PURPOSE. Idarubicin is a synthetic anthracycline anticancer drug widely used in the treatment of some hematological malignancies. The studies in our laboratory have clearly demonstrated that idarubicin can undergo reductive bioactivation by NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase to free radicals with resulting…

Purpose. To determine the correlations/discrepancies of drug stabilities between in the homogenates of human culture cells and of human tissues. Methods. Amino acid/dipeptide monoester prodrugs of floxuridine were chosen as the model drugs. The stabilities (half-lives) of floxuridine prodrugs in…

As has been seen in previous issues, these current articles show a diversity of ideas and approaches to engineering design graphics.  Rodriguez's article demonstrates how 3-D computer graphics techniques can be applied to helping solve difficult real-world civil engineering problems. …

It was your volunteering that made my leadership easy and rewarding.  Thank you all.   As I end my short 12 month sting as Chair of the Engineering Design Graphics Division I want to thank the DIvision membership for your…

It has been difficult to understand the relationship between mediated images of poverty in telenovelas and the symbolic reproduction of inequalities in Brazil, due in part to two factors: 1) the denial of the structural causation of social classes; and…

Recent films seem to support the notion of a Brazilian film industry revival. However, a closer look reflects another possibility: a logic in the audiovisual production chain, in which the television industry plays a central role. According to logic, the…
