Fixed points of finite groups acting on generalised Thompson groups
No full textWe study centralisers of finite order automorphisms of the generalised Thompson groups Fn, ? and conjugacy classes of finite sub- groups in finite extensions of Fn, ?. In particular we show that centralisers of finite automorphisms in Fn, ? are either of type FP? or not finitely generated. As an application we deduce the following result about the Bredon type of such finite extensions: any finite extension of Fn, ?, where the elements of finite order act on Fn, ? via conjugation with piecewise-linear homeomorphisms, is of type Bredon F?. In particular finite extensions of F = F2,? are of type Bredon F?

Gender and body image
No full textThat gender has a considerable impact on people’s body image may seem obvious based on the considerable attention paid to women’s and men’s bodies in popular culture (Thompson, Heinberg, Altabe, & Tantleff-Dunn, 1999; Wolf, 1991)
Cohomological finiteness properties of the Brin-Thompson-higman groups 2V and 3V
No full textWe show that Brin's generalisations 2V and 3V of the Thompson-Higman group V are of type FP_\infty. Our methods also give a new proof that both groups are finitely presented
Depolarization and decreased surface expression of K+ channels contribute to NSAID-inhibition of intestinal restitution
No full textNon-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) contribute to gastrointestinal ulcer formation by inhibiting epithelial cell migration and mucosal restitution; however, the drug-affected signaling pathways are poorly defined. We investigated whether NSAID inhibition of intestinal epithelial migration is associated with depletion of intracellular polyamines, depolarization of membrane potential (Em) and altered surface expression of K+ channels. Epithelial cell migration in response to the wounding of confluent IEC-6 and IEC-Cdx2 monolayers was reduced by indomethacin (100μM), phenylbutazone (100μM) and NS-398 (100μM) but not by SC-560 (1μM). NSAID-inhibition of intestinal cell migration was not associated with depletion of intracellular polyamines. Treatment of IEC-6 and IEC-Cdx2 cells with indomethacin, phenylbutazone and NS-398 induced significant depolarization of Em, whereas treatment with SC-560 had no effect on Em. The Em of IEC-Cdx2 cells was: −38.5±1.8mV under control conditions; −35.9±1.6mV after treatment with SC-560; −18.8±1.2mV after treatment with indomethacin; and −23.7±1.4mV after treatment with NS-398. Whereas SC-560 had no significant effects on the total cellular expression of Kv1.4 channel protein, indomethacin and NS-398 decreased not only the total cellular expression of Kv1.4, but also the cell surface expression of both Kv1.4 and Kv1.6 channel subunits in IEC-Cdx2. Both Kv1.4 and Kv1.6 channel proteins were immunoprecipitated by Kv1.4 antibody from IEC-Cdx2 lysates, indicating that these subunits co-assemble to form heteromeric Kv channels. These results suggest that NSAID inhibition of epithelial cell migration is independent of polyamine-depletion, and is associated with depolarization of Em and decreased surface expression of heteromeric Kv1 channels.ID: S0006295207001931; M3: Article; Accession Number: S0006295207001931; Author: L.C.

No full textCitation: Thompson, R. C. The fifty-ninth Congress, its organization, personnel, and acts. Senior thesis, Kansas State Agricultural College, 1908.Introduction: The Fifty-ninth Congress began with a special session of the Senate on March 4, 1905, immediately after the adjournment of the Fifty-Eighth Congress. It is customary for the outgoing President to issue a call for a special session of the Senate to assemble on the day of the inauguration of the President
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
