The Routledge International Handbook of Globalization Studies (Routledge International Handbooks)

The Routledge International Handbook of Globalization experiences bargains scholars transparent and expert chapters at the background of globalization and key theories that experience thought of the explanations and effects of the globalization technique. There are substantial sections taking a look at demographic, monetary, technological, social and cultural adjustments in globalization.

The Chern Symposium 1979: Proceedings of the International Symposium on Differential Geometry in honor of S.-S. Chern, held in Berkeley, California, June 1979

This quantity attests to the power of differential geometry because it probes deeper into its inner constitution and explores ever widening connections with different matters in arithmetic and physics. To so much folks Professor S. S. Chern is glossy differential geometry, and we, his scholars, are thankful to him for best us to this fertile panorama.

Surgical thyroidectomy of two weeks duration dramatically increased both SP and SK content. Thi s adenohypophyseal increase was reversed if thyroi dectomi zed rats were treated with T3 for 2 weeks. These data indicate that thyroid hormone status can regulate both SP and SK content within the anterior pituitary.

CDNA SEQUENCE OF HUMAN s-PREPROTACHYKININ Some human carcinoid tumours have been shown to contain and secrete large amounts of the tachykinins SP, NkA and NpK and may, therefore, provide a rich source of PPT mRNA. We have established the cDNA sequence of human s-PPT using, as the source of mRNA, a metastatic deposit from a laryngeal carcinoid tumour [4]. The tumour caused hypersalivation and local pain in the patient, possibly as a consequence of ectopic SP production IS]. cDNA was synthesised from poly (A) RNA from tumour tissue and inserted into the plasmid pBR322 by standard procedures.
