Zen and the Body: A Postmodern Ascetic? Bodily Awakening in the Zen Memoirs of Shozan Jack Haubner
<jats:p>In this article, I examine two memoirs by the American Zen Buddhist author Shozan Jack Haubner. Within the contemporary genre of American Zen autobiographical literature, Haubner’s books are special in that they ... -
Zero Crossing Steps and Anomalous Shapiro Maps in Graphene Josephson Junctions.
(Nano letters, 2020-10)The AC Josephson effect manifests itself in the form of "Shapiro steps" of quantized voltage in Josephson junctions subject to radiofrequency (RF) radiation. This effect presents an early example of a driven-dissipative ... -
Zero-inflated Poisson and negative binomial models for longitudinal measures with heterogeneous random effects

Zero-temperature glass transition in two dimensions
The nature of the glass transition is theoretically understood in the mean-field limit of infinite spatial dimensions, but the problem remains totally open in physical dimensions. Nontrivial finite-dimensional fluctuations are ... -

ZipA and FtsA* stabilize FtsZ-GDP miniring structures.
(Sci Rep, 2017-06-16)The cytokinetic division ring of Escherichia coli comprises filaments of FtsZ tethered to the membrane by FtsA and ZipA. Previous results suggested that ZipA is a Z-ring stabilizer, since in vitro experiments it is shown ... -
Zostera marina meadows from the Gulf of California: conservation status
(Biodiversity and Conservation, 2016-02-01)© 2016, Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht. Eelgrass (Zostera marina) population estimates show a decreasing trend worldwide in the second half of the twentieth century. Mexico lacks long-term time series to determine ... -
β-Adrenergic Receptor Kinase-1 Levels in Catecholamine-Induced Myocardial Hypertrophy
(1999-01)Pressure overload ventricular hypertrophy is accompanied by dysfunctional β-adrenergic receptor signaling due to increased levels of the β-adrenergic receptor kinase-1, which phosphorylates and desensitizes β-adrenergic ... -
β-arrestin 1 regulates β2-adrenergic receptor-mediated skeletal muscle hypertrophy and contractility.
(Skeletal muscle, 2018-12-27)BACKGROUND:β2-adrenergic receptors (β2ARs) are the target of catecholamines and play fundamental roles in cardiovascular, pulmonary, and skeletal muscle physiology. An important action of β2AR stimulation on skeletal muscle ... -
β-arrestin 2-dependent activation of ERK1/2 is required for ADP-induced paxillin phosphorylation at Ser(83) and microglia chemotaxis.
(Glia, 2012-09)Microglia play crucial roles in increased inflammation in the central nervous system upon brain injuries and diseases. Extracellular ADP has been reported to induce microglia chemotaxis and membrane ruffle formation through ... -
β-arrestin-2 regulates NMDA receptor function in spinal lamina II neurons and duration of persistent pain.
(Nat Commun, 2016-08-19)Mechanisms of acute pain transition to chronic pain are not fully understood. Here we demonstrate an active role of β-arrestin 2 (Arrb2) in regulating spinal cord NMDA receptor (NMDAR) function and the duration of pain. ... -
γ′ fibrinogen levels are associated with blood clot strength in traumatic brain injury patients
(American Journal of Surgery, 2020-01-01)© 2020 Elsevier Inc. Background: γ′ fibrinogen is an alternatively-spliced fibrinogen variant that displays different coagulation parameters in vitro than the major form of fibrinogen. Purified γ′ fibrinogen has slower clotting ...
