The role of polyamines in growth inhibition induced by Momordica charantia and Gynura procumbens in human lung adenocarcinoma cells, A549 by AhmadSujangi, Nurhikmah, Abdullah, Nor Zamzila, Abdul Ghani, Radiah

“…Hence, this research aimed to determine the polyamine content of selected local plants, Momordica charantia and Gynura procumbens, by using High Performance Liquid Chromatographic (HPLC) analysis as well as conducting cytotoxicity study and growth inhibition study of the plant extracts against the human lung adenocarcinoma epithelial cell lines, A549. The polyamine content of M. charantia was found to be high (more than 200 nmol/g/mol) while G. procumbens contained low level of polyamine (less than 100 nmol/g/ml). …”

Tunable spin-orbit-coupled Bose-Einstein condensates in deep optical lattices by Salerno, Mario, Abdullaev, Fatkhulla Kh., Gammal, A, Tomio, Lauro

“…In particular, we show that extremal curves (ground and highest excited states) of the linear spectrum are continuous piecewise functions (together with their derivatives) of α, which consist of a finite number of decreasing band lobes joined by constant lines. This structure also remains in the presence of inter- and intra-species interactions, the nonlinearity mainly introducing a number of localized states in the band gaps. …”

Business cycles, interest rates and market volatility : estimation and forecasting using DSGE macroeconomic models under partial information by Perendija, Djordje V.

“…Consequently, the first part of this research project was aiming to improve the DSGE econometric methods by introducing novel solution for DSGE models with imperfect, partial information about the current values of deep variables and shocks, and apply this solution to imperfectly informed multiple agents with their different, inner-rationality models. Along these lines, this research also shows that DSGE models can be extended and suited to both, fitting and estimation of long-term yield curve, and to estimating with rich data sets by extending further its inner-mechanism. …”
