Kamijo, R., Shapiro, D., Le, J., Huang, S., Aguet, M., Vilcek, J.

Availability of mice with a targeted disruption of the interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) receptor gene (IFN-gamma R0/0 mice) made it possible to examine parameters of macrophage activation in the absence...

Generation of nitric oxide and clearance of interferon-gamma after BCG infection are impaired in mice that lack the interferon-gamma receptor (2007)

Kamijo, R., Gerecitano, J., Shapiro, D., Green, S. J., Aguet, M., Le, J., ...

Mice with a targeted deletion of either the interferon (IFN)-gamma gene or the IFN-gamma receptor gene (IFN-gamma R(0/0) mice) fail to survive infection with the Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) strain...

Dose, exposure time, and resolution in Serial X-ray Crystallography (2007)

Starodub, D., Rez, P., Hembree, G., Howells, M., Shapiro, D., Chapman, H. N., ...

The resolution of X-ray diffraction microscopy is limited by the maximum dose that can be delivered prior to sample damage. In the proposed Serial Crystallography method, the damage problem is...

Droplet beams for serial crystallography of proteins (2007)

Weierstall, U., Doak, R. B., Spence, J. C. H., Starodub, D., Shapiro, D., Kennedy, P., ...

Serial diffraction of proteins requires an injection method to deliver protein molecules - preferably uncharged, fully hydrated, spatially oriented, and with high flux - into the crossed beams of an...

Hemodynamic profile, compensation deficit, and ambulatory blood pressure (2006)

Ottaviani, C, Shapiro, D, Goldstein, I B, James, J E, Weiss, R

This study hypothesized that physiologically grounded patterns of hemodynamic profile and compensation deficit would be superior to traditional blood pressure reactivity in the prediction of...

Progress in Three-Dimensional Coherent X-Ray Diffraction Imaging (2005)

Marchesini, S., Chapman, H. N., Barty, A., Noy, A., Hau-Riege, S. P., Kinney, J. M., ...

The Fourier inversion of phased coherent diffraction patterns offers images without the resolution and depth-of-focus limitations of lens-based tomographic systems. We report on our recent...

High-resolution ab initio three-dimensional X-ray diffraction microscopy (2005)

Chapman, H. N., Barty, A., Marchesini, S., Noy, A., Cui, C., Howells, M. R., ...

Coherent X-ray diffraction microscopy is a method of imaging non-periodic isolated objects at resolutions only limited, in principle, by the largest scattering angles recorded. We demonstrate X-ray...

Landscapes of practice: Bricolage as a method for situated design. (2001)

Buscher, M., Gill, S., Mogensen, P., Shapiro, D.

This paper proposes a `bricolage' approach to designing systems forcooperative work. This involves users, participatory designers andethnographers in a continuing cycle of design and revised work...

Logic of Knowledge With Justi (2001)

S. Artemov, E. Kazakov, D. Shapiro

this paper makes a meaningful step toward to developing such a system

A Behavioral and Physiological Approach to the Study of Group Interaction. (1998)

Shapiro,D., Leiderman,P. H.

This paper describes an attempt to establish methods for the study of social behavior utilizing both behavioral and physiological techniques. The behavioral techniques stem from previous research in...

Effects of alterations in cellular iron on biosynthesis of the transferrin receptor in K562 cells.

Rao, K K, Shapiro, D, Mattia, E, Bridges, K, Klausner, R

Treatment of K562 cells, a human erythroleukemia cell line, with desferrioxamine raised the levels of the receptor for transferrin (Tf) two- to threefold over that of the control cells. The levels of...

Triacylglycerol biosynthesis in the adipose tissue of the obese-hyperglycaemic mouse.

Jamdar, S C, Shapiro, D, Fallon, H J

Obesity in obese-hyperglycaemic mouse is associated with an increase in number and size of adipocytes. Adipocytes from the obese mouse showed increased incorporation of [14C]acetate and[14C]glucose...
