Cyclodextrins as Emerging Therapeutic Tools in the Treatment of Cholesterol-Associated Vascular and Neurodegenerative Diseases

Molecules, 2016
Cardiovascular diseases, like atherosclerosis, and neurodegenerative diseases affecting the central nervous system (CNS) are closely linked to alterations of cholesterol metabolism. Therefore, innovative pharmacological approaches aiming at counteracting

Efficient Path Interpolation and Speed Profile Computation for Nonholonomic Mobile Robots [PDF]

, 2015
This paper studies path synthesis for nonholonomic mobile robots moving in two-dimensional space. We first address the problem of interpolating paths expressed as sequences of straight line segments, such as those produced by some planning algorithms ...

White Christian Nationalism: Adult Education and Threats to Democracy

New Directions for Adult and Continuing Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Adult education has a historical and ongoing commitment to fostering democratic relationships, demonstrated by the tendency of adult education to be called upon when social change and realignment are most desirable. This article considers the philosophical and pragmatic possibilities for adult education at this moment, when White Christian ...

Low-energy particle radiation environment at synchronous altitude [PDF]

, 1972
The degradation of thermal control coatings of satellites due to the effects of low energy charged particles in the space environment is discussed. Data obtained from ATS-5 satellite measurement of proton and electron fluxes are presented. The variations

On the evolution of environmental and mass properties of strong lens galaxies in COSMOS [PDF]

, 2011
Among the 100 strong lens candidates found in the COSMOS field, 20 with redshifts in the range [0.34,1.13], feature multiple images of background sources.

Unlearning and Deradicalizing From White Christian Nationalism: Implications for Adult Learning and Education

New Directions for Adult and Continuing Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since the January 2021 attack on the US Capitol, the influence of White Christian nationalism (WCN) has become even more pronounced and concerning. Adult educators and the public need a better understanding of whether and how WCN can be unlearned, and the roles ordinary citizens and adult educators can play in this process.

Some counterexamples for (strong) persistence property and (nearly) normally torsion-freeness

Examples and Counterexamples, 2023
In this article, we present some rare counterexamples, which are related to (strong) persistence property and (nearly) normally torsion-freeness of monomial ideals.

The Optical Properties of Gravitational Lens Galaxies as a Probe of Galaxy Structure and Evolution [PDF]

Astrophys.J.509:561-578,1998, 1997
We combine photometry and lens modeling to study the properties of 17 gravitational lens galaxies between z=0.1 and 1. Most of the lens galaxies are passively evolving early-type galaxies, with a few spirals. The colors, scale lengths, and ellipticities of lens galaxies are similar to those of the general population of early-type galaxies, although ...
