Abstract:
Systems and methods for predicting virality of a content item are disclosed. A method includes: receiving a social network structure; identifying communities within the social network structure, where communities are identified as dense subnetworks in the social network structure; receiving social network content that includes one or more content items; and identifying one or more content items that are predicted to become viral based on utilization of the content items between different communities in the social network structure.
Abstract:
The disclosure is directed to methods of identifying compounds that modulate murine double-minute 2. More particularly, the disclosure is directed to methods of identifying compounds that modulate murine double-minute 2 neddylation activity.
Abstract:
In a drift tube partitioned into a plurality of cascaded drift tube segments each followed by an ion elimination region, a method of separating ions as a function of ion mobility includes repeatedly, and alternating between at least two different time durations, establishing electric drift fields in the drift tube segments and in some of the ion elimination regions while establishing electric repulsive fields in others of the ion elimination regions such that ions having a predefined mobility or range of mobilities are transmitted through the drift tube at one or more frequencies which include one or more overtones of a fundamental frequency at which ions having the predefined mobility or range of mobilities are transmitted through the drift tube with the electric drift fields and electric repulsive fields repeatedly established with uniform time durations.
Abstract:
The present invention provides uses of TRPV4 antagonists in the treatment or prevention of hydrocephalus symptoms, also known as hydrocephaly, including hydrocephalus as a result of any structural defect, any metabolic defect, any injury (direct force to the head, indirect force to the head, shock waves, pressure changes, etc.), any insult (microbial, chemical, toxins, allergic reactions or other inflammatory process, or other pathology, eg. cancer, benign tumor, etc.). Related materials and methods are also provided herein.

Abstract:
The present invention discloses a silica particle having a diameter less than or equal to 2 μη, wherein the particle is spherical and comprises interconnected pores having a diameter in the range from 50 nm to 300 nm. The silica particle is preferably produced by spray pyrolysis (=spray drying) of a silica colloid. In the production process, porosity is introduced by means of an inorganic salt, such as NaCl, KCI, LiCl, NaNO3 or Ll NO3, which serves as a pore template. The silica particle may further be functionalized with proteins, peptides, nucleic acids, polysaccharides and proteoglycans, preferably concanavalin A or avidin. The present invention further discloses the use of the silica particle in chromatography, in particular in affinity chromatography.
