Pharmacognostic Investigations On Turnera ulmifolia (2008)

Kumar, S, Sharma, A

Turnera ulmifolia Linn. has been traditionally used for the treatment of various ailments such as rheumatism, vertigo, dysmenorrhea and dysentery. Microscopically, leaf of T. ulmifolia showed the...

Effect of laser surface treatment on corrosion and wear resistance of ACM720 Mg alloy (2008)

Mondal, AK, Kumar, S, Blawert, C, Dahotre, Narendra B

A creep resistant Mg alloy ACM720 was subjected to laser surface treatment using Nd:YAG laser equipped with a fiber optics beam delivery system in argon atmosphere. This treatment was found to be...

Ischemic acidosis causes apoptosis in coronary endothelial cells through activation of caspase-12 (2007)

Kumar, S., Kasseckert, S., Kostin, S., Abdallah, Y., Schafer, C., Kaminski, A., ...

OBJECTIVE: Myocardial ischemia has been shown to induce apoptosis of endothelial cells (EC). However, the mechanism of this endothelial injury is still poorly understood. To analyse the signaling...

Comparison of the relation between renal impairment, angiographic coronary artery disease, and long-term mortality in women versus men (2006)

Chen, R., Kumar, S., Timmis, A., Feder, G., Yaqoob, M.M., Hemingway, H.

Mild to moderate renal impairment has recently been associated with increased cardiovascular mortality. However, gender differences in the association of mild to moderate renal impairment with the...

Adsorption of bisphosphonate onto hydroxyapatite using a novel co-precipitation technique for bone growth enhancement (2006)

McLeod, K, Anderson, GI, Dutta, NK, Smart, RS, Voelcker, NH, Sekel, R, ...

Premature bone resorption and remodeling by osteoclasts can limit the longevity of implant fixation and recovery time. Orally administered bisphosphonates (BPs) have been used to inhibit osteoclast...

XPS and bioactivity study of the bisphosphonate pamidronate adsorbed onto plasma sprayed hydroxyapatite coatings (2006)

McLeod, K, Kumar, S, Smart, RSC, Dutta, N, Voelcker, NH, Anderson, GI, ...

This paper reports the use of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) to investigate bisphosphonate (BP) adsorption onto plasma sprayed hydroxyapatite (HA) coatings commonly used for orthopaedic...

Cost Avoidance vs. Utility Bill Accounting - Explaining the Discrepancy Between Guaranteed Savings in ESPC Projects and Utility Bills (2005)

Kumar, S., Sartor, D.

Federal agencies often ask if Energy Savings Performance Contracts (ESPCs) result in the energy and cost savings projected during the project development phase. After investing in ESPCs, federal...

The function of the Drosophila caspase DRONC in cell death and development (2005)

Mills, K. A., Daish, Tasman James, Kumar, S.

dronc, the only apical caspase in Drosophila is thought to be essential and non-redundant for apoptosis. Recent analyses of several independently derived dronc mutants have demonstrated that DRONC is...

The apical caspase dronc governs programmed and unprogrammed cell death in Drosophila (2004)

Chew, S. K., Akdemir, F., Chen, P., Lu, W-J., Mills, K. A., Daish, Tasman James, ...

Among the seven caspases encoded in the fly genome, only dronc contains a caspase recruitment domain. To assess the function of this gene in development, we produced a null mutation in dronc. Animals...

Ecdysone receptor directly binds the promoter of the Drosophila caspase dronc, regulating its expression in specific tissues (2004)

Cakouros, D., Daish, Tasman James, Kumar, S.

The steroid hormone ecdysone regulates moulting, cell death, and differentiation during insect development. Ecdysone mediates its biological effects by either direct activation of gene transcription...

Regulation of neuronal voltage-gated sodium channels by the ubiquitin-protein ligases Nedd4 and Nedd4-2 (2004)

Fotia, A. B., Ekberg, J., Adams, D. J., Cook, D. I., Poronnik, P., Kumar, S.

Nedd4 and Nedd4-2 are ubiquitin-protein ligases known to regulate a number of membrane proteins including receptors and ion transporters. Regulation of the epithelial Na+ channel by Nedd4 and Nedd4-2...

Distinct promoter regions regulate spatial and temporal expression of the Drosophila caspase dronc (2003)

Daish, Tasman James, Cakouros, D., Kumar, S.

DRONC is an apical Drosophila caspase essential for programmed cell death during fly development. During metamorphosis, dronc gene expression is regulated by the steroid hormone ecdysone, which also...

The role of individual Nedd4-2 (KIAA0439) WW domains in binding and regulating epithelial sodium channels (2002)

Fotia, A. B., Dinudom, A., Shearwin, Keith Edward, Koch, J., Korbmacher, C., Cook, D. I., ...

The amiloride-sensitive epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) is essential for fluid and electrolyte homeostasis. ENaC consists of α, β, and γ subunits, each of which contains a PPxY motif that...

The late-time development of the Richtmyer–Meshkov instability (2000)

Prasad, J. K., Rasheed, A., Kumar, S., Sturtevant, B.

Measurements have been made of the growth by the Richtmyer–Meshkov instability of nominally single-scale perturbations on an air/sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) interface in a large shock tube. An...
