Graphical Method For Solving Neutrosophical Nonlinear Programming Models, Maissam Jdid, Florentin Smarandache Sep 2023

Graphical Method For Solving Neutrosophical Nonlinear Programming Models, Maissam Jdid, Florentin Smarandache

Neutrosophic Systems with Applications

An important method for finding the optimal solution for linear and nonlinear models is the graphical method, which is used if the linear or nonlinear mathematical model contains one, two, or three variables. The models that contain only two variables are among the most models for which the optimal solution has been obtained graphically, whether these models are linear or non-linear in references and research that are concerned with the science of operations research, when the data of the issue under study is classical data. In this research, we will present a study through, which we present the graphical method …


A New Approach For The Statistical Convergence Over Non-Archimedean Fields In Neutrosophic Normed Spaces, Jeyaraman M., Iswariya S. Sep 2023

A New Approach For The Statistical Convergence Over Non-Archimedean Fields In Neutrosophic Normed Spaces, Jeyaraman M., Iswariya S.

Neutrosophic Systems with Applications

The goal of the research involves elaborating on the topics of statistical convergence, including statistical Cauchy sequences within non-Archimedean Neutrosophic normed spaces, as well as achieving specific useful conclusions. The present research shows how, within a non-Archimedean field, certain sections of statistically convergent sequences that could not be true often become true. Likewise, we created statistically complete and statistically continuous spaces for such regions that demonstrated certain essential facts. κ indicates a complete field of non-Archimedean and non-trivially valued research.

Despite substantial advances in targeting mutant KRAS, tumor resistance to KRAS inhibitors (KRASi) remains a major barrier to progress. Here, we report proteostasis reprogramming as a key convergence point of multiple KRASi-resistance mechanisms. Inactivation of oncogenic KRAS down-regulated both the heat shock response and the inositol-requiring enzyme 1α (IRE1α) branch of the unfolded protein response, causing severe proteostasis disturbances. However, IRE1α was selectively reactivated in an ER stress-independent manner in acquired KRASi-resistant tumors, restoring proteostasis. Oncogenic KRAS promoted IRE1α protein stability through extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)-dependent phosphorylation of IRE1α, leading to IRE1α disassociation from 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl reductase degradation (HRD1) E3-ligase. In …

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

The CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) binds tens of thousands of enhancers and promoters on mammalian chromosomes by means of its 11 tandem zinc finger (ZF) DNA-binding domain. In addition to the 12-15-bp CORE sequence, some of the CTCF binding sites contain 5' upstream and/or 3' downstream motifs. Here, we describe two structures for overlapping portions of human CTCF, respectively, including ZF1-ZF7 and ZF3-ZF11 in complex with DNA that incorporates the CORE sequence together with either 3' downstream or 5' upstream motifs. Like conventional tandem ZF array proteins, ZF1-ZF7 follow the right-handed twist of the DNA, with each finger occupying and recognizing …

Manuscripts, Articles, Book Chapters and Other Papers

Angiogenesis plays a critical role in various physiological and pathological processes and is regulated by VEGF. Histone Deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) is a class IIB HDAC that regulates cytoplasmic signaling through deacetylation and is emerging as a target for modulating angiogenesis. We investigated the hypothesis that VEGF-induced endothelial cell (EC) NOTCH signaling is regulated by HDAC6 through acetylation of NOTCH intracellular cytoplasmic domain (NICD). In pulmonary endothelial cells (EC), VEGF-induced activation of the NICD transcriptional response was regulated by ERK1/2 and ADAM 17 and required DLL4. While HDAC6 inhibition induced the acetylation of NICD and stabilized NICD, it repressed NICD-SNW1 binding …

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

Nitric oxide (NO) is a critical signaling molecule that has been implicated in the pathogenesis of neurocognitive diseases. Both excessive and insufficient NO production have been linked to pathology. Previously, we have shown that argininosuccinate lyase deficiency (ASLD) is a novel model system to investigate cell-autonomous, nitric oxide synthase-dependent NO deficiency. Humans with ASLD are at increased risk for developing hyperammonemia due to a block in ureagenesis. However, natural history studies have shown that individuals with ASLD have multisystem disease including neurocognitive deficits that can be independent of ammonia. Here, using ASLD as a model of NO deficiency, we investigated …


A Critical Role For Camkii In Behavioral Timescale Synaptic Plasticity In Hippocampal Ca1 Pyramidal Neurons, Jeffrey C Magee Sep 2023

A Critical Role For Camkii In Behavioral Timescale Synaptic Plasticity In Hippocampal Ca1 Pyramidal Neurons, Jeffrey C Magee

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

Behavioral timescale synaptic plasticity (BTSP) is a type of non-Hebbian synaptic plasticity reported to underlie place field formation. Despite this important function, the molecular mechanisms underlying BTSP are poorly understood. The α-calcium-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (αCaMKII) is activated by synaptic transmission-mediated calcium influx, and its subsequent phosphorylation is central to synaptic plasticity. Because the activity of αCaMKII is known to outlast the event triggering phosphorylation, we hypothesized that it could mediate the extended timescale of BTSP. To examine the role of αCaMKII in BTSP, we performed whole-cell in vivo and in vitro recordings in CA1 pyramidal neurons from mice engineered …

Emerging infectious disease (EID) represents an existential threat to humanity. EIDs are increasing in frequency and impact because of climate change and other human activities. We are losing the battle against EIDs because of improper assessment of the risk of EID. This stems from adherence to a failed paradigm of pathogen-host associations that suggests EIDs ought to be both unpredictable and rare. That, in turn, leads to policies suggesting that crisis response is the best we can do. Real-time and phylogenetic assessments show EIDs to be neither rare nor unpredictable—this is the parasite paradox that shows the failures of the …


Astrocytes In Stroke-Induced Neurodegeneration: A Timeline, Eileen Collyer, Elena Blanco-Suarez Sep 2023

Astrocytes In Stroke-Induced Neurodegeneration: A Timeline, Eileen Collyer, Elena Blanco-Suarez

Farber Institute for Neuroscience Faculty Papers

Stroke is a condition characterized by sudden deprivation of blood flow to a brain region and defined by different post-injury phases, which involve various molecular and cellular cascades. At an early stage during the acute phase, fast initial cell death occurs, followed by inflammation and scarring. This is followed by a sub-acute or recovery phase when endogenous plasticity mechanisms may promote spontaneous recovery, depending on various factors that are yet to be completely understood. At later time points, stroke leads to greater neurodegeneration compared to healthy controls in both clinical and preclinical studies, this is evident during the chronic phase …

In the literature there are numerous reports of developmental deformities in arthropods collected in their natural habitat. Since such teratogenically affected individuals are found purely by chance, the causes of their defects are unknown. Numerous potential physical, mechanical, chemical, and biological teratogens have been considered and tested in the laboratory. Thermal shocks, frequently used in teratological research on the spider Eratigena atrica, have led to deformities on both the prosoma and the opisthosoma. In the 2020/2021 breeding season, by applying alternating temperatures (14 °C and 32 °C, changed every 12 h) for the first 10 days of embryonic development, …

Stem Cell And Drug Delivery Systems For Promoting Angiogenesis And Myogenesis In Ischemic Limbs, Ning Gao

McKelvey School of Engineering Graduate Student Theses & Dissertations

Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is a widespread atherosclerotic disorder affecting more than 200 million people globally, with critical limb ischemia (CLI) being its most severe manifestation. Stem cell therapy has been a promising CLI treatment, but the harsh conditions in an ischemic limb, such as hypoxia, high reactive oxygen species (ROS) stress, and the lack of a support matrix, trophic factors, and nutrients, all compromise therapeutic efficacy by reducing the survival rate or function of transplanted cells. This thesis presents various biomaterial systems designed for stem cell and drug delivery to improve the cell microenvironment and promote angiogenesis and myogenesis …

Patients with neurocognitive disorders often battle sleep disturbances. Kynurenic acid is a tryptophan metabolite of the kynurenine pathway implicated in the pathology of these illnesses. Modest increases in kynurenic acid, an antagonist at glutamatergic and cholinergic receptors, result in cognitive impairments and sleep dysfunction. We explored the hypothesis that inhibition of the kynurenic acid synthesising enzyme, kynurenine aminotransferase II, may alleviate sleep disturbances. At the start of the light phase, adult male and female Wistar rats received systemic injections of either: (i) vehicle; (ii) kynurenine (100 mg kg−1; i.p.); (iii) the kynurenine aminotransferase II inhibitor, PF-04859989 (30 mg kg−1; s.c.); …

Lastly, we define neutrosophic base, neutrosophic subbase, neutrosophic second countability via neutrosophic b-open sets and investigate some properties.


Heterogeneity Of Human Tissue-Resident Lymphocytes, Natalia Jaeger Sep 2023

Heterogeneity Of Human Tissue-Resident Lymphocytes, Natalia Jaeger

Arts & Sciences Graduate Student Theses and Dissertations

The immune system plays a critical role in maintaining tissue homeostasis and defending against pathogens. Recent discoveries have highlighted the significance of tissue-resident memory T cells (TRM) and Innate Lymphoid Cells (ILCs) in tissue immunity. TRM exhibit memory-like properties, persist long-term in various tissues, and express markers such as CD69, CD103, and transcription factors like Hobit and Blimp-1. Similarly, ILCs, considered the innate counterparts of T cells, are abundant at barrier organs and mucosal sites, sharing similar markers and transcriptional factors with TRM, and rapidly responding to insults. Unraveling the heterogeneity and function of tissue-resident lymphocytes is crucial for understanding …
