Background Emulsification in aqueous media is not effective for the encapsulation of hydrophilic drugs. Peptides and proteins may deteriorate when exposed to aqueous-organic interfaces Neuropeptides are potent CNS neuromodulators and have many ...

Background Hyperlipidemia is a widespread condition that affects as many as one-third of adults and an increasing number of children in developed countries. Its pathogenesis mechanisms are only partly understood. The small non-coding microRNAs ...

 Background Toll-like receptors (TLRs) have been implicated in several autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, including cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, atherosclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease, and chronic neuropathic pain. Currently, ...

Background Current 3D printing processes for ceramic 3D structures is conducted mainly by printing an object, which is composed of a ceramic powder and an organic binder, then sintering the body at a high temperature (>1000 °C). The ...

Fast and simple editing of special video effects  Motion computation in video editing involves warping or manipulations of time in order to control the chronological time of events, including delaying or slowing down some activities while ...

 Background A bipolar disorder is a form of a depressive disease that characteristically involves cycles of depression and elation or mania. The disorder is often a chronic recurring condition deteriorating one’s quality of life. Valnoctamide ...

Application A number of overlapping images of a scene are initially recorded by a camera to form a mosaic. Mosaic images constitute a panoramic view around the optical axis. Mosaic images from aerial cameras translate parallel to the scene and ...

Application Social network technologies (SNT) and online Social Network Sites (SNS) are immensely popular and have become an integral part of people's everyday functioning and social lives worldwide, and especially among adolescents. The ...

Background X-ray computed tomography (CT) instruments are among the most available, efficient and cost-effective imaging modalities in hospitals. The field of CT molecular imaging agents is emerging relying mainly on detection of gold and ...

  Our Innovation   Based on a provocative working hypothesis, we most probably identified the molecular origin of insulin resistance (IR). Systemic IR is induced via post-translational modification (PTM) of liver key regulatory proteins. We ...

Dr. Sharon Merims, Hadassah Medical Center   Background Many of the anti-neoplastic tyrosine kinase inhibitors are associated with prominent and sometimes dose-limiting dermatologic complications. Of severe clinical implication are the specific ...

Background Natural killer (NK) cells are innate effector lymphocytes that efficiently kill tumor cells without prior stimulation. NK are crucial first responders to tumor transformation and viral, bacterial, or fungal infections. They are also ...

Background The current commercial photo-initiators are unsuitable for radical-polymerization of adhesive coatings and 2&3D printing due to their poor water solubility, low efficiency and restricted suitability to the emerging LED ...

Our Innovation An interactive web-based map based on innovative digital-mapping and information visualization technologies designed to explore and experience Jewish cultures in their historical development from a perspective of time and ...

Background Emulsification in aqueous media is not effective for the encapsulation of hydrophilic drugs. Peptides and proteins may deteriorate when exposed to aqueous-organic interfaces Neuropeptides are potent CNS neuromodulators and have many ...

Category Life Sciences and Bio Technology    Keywords Chemotherapy, Drug resistance * The project is conducted in collaboration with Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. Application Cells with multidrug resistance (MDR) due to aberrant ...

Application Middleboxes play a major role in Software Defined Networks (SDN) as forwarding compressed packets is not enough to meet operators demands in terms of security, QoS/QoE provisioning and load balancing. In current systems, Deep Packet ...

Our Innovation   The finding by HUJI researchers uncovers a novel structure of an outer mitochondrial membrane [Fe-S] protein (mitoNEET) determined by X-ray crystallography (Fig 1)  MitoNEET is an outer mitochondrial membrane protein that ...

  Vibrant, Efficient, Low-Cost Emitters:   Background Perovskite nanoparticles are revolutionizing display technologies by down-converting some of the light from the blue LED backlight to narrow-band red and green components which results in ...

  Background        Very small tumors (<5mm) in gastrointestinal GI tract can hardly be detected by external means (CT, MRI, etc.) or ultrasound endoscopic examination. Stomach and liver cancers as well as pancreas are deadliest diseases ...
