Glutathione S-transferase and cytochrome-P-450 polymorphism as risk factors for squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx. (1996)
Journal Article
Purpose While cigarette smoking and alcohol consumption are recognized covariates for laryngeal carcinoma, the role of genetic factors in determining individual susceptibility is unknown. We describe the influence of polymorphism in carcinogen-metab...

Epithelial ovarian cancer: influence of polymorphism at the glutathione S-transferase GSTM1 and GSTT1 loci on p53 expression (1996)
Journal Article
The importance of polymorphism in the glutathione S-transferase GSTM1, GSTT1 and, cytochrome P450, CYP2D6 loci in the pathogenesis of epithelial ovarian cancer has been assessed in two studies; firstly, a case-control study designed to determine the...

Excess barium in a K dwarf-white dwarf binary system. (1996)
Journal Article
We present spectroscopic evidence for an excess of the s-process element barium, in the rapidly rotating, K-dwarf component of the wide binary system 2REJ0357+283. The secondary star is a hot white dwarf (WD) and our result argues for a model where t... Read More about Excess barium in a K dwarf-white dwarf binary system..
German Politics and the Jews: Düsseldorf and Nuremberg, 1910-1933 (1996)
Book
This book is a scholarly reassessment of the ‘Jewish Question’ in Germany (1910–1933). It challenges the view that, following Hitler's rise to power, anti-Semitism radically increased among the majority of Germans. It argues that the Weimar Republic...

Multiple cutaneous basal cell carcinomas: glutathione S-transferase (GSTM1, GSTT1) and cytochrome P450 (CYP2D6, CYP1A1) polymorphisms influence tumour numbers and accrual. (1996)
Journal Article
The genetic factors that mediate the pathogenesis of multiple primary cutaneous basal cell carcinomas (BCC) are largely unclear. Thus, some patients suffer many BCC (>30) and/or rapid accrual (number of tumours/year from first presentation) of furthe...

Allelism at the glutathione S-transferase GSTM3 locus: interactions with GSTM1 and GSTT1 as risk factors for astrocytoma. (1996)
Journal Article
We describe studies to assess the influence of polymorphism in the human glutathione S-transferase GSTM3 gene on susceptibility to high grade astrocytoma. Immunohisto-chemical studies using a GSTM3-specific antiserum identified expression of the GSTM...

The appearance of broad H$α$ in BL Lacertae (1996)
Journal Article
We present optical spectropolarimetry confirming Vermeulen et al.' recent discovery of a broad Ha emission line in BL Lacertae. This feature, which is present at about the same strength in spectra taken two days apart, is comparable in width (FWHM ≈... Read More about The appearance of broad H$α$ in BL Lacertae.
2RE J0241-525: a nearby post-T Tauri visual binary system (1996)
Journal Article
We present high-spatial-resolution X-ray observations, photometry and spectroscopy of the two low-mass, active stars proposed as optical counterparts to the extreme ultraviolet source 2RE J0241 —525 (=EUVE J0241—530). It is confirmed that both stars,... Read More about 2RE J0241-525: a nearby post-T Tauri visual binary system.
Anti-ganglioside antibodies in patients with rheumatoid arthritis complicated by peripheral neuropathy (1996)
Journal Article
Gangliosides are a diverse class of glycolipids found in the plasma membrane of mammalian cells and are particularly abundant in cells of the nervous system. Serum antibodies to gangliosides have been detected in various neurological disorders with s...

Polymorphism at the glutathione S-transferase locus GSTM3: interactions with cytochrome P450 and glutathione S-transferase genotypes as risk factors for multiple cutaneous basal cell carcinoma. (1996)
Journal Article
The influence of polymorphism in the glutathione S-transferase, GSTM3 gene on susceptibility to cutaneous basal cell carcinoma (BCC) has been investigated. We have reported previously two GSTM3 alleles, GSTM3*A and GSTM3*B, distinguished by a recogni...

GREEN PARTIES, NONVIOLENCE AND POLITICAL OBLIGATION (1996)
Book Chapter
The green movement has posed some tough questions for traditional justifications of democracy. Should the natural world have rights? Can we take account of the interests of future generations? But questions have also been asked of the greens. Could t... Read More about GREEN PARTIES, NONVIOLENCE AND POLITICAL OBLIGATION.

Glutathione S-transferase GSTT1 genotypes and susceptibility to cancer: studies of interactions with GSTM1 in lung, oral, gastric and colorectal cancers. (1996)
Journal Article
Allelism in glutathione S-transferase GSTM1 and GSTT1 has been suggested as a risk factor in various cancers. Accordingly, we describe a group of case-control studies carried out to identify associations between GSTT1 genotypes and susceptibility to...

Wind-accretion induced rapid rotation and a new class of active star (1996)
Journal Article
A physical model is presented to explain the occurrence of wide binary systems discovered at EUV wavelengths, such as 2RE J0044 + 093, which consist of a hot white dwarf and an ultra-rapidly rotating K-dwarf. It is difficult to explain the rapid rota... Read More about Wind-accretion induced rapid rotation and a new class of active star.
Is 2RE J0357+283 the most coronally active star in the Galaxy? (1996)
Journal Article
The late-type stellar counterpart to the EUV source 2RE J0357+283 is found to be an ultra-fast rotating K2V star, with a rotation period of 8.76 hrs and vsini of 141+/-5km/s. If this were the only source of the EUV emission, then it would be the most... Read More about Is 2RE J0357+283 the most coronally active star in the Galaxy?.
Are there any isolated old neutron stars in the ROSAT Wide Field Camera survey? (1996)
Journal Article
We present the results of Monte Carlo simulations to predict the number of isolated old neutron stars (IONs) that are observed in the ROSAT Wide Field Camera (WFC) survey as a result of accretion-powered extreme ultraviolet (EUV) emission. Magnetic f... Read More about Are there any isolated old neutron stars in the ROSAT Wide Field Camera survey?.
