Corydalis yanhusuo rhizoma extract reduces infarct size and improves heart function during myocardial ischemia/reperfusion by inhibiting apoptosis in rats.

The aim of the present investigation was to evaluate the effect of an extract from Corydalis yanhusuo W.T., a Chinese herbal medicine, on ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and to determine the mechanism(s) involved.

[Screening of dominant epitopes of antigens related to antibodies in the sera of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma].

Background & Objective: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is closely related to nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Many kinds of methods can be used to examine antibodies in NPC patients sera. This study was to screen the dominant epitopes from random peptide libraries (RPLs) displayed on phage using the EBV-related antibodies purified from the sera of NPC patients, and find new antigens at the epitope level.

Note on the S-matrix propagation algorithm.

A set of full-matrix recursion formulas for the W --> S variant of the S-matrix algorithm is derived, which includes the recent results of some other authors as a subset. In addition, a special type of symmetry that is often found in the structure of coefficient matrices (W matrices) that appear in boundary-matching conditions is identified and fully exploited for the purpose of increasing computation efficiency. Two tables of floating-point operation (flop) counts for both the new W --> S variant and the old W --> t --> S variant of the S-matrix algorithm are given.
