IL-4 and IL-13 are prototypic Th2 cytokines that generate an “alternatively activated” phenotype in macrophages. We used high-density oligonucleotide microarrays to investigate the transcriptional profile induced in human monocytes by IL-13. After 8-h stimulation with IL-13, 142 genes were regulated …

The synthesis of total cellular proteins in Escherichia coli K12 was studied in batch culture following exposure of cells to low concentrations of monochlorophenol, pentachlorophenol and cadmium chloride. Changes in protein patterns were identified after pulse-chase labelling of proteins with [35S]methionine …

Oral flow was registered with a Rothenberg mask in two male subjects during the utterance of an /æ/ vowel embedded in a word at three intensity levels (soft, normal, and loud voice), and during the production of crescendos and decrescendos on the same vowel at three fundamental frequencies. Registered …
