Activated: Decentering activism in and with academia [PDF]
Who is an activist? With the advent of activism-related scholarship in HCI and CSCW, the current challenge involves thinking about what activism is, who an activist is, and the opportunities and limitations of activism. Recently, researchers in academia and industry, such as Timnit Gebru, demonstrate a commitment to stay activated for the structural ...

To Activate or Not to Activate [PDF]
In a recent study, Watanabe et al identify a novel enhancer in the fgf10 locus that is necessary and sufficient for expression in anterior second heart field. Their results suggest a competitive mechanism in which Isl1 and Nkx2-5 bind the enhancer to activate or repress this enhancer, respectively.

Activate or Not: Learning Customized Activation [PDF]
We present a simple, effective, and general activation function we term ACON which learns to activate the neurons or not. Interestingly, we find Swish, the recent popular NAS-searched activation, can be interpreted as a smooth approximation to ReLU. Intuitively, in the same way, we approximate the more general Maxout family to our novel ACON family ...

Selenourea as a hydrogen bond donor catalyst and source of selenium for metal-, activator-free synthesis of selenoesters in a batch and flow reactor [PDF]
A new metal- and activator-free method for the synthesis of selenoesters from carboxylic acids, Michael acceptors, and selenourea is reported. This is the first reported method for the synthesis of selenoesters directly from carboxylic acids, using ...

Mechanism of Action of Compound-13:an α1-Selective Small Molecule Activator of AMPK [PDF]
AMPK is a sensor of cellular energy status and a promising target for drugs aimed at metabolic disorders. We have studied the selectivity and mechanism of a recently described activator, C2, and its cell-permeable prodrug, C13. C2 was a potent allosteric

Effect of dsRNA on Mesangial Cell Synthesis of Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor Type 1 and Tissue Plasminogen Activator [PDF]
Background/Aims: Viral infections are a major problem worldwide and many of them are complicated by virally induced glomerulonephritides. Progression of kidney disease to renal failure is mainly attributed to the development of renal fibrosis ...

The initial effects of the treatment of Class II, division 1 malocclusions with the van Beek activator compared with the effects of the Herren activator and an activator-headgear combination [PDF]
The effects of the van Beek activator in the correction of Class II, division 1 malocclusions were studied in 39 children, aged 9–13 years (median 11 years), and compared with the effects of treatment with an activator according to Herren and with those ...

Urokinase-Type Plasminogen Activator Promotes Paracellular Transmigration of Neutrophils Via Mac-1, But Independently of Urokinase-Type Plasminogen Activator Receptor [PDF]
Background: Urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) has recently been implicated in the pathogenesis of ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. The underlying mechanisms remain largely unclear.

Transcriptional activators and activation mechanisms [PDF]
Transcriptional activators are required to turn on the expression of genes in a eukaryotic cell. Activators bound to the enhancer can facilitate either the recruitment of RNA polymerase II to the promoter or its elongation. This article examines a few selected issues in understanding activator functions and activation mechanisms.
