Cytotoxicity of ascorbate and other reducing agents towards cultured fibroblasts as a result of hydrogen peroxide formation
Several types of cultured fibroblasts, including chick embryo, human and mouse, were killed by the addition of sodium ascorbate at final concentrations of 0.05–0.25 mM to cultures at the time of… Expand

Correlation between the rates of aerobic glycolysis and glucose transport, unrelated to neoplastic transformation, in a series of BALB 3T3-derived cell lines.
The relationship between transformation, lactate production, and glucose transport was examined in a series of ten cell lines consisting of subclones of BALB 3T3 A31 cells and viral and chemical… Expand

Increased collagen synthesis in Kirsten sarcoma virus-transformed BALB 3T3 cells grown in the presence of dibutyryl cyclic AMP.
Abstract Growth of Kirsten sarcoma virus-transformed BALB 3T3 (Ki-3T3) cells in the presence of dibutyryl cyclic AMP (dbcAMP) resulted in alteration of morphology, inhibition of growth, and increased… Expand

Increased proline transport resulting from growth of normal and Kirsten sarcoma virus-transformed BALB 3T3 cells in the presence of N(6), O(2')-dibutyryl cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate.
Abstract Proline transport in Kirsten sarcoma virus-transformed BALB 3T3 (Ki-3T3) cells was increased approximately twofold by 0.5 m m dibutyryl cAMP (dbcAMP), and the increase was observed whether… Expand

Suppression of synthesis of pro-alpha 1(I) and production of altered pro-alpha 2(I) procollagen subunits in 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide-transformed fibroblasts.
The collagen phenotype of a 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide-transformed line of Syrian hamster embryo fibroblasts, NQT-SHE, was markedly altered from that of normal Syrian hamster embryo cells, which… Expand

A post-translational modification, unrelated to hydroxylation, in the collagenous domain of nonhelical pro-alpha 2(I) procollagen chains secreted by chemically transformed hamster fibroblasts.
Transformed Syrian hamster embryo (NQT-SHE) fibroblasts do not synthesize the pro-alpha 1 subunit of type I procollagen, but secrete two modified forms of the pro-alpha 2(I) subunit that migrate more… Expand

A simulation model for analyzing service times in a rotational position sensing disk system
TLDR
We have developed a model to aid in the evaluation of disk subsystem performance, with special emphasis on the rotational position sensing (RPS) feature due to its widespread use. Expand
