Aggressive and Chronic Periodontitis Correlate with Distinct Cellular Sources of Key Immunoregulatory Cytokines
We aimed to investigate the expression of adhesion molecules and the source of proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines in circulating mononuclear cells from patients with CP and AP.

Alpha 6 Beta 2*and Alpha 4 Beta 2*Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors as Drug Targets for Parkinson’s Disease
Here we review nAChRs with particular emphasis on the subtypes that contribute to basal ganglia function. Accumulating evidence suggests that drugs targeting α6β2* and α4β2* nAChR may prove useful in…

Utilization of Services in a Randomized Trial Testing Phone- and Web-Based Interventions for Smoking Cessation
No prior research, to our knowledge, has systematically compared the effectiveness of these three treatment modalities in a randomized trial.

How to Serve Soup: Interleaving Demonstration and Assisted Editing to Support Non-Programmers
The Adept Task Learning system is an end-user programming environment that combines programming by demonstration and direct manipulation to support customization by non-programmers.

Investigating Collaborative Innovation in a Virtual World Task
In this paper we introduce a framework of innovation based on behaviours identified as being conducive to collaborative innovation. We also report on a study of a task designed to…

Preliminary Steps Towards a Knowledge Factory Process
In this demo/poster session, we will demonstrate the biology knowledge base created using AURA, the electronic textbook application Inquire, and discuss the knowledge engineering process we used to construct the…

Production of the No Photofragment in the Desorption of Rdx and Hmx from Surfaces
We investigate the degree of photofragmentation into NO resulting from the irradiation of the explosives RDX and HMX coated on a variety of surfaces.

Automated Formal Verification of the TTEthernet Synchronization Quality
In this paper, we present an automated proof of the TTEthernet clock-synchronization algorithm that is based on the SAL model checker.

Cerebral Blood Flow in Posterior Cortical Nodes of the Default Mode Network Decreases with Task Engagement But Remains Higher Than in Most Brain Regions
We employed 3D arterial spin labeling imaging to examine regional cerebral blood flow (CBF) during rest, a spatial working memory task, and a second rest.

Patent Ductus Arteriosus Ligation Alters Pulmonary Gene Expression in Preterm Baboons
Ibuprofen-induced ductus closure improves pulmonary mechanics and increases alveolar surface area in premature baboons compared with baboons with a persistent patent ductus arteriosus (PDA).
