Functional Utility of Action in the Theoretical Perspective h. Spencer's Sociology
RUDN journal of Sociology, 2008 This paper analyses the concept of individual action in light of Herbert Spencer's social evolution model. Given the particularities of the historical period in which Spencer lived, several lines of theory held by Spencer's predecessors are derived that ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

The Shannon Information of Filtrations and the Additional Logarithmic Utility of Insiders [PDF]
The background for the general mathematical link between utility and information theory investigated in this paper is a simple financial market model with two kinds of small traders: less informed traders and insiders, whose extra information is ...

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Robust Utility Maximization in a Stochastic Factor Model [PDF]
We give an explicit PDE characterization for the solution of a robust utility maximization problem in an incomplete market model, whose volatility, interest rate process, and long-term trend are driven by an external stochastic factor process. The robust

Influence of the mold inhibitor on productivity and functional activity of broiler chicken’s liver
Новые технологии, 2017 During the experiment broiler chickens were the object of the research. The purpose of the study was to study the effect of different doses of the Oxy-Nile mold inhibitor in rations with an increased content of B1 aflatoxin on the utility-beneficial ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Aptamers are used both therapeutically and as targeting agents in cancer treatment. We developed an aptamer‐targeted PLGA–TRAIL nanosystem that exhibited superior therapeutic efficacy in NOD/SCID breast cancer models. This nanosystem represents a novel biotechnological drug candidate for suppressing resistance development in breast cancer.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

More pessimism than greediness: a characterization of monotone risk aversion in the Rank-Dependent Expected Utility model [PDF]
This paper studies monotone risk aversion, the aversion to monotone, meanpreserving increase in risk (Quiggin [21]), in the Rank Dependent Expected Utility (RDEU) model.
