Colorectal tumor vascularity: quantitative assessment with multidetector CT--do tumor perfusion measurements reflect angiogenesis?
(2008)To establish the relationships between quantitative perfusion computed tomography (CT) parameters-specifically, primary tumor blood flow, blood volume, transit time, and permeability surface-area product-and immunohistologic ... -
Quantitative assessment of colorectal cancer tumor vascular parameters by using perfusion CT: influence of tumor region of interest
(2008)To prospectively determine whether position and size of tumor region of interest (ROI) influence estimates of colorectal cancer vascular parameters at computed tomography (CT). -
Cleaning house: the courtly and the popular in 'The Merry Wives of Windsor’
(2010)This paper explores the controversy as to whether The Merry Wives of Windsor is a celebration of royal and aristocratic power and of an imagined national community, or a suburban comedy whose viewpoint is that of the ... -

Genetic regulatory network models of biological clocks : evolutionary history matters
(2008)We study the evolvability and dynamics of artificial genetic regulatory networks (GRNs), as active control systems, realizing simple models of biological clocks that have evolved to respond to periodic environmental stimuli ... -
Stability of radiative relativistic shocks to global oscillations
(2008-09)Thermally emitting, radiative, Newtonian shocks exhibit a global oscillatory instability. The luminosity variations that accompany such oscillations raise the possibility that, if relativistic shocks that emit nonthermal ... -
Systemic delivery of morpholino oligonucleotide restores dystrophin expression bodywide and improves dystrophic pathology
(2006)For the majority of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) mutations, antisense oligonucleotide (AON)-mediated exon skipping has the potential to restore a functional protein. Here we show that weekly intravenous injections of ... -
Functional amounts of dystrophin produced by skipping the mutated exon in the mdx dystrophic mouse
(2003)As a target for gene therapy, Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) presents many obstacles but also an unparalleled prospect for correction by alternative splicing. The majority of mutations in the dystrophin gene occur in ... -
