Gypenoside XLIX isolated from Gynostemma pentaphyllum inhibits nuclear factor-kappaB activation via a PPAR-alpha-dependent pathway
Nuclear factor (NF)-κB is important in the generation of inflammation. Besides regulating lipid metabolism, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-α activators also reduce NF-κB activation to termin...

The specific contribution of object’s origin on artifacts categorization
Gelman and Bloom found that adults and children’s object naming was sensitive to how an object was created (man-made or not), but they did not reveal on which specific level of conceptual system this effect wa...

A channelized digital receiver design for UWB systems in a multi-path indoor environment
Due to the very wide bandwidth of UWB system, it is hard if not impossible to design high speed and high resolution ADCs with today’s technology. This problem can be solved if the received UWB signal is split ...
