", "But accents like ostrich feathers can be expensive on their own; not to mention Parisian silk hand-pleated ribbon, which can cost Conti $800 a spool.", "\n\nMilliners are generally happy to work within a budget, but why are women willing to pay thousands for a hat that they may wear only a few times, or just once? ", "Even if they can wear the hat to another race or luncheon, it won't be seen at another Kentucky Derby.", "\n\n\"People won't do it,\" said Diane Siverson, owner and milliner of Lady Diane Hats in Idaho. \"", "I have a customer that buys one every year.

", "I started because I love to create,\" Henning said. \"", "The inspiration comes from everywhere.\"", "\n\nFor these women, millinery has become a second career, born out of a shared epiphany: \"I want to make hats!\"", "\n\nThey each took classes, apprenticed under other hat makers or worked off of a basic sewing knowledge and taught themselves millinery.", "\n\nConti and Siverson's inspiration stemmed from things they loved, like showcasing the flowers from their well-tended gardens. ", "Henning was a fan of hats and used to buy them, but after finding only disappointment in department store selections, she began to make her own.", "\n\nSteinmann's spark grew from a simple pattern for a felted hat that her mother gave her. ", "As a child, she made clothes for her stuffed animals, and later in life, she sewed her own clothes. ", "After trying the pattern, she began to sell hats locally at a gallery shop on Cape Cod. ", "Now, her site delivers to people all over the world.", "\n\nFrom Michigan to Idaho and Ohio to Cape Cod, they craft custom hats for women they may never meet in person.", "\n\nIt means e-mailing photographs and mailing swatches of outfits to match the hats, hours of chatting on the phone and even using software to \"try on\" a hat (a feature Siverson's website offers) or a virtual \"sitting room\" with everything from a \"millinery mugshot\" to photos of the hat in progress on Conti's site.", "\n\nSiverson and Steinmann chat with their customers, listening for the nuances in their voices. ", "The conversations reveal the kind of hat they want, from reserved to loud and crazy. ", "Because a bespoke hat is such a personal thing, they want the finished product to project the customer's personality.", "\n\nAfter investing anywhere from three weeks to an entire year into the making of a hat, a connection forms between the milliner, eager to hear her customer's response, and the wearer, who usually picks up the phone as soon as the box arrives, squealing.", "\n\n\"It is so amazing to pop it into the box after that kind of involved process,\" Steinmann said. \"", "I not only have a relationship by then with the customer, but the hat as well.\"", "\n\nLike the other milliners, the hats featured on Henning's site aren't \"sitting on the shelf\" and ready to ship. ", "Rather, the photos are inspiration for what customers might want to build. ", "And just about every client asks, \"Have you already sold a hat like this for the Derby?\"", "\n\nInspirations for the hats come from their customers, but Conti is especially influenced by the glamour of 1930s and 1940s millinery. ", "Because she is \"creating all the time,\" Conti can even find inspiration by looking at a bowl or a lamp. ", "For 19 years, she has been creating almost all her hats by hand: \"It makes the stitches less easy to see.\"", "\n\nHelping a woman find her perfect hat can be inspiring, as veteran Derby hat seller Lucille Jackson, owner of Hunter's Hatters in Lexington, Kentucky, knows well. ", "The 80-year-old has been in business since 1984, but her shop could close after the Derby because her older, loyal customer base has shrunk due to illness and old age.", "\n\nAlthough she orders 95% of the hats in her store, she customizes most of them to suit the individual personality of her customers, from one-timers to regulars. \"", "I would rather see a lady happy in a hat that completes her wardrobe than to do a lot of things, honey,\" Jackson said\n\nBut she remains optimistic that she'll stay in business, because Jackson offers the kind of personal, by-appointment service that isn't available in department stores today. ", "She sits down with her \"ladies\" and helps them determine their color, style and \"hattitude,\" something the milliners are well-versed in spotting.", "\n\n\"You've got to know how to wear it,\" Jackson said. \"", "You have to have an attitude for a hat, and that creates a hattitude. ", "If you don't have an attitude about the hat, it doesn't mean anything, like a stick pin -- it's just there. ", "A hat is a true accessory and so important, because it makes a woman look so beautiful and feminine.\"", "\n\nHave you ever been to the Kentucky Derby? ", "Did you wear an incredible eye-catching hat? ", "Please share your experience in the comments below!", "\n\nMichael Matz was a member of the U.S. showjumping team that won the silver medal at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, and more recently a trainer of racehorses.

[ "Introduction {#Sec1}\n============\n\nThe main physiological function of osteoclasts in vivo is the resorption of bone matrix, which precedes the formation of new bone; this skeletal remodeling cycle allows adaptation to physical loading conditions, which in turn maintains the integrity of the skeleton \\[[@CR1]\\]. ", "This cycle also exhibits a key function in skeletal repair, which is a fundamental process ranging from the healing of traumatic fractures to the healing of osteotomies performed during reconstructive surgery \\[[@CR2]\\]. ", "An imbalance in osteoclastic activity can lead to implant loosening or bone diseases. ", "Increased resorption can lead to postmenopausal osteoporosis, whereas dysfunction of osteoclasts leads to osteopetrosis \\[[@CR3]\\].", "\n\nResorbing osteoclasts develop by the fusion of mononuclear precursor cells of the monocyte--macrophage lineage in the presence of the osteogenetic cytokines macrophage-colony stimulating factor (M-CSF) and receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) \\[[@CR4]\\]. ", "In order to resorb bone, osteoclasts become polarized, which involves the organization of the F-actin cytoskeleton into a typical densely packed ring-like structure, thus sealing the area beneath and forming a closed compartment in which the bone matrix and mineral can be resorbed, resulting in the formation of resorption pits \\[[@CR5], [@CR6]\\]. ", "The sealing zone is composed of an F-actin ring, consisting of podosomes that mediate the attachment of the cells to the extracellular matrix and encircling a highly ruffled secretory membrane \\[[@CR6], [@CR7]\\]. ", "Luxenburg et al. ", "\\[[@CR8]\\] demonstrated that during the polarization process new actin is recruited to fibers that directly interconnect the podosome actin cores and undergo dramatic reorganization during osteoclast maturation. ", "During the resorption process, bone mineral, mainly hydroxyapatite, is dissolved by the secretion of acid that is brought about by fusion of acidic vesicles to the plasma membrane and insertion of proton pumps into the ruffled border membrane. ", "The organic matrix is degraded by proteolytic enzymes, e.g., matrix metalloproteinases and cathepsin K, that are released into the resorption lacunae with further digestion/transport of internalized protein fragments. ", "Nevertheless, this general task can be regulated by a variety of factors including the chemical and physical nature of the mineralized resorption substrate. ", "The process of osteoclastic activity leaves behind resorption traces in the form of pits or trails, which are generally used to describe osteoclastic resorption behavior. ", "Formation of a single resorption pit occurs when an osteoclast resorbs a discrete cavity beneath the cell \\[[@CR9]\\], but the formation of resorption trails is less well understood.", "\n\nThe formation of pits and trails is a general hallmark of osteoclastic activity, observed in pure cultures or in coculture with other cell types from a variety of tissue sources (bone marrow, bone, blood, or cell lines) and species (human, mouse, rat, rabbit). ", "Additionally, the same pits or trails are generated regardless of the offered mineral substrate (dentin, bone, artificial ceramic, or hydroxyapatite substrates). ", "For in vitro investigations, dentin is often used as a mineralized substrate, and data obtained from such experiments are often extrapolated to osteoclastic behavior on bone \\[[@CR10]--[@CR13]\\]; but there is little information regarding direct comparison between these two materials, bone and dentin.", "\n\nFor this reason, we generated human osteoclasts from cultured precursor cells isolated from human peripheral blood and analyzed and compared the resorption behavior of these osteoclasts on these two materials histomorphometrically.

", "Bone is the continuously remodeled mineralized tissue in the human body, and dentin is widely used as an in vitro model substrate to study osteoclastic behavior, very often followed by extrapolation of the data obtained on dentin to osteoclastic behavior on bone. ", "Therefore, we first intended to characterize and compare osteoclastic resorption on these two mineralized materials. ", "Quantification of the resorption behavior revealed, on the one hand, a strong material-dependent effect illustrated by an 11-fold higher resorption on dentin (percent resorbed area) and a sevenfold higher number of pits per square centimeter on dentin compared to bone. ", "This material-dependent effect was also mirrored at the molecular level since genes associated with osteoclast migration, fusion, cytoskeletal organization, and resorption were upregulated in cells cultured on dentin compared to bone. ", "These elevated levels of fusion-related as well as maturation-related osteoclastic genes (cathepsin K and RANK were significantly upregulated, whereas TRAP showed a clear trend for higher expression in resorbing compared to nonresorbing osteoclasts) make it impossible to assign the material-dependent effect to either a pure cell fusion-specific or a pure resorption-specific effect. ", "Unfortunately, we could not study the effect of the substrates on gene expression at the protein level due to the limited amount of cells.", "\n\nOn the other hand, an important material-independent aspect was reflected by a similar average size of the pits on bone and dentin (with slightly higher, but not significantly different, levels on dentin) and comparable mean pit length and width and histogram distribution patterns.", "\n\nThe material chemistry of the substrate seems to have a minor effect on cell adhesion but exerts a major impact on the generation of osteoclasts (number of pits per square centimeter), whereas once the resorption process itself has started, it occurs quite independently of the material properties (average size of pits, mean pit length and width). ", "Interestingly, the resorption does not seem to depend on collagen orientation in the near surface region of the tissue since it appears randomly on osteonal as well as interstitial bone, which definitively exhibit different collagen orientation. ", "Vice versa, bone impairs osteoclastogenesis compared to dentin. ", "Azari et al. ", "\\[[@CR17]\\] described a similar observation, where different mineralized tissues evoked different effects on osteoclast formation and mainly affected their formation rather than their resorption. ", "Nevertheless, the resorption process itself is likely to be the same on bone and dentin. ", "Our observations suggest that dentin is a suitable model substrate for data acquisition and extrapolation to bone when studying general osteoclastic resorption processes. ", "However, addition of pharmacological substances other than M-CSF or RANKL or genetic manipulation of the preosteoclasts may influence or even abolish this observed material-dependent effect. ", "The striking quantitative difference in osteoclastic resorption between bone and dentin is interesting since bone and dentin are very similar in chemical composition as well as structural organization of collagen and mineral crystals at the micrometer and nanometer levels \\[[@CR18], [@CR19]\\]. ", "One possible explanation for the divergence in the observed resorption behavior on both materials may come from a difference in absolute amount of noncollagenous matrix proteins, e.g., osteopontin. ", "This protein is present in various concentrations in diverse bone types and is speculated to influence cell behavior \\[[@CR17]\\]. ", "In addition, osteocytic proteins, which are present in bone but are missing in dentin, may act on osteoclasts in the bone remodeling processes \\[[@CR20]--[@CR23]\\]. ", "Removal of organic components and osteocytic proteins from bone matrix was followed by an increased osteoclastic resorption in vitro \\[[@CR14]\\]. ", "Different osteoclastic resorption activity has also been described for numerous artificial substrates, e.g., hydroxyapatite, β-tricalcium phosphate, calcium phosphate, calcite, and carbonated apatite, including variation of cell adhesion rate on those materials, which we observed as well between bone and dentin \\[[@CR24]--[@CR27]\\]. ", "Osteoclastic activity is even influenced by extracts from natural mineralized substrates \\[[@CR28], [@CR29]\\]. ", "However, it is not understood why some substrates favor osteoclast adhesion and resorption while others do not. ", "Beyond those prominent material-dependent effects, we did not find a significant roughness-dependent effect in the micrometer range we offered to cells (just a tendency to higher levels on rough surfaces). ", "Geblinger et al. ", "\\[[@CR30]--[@CR32]\\] reported an increased half-life of the actin rings of resorbing RAW 264.7 osteoclast-like cells on rough artificial calcium substrates compared to smooth ones (roughness in the nanometer range), which could explain our observed tendency for higher resorption on the rough surfaces, as well as a very high dynamics of the sealing-zone being locally regulated by surface roughness. ", "However, topography-dependent higher resorption on rougher surfaces is described in the literature in osteoclast-like cell lines and osteoclasts generated from bone marrow \\[[@CR33]--[@CR36]\\]. ", "Nevertheless, the effects in cultures of primary osteoclasts may be due to the presence of osteoblastic cells or stromal cells, which are well known to strongly affect osteoclastic behavior \\[[@CR34]\\]. ", "Our osteoclast cultures were generated from peripheral blood; thus, they did not contain contaminating stromal cell types. ", "This allowed examination of the direct behavior of osteoclasts and not the indirect effects caused by the communication between osteoclasts and other cell types. ", "Besides the fact that osteoclasts are supposed to be significantly influenced by interactive signals from other cells, our data show that osteoclasts can, to a certain degree, act independently from mesenchymal cell types. ", "The material itself as well as the surface topography of the underlying substrate have the potential to directly guide the resorption behavior of osteoclasts (as reflected by the size and number of resorption lacunae and the resorbed area). ", "In the resorption process, actin ring formation is a prerequisite for an osteoclast to resorb; and in the case of bone as well as dentin, this process results in the same typical resorption traces, pits and trails, visible under reflected light microscopy. ", "Resorption pits correspond to \"reticulate patch resorption\" patterns, and resorption trails correspond to the \"longitudinal\" patterns, categorized by Gentzsch et al. ", "\\[[@CR37]\\]. ", "These resorption traces were also found in bone of femoral heads in vivo \\[[@CR37]\\]. ", "The 3D analyses of the resorption depth in our cultures showed that osteoclasts resorb up to certain maximum depth. ", "After reaching this depth, osteoclasts continue their resorption to further increase area but not depth. ", "This superficial resorption behavior of osteoclasts corresponds to the \"lacunar perforation type\" described in vivo \\[[@CR37]\\]. ", "Surprisingly, the resorption potential of the osteoclasts, generated from peripheral blood, strongly varied between the different donors; but nevertheless, it seems to be an intrinsic potential of the osteoclasts themselves. ", "This was reflected by the varying general resorption potential on the substrate surfaces, reflected by quite large error bars in the histograms, as well by the maximal depth of the resorption pits and pit volume. ", "Such a high variability in the resorption potential of osteoclasts was also observed by other authors \\[[@CR11], [@CR38]\\]. ", "We speculate that the individual, indefinable condition of each donor, probably reflected in the serum parameters but not further qualified in the case of our donors, played a significant role in this phenomenon since our donors were healthy individuals aged 19--55 years.", "\n\nThe resorption traces formed by osteoclasts seem to be identical not only between bone and dentin but also to other mineralized substrates since osteoclasts always form either pits or trails or fusing trails. ", "Beyond that, it is intriguing that on all materials and in osteoclasts from all species used in in vitro studies, the same actin ring formation patterns were observed \\[[@CR10]--[@CR13]\\]. ", "In the case of single pit formation, the resorption mechanism is known in the literature, which describes that the resorption direction is exclusively oriented to depth and the actin ring forms a circular or elliptical shape, enclosing the material in one plane \\[[@CR9]\\]. ", "Such a single pit may function as the initial step for trail formation. ", "The other shapes of actin rings observed, namely, crescent-shaped and half-elliptical, were associated with emerging resorption trails. ", "Saltel et al. ", "\\[[@CR39]\\] also observed round or crescent-shaped actin rings in osteoclasts seeded on hydroxyapatite or dentin. ", "Due to lacking information about the trail-forming process, we sought to elucidate the principal mechanism of how such a resorption trail is generated by an osteoclast. ", "A resorption trail is most probably produced by one osteoclast that migrates over the surface during the resorption process, whereas pits result from a noncontinuous process \\[[@CR40]\\]. ", "Based on the picture of a resorption trail visible under the microscope, one could speculate that such a longitudinal resorption trace may come from an osteoclast that resorbs to a certain depth and then continues resorption by a simple horizontal progression along the surface in a \"worm-like style.\" ", "Under confocal laser scanning microscopy we investigated actin rings which appeared as half-elliptical or crescent-shaped structures and were directly associated with an emerging trail. ", "A limitation of this study is that investigations were done on fixed cells, thus catching just one moment in the resorption process and not revealing dynamics in living cells. ", "Nevertheless, based on the observed 3D configuration of the actin ring due to trail architecture in case of resorbing osteoclasts we developed a model to explain how the resorption process leads to trail formation: during trail formation, one side of the actin ring is attached to the surface of the material, namely, outside the existing trail margin in the direction of resorption. ", "The other side of the ring attaches to the inner margin of the trail and reaches down along the material wall; thus, the closed resorption organelle encircles the region that is going to be resorbed next. ", "This 3D architecture of the resorption organelle allows the resorption of a thin layer of material from the surface to a depth (from top to bottom) which may lie, according to our analyses, in the range of 3--21 μm. ", "After reaching a certain pit depth, the cell stops resorption and the actin ring attaches again one step onward in the direction of resorption on the material surface, again followed by resorption of the material underneath. ", "By a cyclic repetition of this procedure, always starting resorption from the top and proceeding down to the depth, the cell degrades the material layer by layer. ", "Thus, the anatomical configuration of this kind of resorption organelle does not allow a simple horizontal resorption movement in a \"worm-like style\" but only a layer-by-layer degradation of the material from the top to the bottom, at the end appearing as a longitudinal trace under the microscope. ", "In our cultures we found only trail-resorbing osteoclasts exhibiting the described features. ", "Nevertheless, we cannot exclude that, in general, there may be vertically resorbing osteoclasts as well.", "\n\nConclusion {#Sec20}\n==========\n\nThe formation of resorption trails by osteoclasts occurs by an orchestrated combination of horizontal cell movement and vertical degradation of the material in thin layers.", "\n\nDentin is an appropriate substrate for studying osteoclast formation since resorption runs independently of the material (and is comparable on bone and dentin), once it has started. ", "It is the initiation of resorption which seems to be material-dependent and is different on bone and dentin. ", "Thus, only material-related conclusions extrapolated from dentin to bone (e.g., osteoclast formation kinetics) are not reliable. ", "Pharmacological substances or genetic manipulation of cells may abolish this material-dependent effect.", "\n\nThe authors have stated that they have no conflict of interest.", "\n\nThis research was funded by the Austrian Science Fund, Project P21524-B12.", "\n" ]

", "She was the top-rated British two-year-old of either sex in 1924, when she was unbeaten in three races. ", "In her first two races the following year she won the 1000 Guineas over one mile at Newmarket and The Oaks over one and a half miles at Epsom Downs Racecourse a month later. ", "Saucy Sue took her unbeaten run to seven by winning the Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot and the Nassau Stakes at Goodwood. ", "She was defeated in her next two races and was retired from racing at the end of the season after a final win in the Atalanta Stakes at Sandown Park.", "\n\nBackground\nSaucy Sue was a bay mare with a white blaze and one white sock on her left hind foot. ", "She was bred by her owner Waldorf Astor, 2nd Viscount Astor, an American-born politician and newspaper proprietor. ", "Saucy Sue's sire, Swynford, was a successful racehorse and stallion, winning the St Leger Stakes in 1910 and becoming British Champion sire in 1923.

", "She was never in any danger of defeat and won by six lengths from Miss Gadabout, with Firouze Mahal two lengths further back in third. ", "According to descriptions of the race she won with her ears pricked and her mouth hanging open as her jockey struggled to restrain her. ", "The win gave the forty-year-old Bullock a first classic win in what was to be his final season as a jockey. ", "After the race he described Saucy Sue was the most remarkable horse he had ever ridden and said that she had won without ever traveling at more than half-speed.", "\n\nTwenty-six days later, Saucy Sue was made 30/100 favourite for the Oaks in a field of twelve fillies. ", "Ridden again by Bullock she pulled hard in the early stages as her jockey tried to restrain her and ran wide at the turn into the straight as her bit slipped through her mouth. ", "Once Bullock allowed her to gallop freely however, she quickly went clear of the field and won by very easily by eight lengths from Miss Gadabout, who was in turn eight lengths clear of the rest. ", "Her winning time of 2:38.2 was more than two seconds faster than that recorded by the Derby winner Manna over the same course and distance two days earlier. ", "Following the win, she was described in the press as the best filly seen in Britain since Pretty Polly.", "\n\nAt Royal Ascot in June, Saucy Sue was brought back in distance to one mile for the Coronation Stakes and started at odds of 1/10. ", "Carrying a weight of 136 pounds, she won the race by ten lengths \"in a canter\" from Inca and two others. ", "A heel injury forced Saucy Sue to miss a run against colts and older horses in the Eclipse Stakes at Sandown in July, but she returned later in the month to win the Nassau Stakes over ten furlongs at Goodwood.", "\n\nOn 12 September, Saucy Sue was stepped up in distance for the Park Hill Stakes over fourteen and a half furlongs at Doncaster Racecourse. ", "Taylor's original intention had been to run the filly in the St Leger at the same meeting, but plans were revised after she was beaten by Picaroon in a trial race at Manton. ", "She was beaten for the first time as she finished third of the four runners, beaten twelve lengths by the Aga Khan's filly Juldi. ", "In her next race she finished third to the colts Conquistador and Warden of the Marches in the Royal Stakes at Newmarket on 17 October, leading some commentators to offer the opinion that she had been over-rated as a result of wins against an unusually weak crop of three-year-old fillies. ", "Saucy Sue ended her career with a win in late October as she defeated five opponents in the ten furlong Atalanta Stakes at Sandown.

", "These must be PDF ([*Portable Document Format*]{}) files formatted for 8-1/2$''$ $\\times$ 11$''$ paper.", "\n\nLength of Papers\n----------------\n\nAll paper [*submissions*]{} must have a maximum of six pages, plus at most one for references. ", "The seventh page cannot contain [**anything**]{} other than references.", "\n\nThe length rules may change for final camera-ready versions of accepted papers, and will differ between tracks. ", "Some tracks may include only references in the last page, whereas others allow for any content in all pages. ", "Similarly, some tracks allow you to buy a few extra pages should you want to, whereas others don’t.", "\n\nIf your paper is accepted, please carefully read the notifications you receive, and check the proceedings submission information website[^1] to know how many pages you can finally use (and whether there is a special references-only page or not). ", "That website holds the most up-to-date information regarding paper length limits at all times.", "\n\nWord Processing Software\n------------------------\n\nAs detailed below, IJCAI has prepared and made available a set of LaTeX macros and a Microsoft Word template for use in formatting your paper. ", "If you are using some other word processing software (such as WordPerfect, etc.), ", "please follow the format instructions given below and ensure that your final paper looks as much like this sample as possible.", "\n\nStyle and Format\n================\n\nLaTeX and Word style files that implement these instructions can be retrieved electronically. (", "See Appendix \\[stylefiles\\] for instructions on how to obtain these files.)", "\n\nLayout\n------\n\nPrint manuscripts two columns to a page, in the manner in which these instructions are printed. ", "The exact dimensions for pages are:\n\n- left and right margins: .75$''$\n\n- column width: 3.375$''$\n\n- gap between columns: .25$''$\n\n- top margin—first page: 1.375$''$\n\n- top margin—other pages: .75$''$\n\n- bottom margin: 1.25$''$\n\n- column height—first page: 6.625$''$\n\n- column height—other pages: 9$''$\n\nAll measurements assume an 8-1/2$''$ $\\times$ 11$''$ page size. ", "For A4-size paper, use the given top and left margins, column width, height, and gap, and modify the bottom and right margins as necessary.", "\n\nFormat of Electronic Manuscript\n-------------------------------\n\nFor the production of the electronic manuscript, you must use Adobe’s [*Portable Document Format*]{} (PDF). ", "A PDF file can be generated, for instance, on Unix systems using [ps2pdf]{} or on Windows systems using Adobe’s Distiller. ", "There is also a website with free software and conversion services: [http://www.ps2pdf.com/]{}. ", "For reasons of uniformity, use of Adobe’s [*Times Roman*]{} font is strongly suggested. ", "In LaTeX2e, this is accomplished by putting\n\nin the preamble.[^2]\n\nAdditionally, it is of utmost importance to specify the American [**letter**]{} format (corresponding to 8-1/2$''$ $\\times$ 11$''$) when formatting the paper. ", "When working with [dvips]{}, for instance, one should specify [-t letter]{}.", "\n\nTitle and Author Information\n----------------------------\n\nCenter the title on the entire width of the page in a 14-point bold font. ", "The title should be capitalized using Title Case. ", "Below it, center author name(s) in a 12-point bold font. ", "On the following line(s) place the affiliations, each affiliation on its own line using a 12-point regular font. ", "Matching between authors and affiliations can be done using superindices. ", "Additionally, a comma-separated email addresses list using a 12-point regular font is also allowed. ", "Credit to a sponsoring agency can appear on the first page as a footnote.", "\n\n### Blind Review\n\nIn order to make blind reviewing possible, authors must omit their names and affiliations when submitting the paper for review. ", "In place of names and affiliations, provide a list of content areas. ", "When referring to one’s own work, use the third person rather than the first person. ", "For example, say, “Previously, Gottlob  has shown that…”, rather than, “In our previous work [@gottlob:nonmon], we have shown that…” Try to avoid including any information in the body of the paper or references that would identify the authors or their institutions. ", "Such information can be added to the final camera-ready version for publication.", "\n\nAbstract\n--------\n\nPlace the abstract at the beginning of the first column 3$''$ from the top of the page, unless that does not leave enough room for the title and author information. ", "Use a slightly smaller width than in the body of the paper. ", "Head the abstract with “Abstract” centered above the body of the abstract in a 12-point bold font. ", "The body of the abstract should be in the same font as the body of the paper.", "\n\nThe abstract should be a concise, one-paragraph summary describing the general thesis and conclusion of your paper. ", "A reader should be able to learn the purpose of the paper and the reason for its importance from the abstract. ", "The abstract should be no more than 200 words long.", "\n\nText\n----\n\nThe main body of the text immediately follows the abstract. ", "Use 10-point type in a clear, readable font with 1-point leading (10 on 11).", "\n\nIndent when starting a new paragraph, except after major headings.", "\n\nHeadings and Sections\n---------------------\n\nWhen necessary, headings should be used to separate major sections of your paper. (", "These instructions use many headings to demonstrate their appearance; your paper should have fewer headings.). ", "All headings should be capitalized using Title Case.", "\n\n### Section Headings\n\nPrint section headings in 12-point bold type in the style shown in these instructions. ", "Leave a blank space of approximately 10 points above and 4 points below section headings. ", "Number sections with arabic numerals.", "\n\n### Subsection Headings\n\nPrint subsection headings in 11-point bold type. ", "Leave a blank space of approximately 8 points above and 3 points below subsection headings. ", "Number subsections with the section number and the subsection number (in arabic numerals) separated by a period.", "\n\n### Subsubsection Headings\n\nPrint subsubsection headings in 10-point bold type. ", "Leave a blank space of approximately 6 points above subsubsection headings. ", "Do not number subsubsections.", "\n\n### Special Sections\n\nYou may include an unnumbered acknowledgments section, including acknowledgments of help from colleagues, financial support, and permission to publish.", "\n\nAny appendices directly follow the text and look like sections, except that they are numbered with capital letters instead of arabic numerals.", "\n\nThe references section is headed “References,” printed in the same style as a section heading but without a number. ", "A sample list of references is given at the end of these instructions. ", "Use a consistent format for references, such as that provided by BibTeX. The reference list should not include unpublished work.", "\n\nCitations\n---------\n\nCitations within the text should include the author’s last name and the year of publication, for example [@gottlob:nonmon]. ", "Append lowercase letters to the year in cases of ambiguity. ", "Treat multiple authors as in the following examples: [@abelson-et-al:scheme] or [@bgf:Lixto] (for more than two authors) and [@brachman-schmolze:kl-one] (for two authors). ", "If the author portion of a citation is obvious, omit it, e.g., Nebel . ", "Collapse multiple citations as follows: [@gls:hypertrees; @levesque:functional-foundations].", "\n\nFootnotes\n---------\n\nPlace footnotes at the bottom of the page in a 9-point font. ", "Refer to them with superscript numbers.[^3] Separate them from the text by a short line.[^4] Avoid footnotes as much as possible; they interrupt the flow of the text.", "\n\nIllustrations\n=============\n\nPlace all illustrations (figures, drawings, tables, and photographs) throughout the paper at the places where they are first discussed, rather than at the end of the paper. ", "If placed at the bottom or top of a page, illustrations may run across both columns.", "\n\nIllustrations must be rendered electronically or scanned and placed directly in your document. ", "All illustrations should be in black and white, as color illustrations may cause problems. ", "Line weights should be 1/2-point or thicker. ", "Avoid screens and superimposing type on patterns as these effects may not reproduce well.", "\n\nNumber illustrations sequentially. ", "Use references of the following form: Figure 1, Table 2, etc. ", "Place illustration numbers and captions under illustrations. ", "Leave a margin of 1/4-inch around the area covered by the illustration and caption. ", "Use 9-point type for captions, labels, and other text in illustrations.", "\n\nAcknowledgments {#acknowledgments .unnumbered}\n===============\n\nThe preparation of these instructions and the LaTeX and BibTeX files that implement them was supported by Schlumberger Palo Alto Research, AT&T Bell Laboratories, and Morgan Kaufmann Publishers.

[ "Introduction {#sec1}\n============\n\nMerkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare and aggressive cutaneous malignancy with an estimated 2488 cases per year in the United States with an exponential increase in incidence.[@bib1] MCC patients have a high (approximately \\>30%) risk for locoregional recurrences and distant metastases after resection.[@bib2], [@bib3], [@bib4], [@bib5], [@bib6] For patients who have localized disease with clinically negative draining lymph nodes (American Joint Committee on Cancer \\[AJCC\\] eighth edition stage I-IIIA), initial treatment typically consists of wide excision of the primary tumor and sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB).[@bib7] Surgery is then often followed by adjuvant conventionally fractionated postoperative radiation therapy (cPORT) (50 Gy in 25 fractions).[@bib2], [@bib3], [@bib4], [@bib5], [@bib6] ^,^ [@bib8]\n\nFor patients with MCC of the head and neck (H&N), cPORT provides a locoregional control benefit over observation alone, even among the most favorable low-risk cases.[@bib3] ^,^ [@bib4] However, acute toxicity in the sensitive regions of the H&N can be substantial (eg, skin erythema and desquamation, painful mucositis, xerostomia, altered taste, anorexia, weight loss). ", "In addition, patients often face logistical challenges in attending a protracted course of radiation therapy (RT) for 5 weeks. ", "Logistical considerations are of particular relevance with the increased risk of infection, complications, and death that may occur over a protracted radiation course during the COVID-19 pandemic.[@bib9], [@bib10], [@bib11]\n\nPreviously, a study found durable local control for gross disease with 8-Gy single-fraction RT (SFRT) among patients with metastatic MCC with minimal toxicity,[@bib12] reflecting the radiosensitivity of MCC. ", "Here, we present the preliminary results of using SFRT treatment in a postoperative, curative setting for patients with H&N disease.", "\n\nMethods and Materials {#sec2}\n=====================\n\nTwelve patients were identified from an institutional review board-approved prospective registry of 1459 patients with MCC based on the following inclusion criteria: (1) localized MCC of the H&N with clinically negative lymph nodes treated in the initial or recurrent setting (AJCC eighth edition stage I-II), (2) surgical resection with or without SLNB, (3) no residual gross disease, (4) received postoperative 8-Gy SFRT, (5) \\>90 days of follow-up after SFRT, and (6) no prior RT to the H&N region. ", "Patients provided consent for SFRT after an informed discussion. ", "The patients who opted for this regimen were typically elderly with multiple comorbidities or with significant logistical difficulties and were otherwise willing to forgo RT despite having an indication for cPORT.

[ "Introduction\n============\n\nFor every given solid surface, breaking of periodicity in one dimension will result in a change in the electronic states near and at the surface, since the lack of nearest neighbours on one side of the surface atoms causes a sensible local rearrangement of the surface structure and chemical bonds. ", "We investigate here aluminum, which as a bulk material is a paradigmatic jelliumlike metal: cohesion and bonding are dominated by electron–gas features, where the ions can be considered roughly speaking as a perturbation.", " [@pseudo] What happens at an Al surface, however, is much less intuitive: does the surface behave essentially like a jellium surface, or do surface atoms play a preminent role? ", "Here we investigate this issue and we show how a sharp answer is provided by a tool which is a very innovative one in condensed matter physics. ", "So far, bonding features at a crystal surfaces have been investigated by studying either the charge density or the local density of states. ", "Instead, we are using here the so–called “electron localization function” (ELF),[@Becke_90; @Silvi_94; @Savin_97] which has become recently very popular in the field of quantum chemistry.", "\n\nWe study here three basic choices for the orientation of the Al surface: (110), (100), and (111), schematically shown in Fig.", " \\[f:Fig1\\]. ", "These high–symmetry surfaces have a rather different packing of the surface atoms: this is also visible in Fig.", " \\[f:Fig1\\], where the same scale has been used for the three surfaces. ", "Some correlation between packing and bonding properties is obviously expected, but what is surprising is that the three chosen surfaces span the whole range of possibilities, with (110) and (111) being at the two very extreme ends: while the Al(110) surface prominently displays well characterized Al atoms, Al(111) is essentially a weakly perturbed jellium surface. ", "The atomiclike vs. jelliumlike character of the electron distribution is perspicuously shown by the immediate graphical language of ELF.", "\n\nSeveral appealing features make ELF the tool of choice in the present study: ELF is a pure ground–state property, as the density is, but it “magnifies” by design the bonding features of a given electron distribution. ", "Furthermore, ELF is dimensionless, and allows to compare the nature of bonding on an absolute scale. ", "ELF provides in a very simple way a quantitative estimate of the “metallicity” of a given bond, or more generally of a given valence region of the system. ", "From our ELF calculations it is clear how in the bulk metal the valence electrons display a free–electron nature: actually, outside the core region, the charge density basically behaves as a free–electron gas. ", "This jelliumlike behaviour of the crystalline system must be contrasted with the opposite extreme of the isolated atom, where the valence–shell region is characterized by very different ELF values. ", "Through a series of ELF contour plots, we will show in the following how this free–atom behaviour is almost entirely reproduced by the topmost atoms of the least packed metal surface studied, namely Al(110). ", "We stress that ELF discriminates an atomiclike valence–electron distribution from a jelliumlike distribution in a sharp quantitative way.", "\n\nWe are adopting here a fully [*ab–initio*]{} method, which has become the “standard model” in modern first–principles studies of simple metals, covalent semiconductors, simple ionic solids, and many other disparate materials:[@Cohen_91] namely, density functional theory (DFT)[@Lundqvist_83] with norm–conserving pseudopotentials.[@Pickett_89] This framework is the natural choice for a real solid system as the one chosen for this work, although the ELF has been originally introduced and mostly applied, in the quantum–chemistry litterature, as an all–electron tool. ", "Anyhow, we will demonstrate that the use of the pseudopotential approximation makes the ELF particularly meaningful, since getting rid of the core electrons and focussing solely on the bonding electrons notably simplifies the final outcome.", "\n\nIn a recent very interesting paper, Fall [*et al.*]{}", " [@Fall_98] have investigated the trend in the Al work function for the same three orientations as considered here.

", "V we draw a few conclusions.", "\n\nDefinitions\n===========\n\nThe ELF has been originally proposed by Becke and Edgecombe, [@Becke_90] as a convenient measure of the parallel–spin electron correlation. ", "Starting from the short–range behavior of the parallel–spin pair probability, they defined a new scalar function, conveniently ranging from zero to one, that uniquely identifies regions of space where the electrons are well localized, as occurs in bonding pairs or lone–electron pairs.

", "The ELF is defined as $$\\mbox{ELF}=\\frac\n1{1+[D({\\bf r})/D_h({\\bf r})]^2}, \\label{e:ELF}$$ in which $D({\\bf r})$ and $D_h({\\bf r})$ represent the curvature of the parallel–spin electron pair density for, respectively, the actual system and a homogeneous electron gas with the same density as the actual system at point [**r**]{}. ", "By definition, ELF is identically one either in any single–electron wavefunction or in any two–electron singlet wavefunction: in both cases the Pauli principle is ineffective, and the ground wavefunction is nodeless or, loosely speaking, “bosonic”. ", "In a many–electron system ELF is close to one in the regions where electrons are paired to form a covalent bond, while is small in low–density regions; ELF is also close to one where the unpaired lone electron of a dangling bond is localized. ", "Furthermore, since in the homogeneous electron gas ELF equals 0.5 at any density, values of this order in inhomogeneous systems indicate regions where the bonding has a metallic character.", "\n\nSavin [*et al.*]{}", " [@Savin_92] have proposed another illuminating interpretation of the same quantity, showing how $D$ can be simply calculated in terms of the local behaviour of the kinetic energy density, thus making no explicit reference to the pair distribution function. ", "This is particularly convenient in our case, since the pair density is outside the scope of DFT. ", "Owing to the Pauli principle, the ground–state kinetic energy density of a system of fermions is no smaller than the one of a system of bosons at the same density: ELF can be equivalently expressed in terms of the extra contribution to the kinetic energy density due to the Pauli principle. ", "The Savin [*et al.*]{} ", "reformulation also provides a meaningful physical interpretation: where ELF is close to its upper bound, electrons are strongly paired and the electron distribution has a local “bosonic” character.", "\n\nFollowing Ref.", " , $D({\\bf r})$ is the Pauli excess kinetic energy density, defined as the difference between the kinetic energy density and the so–called von Weizsäcker kinetic energy functional: [@Dreizler] $$D({\\bf r})=\\frac 12\\nabla _{{\\bf\nr}}\\nabla _{{\\bf r^{\\prime }}}\\rho ({\\bf r}, {\\bf r^{\\prime }})\\bigg |_{{\\bf\nr}={\\bf r^{\\prime }}}-\\frac 18\\frac{|\\nabla n({\\bf r})|^2}{n({\\bf r})}\n\\label{e:D}$$ where $\\rho $ is the one–body reduced (spin–integrated) density matrix. ", "The von Weizsäcker functional provides a rigorous lower bound for the exact kinetic energy density [@Dreizler] and is ordinarily indicated as the “bosonic” kinetic energy, since it coincides with the ground–state kinetic energy density of a non–interacting system of bosons at density $n({\\bf r})$. Therefore, $D$ is positive semidefinite and provides a direct measure of the local effect of the Pauli principle. ", "The other ingredient of Eq.", " (\\[e:ELF\\]) is $D_{h}({\\bf r})$, defined as the kinetic energy density of the homogeneous electron gas at a density equal to the local density: $$D_h({\\bf r})=\\frac 3{10}(3\\pi ^2)^{\\frac 23}n({\\bf\nr})^{\\frac 53}. ", " \\label{e:D_h}$$ It is obvious to verify that the ELF is identical to one in the ground state of any one– or two–electron systems, while is identical to 0.5 in the homogeneous electron gas at any density.", "\n\nAs commonly done in many circumstances—including in other ELF investigations[@Savin_92]—we approximate the kinetic energy of the interacting electron system with the one of the noninteracting Kohn–Sham (KS) one. ", "We therefore use the KS density matrix: $$\\rho ({\\bf\nr},{\\bf r^{\\prime }})= 2 \\sum_i\\phi_i^{KS} ({\\bf r})\\phi _i^{*KS}( {\\bf\nr^{\\prime }}), \\label{e:rho}$$ where $\\phi _i^{KS}({\\bf r})$ are the occupied KS orbitals. ", "Such approximation is expected to become significantly inaccurate only in the case of highly correlated materials.", "\n\nIsolated Pseudo–Atom\n====================\n\nThe original ELF definition is an all–electron one, and has the remarkable feature of naturally revealing the entire shell structure for heavy atoms. ", "Such a feature is of no interest here, since only one electronic shell (the $sp$ valence one) is involved in the bonding of Al atoms in any circumstances. ", "The pseudopotential scheme simplifies the landscape, since only the electrons of the relevant valence shell are dealt with explicitly: the ELF message comes out therefore much clearer, with basically no loss of information.[@Kohout_97] In the spatial regions occupied by core electrons, the pseudo–electronic distribution shows a depletion and ELF assumes very low values. ", "Outside the ionic cores, in the regions relevant to chemical bonding, the norm conservation endows the pseudocharge density with physical meaning, as widely discussed in the modern pseudopotential literature.[@Cohen_91; @Pickett_89] The pseudo ELF carries therefore—in the material of interest here—the same information as the all–electron ELF, while it removes irrelevant and confusing features due to the inner, chemically inert, shells.", "\n\nFor an isolated pseudo–atom we have by construction only a single valence shell, clearly displayed by a single and very prominent ELF maximum. ", "In Fig.", " \\[f:Fig2\\] we report our result carried out for an isolated Al atom: in the picture one immediately remarks the spherical region associated to the ELF maximum (0.91), where the charge density is almost bosonic. ", "The black cloud in Fig.", " \\[f:Fig2\\] indicates the strong localization of the electronic valence shell and perspicuously distinguishes the [*free*]{} aluminum pseudo–atom from the crystalline one.", "\n\nIndeed looking at the following Figs.", " \\[f:Fig3\\]–\\[f:Fig5\\], and inspecting the bulk regions of them, the ELF plots quantitatively demonstrate that the valence electrons have a predominant free–electron nature, with a jelliumlike (or Thomas–Fermi) ELF value. ", "The ion cores only provide an “exclusion region” for electrons (white circles in the plots), but basically do not alter the jelliumlike nature of the electron distribution outside the core radii: in this sense we may regard the ion cores as a “weak” perturbation.[@pseudo] Actually, the maximum value attained by ELF between nearest–neighbor atoms in bulk Al is only 0.61 and—outside the core radii—there is a widespread grey region, where ELF is almost constant and close to 0.5, thus indicating a jelliumlike electronic system. ", "This peculiar behaviour will help us in the following to understand the bonding pattern occurring at different Al surfaces.", "\n\nAluminum Surfaces\n=================\n\nAll the calculations in this work use a state–of–the–art set of ingredients: a plane–wave expansion of the KS orbitals with a 16 Ry kinetic–energy cut–off, a set of Monkhorst–Pack[@Monkhorst_76] special points for the Brillouin zone integration, with a Gaussian broadening of 0.01Ry and a norm–conserving pseudopotential in fully non–local form.[@Kleinman_82] The calculations for the (111) surface were performed using a 9+6 supercell (9 planes of Al, 6 equivalent planes of vacuum) and 37 [**k**]{}–points in the irreducible Brillouin zone. ", "The corresponding values used for the (100) surface are an 8+6 supercell and 46 [**k**]{}–points, and for the (110) surface an 8+8 supercell and 48 [**k**]{}–points. ", "We have preliminarily investigated the effect of surface ionic relaxation on ELF, and found it negligible. ", "Similar insensitiveness was found in Ref.", "  upon other surface electronic properties: we therefore present results for the unrelaxed surfaces. ", "As shown above in Fig.", " \\[f:Fig1\\], the three surfaces have a different packing: the packing increases from Al(110) to Al(100) to Al(111). ", "A measure of this packing is the number of nearest neighbors in the surface plane, called coordination in the following: this number is 2, 4, and 6 for the three surfaces, respectively.", "\n\nIn Fig.", " \\[f:Fig3\\] we report two ELF contour plots along two non–equivalent planes passing through the topmost (twofold coordinated) atom of the Al(110) surface. ", "Along a direction orthogonal to the surface and passing through the surface atom, our calculated ELF attains the maximum value of 0.86, thus indicating that the Pauli principle has little effect. ", "Comparing Fig.", " \\[f:Fig3\\] to \\[f:Fig2\\], where the ELF maximum has the close value of 0.91, we quantitatively see see how much the surface atom actually behaves as a free–atom in the outer direction. ", "A slightly different electronic distribution is present at the four–fold coordinated Al(100) surface in Fig.", " \\[f:Fig4\\]. ", "In this case the ELF maximum—along the same direction—attains the lower value of 0.80 and shows therefore an electron distribution with a less pronounced atomiclike character.", "\n\nThe almost black regions around the surface atoms in Figs.", " \\[f:Fig3\\] and \\[f:Fig4\\] are also clearly visible in the top views of Fig.", " \\[f:Fig6\\], where the contour plots are drawn in the outermost atomic plane. ", "In this plane the maxima occur midway between nearest-neighbors atoms and assume the values of 0.77, 0.74, and 0.67 in order of increasing packing. ", "This decrease of electron pairing shows a trend from covalent–like to metallic–like bonding between nearest neighboring surface atoms; bonding to the underlying bulk atoms is instead metallic in all cases.", "\n\nFinally, in Fig.", " \\[f:Fig5\\] we have the extreme case of the six–fold coordinated Al(111) surface. ", "The absolute ELF maximum is only 0.73 and lies in a low–symmetry point, slightly off the outermost atomic plane. ", "Along the direction orthogonal to the surface and passing through the surface atom, the ELF maximum is only 0.65: this behaviour clearly marks an almost smooth decay from the bulk—where the electrons exhibit a prevailing jelliumlike distribution—to the vacuum region. ", "Also in the top view of Fig.", " \\[f:Fig6\\] there is no evidence of electron pairing between surface atoms, with a wide spread region of almost uniform ELF, close in value to 0.5. ", "We can therefore summarize the result by saying that the Al(111) surface is essentially a jellium surface perturbed by the atomic cores, in a pseudopotential sense:[@pseudo] the perturbation obviously originates an “exclusion region” (white plots within the core radii), but besides this has little effect on the electron distribution in the bulk [*and*]{} at the (111) surface.", "\n\nThe values of the maxima in the direction orthogonal to the surface and passing through the surface atom in the three cases (0.91, 0.80, and 0.65, as reported above) can be interpreted as a measure of the occupation of the atomiclike states protruding from the surface. ", "We recall in fact that ELF is identically equal to 1 for any one– or two–electron system: high ELF values indicate a strong localization of the wavefunction. ", "Our numbers show an analogous trend as the one pointed out by Ref.", " , where it is shown that the filling of atomic $p_\\perp$ orbitals, protruding from the surface, decreases indeed with increasing packing, [*i.e.*]{} going from (110) to (100) to (111).", "\n\nConclusions\n===========\n\nIn conclusion, we have shown how the ELF at the surfaces of a paradigmatic $sp$–bonded metal distinctly reveals the rearrangements in the electron distribution due to the surface formation and to the changes in the local coordination. ", "We have shown that ELF, in a modern DFT–pseudopotential framework, is a powerful tool to investigate—without using any spectral information—the chemical bonding pattern: this makes the method appealing in order to deal with much more complicated systems.", "\n\nFinally, to put this work in a wider perspective, we notice in the current literature a quest for other innovative tools which address localization and bonding,[@Silvestrelli98; @rap107] and whose relationships to ELF have not been investigated yet.", "\n\nV.

[ "1. ", "Field of the Invention\nThe present invention relates to a fastener means which utilizes the attraction of a permanent magnet and which comprises an attraction member and a member to be attracted. ", "More particularly, in order to converge the magnetism of one of the magnetic poles, a projection made of ferromagnetic material is provided on a plate to be attached on the surface of the magnetic pole. ", "The plate at the magnetic pole and the permanent magnet are firmly fixed by firmly pressing the projection into a hole provided in the direction of the magnetic pole of the permanent magnet to thereby form an attraction member. ", "The member to be attracted is made of ferromagnetic material and is made attachable/detachable with respect to the surface of the other pole of the permanent magnet. ", "By attaching the attraction member and the attracted member to the body and the flap of a handbag respectively, a fastener means is obtained. ", "The fastener means may be attached to a body and a door of a case, or to both ends of a belt or a chain, or on a jacket at the position of a hook or a button, for opening and closing the door, fastening belts, connecting the chain, fastening cloths, etc.", "\n2. ", "Description of the Related Art\nFastener means utilizing the attraction of a permanent magnet are diversified in structure and use.", "\nOne of such fastener means is embodied by U.S. Pat. ", "No. ", "4,021,891. ", "The fastener means according to said invention features a ferromagnetic member which is attached fixedly or detachably to each respective magnetic pole of a magnet, thereby containing the magnetic fields of the poles within the respective plates. ", "At the same time, a hole is provided in the direction of the magnetic pole so that a ferromagnetic projection arranged inside the hole forms a passage of low magnetism connecting the ferromagnetic plates.", "\nAs a result, the magnetic flux of the permanent magnet is converged on the ferromagnetic projection in the hole, minimizing the magnetic flux leakage and thus providing a fastener means with firm attraction.", "\nCertain improvements have been made to U.S. Pat. ", "No. ", "4,021,891 and these are shown in U.S. Design Pat. ", "Nos. ", "247,467 and 247,468. ", "U.S. Pat. ", "No. ", "4,453,294 for a fastener means shows an additional improvement U.S. Pat. ", "No. ", "4,489,361, discloses an additionally improved fastener means with higher shielding effect against magnetic leakage.", "\nIn the above mentioned patents, the ferromagnetic plate is attached to one of the magnetic poles either by a non-magnetic case, or by attaching the plate directly to the permanent magnet by an adhesive.", "\nUse of a non-magnetic case as a means to attach the ferromagnetic member for the purpose of converging the magnetic flux is advantageous in that the non-magnetic case covers the outer surface of the magnet and, therefore, both protects the magnet against damage and offers a better appearance. ", "However, the presence of the non-magnetic case causes a magnetic gap between the surface of the attraction member and the member to be attracted, equivalent to the thickness of the case. ", "This prevents the magnetic flux of the attraction member from effectively reaching the member to be attached and causes flux leakage of the flux outside the fastener means.", "\nManufacturing difficulty is a second problem of the above mentioned means. ", "The non-magnetic case is usually manufactured by press-holding. ", "Thereafter, it is necessary to fix the permanent magnet and ferromagnetic plate within the case. ", "This involves the handling of the several components, as well as troublesome assembling steps, and leads to a high cost for the final product.", "\nIn order to overcome both the magnetic gap and the production cost problems, one possible solution is to directly attach a ferromagnetic member to one of the magnetic poles of a permanent magnet with an adhesive. ", "This eliminates the magnetic gap that is formed by a non-magnetic case, thereby improving the attraction between the magnet and the member to be attracted. ", "However, in order to fabricate a fastener of this type, it is necessary to apply an adhesive, align the positions of a permanent magnet and the ferromagnetic plate, press the two members together in a manner that does not cause the adhesive to be squeezed out, and maintain the pressure between the two members until the adhesive is completely set. ", "Once again, because of the numerous productions steps, the production cost becomes high. ", "Furthermore, there is no ready method to check the condition of adhesion between the permanent magnet and the ferromagnetic plate, which results in a danger that the adhesion between the two members may be or may become ineffective and ultimately result in the parts separating from each other by subsequent impact.", "\nAnother fastener means, such as that disclosed in U.S. Pat. ", "No. ", "4,700,436, includes a permanent magnet made of synthetic resin, utilizes a unique design wherein the ferromagnetic member is integrally buried inside the magnet. ", "As a result, there is no need to attach the ferromagnetic member to one of the magnetic poles of the magnet. ", "Nor is it necessary to attach the ferromagnetic member by means of a non-magnetic case. ", "As a result, the problems encountered in the construction and/or manufacture of the prior art fastener means were solved.", "\nHowever, the fastener means mentioned above has serious drawbacks. ", "In particular, since the permanent magnet is made from synthetic resin by injection-molding extreme care must be exercised in incorporating the ferromagnetic member inside the resin. ", "The procedure requires the use of a high degree of skill in carrying out a number of troublesome steps. ", "Furthermore, the ferromagnetic member incorporated inside the magnet is likely to be at an undesired angle, making it difficult to establish firm attraction between the attraction member and the member to be attracted." ]

", "But, thanks to neuroscientist, Gregory Berns, of Emory University we now have the scientific proof to back it up.", "\n\nOver the past two years, Berns has conducted a series of MRI testing on canines, including his own pup, to test their capacity for love and attachment.

", "A few round swellings of tegument (Type II) were observed only on oral sucker. ", "The tegumental surface of 2-day old worms showed deeper rugae, and the anterior half covered with knob-like processes of distal cytoplasm and the posterior half with cobblestone-like ones. ", "Interspinous space became more wide and 9 pointed spines appeared on anterior dorsal surface. ", "The sensory papillae enlarged but not changed in their distribution. ", "The tegument of 1-week old worms revealed knob-like cytoplasmic processes in posterior half body and velvety ones around oral sucker. ", "The scale-Iike spines of anterior half body changed remarkably to the slender ones of posterior body at the level of ventral sucker. ", "In dorsal surface, the arrangement of the Type I papillae were bilaterally symmetrical. ", "The tegument of 4-week old worms were finely differentiated and the posterior tegument covered with velvety cytoplasmic processes. ", "The spines had remarkably grown in length and width but the density remained nearly unchanged. ", "The papillae also became larger but their morphology and distribution were not different from younger worms. ", "However, the round elevation of cytoplasmic ridges (Type III papilla) appeared bilaterally on inner wall of oral sucker, approximately 8 in number. ", "From the above results, it is considered that the tegument of juvenile M. yokogawai continued to differentiate until 4 weeks after infection." ]

[ "Introduction {#S0001}\n============\n\nIn eukaryotic cells, nuclear-cytoplasmic shuttling of proteins is a key step in the regulation of intracellular signaling and the adaptation of cell homeostasis to the environment. ", "Proteins are translated in the cytoplasm, but many proteins, especially transcription factors, need to be localized to the nucleus to exert their specific function.[@CIT0001] The nuclear envelope separates the nucleus and the cytoplasm and defines two specialized compartments. ", "Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) enable passive passage of proteins with a molecular mass up to a size of \\~40 kDa, whereas the nuclear-cytoplasmic transport of larger macromolecules is energy-dependent and requires nuclear transport receptors called karyopherins or importins/exportins.[@CIT0002] Importins recognize their cargo proteins in the cytoplasm via nuclear localization signals (NLS) and mediate nuclear import through the NPC. ", "Inside the nuclear compartment, disassembly of the import complex is achieved by binding of RanGTP.[@CIT0003] In contrast, exportins bind their cargo proteins in the nucleus via nuclear export signals (NES) together with RanGTP. ", "In the cytoplasm, the trimeric export complex disassembles upon GTP hydrolysis of RanGTP.[@CIT0004] The main mediator of nuclear export is Exportin 1 (XPO1).[@CIT0005] XPO1 binds a short leucine-rich or hydrophobic nuclear export signal of the cargo protein and directly interacts with nucleoporins in the NPC.[@CIT0006]\n\nIn recent years, XPO1 turned out to be responsible for the nuclear export of more than 200 cargo proteins including many of the major (proto-) oncoproteins and tumor suppressors such as BRCA1,[@CIT0007] p53,[@CIT0008] cyclin D1[@CIT0009] and the FoxO subfamily of Forkhead transcription factors.[@CIT0010] Deregulation of nuclear export processes causes mislocalization, inactivation or aberrant activation of cancer-related proteins and has been implicated in uncontrolled cancer cell growth and radio- and drug resistance.[@CIT0011],[@CIT0012] For example, inactivation of p53 during tumor development is caused by cytoplasmic accumulation of p53 and depends on MDM2-mediated ubiquitination efficient nuclear export of nuclear p53.[@CIT0013] Moreover, in esophageal cancer samples, several mutations were identified that disrupt phosphorylation-dependent nuclear export of cyclin D1 suggesting that nuclear accumulation of cyclin D1 contributes to the genesis and progression of neoplastic growth.[@CIT0014] The promising potential of XPO1 as a valid target for therapeutic intervention is further underlined by the fact that XPO1 protein expression is increased in various solid tumors such as ovarian,[@CIT0015] osteosarcoma,[@CIT0016] pancreatic,[@CIT0017] cervical[@CIT0018] and gastric[@CIT0019] cancers and hematological malignancies.[@CIT0020],[@CIT0021] In addition, poor clinical outcome, increased metastasis, increased tumor size and decreased progression-free and overall survival is associated with XPO1 overexpression.", "\n\nAlthough XPO1 inhibition affects all XPO1 cargo proteins bearing an NES, malignant cells are more affected by nuclear export inhibition. ", "Tumor cells have to adapt to their surrounding microenvironment which may result in a higher dependence on nuclear-cytoplasmic transport.[@CIT0022] This makes nuclear transport receptors promising targets for therapeutic intervention for several disease states and especially in cancer.", "\n\nPreviously, the anti-fungal antibiotic leptomycin B (LMB) has been reported to be a potent compound for the inhibition of XPO1-dependent nuclear export.[@CIT0023] However, LMB showed systemic toxicity in both animals and humans in phase I clinical studies resulting in discontinuation of clinical development.[@CIT0024] More recently, novel, orally bioavailable, small-molecule selective inhibitor of nuclear export (SINE) compounds such as selinexor have been described. ", "These compounds form covalent bonds with cysteine-528 of the XPO1 cargo-binding pocket, thereby inhibiting interaction between XPO1 and its cargo proteins.[@CIT0025] Selinexor is currently under evaluation in phase II and III clinical trials. ", "Thereby, promising antitumor activity in both solid and hematological cancer types was demonstrated.[@CIT0026]--[@CIT0028] In July 2019, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved selinexor (XPOVIO^TM^) in combination with dexamethasone for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (NCT02336815).", "\n\nHypoxia is a characteristic feature of solid tumors evolving due to an imbalance between oxygen availability and consumption. ", "Cancer cells induce metabolic changes and develop a metabolic flexibility to survive and proliferate in low oxygen tension conditions. ", "The transcription factor hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) is a master regulator in the adaptation to hypoxia and the regulation of cancer cell metabolism since HIF specific target genes are involved in the activation of numerous cellular processes including cell survival, glycolytic energy metabolism, erythropoiesis, vascular remodeling and angiogenesis.[@CIT0029] Accordingly, a strong correlation between the nuclear accumulation of HIF and malignant cancer phenotype, poor patient prognosis and tumor resistance has been described.[@CIT0030],[@CIT0031] Since the activity of HIF depends on its correct spatial arrangement, intracellular localization of HIF plays a major role for the broad metabolic reprogramming of cancer cells and involves nuclear export by XPO1.[@CIT0032],[@CIT0033]\n\nThe heterodimeric transcription factor HIF consists of one of the three different oxygen-labile α-subunits (primarily HIF-1α) and a constitutive β-subunit. ", "In contrast, protein expression of HIF-1α is tightly regulated by oxygen-dependent post-translational modifications.[@CIT0034] In normoxia, HIF-1α is hydroxylated by one of the three cellular oxygen sensors prolyl hydroxylase domain (PHD) proteins PHD1, PHD2 or PHD3 resulting in recognition by von Hippel--Lindau protein followed by ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation.[@CIT0035] Under hypoxic conditions, lack of oxygen inhibits PHD activity and results in HIF-1α stabilization and subsequent translocation to the nucleus. ", "The knowledge about the pattern of regulation of HIF was extended by a recent publication showing that the scaffold protein LIM Domain-Containing Protein 1 (LIMD1) is also involved in HIF-1 regulation in normoxia as well as in hypoxia.[@CIT0036] *LIMD1* was identified to be a HIF-1 target gene acting via a so far unknown negative feedback mechanism involving PHD2‐LIMD1‐VHL complex formation.", "\n\nWe set out to address the biological and physiological activity of the XPO1-inhibitor selinexor on the HIF-signaling pathway in 2D monolayer and 3D tumor spheroid culture models. ", "Upon selinexor treatment, 2D monolayer-cultured cells show a decrease in HIF-1α protein expression, HIF transcriptional activity and HIF-1 target gene expression in hypoxic conditions. ", "Moreover, we investigated the basic mechanism underlying selinexor-dependent HIF-inhibition in the same model demonstrating that it does not depend on the HIF-LIMD1 negative feedback mechanism. ", "Utilizing 3D tumor spheroid culture models, we determined that selinexor decreases cell viability, 3D tumor spheroid growth and HIF-1α protein expression in a model representing in vivo physiological conditions.

[ "Today's no-shit study says infertility can do a number on a couple's sex life. ", "Just like fertility!", "\n\n\nAccording to Slate's Sarah Elizabeth Richards, researched the Stanford have found that 40% of women dealing with infertility also suffer sexual problems, like lack of arousal and desire, compared to only 25% of women in general. ", "Hormone shots may be part of the cause, but researchers think the problems are mostly psychological. ", "Therapist Ronny Diamond says that for infertile women, \"Sex, rather than being a place where you can escape the world, becomes a reminder of what you can't do. ", "You can't make a baby.\" ", "She adds that the scheduled sex mandated by fertility treatments can be a turnoff: \"When the woman calls her husband at work and says 'I'm ovulating. ", "Come home. ", "We've got to do it now,' it ruins people's ideas of romantic conception.\"", "\n\nNone of this is a shock, unfortunately — as Richards notes, \"anyone who has had trouble getting or staying pregnant knows that infertility is hard on relationships,\" and it's not surprising that it can reduce sex drive as much as it increases conflict. ", "But it's interesting to note how many of the problems caused by infertility can also be caused by its opposite — efforts to have sex without having a baby. ", "Birth control pills, for instance, can lower libido and mess with body image and mood. ", "Anybody who's ever found a lost NuvaRing in the bed several days later knows how much fun that is, as do those who've experienced side effects from Plan B. And there's always the fear of these or other methods failing — an occasional mood-killer, I'd wager, for even the most careful contraceptor. ", "It's true that one of the perks of protected sex is relative freedom from worry — that \"place where you can escape the world\" — but just as no fertility treatment is guaranteed to generate a pregnancy, no birth control is 100% guaranteed to prevent one.", "\n\n\nAll this is not to trivialize the troubles of infertile women, who, if the Stanford study is correct, are disproportionately suffering. ", "Rather, I'd like to point out that 25% — the number of fertile women who experience sexual problems — is still really high. ", "This may be in part because women still bear the responsibility for the reproductive aspects of sex. ", "Some of this is biological — we are the ones with the wombs — but some of it is social: women are the ones judged when they don't procreate, or when they get pregnant too young or out of wedlock. ", "And the fact that all the myriad forms of hormonal birth control, with all their myriad side effects, must pass through our bodies is surely due in part to where the research money goes. ", "A male birth control pill would sure be nice, but so would a general recognition that whether the goal is preventing or creating a pregnancy, men need to be equal partners.", "\n\nWhen Sex Becomes A Chore [Slate]" ]
