What chamber is most inferior in the cochlea? Define cardiac sphincter What are the pulmonary veins? What organ system does the aorta belong to? Is the common iliac vein anterior or posterior to the femoral artery? Explain. What is the function of the umbilical vein?
In this optimization model, the spatial vessel organization is governed by cross-talk between vascular structures and the surrounding tissues, and involves integration of local metabolic and hemodynamic cues1,2,3. However, the molecular and cellular substrates that add organ specificity to the vascular...
Define the role of the endocrine system in homeostasis using two examples. How do organ systems maintain homeostasis? Homeostasis is a characteristic shared by all living organisms on the earth. Explain the importance of homeostasis. What processes does the n...
. Notably, type II Cdh genes with similar binding specificity are clustered in the same chromosome (Fig.1b). Since structural basis of the most N terminal Cdh extracellular domain is suggested to be an important determinant for the binding specificity42,43, we suspected that a...
During this period of metastasis development, tumor cells are actively adapting to the stresses of a different organ’s cellular millieu in order to ultimately grow in an uncontrolled manner. This transitional middle phase may provide a unique clinical opportunity, yet the underlying biology remains ...
The gut is an essential metabolic, endocrine, and immune organ inhabited by millions of microbes. Recently, our knowledge of the diversity of microorganisms in the human gut has exponentially increased with the development of high-throughput sequencing technologies [1]. The intestinal microorganism comm...
Communication, construction, and fluid control: lymphoid organ fibroblastic reticular cell and conduit networks 2021, Trends in Immunology Citation Excerpt : In the omentum, fat-associated lymphoid clusters (FALCs), known as milky spots, appear as dispersed immune cell aggregates underpinned by CCL19...
Using a 'heart-on-a-chip' that was fluidically connected to a 'liver-on-a-chip' we set out to discover whether it was possible to derive in vitro temporal PKPD relationships with the well characterized small molecule drug terfenadine. This multi-organ platform utilized a pumpless system and...

In order to gain insight into the molecular mechanisms involved in leg sensory organ patterning, we have analyzed a Hedgehog (Hh)- and Decapentaplegic (Dpp)-responsive enhancer of the h gene, which directs expression of h in a narrow stripe in the dorsal leg imaginal disc (the D-h stripe...
