Enhanced PRDX I and VI expression is strongly associated with bladder cancer development. Moreover, enhanced PRDX I and VI expression is also positively associated with a low rate of bladder cancer recurrence and progression. It might be useful as a marker for assessing the recurrence or progression of human bladder cancer.

Let A b (E) be the Banach algebra of all complex-valued bounded continuous functions on the closed unit ball B E of a complex Banach space E and holomorphic in the interior of B E and let A u (E) be the closed subalgebra of those functions which are uniformly continuous on B E . For the case E = M 0 w whose bidual is a Marcinkiewicz sequence space M w , we describe some sufficient conditions for a set to be a boundary of either A b (E) or A u (E). Moreover, we consider some analogous problems on M 0

We study the relations between boundaries for algebras of holomorphic functions on Banach spaces and complex convexity of their balls. In addition, we show that the Shilov boundary for algebras of holomorphic functions on an order continuous sequence space X is the unit sphere S X if X is locally c-convex. In particular, it is shown that the unit sphere of the Orlicz-Lorentz sequence space λ ϕ,w is the Shilov boundary for algebras of holomorphic functions on λ ϕ,w if ϕ satisfies the δ 2 -condition.2000 Mathematics Subject Classification. 46E50, 46B20, 46B45.

The expansion of the social computing environment as a new basis for socioeconomic activities could enhance the quality of life of older adults, but also it could make the problem of digital divide more serious. In this study, the research directions and agenda of social computing for an aging society are presented, which have two major directions: basic study and applied study. Regarding human aspects in social computing mainly dealt with in the basic study, existing research and related theories on cognitive characteristics, information usage patterns, and social network site use of older adults were examined. In the applied study, a study about the most effective contents application and interfaces through user needs analysis, usage context analysis, prototype design, and so on, was conducted. Those studies are discussed to develop applications on a PC platform, mobile platform, and IPTV platform targeting the older adults population.
