Excess Peroxisomes Are Degraded by Autophagic Machinery in Mammals
Peroxisomes are degraded by autophagic machinery termed "pexophagy" in yeast; however, whether this is essential for peroxisome degradation in mammals remains unknown. Here we h...

Age Differences in the Use of Coping Mechanisms
Two cross-sectional studies are reported, which attempt to assess the influence of age on the use of 28 coping mechanisms. In the first study 255 men and women, aged 24 to 91 ye...
Unconventional Quasiparticle Lifetime in Graphite
The influence of electron-electron scattering on quasiparticle lifetimes in\ngraphite is calculated. In the limit when the Fermi surface is reduced to\nisolated points in the Br...
Independent prognostic significance of a nuclear proliferation antigen in diffuse large cell lymphomas as determined by the monoclonal antibody Ki-67
Abstract To assess the prognostic significance of the growth fraction in diffuse large cell lymphoma (DLCL), we studied 105 DLCL patients with the monoclonal antibody Ki-67 appl...
