This is a concept that can be poorly understood but is the basis for experiments such as somatic cell cloning. I have found the analogy useful across all year levels at high schools, and with the increasing penetration of DNA-related content into lower year levels it becomes even more importa...
with the most prominent being hematopoiesis and immunoregulation [36]. Hence, another plausible explanation for hepatic immune tolerance lies in the liver’s unique regulatory mechanisms. In contrast to cells in other organs, many liver-resident cells (whether parenchymal or ...

Sooner or later a science teacher will require you or your child to make some type of a visual model for a science project. An object that is relatively easy to create a model of is a cell. Whether the focus is on human, animal or plant cells, these models can be relatively easy to...
Albeit, it is not known whether PiT1 has transceptor function, it is important to notice that if there is analogy to the transceptor function of Pho84, a PiT1 Pi transport knock-out mutant, as, e.g., the PiT1 S128A mutation shown to be able to rescue the impairment of proliferation ...
By the analogy of surface patterns these physical agents are free-standing nanowires or nanopillars dispersed in solution. Yet, their ready incorporation and accumulation in circulating biological fluids and general cytotoxicity make their medical use impractical. By contrast, surface topographies are ...
than the tracking and trading of other kinds of assets, such as real estate, according to Graff. He used the analogy of the popular real estate website, theMultiple Listing Service, saying there is no equivalent public “MLS” that serves as a property records registry for stem cell ...
There's more DNA-dissing is going on, this time in a piece in Aeon arguing that it is bad for society and for biology to think of the cell as an assembly line of molecules controlled by a "boss" in the nucleus. The...
4a). In this context, the virtual cell behaves as a reference oscillator for all the other cells. Using the basketball players analogy, this is like projecting a virtual player on the wall and asking the real players to bounce the balls in synchrony with the virtual player. Mathematical ...
THEMIS plays an indispensable role in T cells, but its mechanism of action has remained highly controversial. Using the systematic proximity labeling methodology PEPSI, we identify THEMIS as an uncharacterized substrate for the phosphatase SHP1. Saturate
