fish hosts. In this study, we investigated the trophic niche and parasite community of sympatric Arctic charr and brown trout populations from two inter-connected southern Norwegian lakes at different altitudes. Arctic charr and brown trout occupied profundal an
Transaction costs of the zakat institution : An open innovation approach
This paper examines transaction costs in the institutional zakat system from the open innovation perspective and tries to understand its impact on performance. It attempts to harmonise the concept of transaction costs with the open innovation strategy, especially in the aspect of zakat distribution. A quantitative approach was applied in measuring the performance of zakat distribution, where the d
