Relaxation dispersion profiles, obtained by measuring R1ρ as a function of ωe, potentially yield kex, pA, pB, and Δω; however, if kinetics approach the fast-exchange limit (kex ≫ Δω), then ωAωB/ωe → ωe and only pA pBΔω and kex can be determined.
PD in humans is therefore thought to be a function of genetic predisposition, potentially associated with how efficiently an individual is able to metabolize dopamine-related neurotoxins.
Each V j is a function of some or potentially all of the X i.
Simple, smaller toxins have a reduced mutational target relative to larger proteins as a function of sequence length, potentially reducing the ability to evolve effective counterdefenses to resistance development in frequently envenomed prey [ 6, 7] and predators [ 1] where more complex venoms would be advantageous.
Survival results in this series meet or exceed the survival reported in the original RTOG 85 01 trial, again likely a function of patient selection and also of potentially superior staging of patients in this series, using EUS, more modern CT scan imaging, and PET scan staging.
Moreover, the easily prepared PGA PPA block copolypeptide showed pH-dependent properties due to changes in the PGA ionization state as a function of pH; this characteristic could potentially be exploited for drug delivery applications.
Glycemic level and variability in TGC are a function of variability in insulin sensitivity, potentially resulting from the level and evolution of the stress response [8], and are independently associated with mortality [9 12].
A PMRN describes probability of maturation as a function of age and size, and potentially other explanatory variables (Heino et al. 2002).
Such shape differences are potentially a function of two inextricable factors, size and retinal location (retinal location varies as one varies size).
The probabilistic maturation reaction norm (PMRN) describes the 50% probability of maturation as a function of age and size (and potentially other traits affecting maturation) while controlling for the effect of growth on maturation.
