A comparative analysis of gamma and hadron families at the superhigh energies recorded in experiment Pamir

A comparative analysis of hadron and gamma families which have undergone the decascading procedure is made. Results are compared with different models of interactions. In hadron families with energies Summary E sub H sup gamma 20 TeV as well as in gamma families with energies Summary E sub gamma 70 TeV, increasing azimuthal anisotropy is observed

Nuclear Interactions Of Super High Energy Cosmic-rays Observed In Mountain Emulsion Chambers

Here we present a summary of joint discussions on the results of three mountain experiments with large-scale emulsion chambers, at Pamir, Mt. Fuji and Chacaltaya. Observations cover gamma quanta, hadrons and their clusters (called "families"). The following topics are covered, concerning the characteristics of nuclear interactions the energy region 1014-1016 eV: (i) rapid dissipation seen in atmospheric diffusion of high-energy cosmic-rays; (ii) multiplicity and Pt increase in produced pi-mesons in the fragmentation region; (iii) existence of large-Pt jets, (iv) extremely hadron-rich family of the Centauro type; (v) exotic phenomena in the extremely high energy region beyond 1016 eV. © 1981.1911125(1977) Acta Univ.

Роль метилирования генов микроРНК в различных молекулярно-биологических подтипах рака молочной железы

The methylation of CpG islands in the promoter regions of miRNA genes is an epigenetic modification that plays a decisive role in the breast cancer (BC) initiation and progression. The aim of the study was to investigate the frequency of 5 miRNA genes methylation (miRNA-9–1, miRNA-9–3, miRNA-34b/c, miRNA-193A, miRNA-129-2) in mammary epithelial neoplasms. Methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction (MS-PCR) was used to detect methylated genes. 62 patients took part in this study. It was found that the frequency of all 5 miRNAs genes methylation is significantly higher in tumor tissue than in the adjacent histologically unchanged mammary tissue. The authors also performed a correlation analysis and founded a relationship between the methylation rate of certain miRNA genes with some clinical and molecular characteristics of the tumor. This information on epigenetic disorders of BC complements the “molecular portrait” of the tumor and can be used to diagnose and assess the prognosis.Метилирование промоторных CpG-островков генов микроРНК (миРНК) при раке молочной железы (РМЖ) – эпигенетическая модификация, которая играет решающую роль в инициировании и прогрессировании заболевания. В данной статье представлено исследование, цель которого – изучить частоту метилирования пяти генов миРНК (миРНК-9–1, миРНК- 9–3, миРНК-34b/c, миРНК-193a, миРНК-129-2) в эпителиальных опухолях молочной железы. Для выявления метилированных генов использовался метод полимеразной цепной реакции, специфичной к метилированному аллелю (МС-ПЦР). В исследовании приняли участие 62 пациентки. Оказалось, что частота метилирования генов всех пяти миРНК достоверно выше в опухолевой ткани, чем в прилежащей гистологически неизмененной ткани молочных желез. Авторы также провели корреляционный анализ и выявили связь частоты метилирования определенных генов миРНК с некоторыми клиническими и молекулярными характеристиками опухоли. Полученные данные об эпигенетических нарушениях при РМЖ дополняют «молекулярный портрет» опухоли и являются перспективными маркерами для диагностики и оценки прогноза, а также могут стать мишенью для успешной терапии

Broadband quantum light on a fiber-optic platform: From biphotons and heralded single photons to bright squeezed vacuum

© 2019 Astro Ltd. Four-wave mixing (FWM) of ultrashort laser pulses in a highly nonlinear photonic-crystal fiber is shown to provide a multimodal source of broadband quantum states of light. In the regime of low pump powers, generation of two-photon states and heralded single photons with a bandwidth up to ≈6 THz is demonstrated within an FWM-sideband tunability range of ≈55 THz. In the modality of heralded single-photon generation, three-detector measurements of the conditional second-order correlation function reveal a strong antibunching in the signal-photon channel, with more than 99.2% of the signal counts identified as truly single-photon states. At high pump powers, two-detector signal-idler correlation function measurements indicate broadband bright squeezed vacuum generation
