Aromatase, the enzyme responsible for estrogen biosynthesis, is a particularly attractive target in the treatment of hormone-dependent breast cancer. The synthesis and biological evaluation of a series of 2-(4′-pyridylmethyl)thio, 7-alkyl- or aryl-substituted isoflavones as potential aromatase inhibitors are described. The isoflavone derivatives demonstrate IC50 values from 79 to 553 nM and compete with the endogenous substrate, androstenedione. Data supporting the ability of these analogs to suppress aromatase enzyme activity in the SK-BR-3 breast cancer cell line are also presented.
Entropic Characterization Of Mixing In Microchannels, Marco Camesasca, Ica Manas Zloczower, Miron Kaufman
Entropic Characterization Of Mixing In Microchannels, Marco Camesasca, Ica Manas Zloczower, Miron Kaufman
Physics Faculty Publications
A methodology for rigorous mixing assessment in microchannels is presented. The analysis is based on numerical simulations of flow in different geometries coupled with mixing assessment using entropic measures. The results show enhanced mixing efficiency for the staggered herringbone micromixer by comparison with a mixer with straight diagonal ridges and a lack of mixing in a non-patterned channel. These results are in agreement with published experimental data.

In the title compund, C31H30N2, π–π overlap is absent in the region where carbazole groups of two adjacent molecules are inclined toward each other. The ethyl groups which protrude from the plane of the carbazole groups and the alkylene chain connecting the two carbazole groups are responsible for the poor molecular stacking.
Debye Series Analysis Of Scattering Of A Plane Wave By A Spherical Bragg Grating, James A. Lock
Debye Series Analysis Of Scattering Of A Plane Wave By A Spherical Bragg Grating, James A. Lock
Physics Faculty Publications
The Debye series decomposition of the partial-wave scattering amplitudes of a multilayer sphere is derived. The partial-wave transmission and reflection terms appearing in the Debye series are multiple-scattering amplitudes written in terms of four basic quantities and combined together layer by layer in an identical way. The resulting expressions are then used to calculate the scattered intensity of a spherical Bragg grating covering a dielectric core particle and to analyze a number of new structures appearing in the scattered intensity.

The generalized Kronecker sum was used by Wang and Wu (J. Amer. Statist. Assoc. 86 (1991) 450) and Dey and Midha (Statist. Probab. Lett. 28 (1996) 211; Proc. AP Akad. Sci. 5 (2001) 39) to construct mixed orthogonal arrays. We modify their methods to obtain several families of mixed orthogonal arrays. Some new arrays with run size less than 100 are found.

Construction Of M^4 Run Linear Graphs By Finite Geometries, Chung Yi Suen
Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications
Finite projective geometries are used to obtain some series of Taguchi's linear graphs involving m^4 runs, where m is a prime or a prime power. The concept of maximal linear graph is introduced to reduce the number of nonisomorphic linear graphs. Some 81-run maximal linear graphs are given as examples. A table of 27 nonisomorphic 16-run maximal linear graphs, which is believed to be complete, is provided.

Incorporation Of Factor Va Into Prothrombinase Is Required For Coordinated Cleavage Of Prothrombin By Factor Xa, Michael A. Bukys, Melissa A. Blum, Paul Y. Kim, Nicole Brufatto, Michael E. Nesheim, Michael Kalafatis
Chemistry Faculty Publications
Prothrombin is activated to thrombin by two sequential factor Xa-catalyzed cleavages, at Arg271 followed by cleavage at Arg320. Factor Va, along with phospholipid and Ca2+, enhances the rate of the process by 300,000-fold, reverses the order of cleavages, and directs the process through the meizothrombin pathway, characterized by initial cleavage at Arg320. Previous work indicated reduced rates of prothrombin activation with recombinant mutant factor Va defective in factor Xa binding (E323F/Y324F and E330M/V331I, designated factor VaFF/MI). The present studies were undertaken to determine whether loss of activity can be attributed to selective loss of efficiency at one or both of …
The Appearance, Apparent Speed, And Removal Of Optical Effects For Relativistically Moving Objects, Robert J. Deissler
The Appearance, Apparent Speed, And Removal Of Optical Effects For Relativistically Moving Objects, Robert J. Deissler
Robert J. Deissler
Because various parts of an object are different distances from an observer, and light takes a finite time to reach the observer, the appearance of a relativistically moving object will be very different from that given by the Lorentz contraction. We derive equations that can be applied to a photographic image so that the Lorentz contraction can still be observed. We also give equations that quantify the apparent deformation of the object and plots that show the apparent speed of the object as a function of time. In particular, as an object approaches, its apparent speed can be much greater …

Color Mixing In The Metering Zone Of A Single Screw Extruder: Numerical Simulations And Experimental Validation, Kirill Alemaskin, Ica Manas Zloczower, Miron Kaufman
Physics Faculty Publications
We present numerical simulations for an acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS) resin extrusion in an industrial conventional single-screw extruder. Based upon the flow field patterns obtained in the simulations, a particle tracking procedure was employed to obtain information about the spatial distribution of particle tracers of two colors. Results of the simulation were compared with experimental data obtained under similar extrusion conditions. To evaluate the degree of color mixing and color homogeneity for the system, we employ a specific index calculated based upon the Shannon entropy for two species populations.
Synthesis And Characterization Of Azole Isoflavone Inhibitors Of Aromatase, John C. Hackett, Young Woo Kim, Bin Su, Robert W. Brueggemeier
Synthesis And Characterization Of Azole Isoflavone Inhibitors Of Aromatase, John C. Hackett, Young Woo Kim, Bin Su, Robert W. Brueggemeier
Chemistry Faculty Publications
The synthesis and biological evaluation of a series of 2-azole and 2-thioazole isoflavones as potential aromatase inhibitors are described. Differences in inhibitory activity of triazole and imidazole inhibitors are rationalized with density functional theory to expose a key difference in the electronic structure of these molecules. In addition, difference binding spectra of inhibitors to immunoaffinity-purified aromatase produces classical Type II spectra consistent with coordination of the nitrogen lone pair electrons to the aromatase P450 heme.

Double-Stranded Rna-Dependent Protein Kinase (Pkr) Is Downregulated By Phorbol Ester, Yan Zhou, Barbara I. Chase, Mark Whitmore, Bryan R.G. Williams, Aimin Zhou
Chemistry Faculty Publications
The double-stranded RNA-dependent protein kinase (PKR) is one of the key mediators of interferon (IFN) action against certain viruses. PKR also plays an important role in signal transduction and immunomodulation. Understanding the regulation of PKR activity is important for the use of PKR as a tool to discover and develop novel therapeutics for viral infections, cancer and immune dysfunction. We found that phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), a potent activator of protein kinase C (PKC), decreased the level of autophosphorylated PKR in a dose- and time-dependent manner in IFN-treated mouse fibroblast cells. Polyinosinic–polycytidylic acid (poly I:C) treatment enhanced the activity of …

A Modular Integer Gcd Algorithm, Kenneth Weber, Vilmar Trevisan, Luiz Felipe Martins
Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications
This paper describes the first algorithm to compute the greatest common divisor (GCD) of two n-bit integers using a modular representation for intermediate values U, V and also for the result. It is based on a reduction step, similar to one used in the accelerated algorithm [T. Jebelean, A generalization of the binary GCD algorithm, in: ISSAC '93: International Symposium on Symbolic and Algebraic Computation, Kiev, Ukraine, 1993, pp. 111–116; K. Weber, The accelerated integer GCD algorithm, ACM Trans. Math. Softw. 21 (1995) 111–122] when U and V are close to the same size, that replaces U by (U-bV)/p, where …
A Regularized And Renormalized Electrostatic Coupling Hamiltonian For Hybrid Quantum-Mechanical–Molecular-Mechanical Calculations, Pradip K. Biswas, Valentin Gogonea
A Regularized And Renormalized Electrostatic Coupling Hamiltonian For Hybrid Quantum-Mechanical–Molecular-Mechanical Calculations, Pradip K. Biswas, Valentin Gogonea
Chemistry Faculty Publications
We describe a regularized and renormalized electrostatic coupling Hamiltonian for hybrid quantum-mechanical (QM)–molecular-mechanical (MM) calculations. To remedy the nonphysical QM/MM Coulomb interaction at short distances arising from a point electrostatic potential (ESP) charge of the MM atom and also to accommodate the effect of polarized MM atom in the coupling Hamiltonian, we propose a partial-wave expansion of the ESP charge and describe the effect of a s-wave expansion, extended over the covalent radius rc, of the MM atom. The resulting potential describes that, at short distances, large scale cancellation of Coulomb interaction arises intrinsically from the localized expansion of the …

Potential Energy Surface Of The Reaction Of Imidazole With Peroxynitrite: Density Functional Theory Study, Valentin Gogonea
Chemistry Faculty Publications
This article presents a theoretical investigation of the reaction mechanism of imidazole nitration by peroxynitrite using density functional theory calculations. Understanding this reaction mechanism will help in elucidating the mechanism of guanine nitration by peroxynitrite, which is one of the assumed chemical pathways for damaging DNA in cells. This work focuses on the analysis of the potential energy surface (PES) for this reaction in the gas phase. Calculations were carried out using Hartree–Fock (HF) and density functional theory (DFT) Hamiltonians with double-zeta basis sets ranging from 6-31G(d) to 6-31++G(d,p), and the triple-zeta basis set 6-311G(d). The computational results reveal that …

320-Channel Dual Phase Lock-In Optical Spectrometer, Petru S. Fodor, S. Rothenberger, J. Levy
Physics Faculty Publications
The development of a multiple-channel lock-in optical spectrometer (LIOS) is presented, which enables parallel phase-sensitive detection at the output of an optical spectrometer. The light intensity from a spectrally broad source is modulated at the reference frequency, and focused into a high-resolution imaging spectrometer. The height at which the light enters the spectrometer is controlled by an acousto-optic deflector, and the height information is preserved at the output focal plane. A two-dimensional InGaAs focal plane array collects light that has been dispersed in wavelength along the horizontal direction, and in time along the vertical direction. The data is demodulated using …
Entropic Analysis Of Color Homogeneity, Kirill Alemaskin, Ica Manas Zloczower, Miron Kaufman
Entropic Analysis Of Color Homogeneity, Kirill Alemaskin, Ica Manas Zloczower, Miron Kaufman
Physics Faculty Publications
We propose an entropic measure to assess color homogeneity as well as deviations from a standard/ideal color. We illustrate the concept by analyzing samples obtained in a single screw extruder by mixing blue and yellow polymer pellets. Alternatively the proposed technique can be employed to assess the efficiency and degree of distributive mixing attained in polymer processing equipment.
Toric Residue And Combinatorial Degree, Ivan Soprunov
Toric Residue And Combinatorial Degree, Ivan Soprunov
Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications
Consider an -dimensional projective toric variety defined by a convex lattice polytope . David Cox introduced the toric residue map given by a collection of divisors on . In the case when the are -invariant divisors whose sum is , the toric residue map is the multiplication by an integer number. We show that this number is the degree of a certain map from the boundary of the polytope to the boundary of a simplex. This degree can be computed combinatorially. We also study radical monomial ideals of the homogeneous coordinate ring of . We give a necessary and sufficient …
Combinatorial Construction Of Toric Residues, Amit Khetan, Ivan Soprunov
Combinatorial Construction Of Toric Residues, Amit Khetan, Ivan Soprunov
Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications
In this paper we investigate the problem of finding an explicit element whose toric residue is equal to one. Such an element is shown to exist if and only if the associated polytopes are essential. We reduce the problem to finding a collection of partitions of the lattice points in the polytopes satisfying a certain combinatorial property. We use this description to solve the problem when n=2 and for any n when the polytopes of the divisors share a complete flag of faces. The latter generalizes earlier results when the divisors were all ample

Cyclic Maps In Rational Homotopy Theory, Gregory Lupton, Sam Smith
Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications
The notion of a cyclic map g:A→X is a natural generalization of a Gottlieb element in π n (X). We investigate cyclic maps from a rational homotopy theory point of view. We show a number of results for rationalized cyclic maps which generalize well-known results on the rationalized Gottlieb groups.
Homotopy Actions, Cyclic Maps And Their Duals, Martin Arkowitz, Gregory Lupton
Homotopy Actions, Cyclic Maps And Their Duals, Martin Arkowitz, Gregory Lupton
Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications
An action of A on X is a map F: AxX to X such that F|_X = id: X to X. The restriction F|_A: A to X of an action is called a cyclic map. Special cases of these notions include group actions and the Gottlieb groups of a space, each of which has been studied extensively. We prove some general results about actions and their Eckmann-Hilton duals. For instance, we classify the actions on an H-space that are compatible with the H-structure. As a corollary, we prove that if any two actions F and F' of A on X …

Free And Semi-Inert Cell Attachments, Peter Bubenik
Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications
Let Y be the space obtained by attaching a finite-type wedge of cells to a simply-connected, finite-type CW-complex. We introduce the free and semi-inert conditions on the attaching map which broadly generalize the previously-studied inert condition. Under these conditions we determine H (QY; R) as an R-module and as an R-algebra, respectively. Under a further condition we show that H. (QY; R) is generated by Hurewicz images. As an example we study an infinite family of spaces constructed using only semi-inert cell attachments.
