Α-Amino-Β-Sulphone Hydroxamates As Potent Mmp-13 Inhibitors That Spare Mmp-1, Daniel P. Becker Ph.D., Thomas E. Barta, Louis Bedell, Gary Decrescenzo, John Freskos, Daniel P. Getman, Susan L. Hockerman, Madeleine Li, Pramod Mehta, Brent Mischke, Grace E. Munie, Craig Swearingen, Clara I. Villamil

Chemistry: Faculty Publications and Other Works

A series of α-amino-β-sulphone hydroxamates was prepared and evaluated for potency versus MMP-13 and selectivity versus MMP-1. Various substituents were employed on the α-amino group (P1 position), as well as different groups attached to the sulphone group extending into P1′. Low nanomolar potency was obtained for MMP-13 with selectivity versus MMP-1 of >1000× for a number of analogues.

α-Amino-β-sulphone hydroxamates were prepared, which are potent MMP-13 inhibitors with selectivity versus MMP-1 of >1000× for a number of analogues. Selected compounds exhibited oral bioavailability.

Persuasion: A Model Of Majoritarianism As Adjudication, Christopher J. Peters

All Faculty Scholarship

This article, which has been published in slightly revised form at 96 Nw. U.L. Rev. 1 (2001), is an application and extension of my theory of adjudication as representation, which holds that the procedural elements of litigant participation and interest representation confer democratic legitimacy on court decisions. In the article, I first develop the notion of a "majoritarian difficulty": the often-ignored tension between democratic self-rule and majority domination of the political minority. Second, I offer a model of majoritarianism as a type of adjudication, in which interested parties lobby for favorable decisions by a neutral decisionmaker. Third, I contend that …

Attorney Fact-Finding, Ethical Decision-Making And The Methodology Of Law, Robert Rubinson

All Faculty Scholarship

This Article explores the significance, challenges, and complexities of attorney fact-finding in ethical decision-making. Almost all discourse about legal ethics, from the pedagogical to the scholarly to the practical, takes facts for granted in order to focus on issues about ethical rules. The factual dimension of ethical decision-making, however, is critical to the decision-making process and can be subjected to rigorous and systematic study. Indeed, it is lawyers in a situation who engage in ethical decision-making, and such a situation entails the assimilation and interpretation of many sources of information. Such a process necessarily includes the motivations and ambivalence of …

Business Lawyer, Woman Warrior: An Allegory Of Feminine And Masculine Theories, Barbara Ann White

All Faculty Scholarship

The first part of this essay is a discourse on how two of the last half century’s most influential contributions to legal thinking: Law and Economics Jurisprudence and Feminist Legal Theory, whose adherents are normally adversaries, can function synergistically to create a greater analytic power. Using business law issues as an example - historically law and economics’ terrain but recently explored by feminism - I comment on how each can unravel different knots but each standing alone leave other conundrums unresolved.

Expanding on the feminist concept of “masculine thinking,” I discuss how, just as law and economics’ analytic style (i.e., …

Derivation Of Del180 From Sediment Core Log Data' Implications For Millennial-Scale Climate Change In The Labrador Sea, M. E. Weber, Larry A. Mayer, C. Hillaire-Marcel, G. Bilodeau, F. Rack, R. N. Hiscott, A. E. Aksu

Center for Coastal and Ocean Mapping

Sediment core logs from six sediment cores in the Labrador Sea show millennial-scale climate variability during the last glacial by recording all Heinrich events and several major Dansgaard-Oeschger cycles. The same millennial-scale climate change is documented for surface water δ¹⁸O records of Neogloboquadrina pachyderma (left coiled); hence the surface water δ¹⁸O record can be derived from sediment core logging by means of multiple linear regression, providing a paleoclimate proxy record at very high temporal resolution (70 years). For the Labrador Sea, sediment core logs contain important information about deepwater current velocities and also reflect the variable …

Herbicide Evaluation In Arkansas Cotton 2000, Marilyn Mcclelland, Jim Barrentine, Ken Smith, Nilda Burgos

Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Series

Herbicidal weed control is economically important for production of cotton. Field experiments are conducted annually in Arkansas to evaluate the activity of developmental and commercial herbicides for selective control of weeds in cotton. These experiments serve both industry and Arkansas agriculture by providing information on the selectivity of herbicides still in the developmental stage and by comparing the activity of these new herbicides with that of recommended herbicides.

The Influence Of Ramayana On The Vaishnava Hymns, R. Seeta Lechumi Ratha Krishnan

Student Works (2000-2009)

The aim of this study is to identify and assess the influences of the Ramayanas on the hymns of the Tamil Vaishnava saints called alvars. The hymns of each alvar is examined separately and the Ramayana incidents are then collectively scrutinised to assess the treatment of these incidents by the alvars. They are also compared with similar events in the Ramayanas of VaImiki and Kampar. Research for the study is based on the library method and for the collection of relevant material, the documentation method is used. The facts thus collected are analysed according to the synthesis method and then …

A Disjunction Between Personal, Professional And Societal Values In Pre-Service Teacher Education, Peter Reynolds

Australian Journal of Teacher Education

Following the development of the Common and Agreed National Goals for Schooling (Australian Education Council, 1989) the Western Australian Curriculum Council was established and it has subsequently developed a Curriculum Framework for eight learning areas as well as for the values identified as implicit within those learning areas and within the governance of schools (Curriculum Council, 1998). These values have been called the shared core values of Australian society. Within the context of an analysis of these values, this paper presents the findings from a survey of the personal and the perceived societal values of Australia held by a sample …

Diversity Of Plant-Parasitic Nematodes And Their Relationships With Some Soil Physico-Chemical Characteristics In Improved Fallows In Western Kenya, Serigne T. Kandji, Callistus K.P.O. Ogol, Alain Albrecht

All Peer-Reviewed Publications

A survey was conducted in the food crop production area of western Kenya to characterise the nematode communities in different cropping systems and to monitor the effect of improved fallows on the abundance, diversity and community structure of plant-parasitic nematode assemblages. Soil samples were taken from short-term natural fallows (<3 years), old natural fallows (>20 years), maize/beans cultivated fields and improved fallows with Crotalaria grahamiana, Sesbania sesban and Tephrosia vogelii. The Shannon diversity index and evenness were used to assess nematode diversity in the different cropping systems. The relationships between plant-parasitic nematodes and the soil physico-chemical properties were investigated with principal component analysis and …

Acoustic Wave Heating Of The Thermosphere, Michael P. Hickey Ph.D., G. Schubert, R. L. Walterscheid

Publications

A numerical model is used to study the dissipation in the thermosphere of upward propagating acoustic waves. Whereas dissipating gravity waves can cool the upper atmosphere through the effects of sensible heat flux divergence, it is found that acoustic waves mainly heat the thermosphere by viscous dissipation. Though the amplitudes of acoustic waves in the atmosphere are poorly constrained, the calculations suggest that dissipating acoustic waves can locally heat the thermosphere at rates of tens of kelvins per day and thereby contribute to the thermospheric energy balance. It is shown that viscous heating cannot be calculated from the divergence of …
