Compared to those tissue stem cells existing in adult tissues or organs, embryonic stem cells (ESCs) derived from the inner cell mass of blastocysts are pluripotent which can form three germ layers (ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm) (Thomson et al., 1998). In addition to ESCs, human-induced...
3c). Taking the negatively charged wall of the microchannel as an example, when the liquid contacts the negatively charged wall of the microchannel, the cations in the liquid gather on the wall of the microchannel to form a thin electric double layer (EDL) (0.1 nm-10 nm). Under the ...
Aβ peptides are classified into two major isoforms composed of 40 or 42 amino acids (Aβ40 and Aβ42), with Aβ42 being the more toxic form which plays an essential role in the pathogenesis of AD. We investigated whether YXT and its herbal components could inhibit the Aβ42 ...
Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), the most common form of renal cell carcinoma, is characterized by a relatively low mutation rate with few mutations shared among patients. To investigate intratumor heterogeneity at the individual cell level in ccRCC, WES was conducted on 20 single ccRCC ...
e Visualization of TLS-like domain detection of SpaDo and other methods (BayesSpace, SEDR, SpaGCN, Scanpy, and Seurat v4) on 4 RCC spatial transcriptomic datasets Full size image The spatial domains detected by SpaDo form a multi-resolution schema hierarchically, enabling the characterization of...
[416]. The release of this truncated form of Tau is increased upon synaptic activity [216]. However, a study investigating the level of truncation in AD patient brains has shown that there is a relative increase in N-terminal truncations of Tau in AD patients as compared to controls [505...

Generally, some form of surgical intervention is recommended. Bisphosphonates are frequently used in the treatment of FD. Strengthening exercises are recommended to help maintaining the musculature around the FD bone and minimize the risk for fracture. Treatment of all endocrinopathies is required. ...
The domestic pig is known as an excellent model for human immunology and the two species share many pathogens. Susceptibility to infectious disease is one of the major constraints on swine performance, yet the structure and function of genes comprising t
While BMP signaling plays a central role in instructing pluripotent cells to form epidermis, it is the other branch of the TGF-beta that directs mesendodermal fates. Members of the Activin/ Nodal/Vg1/GDF1/TGF-beta subfamily act via pSmad2/3 to activate mesodermal and endodermal target ge...
