Molecular profiling (mRNA, microRNA [miRNA], DNA methylation, and proteins) of mouse liver during 13 weeks of PB treatment revealed progressive increases in hepatic expression of long noncoding RNAs and miRNAs originating from the Dlk1-Dio3 imprinted gene cluster, a locus that has recently been associated with stem cell pluripotency in mice and various neoplasms in humans. PB induction of the Dlk1-Dio3 cluster noncoding RNA (ncRNA) Meg3 was localized to glutamine synthetase-positive hypertrophic perivenous hepatocytes, sug- gesting a role for β-catenin signaling in the dysregulation of Dlk1-Dio3 ncRNAs. The carcinogenic relevance of Dlk1-Dio3 locus ncRNA induction was further supported by in vivo genetic dependence on constitutive androstane receptor and β-catenin pathways. Our data identify Dlk1-Dio3 ncRNAs as novel candidate early biomarkers for mouse liver tumor promotion and provide new opportunities for assessing the carcinogenic potential of novel compounds.}, language = {en} } @article{ScheerKapelyukhMcEwanetal.2012, author = {Scheer, Nico and Kapelyukh, Yury and McEwan, Jillian and Beuger, Vincent and Stanley, Lesley A. and Rode, Anja and Wolf, C.

Because of the differences in the multiplicity and substrate specificity of CYP2D family members among species, it is difficult to predict pathways of human CYP2D6-dependent drug metabolism on the basis of animal studies. To create animal models that reflect the human situation more closely and that allow an in vivo assessment of the consequences of differential CYP2D6 drug metabolism, we have developed a novel straightforward approach to delete the entire murine Cyp2d gene cluster and replace it with allelic variants of human CYP2D6. By using this approach, we have generated mouse lines expressing the two frequent human protein isoforms CYP2D6.1 and CYP2D6.2 and an as yet undescribed variant of this enzyme, as well as a Cyp2d cluster knockout mouse. We demonstrate that the various transgenic mouse lines cover a wide spectrum of different human CYP2D6 metabolizer phenotypes. The novel humanization strategy described here provides a robust approach for the expression of different CYP2D6 allelic variants in transgenic mice and thus can help to evaluate potential CYP2D6-dependent interindividual differences in drug response in the context of personalized medicine.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BitzKraffOrzadaetal.2012, author = {Bitz, Andreas and Kraff, O. and Orzada, S. and Maderwald, S. and Brote, I. and Johst, S. and Ladd, E.}, title = {Assessment of RF Safety of Transmit Coils at 7 Tesla by Experimental and Numerical Procedures (490.)}, series = {19th annual ISMRM scientific meeting and exhibition 2011 : Montreal, Quebec, Canada, 7 - 13 May 2011}, booktitle = {19th annual ISMRM scientific meeting and exhibition 2011 : Montreal, Quebec, Canada, 7 - 13 May 2011}, number = {Volume 1}, publisher = {Curran}, address = {Red Hook, NY}, isbn = {978-1-61839-284-8}, pages = {475}, year = {2012}, language = {en} } @article{PaulssenKongArciszewskietal.2012, author = {Paulßen, Elisabeth and Kong, Shushu and Arciszewski, Pawel and Wielbalck, Swantje and Abram, Ulrich}, title = {Aryl and NHC Compounds of Technetium and Rhenium}, series = {Journal of the American Chemical Society}, volume = {134}, journal = {Journal of the American Chemical Society}, number = {22}, publisher = {ACS Publications}, address = {Washington, DC}, issn = {1520-5126}, doi = {10.1021/ja3033718}, pages = {9118 -- 9121}, year = {2012}, abstract = {Air- and water-stable phenyl complexes with nitridotechnetium(V) cores can be prepared by straightforward procedures.

Especially, whole-body imaging at 7 T and higher is therefore challenging. Recently, an acquisition scheme called time-interleaved acquisition of modes has been proposed to tackle the inhomogeneity problems in high-field MRI. The basic premise is to excite two (or more) different Burn:x-wiley:07403194:media:MRM23081:tex2gif-stack-1 modes using static radiofrequency shimming in an interleaved acquisition, where the complementary radiofrequency patterns of the two modes can be exploited to improve overall signal homogeneity. In this work, the impact of time-interleaved acquisition of mode on image contrast as well as on time-averaged specific absorption rate is addressed in detail. Time-interleaved acquisition of mode is superior in Burn:x-wiley:07403194:media:MRM23081:tex2gif-stack-2 homogeneity compared with conventional radiofrequency shimming while being highly specific absorption rate efficient.

The sensitivity of a magnetic field strength of 7 T might enable 3D 31P MR spectroscopic imaging with relevant spatial resolution in a clinically acceptable measurement time. To this end, a 31P endorectal coil was developed and combined with an eight-channel 1H body-array coil to relate metabolic information to anatomical location. An extensive safety validation was performed to evaluate the specific absorption rate, the radiofrequency field distribution, and the temperature distribution of both coils. This validation consisted of detailed Finite Integration Technique simulations, confirmed by MR thermometry and Burn:x-wiley:07403194:media:MRM24175:tex2gif-stack-1 measurements in a phantom and in vivo temperature measurements. The safety studies demonstrated that the presence of the 31P endorectal coil had no influence on the specific absorption rate levels and temperature distribution of the external eight-channel 1H array coil. To stay within a 10 g averaged local specific absorption rate of 10 W/kg, a maximum time-averaged input power of 33 W for the 1H array coil was allowed. For transmitting with the 31P endorectal coil, our safety limit of less than 1°C temperature increase in vivo during a 15-min MR spectroscopic imaging experiment was reached at a time-averaged input power of 1.9 W. With this power setting, a second in vivo measurement was performed on a healthy volunteer. Using adiabatic excitation, 3D 31P MR spectroscopic imaging produced spectra from the entire prostate in 18 min with a spatial resolution of 4 cm3. The spectral resolution enabled the separate detection of phosphocholine, phosphoethanolamine, inorganic phosphate, and other metabolites that could play an important role in the characterization of prostate cancer.}, language = {en} } @article{YazdanbakhshSolbachBitz2012, author = {Yazdanbakhsh, Pedram and Solbach, Klaus and Bitz, Andreas}, title = {Variable power combiner for RF mode shimming in 7-T MR imaging}, series = {IEEE Transaction on Biomedical Engineering}, volume = {59}, journal = {IEEE Transaction on Biomedical Engineering}, number = {9}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {New York}, issn = {1558-2531}, doi = {10.1109/TBME.2012.2205926}, pages = {2549 -- 2557}, year = {2012}, abstract = {This contribution discusses the utilization of RF power in an MRI system with RF mode shimming which enables the superposition of circularly polarized modes of a transmit RF coil array driven by a Butler matrix. Since the required power for the individual modes can vary widely, mode-shimming can result in a significant underutilization of the total available RF power. A variable power combiner (VPC) is proposed to improve the power utilization: it can be realized as a reconfiguration of the MRI transmit system by the inclusion of one additional matrix network which receives the power from all transmit amplifiers at its input ports and provides any desired (combined) power distribution at its output ports by controlling the phase and amplitude of the amplifiers' input signals. The power distribution at the output ports of the VPC is then fed into the "mode" ports of the coil array Butler matrix in order to superimpose the spatial modes at the highest achievable power utilization. The VPC configuration is compared to the standard configuration of the transmit chain of our MRI system with 8 transmit channels and 16 coils. In realistic scenarios, improved power utilization was achieved from 17\% to 60\% and from 14\% to 55\% for an elliptical phantom and a region of interest in the abdomen, respectively, and an increase of the power utilization of 1 dB for a region of interest in the upper leg. In general, it is found that the VPC allows significant improvement in power utilization when the shimming solution demands only a few modes to be energized, while the technique can yield loss in power utilization in cases with many modes required at high power level.}, language = {en} } @article{KrollLudwigs2012, author = {Kroll-Ludwigs, Kathrin}, title = {Ein optionales Vertragsrecht f{\"u}r Europa: Motor oder Hemmnis f{\"u}r den Binnenmarkt?}, series = {GPR : Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Gemeinschaftsprivatrecht}, volume = {9}, journal = {GPR : Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Gemeinschaftsprivatrecht}, number = {4}, publisher = {Verlag Dr. Otto Schmidt}, address = {K{\"o}ln}, issn = {2193-9519}, doi = {10.1515/gpr.2012.9.4.181}, pages = {181 -- 188}, year = {2012}, language = {de} } @article{ChludekTran2012, author = {Chludek, Astrid and Tran, Duc Hung}, title = {Der Reformvorschlag des IAS 12 gem.

A way to solve these problems is the production of biogas. Biogas is a combustible gas consisting of methane, carbon dioxide and small amounts of other gases and trace elements. Production of biogas through anaerobic digestion of animal manure and slurries as well as of a wide range of digestible organic wastes and agricultural residues, converts these substrates into electricity and heat and offers a natural fertiliser for agriculture. The microbiological process of decomposition of organic matter, in the absence of oxygen takes place in reactors, called digesters. Biogas can be used as a fuel in a gas turbine or burner and can be used in a hybrid solar tower system offering a solution for waste treatment of agricultural and animal residues. A solar tower system consists of a heliostat field, which concentrates direct solar irradiation on an open volumetric central receiver. The receiver heats up ambient air to temperatures of around 700°C. The hot air's heat energy is transferred to a steam Rankine cycle in a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG). The steam drives a steam turbine, which in turn drives a generator for producing electricity. In order to increase the operational hours of a solar tower power plant, a heat storage system and/ or hybridization may be considered. The advantage of solar-fossil hybrid power plants, compared to solar-only systems, lies in low additional investment costs due to an adaptable solar share and reduced technical and economical risks. On sunny days the hybrid system operates in a solar-only mode with the central receiver and on cloudy days and at night with the gas turbine only. As an alternative to methane gas, environmentally neutral biogas can be used for operating the gas turbine. Hence, the hybrid system is operated to 100\% from renewable energy sources}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{Butenweg2012, author = {Butenweg, Christoph}, title = {Eurocode 8 : Erdbebenauslegung von Tragwerken}, series = {Eurocodes 2012 kompakt - Chancen nutzen : 36.

The experimental results from Hb solutions revealed a direct correlation between protein resilience, melting temperature and average body temperature of the different species on the 0.1 ns time scale. Molecular forces appeared to be adapted to permit conformational fluctuations with a root mean square displacement close to 1.2 {\AA} at the corresponding average body temperature of the endotherms. Strong forces within crocodile Hb maintain the amplitudes of motion within a narrow limit over the entire temperature range in which the animal lives. In fully hydrated powder samples of human and chicken, Hb mean square displacements and effective force constants on the 1 ns time scale showed no differences over the whole temperature range from 10 to 300 K, in contrast to the solution case. A complementary result of the study, therefore, is that one hydration layer is not sufficient to activate all conformational fluctuations of Hb in the pico- to nanosecond time scale which might be relevant for biological function. Coarse-grained Brownian dynamics simulations permitted to explore residue-specific effects. They indicated that temperature sensing of human and chicken Hb occurs mainly at residues lining internal cavities in the β-subunits.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{DachwaldMikuckiTulaczyketal.2012, author = {Dachwald, Bernd and Mikucki, Jill A. and Tulaczyk, Slawek and Digel, Ilya and Feldmann, Marco and Espe, Clemens and Plescher, Engelbert and Xu, Changsheng}, title = {IceMole - a maneuverable probe for clean in-situ analysis and sampling of subsurface ice and subglacial aquatic ecosystems : extended abstract / SCAR Open Science Conference 2012, Session 29: Advancing Clean Technologies for Exploration of Glacial Aquatic Ecosystems}, year = {2012}, abstract = {The "IceMole" is a novel maneuverable subsurface ice probe for clean in-situ analysis and sampling of subsurface ice and subglacial water/brine. It is developed and build at FH Aachen University of Applied Sciences' Astronautical Laboratory. A first prototype was successfully tested on the Swiss Morteratsch glacier in 2010. Clean sampling is achieved with a hollow ice screw (as it is used in mountaineering) at the tip of the probe. Maneuverability is achieved with a differentially heated melting head. Funded by the German Space Agency (DLR), a consortium led by FH Aachen currently develops a much more advanced IceMole probe, which includes a sophisticated system for obstacle avoidance, target detection, and navigation in the ice. We intend to use this probe for taking clean samples of subglacial brine at the Blood Falls (McMurdo Dry Valleys, East Antarctica) for chemical and microbiological analysis. In our conference contribution, we 1) describe the IceMole design, 2) report the results of the field tests of the first prototype on the Morteratsch glacier, 3) discuss the probe's potential for the clean in-situ analysis and sampling of subsurface ice and subglacial liquids, and 4) outline the way ahead in the development of this technology.}, subject = {Eisschicht}, language = {en} } @article{ButenwegFehling2012, author = {Butenweg, Christoph and Fehling, Ekkehard}, title = {Hintergrund f{\"u}r die vereinfachten Regeln bei Mauerwerksgeb{\"a}uden im Erdbebenfall}, series = {Mauerwerk : European journal of masonry}, volume = {Volume 16}, journal = {Mauerwerk : European journal of masonry}, number = {Issue 3}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {1437-1022 (E-Journal); 1432-3427 (Print)}, doi = {10.1002/dama.201200537}, pages = {127 -- 137}, year = {2012}, abstract = {Bei der Ausarbeitung des nationalen Anwendungsdokumentes zur DIN EN 1998-1 waren die in der ENV-Fassung enthaltenen vereinfachten Regeln im Lichte aktueller Forschungsergebnisse zu {\"u}berpr{\"u}fen und zu {\"u}berarbeiten.

It would be adequate to name just a few notorious examples on microbial colonization of contact lenses, ship hulls, petroleum pipelines, rocks in streams and all kinds of biomedical implants. The propensity of microorganisms to become surface-bound is so profound and ubiquitous that it vindicates the advantages for attached forms over their free-ranging counterparts [2]. Indeed, from ecological and evolutionary standpoints, for many microorganisms the surface-bound state means dwelling in nutritionally favorable, non-hostile environments [3]. Therefore, in most of natural and artificial ecosystems surface-associated microorganisms vastly outnumber organisms in suspension and often organize into complex communities with features that differ dramatically from those of free cells [4].}, language = {en} } @incollection{BorggrafeOhndorfDachwaldetal.2012, author = {Borggrafe, Andreas and Ohndorf, Andreas and Dachwald, Bernd and Seboldt, Wolfgang}, title = {Analysis of interplanetary solar sail trajectories with attitude dynamics}, series = {Dynamics and Control of Space Systems 2012}, booktitle = {Dynamics and Control of Space Systems 2012}, publisher = {Univelt Inc}, address = {San Diego}, isbn = {978-0-87703-587-9}, pages = {1553 -- 1569}, year = {2012}, abstract = {We present a new approach to the problem of optimal control of solar sails for low-thrust trajectory optimization. The objective was to find the required control torque magnitudes in order to steer a solar sail in interplanetary space. A new steering strategy, controlling the solar sail with generic torques applied about the spacecraft body axes, is integrated into the existing low-thrust trajectory optimization software InTrance. This software combines artificial neural networks and evolutionary algorithms to find steering strategies close to the global optimum without an initial guess. Furthermore, we implement a three rotational degree-of-freedom rigid-body attitude dynamics model to represent the solar sail in space. Two interplanetary transfers to Mars and Neptune are chosen to represent typical future solar sail mission scenarios. The results found with the new steering strategy are compared to the existing reference trajectories without attitude dynamics. The resulting control torques required to accomplish the missions are investigated, as they pose the primary requirements to a real on-board attitude control system.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{AlexopoulosKluczkaVaessenetal.2012, author = {Alexopoulos, Spiros and Kluczka, Sven and Vaeßen, Christiane and Roeb, M. and Neises, M.}, title = {Scenario development for efficient methanol production using CO2 and solar energy}, series = {Eurosun 2012 : Solar energy for a brighter future : conference proceedings : Rijeka, 18.-22.09.2012}, booktitle = {Eurosun 2012 : Solar energy for a brighter future : conference proceedings : Rijeka, 18.-22.09.2012}, address = {Rijeka}, pages = {ID 99}, year = {2012}, language = {en} } @misc{BagheriDahmann2012, author = {Bagheri, Mohsen and Dahmann, Peter}, title = {Kletterroboter mit Gurtantrieb international [Offenlegungsschrift]}, publisher = {Deutsches Patentamt / Europ{\"a}isches Patentamt / WIPO / USPTO}, address = {M{\"u}nchen / Den Hague / Genf / Alexandria, Virginia}, pages = {1 -- 20}, year = {2012}, language = {de} } @misc{WollnyStadtmuellerTippkoetteretal.2012, author = {Wollny, S. and Stadtm{\"u}ller, R. and Tippk{\"o}tter, Nils and Oster, J. and Kampeis, P. and Ulber, Roland}, title = {Optimierung der selektiven Aufarbeitung von Proteinen mit Aptamer-funktionalisierten Magnetpartikeln}, series = {Chemie Ingenieur Technik}, volume = {84}, journal = {Chemie Ingenieur Technik}, number = {8}, publisher = {Wiley-VCH}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {0009-286X}, doi = {10.1002/cite.201250031}, pages = {1203}, year = {2012}, abstract = {Die Herstellung pharmakologisch relevanter Proteine durch Mikroorganismen f{\"u}hrt eine mehrstufige Aufarbeitung mit sich.

At 7.0 T image quality is not always exclusively defined by signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR). Detrimental effects bear the potential to spoil the signal-to-noise (SNR) and contrast-to-noise (CNR) benefits of cardiac MR (CMR) at 7.0 T. B₁⁺-inhomogeneities and signal voids represent the main challenges. Various pioneering coil concepts have been proposed to tackle these issues, enabling cardiac MRI at 7.0 T. This includes a trend towards an ever larger number of transmit and receive channels. This approach affords multi-dimensional B₁⁺ modulations to improve B₁⁺ shimming performance and to enhance RF efficiency. Also, parallel imaging benefits from a high number of receive channels enabling two-dimensional acceleration.

Application of 5-fluorouracil based counterselection through establishment of a phosphoribosyltransferase deficient Δupp strain eventually facilitated the marker-free introduction of degU32 leading to further protease enhancement achieving levels as for hypersecreting wild strains in which degU was overexpressed. Surprisingly, deletion of rapG - known to interfere with DegU DNA-binding in B. subtilis - did not enhance protease production neither in the wild type nor in the degU32 strain. The combination of degU32 and Δupp counterselection in the type strain is not only equally effective as in hypersecreting wild strains with respect to protease production but furthermore facilitates genetic strain improvement aiming at biological containment and effectiveness of biotechnological processes.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{WeilPoghossianSchoeningetal.2012, author = {Weil, M. and Poghossian, Arshak and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Cherstvy, A.}, title = {Electrical monitoring of layer-by-layer adsorption of oppositely charged macromolecules by means of capacitive field-effect devices}, isbn = {978-3-9813484-2-2}, doi = {10.5162/IMCS2012/P2.5.2}, pages = {1575 -- 1578}, year = {2012}, language = {en} } @article{HasanKeilStaatetal.2012, author = {Hasan, Istabrak and Keil, Ludger and Staat, Manfred and Wahl, Gerhard and Bourauel, Christoph}, title = {Determination of the frictional coefficient of the implant-antler interface : experimental approach}, series = {Biomedical Engineering / Biomedizinische Technik}, volume = {57}, journal = {Biomedical Engineering / Biomedizinische Technik}, number = {5}, publisher = {De Gruyter}, address = {Berlin}, issn = {1862-278X}, pages = {359 -- 363}, year = {2012}, abstract = {The similar bone structure of reindeer antler to human bone permits studying the osseointegration of dental implants in the jawbone. As the friction is one of the major factors that have a significant influence on the initial stability of immediately loaded dental implants, it is essential to define the frictional coefficient of the implant-antler interface. In this study, the kinetic frictional forces at the implant-antler interface were measured experimentally using an optomechanical setup and a stepping motor controller under different axial loads and sliding velocities. The corresponding mean values of the static and kinetic frictional coefficients were within the range of 0.5-0.7 and 0.3-0.5, respectively. An increase in the frictional forces with increasing applied axial loads was registered. The measurements showed an evidence of a decrease in the magnitude of the frictional coefficient with increasing sliding velocity. The results of this study provide a considerable assessment to clarify the suitable frictional coefficient to be used in the finite element contact analysis of antler specimens.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{TranStaat2012, author = {Tran, Thanh Ngoc and Staat, Manfred}, title = {A primal-dual shakedown analysis of 3D structures using the face-based smoothed finite element method}, series = {Proceedings European Congress on Computational Methods in Applied Sciences and Engineering (ECCOMAS 2012)}, booktitle = {Proceedings European Congress on Computational Methods in Applied Sciences and Engineering (ECCOMAS 2012)}, editor = {Eberhardsteiner, J.}, year = {2012}, language = {en} } @article{GrandeMeffertSchoenbergeretal.2012, author = {Grande, Marion and Meffert, Elisabeth and Schoenberger, Eva and Jung, Stefanie and Frauenrath, Tobias and Huber, Walter and Hussmann, Katja and Moormann, Mareike and Heim, Stefan}, title = {From a concept to a word in a syntactically complete sentence: An fMRI study on spontaneous language production in an overt picture description task}, series = {NeuroImage}, volume = {61}, journal = {NeuroImage}, number = {3}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1522-2586}, doi = {10.1016/j.neuroimage.2012.03.087}, pages = {702 -- 714}, year = {2012}, abstract = {Spontaneous language has rarely been subjected to neuroimaging studies. This study therefore introduces a newly developed method for the analysis of linguistic phenomena observed in continuous language production during fMRI. Most neuroimaging studies investigating language have so far focussed on single word or — to a smaller extent — sentence processing, mostly due to methodological considerations. Natural language production, however, is far more than the mere combination of words to larger units. Therefore, the present study aimed at relating brain activation to linguistic phenomena like word-finding difficulties or syntactic completeness in a continuous language fMRI paradigm. A picture description task with special constraints was used to provoke hesitation phenomena and speech errors. The transcribed speech sample was segmented into events of one second and each event was assigned to one category of a complex schema especially developed for this purpose. The main results were: conceptual planning engages bilateral activation of the precuneus. Successful lexical retrieval is accompanied - particularly in comparison to unsolved word-finding difficulties - by the left middle and superior temporal gyrus. Syntactic completeness is reflected in activation of the left inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) (area 44). In sum, the method has proven to be useful for investigating the neural correlates of lexical and syntactic phenomena in an overt picture description task. This opens up new prospects for the analysis of spontaneous language production during fMRI.}, language = {en} }
