Here, as VPPMC prestress impeded this effect, energy absorption through matrix cracking was more prominent within the control samples and this is believed to be a major contribution to the observed reduction in VPPMC performance relative to control samples at lower temperatures.
If PAK1 regulates NF-κB signaling through modulation of PPARγ, then PPARγ inhibition should impede the effect of PAK1 inhibition in reducing NF-κB transactivation.
In order to justify blocking a merger, the court said, the commission had to show that it would have a "direct and immediate effect" of creating or reinforcing an existing dominant position, and that this effect "lastingly impedes effective competition".
Our work presents a kinetic model for analyzing the effect of quasi-specific sites during the target DNA search process and provides insight into how much this effect impedes Egr-1's search process in the nucleus.
If drought does emerge as a more prominent facet of life on the Mississippi and navigation is impeded, the effect on national and even global commerce will undoubtedly be felt.
The aerogels displayed a well-developed porous structure, confirming that the polymerization of the precursors is not impeded; the effect of the additive was independent of the formulation of the aerogels, as evidenced by the behavior of aerogels with varied composition (molar ratio, pH, N-doping).
Simulations showed that under conditions of identical angular velocities in the stimuli, increasing the excitatory gain that neighboring cells exert on one another impedes the effect of stimulus motion as represented in our model.
Similarly, the addition of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) to androgen-deprived LNCaP cells re-established cell proliferation, through an androgen receptor/PI3K/Akt dependent stimulation of SphK1, and inhibition of SphK1 could markedly impede the effects of DHT.
The assumed trait character of frequent attendance may impede the effects of any treatment.
Because EPS production impedes the effect of an antibiotic by protecting the bacteria in the biofilm, it was suggested this could be considered a survival mechanism against an antimicrobial attack as previously described for Pseudomonas aeruginosa [ 20].
