Changes in microbial community composition in the lung of patients suffering from moderate to severe COPD have been well documented.However, knowledge about specific microbiome structures in the human lung associated with CT defined abnormalities is limited.Bacterial community composition derived from brush samples from lungs of 16 patients sufferi
Development, Verification and Assessment of a Laser Profilometer and Analysis Algorithm for Microtexture Assessment of Runway Surfaces
Runway surface friction is critically important to safe aircraft operations and mostly depends on the surface texture, which provides grip in the presence of contamination and directly affects the friction coefficient in general.Microtexture assessment is the most challenging part of texture assessment since there is no standardised pavement microt
M.P.Drahomanov about freedom of conscience and social functionality of religion
Our research is based on a rather large "library" of various works by M.Drahomanov, which contains his views on religion.Among them: Paradise and Progress, From the History of Relations Between Church and State in Western Europe, Faith and Public Affairs, Fight for Spiritual Power and Freedom of Conscience in the 16th - 17th Centuries, , "Church an

BTB-Zinc Finger Oncogenes Are Required for Ras and Notch-Driven Tumorigenesis in Drosophila.
During tumorigenesis, pathways that promote the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) can both facilitate metastasis and endow tumor cells with cancer stem cell properties.To gain a greater understanding of how these properties are interlinked in cancers we used Drosophila epithelial tumor models, which are driven by orthologues of human oncog
