Description: It has been argued that Williams Syndrome (WS) and Specific Language Impairment (SLI) show developmental double dissociations. This has been put forward as an argument that language is a module which is biologically programmed and develops independently of other cognitive abilities. However there have been very few studies which have directly compared the two populations. In this article we compare individuals with WS with individuals with SLI on a number of verbal and non-verbal standardised tests as well as on their language abilities in a narrative task. The participants with WS performed similarly to the participants with SLI on the verbal standardised tests and in the narrative task (there were no significant differences between the two groups of participants) although they performed significantly lower on the non-verbal standardised tests in comparison to the participants with SLI. The results suggest that although there are dissociations between WS and SLI in the non-verbal domain, the two populations are very similar in the domain of morpho-syntax, hence there is no support for developmental double dissociations between these two populations.

The article is delivered in HTML format and is available in your Amazon.com Media Library immediately after purchase. You can view it with any web browser. Description: The DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) plays a critical role in DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair and in V(D)J recombination. DNA-PK also plays a very important role in triggering apoptosis in response to severe DNA damage or critically shortened telomeres. Paradoxically, components of the DNA-PK complex are present at the mammalian telomere where they function in capping chromosome ends to prevent them from being mistaken for double-strand breaks. In addition, DNA-PK appears to be involved in mounting an innate immune response to bacterial DNA and to viral infection. As DNA-PK localizes very rapidly to DNA breaks and phosphorylates itself and other damage-responsive proteins, it appears that DNA-PK serves as both a sensor and a transducer of DNA-damage signals. The many roles of DNA-PK in the mammalian cell are discussed in this review with particular emphasis on recent advances in our understanding of the phosphorylation events that take place during the activation of DNA-PK at DNA breaks.

Product Description The last decade has witnessed the delineation of innate immunity a new area which has revolutionized our understanding of host-parasite interactions and their impact on defense mechanisms in infectious and noninfectious diseases. This volume of the book series 'Contributions to Microbiology' provides an update of the current knowledge of this expanding field of research and highlights some of its most important aspects. In eleven state-of-the-art articles, eminent international experts in the field address topics such as the innate immune system in mammals and insects, microbial protein ligands, antimicrobial peptides, complement, antibacterial chemokines, the role of neutrophils and monocytes, oxidative innate immune defenses and the effect of aging on innate immunity. The book will be a valuable resource for microbiologists, immunologists, students, scientists of other related disciplines, and clinicians with an interest in infectious or immunological diseases.

Product Description "Mommie, What Is A Nigger?" The Case of the Centuries is a book with a word that seems to make many people run the other way. The Plaintiffs vs. Defendants. The reader will see that it starts out as though one is in court. The case is introduce with the opening statement. Information is given to the juror. The juror(s)(readers of all six chapters) listen to the lawyers, closing statement,and the verdict- suggested solution to burying the word "nigger" in the heart, mind, and action in all of those who believe that African Americans are niggers( sub-human). Each chapter in the book reveals the step by step making of the "nigger". Avoiding discussing the word will keep the human family divide. The word was borned out of a lie, and the researched information will disclose who this lie is planted on. The researched information that is cited in the book will reveal what some was taught against African Americans in particular. The spirit of that teaching is loose in the universe, and looks for those that it can use to carry out hate, racism, division, or anything that will place one group as superior, and the other group as inferior. The research will reveal what was used to make one group in the human family the "nigger". The book will also reveal that the word "nigger" is not just a word. The machination behind the word is destroying the human family. This is a good book for "book clubs" readers to read, and discuss together world wide.
