- The pd→npp reaction has been measured using circulating 1.15 GeV protons, a gas jet target and scintillation detectors selecting scattered protons with energy above 30 MeV. The distribution of the two-proton invariant mass has a maximum at 2.13 ± 0.01 GeV/c2 and a width of 130 ± 10 MeV/c2 (FWHM). We see no evidence of narrow (Γ < 30 MeV/c2) peaks in the phase-space region selected. The mass of X, excited in the pN→nX elementary process, is 40 MeV/c2 smaller than the mass of a real Δ isobar.

- The pd → npp charge exchange reaction has been studied at 1.15 GeV incident proton energy in a selected kinematical region. The distributions of two-proton invariant mass Mpp, of angle of a single proton and the differential cross section dσ/dt of the (p, n) reaction are presented and compared with model predictions corrected for the acceptance of the experimental apparatus. We see no evidence of narrow (Γ < 30 MeV/c2) peaks in the Mpp interval 2.1-2.3 GeV/c2. The production of an intermediate Δ isobar in the primary (p, n) charge exchange and its subsequent absorption in a final state ΔN → pp process together with the background from quasi-free charge exchange scattering reasonably reproduces the general trends of the data.

Effect of estradiol on tumor growth, cell kinetics and p53 oncoprotein expression in human endometrial adenocarcinoma heterotransplanted into nude mice

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- To study the importance of estradiol concentrations in which tumors are growing to progression of tumor growth and cell kinetics, we have used a human tumor-nude mice model. In this model a human endometrial adenocarcinoma with estradiol independent but estradiol-responsive growth phenotype (i.e. the tumor was capable of growing in absence of estradiol but its growth could be stimulated by estradiol at the start of preparation phase) was examined. In the preparation phase pieces from this tumor were transplanted into nude mice, randomly divided into two groups, one with and one without estradiol treatment. After 18 months growth in these different hormone conditions the tumors were measured for p53 protein expression and pieces from both these groups were again transplanted into oophorectomized nude mice, each group being randomly allocated to two subgroups, one with and one without estradiol treatment (experimental phase). Tumor growth was measured during the experimental phase, whereas cell kinetic parameters and steroid receptor concentrations were analyzed after the experimental phase. Our findings indicate that progression of the growth phenotype is independent of estradiol conditions in which human endometrial adenocarcinomas are grown. Long-term growth in estradiol-poor conditions results in estradiol resistance of the cell cycle, probably accompanied by overexpression of the p53 protein. Tumor growth in estradiol-rich conditions, however, may protect, at least to some extent, the same tumor, which retains higher sensitivity of cell proliferation to estradiol and normal production of the p53 protein despite progressive changes in growth regulation.

Structure and surface properties of plasma polymerized acrylic acid layers
- 1990

- Thin plasma polymerized layers of acrylic acid (PPAA) were deposited onto polyethylene and muscovite mica surfaces. Structure and surface properties of the deposited layer depend on the polymerization conditions. The content of carboxylic groups in the layer decreases, whereas the degree of crosslinking or branching increases, with increasing discharge power. A soft, sticky layer with a low contact angle against water is obtained when a low discharge power (5 W) is used. In contrast, a hard film with a rather high water contact angle is obtained when the discharge power is high (50 W). A surface force apparatus was employed to study some film properties including adhesion force, crack formation, and capillary condensation. The adhesion force between plasma polymerized acrylic acid layers prepared at a low discharge power is high in dry air. It decreases remarkably in humid air and no adhesion is observed in water. In dry air, the adhesion force between PPAA layers decreases as the discharge power increases.
