20150049248 | CLOCK SYNCHRONIZATION FOR MULTI-PROCESSOR/MULTI-CHIPSET SOLUTION - Methods, systems, and devices are described for media synchronization. Multi-stream media processes may include media streams captured with respect to different clock rates. Multi-processor implementations may involve separate clocks associated with different media streams, such as audio and video, respectively. The separate clocks may tend to drift from one another, becoming further out of sync as time passes. Selecting a reference time of one of the processors to function as a “wall clock,” recording frame capture times with respect to the reference time, accounting for propagation delays, and transmitting frame capture times in terms of the reference time may aid in AV synchronization at a device where audio and video streams are received. | 02-19-2015 |

20080305959 | Laser microdissection and microarray analysis of breast tumors reveal estrogen receptor related genes and pathways - About 70% to 80% of breast cancers express estrogen receptor-α (ERα), and estrogens play important roles in the development and growth of hormone-dependent tumors. Together with lymph node metastasis, tumor size and histological grade, ER status is considered one of the prognostic factors in breast cancer, and an indicator for hormonal treatment. 147 genes and 112 genes with significant P-value and having significant differential expression between ER+ and ER− tumors were identified from the LCM data set and bulk tissue data set, respectively. 61 genes were found to be common in both data sets, while 85 genes were unique to the LCM data set and 51 genes were present only in the bulk tumor data set. Pathway analysis with the 85 genes using Gene Ontology suggested that genes involved in endocytosis, ceramide generation, Ras/ERK/Ark cascade, and JAT-STAT pathway may play roles related to ER. The gene profiling with LCM-captured tumor cells provides a unique approach to characterize and study epithelial tumor cells and to gain an insight into signaling pathways associated with ER. | 12-11-2008 |
