Cross-Talk between PPARs and the Partners of RXR: A Molecular Perspective by Lap Shu Alan Chan, Richard A. Wells

“…Many other nuclear receptor subfamily 1 members also require RXR as their obligatory heterodimerization partner and they are often co-expressed in any given tissue. Therefore, the PPARs often complete with other RXR-dependent nuclear receptors and this competition has important biological implications. …”

Online Modal Identification of Concrete Dams Using the Subspace Tracking-Based Method by Lin Cheng, Fei Tong, Jie Yang, Dongjian Zheng

“…The online modal identification of concrete dams is expressed as a subspace tracking problem, and a newly developed recursive stochastic subspace identification (RSSI) method based on the generalized yet another subspace tracker (GYAST) algorithm, which exploits both the accuracy of the subspace identification and fast computational capability, is used to extract the time-varying modal parameters of concrete dams during earthquakes. …”

In Vitro Antioxidant and Cytotoxic Activities of Some Marine Sponges Collected off Misamis Oriental Coast, Philippines by A. P. Rivera, M. M. Uy

“…The phosphomolybdenum method for total antioxidant activity determination showed that the hexane, dichloromethane and ethyl acetate extracts of five marine sponge species collected off misamis oriental coast-Aaptos suberitoides, Dactylospongia elegans, Stylissa massa, Haliclona sp. and an unidentified species coded as KL-05, have varying degrees of antioxidant capacity. Expressed as ascorbic acid equivalents in μg/mL of extract, the hexane extract of Dactylospongia elegans (DeH) and the ethyl acetate extract of Aaptos suberitoides (AsE) showed the highest antioxidant capacity. …”
