Abstract
The study presents an ab-initio based framework for the automated construction of microkinetic mechanisms considering correlated uncertainties in all energetic parameters and estimation routines. 2000 unique microkinetic models were generated within the uncertainty space of the BEEF-vdW functional for the oxidation reactions of representative exhaust gas emissions from stoichiometric combustion engines over Pt(111) and compared to experiments through multiscale modeling. The ensemble of simulations stresses the importance of considering uncertainties. Within this set of first-principles-based models, it is possible to identify a microkinetic mechanism that agrees with experimental data. This mechanism can be traced back to a single exchange-correlation functional, and it suggests that Pt(111) could be the active site for the oxidation of light hydrocarbons. The study provides a universal framework for the automated construction of reaction mechanisms with correlated uncertainty quantification, enabling a DFT-constrained microkinetic model optimization for other heterogeneously catalyzed systems.

Abstract
Using natural gas and sustainable biogas as feed, high-temperature pyrolysis represents a potential technology for large-scale hydrogen production and simultaneous carbon capture. Further utilization of solid carbon accruing during the process (i. e., in battery industry or for metallurgy) increases the process's economic chances. This study demonstrated the feasibility of gas-phase methane pyrolysis for hydrogen production and carbon capture in an electrically heated high-temperature reactor operated between 1200 and 1600 °C under industrially relevant conditions. While hydrogen addition controlled methane conversion and suppressed the formation of undesired byproducts, an increasing residence time decreased the amount of byproducts and benefited high hydrogen yields. A temperature of 1400 °C ensured almost full methane conversion, moderate byproduct formation, and high hydrogen yield. A reaction flow analysis of the gas-phase kinetics revealed acetylene, ethylene, and benzene as the main intermediate products and precursors of carbon formation.

Abstract
Methane pyrolysis is a very attractive and climate-friendly process for hydrogen production and the sequestration of carbon as solid material. The formation of soot particles in methane pyrolysis reactors needs to be understood for technology scale-up calling for appropriate soot growth models. A monodisperse model is coupled with a plug flow reactor model and elementary-step reaction mechanisms to numerically simulate processes in methane pyrolysis reactors, namely, the chemical conversion of methane to hydrogen, formation of C-C coupling products and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and growth of soot particles. The soot growth model accounts for the effective structure of the aggregates by calculating the coagulation frequency from the free-molecular regime to the continuum regime. It predicts the soot mass, particle number, area, and volume concentration, along with the particle size distribution. For comparison, experiments on methane pyrolysis are carried out at different temperatures and collected soot samples are characterized using Raman spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and dynamic light scattering (DLS).

Abstract
AbstractIn this work, two palladium-based catalysts with either ZSM-5 or Zeolite Y as support material are tested for their performance in selective catalytic reduction of NOx with hydrogen (H2-SCR). The ligh-toff measurements in synthetic exhaust gas mixtures typical for hydrogen combustion engines are supplemented by detailed catalyst characterization comprising N2 physisorption, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), hydrogen temperature programmed reduction (H2-TPR) and ammonia temperature programmed desorption (NH3-TPD). Introducing 10% or 20% TiO2 into the catalyst formulations reduced the surface area and the number of acidic sites for both catalysts, however, more severely for the Zeolite Y-supported catalysts. The higher reducibility of the Pd particles that was uncovered by H2-TPR resulted in an improved catalytic performance during the light-off measurements and substantially boosted NO conversion. Upon exposition to humid exhaust gas, the ZSM-5-supported catalysts showed a significant drop in performance, whereas the Zeolite Y-supported catalyst kept the high levels of conversion while shifting the selectivity from N2O more toward NH3 and N2. The 1%Pd/20%TiO2/HY catalyst subject to this work outperforms one of the most active and selective benchmark catalyst formulations, 1%Pd/5%V2O5/20%TiO2-Al2O3, making Zeolite Y a promising support material for H2-SCR catalyst formulations that allow efficient and selective NOx-removal from exhaust gases originating from hydrogen-fueled engines.

Abstract
Spatially resolved operando HERFD-XANES (high energy resolution fluorescence detected X-ray absorption near edge structure) complemented by CO concentration gradient profiles along the catalyst bed (SpaciPro) was used to identify the dominant reaction paths for the low and high temperature CO oxidation on Pt/CeO2 and Pt/Al2O3. At low temperatures, features associated with CO adsorption on Pt were found for both catalysts. During the oxidation reaction light-off, the evolution of the spectral and catalytic profile diverged along the catalyst bed. The CO oxidation rate was high on Pt/CeO2 from the beginning of the catalyst bed with CO being adsorbed on Pt, whereas low CO conversion due to strong CO poisoning was found on Pt/Al2O3. This correlation of the CO concentration gradient with unique insight by HERFD-XANES gave direct proof of the crucial contribution of the Pt-CeO2 perimeter sites overcoming the CO self-inhibition effect at low temperatures.

Abstract
Background: Several colorectal cancer susceptibility disease loci have been discovered through genome-wide association studies. However most of the variants were originally identified in Caucasian populations. Aim: To analyze the role of 20 known risk SNPs for colorectal cancer. Methods: Given that linkage disequilibrium is highly dependent on population demographic history and admixture background, we studied 20 risk SNPs in a pooled sample of 955 cases and 968 controls from admixed populations in Colombia. Results: The replication was reached for 11 out of 20 nominally associated SNPs; with allelic odds ratios (OR) ranging from 1.14 to 1.41, indicating a minimal increase in risk individually, however coinheritance of those SNPs resulted in an overall OR = 5.4 (95% CI: 3.052-9.731, P = 1.16E−08). Most of the variants followed a recessive model consistent with significant homozygous ORs distributed between 1.3 and 1.65. Among the most associated markers we found: rs4939827 (18q21.1, P = 7.35E−6), rs10411210 (19q13.11, P = 0.001), rs10795668 (10p14, P = 0.0024), rs4444235 (14q.2.2, P = 0.005), rs961253 (20p12.3, P = 0.006), rs16892766 (8q23.3, P = 0.011) and rs1050547 (8q24.21, P = 0.017). Conclusion: Our findings in Colombia have addressed the admixture and how this has influenced the risk associated with the known/unknown colorectal cancer regions, providing a comprehensive vision about several CRC-susceptibility SNPs identified in European populations, which also resulted, associated with an increased risk to CRC in the Colombian population, even though frequency and genetic structure differences accounted for those nonreplicated SNPs.

Abstract
Angiogenesis, or neovascularization, is known to play an important role in the neoplastic progression leading to metastasis. CD31 or Factor VIII-related antigen (F VIII RAg) immunohistochemistry is widely used in experimental studies for quantifying tumor neovascularization in immunocompromised animal models implanted with transformed human cell lines. Quantification, however, can be affected by variations in the methodology used to measure vascularization including antibody selection, antigen retrieval (AR) pretreatment, and evaluation techniques. To examine this further, we investigated the microvessel density (MVD) and the intensity of microvascular staining among five different human tumor xenografts and a mouse syngeneic tumor using anti-CD31 and F VIII RAg immunohistochemical staining. Different AR methods also were evaluated. Maximal retrieval of CD31 was achieved using 0.5 M Tris (pH 10) buffer, while maximum retrieval of F VIII RAg was achieved using 0.05% pepsin treatment of tissue sections. For each optimized retrieval condition, anti-CD31 highlighted small vessels better than F VIII RAg. Furthermore, the MVD of CD31 was significantly greater than that of F VIII RAg decorated vessels (p<0.001). The choice of antibody and AR method has a significant affect on immunohistochemical findings when studying angiogenesis. One also must use caution when comparing studies in the literature that use different techniques and reagents.

Abstract
Tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) activity of bone is a suitable biochemical marker for osteoclastic bone resorption. Qualitatively, the histochemical distribution of TRAP has been used to identify osteoclasts responsible for bone resorption; however, there have been few attempts to quantify TRAP localization. We describe a method for evaluating bone resorption by quantifying area percentages of positive TRAP localization using image analysis. Mouse tibiae were paraffin embedded following demineralization in disodium ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid. Longitudinal sections of tibia were cut from 15 levels in the left and the right limbs of six mice (180 sections total) and stained for TRAP distribution. Positive TRAP localization was quantified by pixel area count and reported as a percentage of the total tissue area specified. The 1.85 mm2 region of interest was placed at the midpoint of the epiphyseal growth plate containing the provisional calcification layer and the primary spongiosa, while excluding cortical bone of each mouse tibia. The percentage of TRAP localization ranged from 0.95 to 1.31% and was not significantly different from level to level or limb to limb in each mouse (p > 0.100). Within the same region of interest, an osteoclast count along the bone perimeter also was performed. We demonstrated a strong correlation (r2 = 0.903) between the conventional histomorphometric osteoclast index and positive TRAP localization, validating the latter as an alternative method to assess bone resorption. Quantitative analysis of TRAP is significant because it allows statistical comparisons between treatment groups, promotes precise pathological diagnoses and facilitates a reference data base that may aid the study of bone related diseases involving increased bone resorption.

Abstract
Involution of the thymus and alterations in the development of thymocytes are the most prominent features of age-related immune senescence. We have carried out a comparative analysis of thymocyte and stroma in rapid thymic involution DBA/2 (D2) strain of mice compared with slow involution C57BL/6 (B6) strain of mice. Analysis of mice at 15 months of age suggested an age-related decrease in the thymocyte cell count, a block in the development of T cells and cortical involution in D2 mice compared with 3-month-old mice. TUNEL (terminal-deoxynucleotidyl-transferase-mediated dUTP-digoxigenin nick end labelling) staining and fluorescence-activated cell sorter (FACS) analysis showed that there was a significant increase in apoptotic cells in the cortex region of thymus in 15-month-old D2 mice compared with the same aged B6 mice. The thymocyte proliferation rate, as assessed by bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) staining and [3H]-thymidine incorporation assay, was lower in 3-month-old D2 mice compared with the same age B6 mice. Immunohistochemical staining showed that the arrangement of MTS (mouse thymus stromal)-10+ epithelial cells and MTS-16+ connective tissue staining pattern had become disorganized in 15-month-old D2 mice but remained intact in B6 mice of the same age. These results suggest that, in D2 mice, both the thymocytes and stromal cells exhibit age-related defects, and that the genetic background of mice plays an important role in determining age-related alterations in thymic involution.

Abstract
Clinical observation, as well as epidemiological and research data, suggest that female gonadal hormones influence the course of panic disorder (PD). Panicogenic agents such as pentagastrin are useful tools with which to study the pathophysiology of panic attacks. Nine women with PD were randomly assigned to receive, in a crossover design, a 3-day pretreatment with medroxyprogesterone acetate (MP) prior to an injection of pentagastrin, and a 3-day pretreatment with a placebo prior to another injection of pentagastrin. The panic response and the anxiety response to pentagastrin were decreased after MP pretreatment. These preliminary results support the use of laboratory models for investigations of the interactions between progestins and anxiety.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The authors sought to determine whether the administration of flumazenil would induce marked panic symptoms in women suffering from premenstrual dysphoric disorder. METHOD Ten women with premenstrual dysphoric disorder and 11 comparison subjects were injected with flumazenil or placebo in a double-blind, randomized, balanced crossover design in a single session in the luteal phase of their menstrual cycles. RESULTS Flumazenil induced a much greater panic response in the women with premenstrual dysphoric disorder than in the comparison subjects. CONCLUSIONS These preliminary results are consistent with a dysregulation of the g-aminobutyric acid A/benzodiazepine receptor complex during the premenstruum of women suffering from premenstrual dysphoric disorder.
