Identification of Functional Platelet-Activating Factor Receptors on Human Keratinocytes [PDF]
Platelet-activating factor (PAP) is a potent inflammatory mediator that has been shown to be produced by human keratinocytes and is thought to play a role in cutaneous inflammation, Immunofluorescence and radioligand binding studies were used to ...

On Pinsker factors for Rokhlin entropy [PDF]
In this paper we will prove that any dynamical system posess the unique maximal factor of zero Rokhlin entropy, so-called Pinsker factor. It is proven also, that if the system is ergodic and this factor has no atoms then system is relatively weakly mixing extension of its Pinsker factor.

Inflammatory responses to platelet-activating factor in human skin [PDF]
Since its discovery over 20 years ago, platelet- activating factor (PAF) has been the subject of intensive research. In particular, its role in pathophysiology has provoked as much controversy as research interest.

Receptor-independent metabolism of platelet-activating factor by myelogenous cells [PDF]
Human neutrophils incorporate and metabolize platelet-activating factor (PAF). We dissociated these events from PAF binding to its receptors. Cells were pretreated with either pronase, a PAF antagonist (L652731), or excess PAF.

New plans orthogonal through the block factor [PDF]
In the present paper we construct plans orthogonal through the block factor (POTBs). We describe procedures for adding blocks as well as factors to an initial plan and thus generate a bigger plan. Using these procedures we construct POTBs for symmetrical experiments with factors having three or more levels.

Variations in genes regulating neuronal migration predict reduced prefrontal cognition in schizophrenia and bipolar subjects from mediterranean Spain: A preliminary study [PDF]
Both neural development and prefrontal cortex function are known to be abnormal in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. In order to test the hypothesis that these features may be related with genes that regulate neuronal migration, we analyzed two genomic

Deep Factorization for Speech Signal [PDF]
Speech signals are complex intermingling of various informative factors, and this information blending makes decoding any of the individual factors extremely difficult. A natural idea is to factorize each speech frame into independent factors, though it turns out to be even more difficult than decoding each individual factor.

Platelet activating factor and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 in children with refractory epilepsy [PDF]
Background: Epilepsy is an important common and diverse group of symptom complexes characterized by recurrent spontaneous seizures. It is estimated that about 5-10% of all cases of epilepsy eventually become refractory.

Human plasma platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase (PAF-AH) is an enzyme associated mainly with the apolipoprotein B (apoB)-containing lipoproteins and primarily with LDL. A small proportion of enzymatic activity is also associated with HDL.
