The stomach is a crucial organ in the digestive system, serving as a temporary receptacle for the storage and mechanical distribution of food before it is passed into the intestine. It is located in the anterior portion of the abdominal cavity in most vertebrates. ...
It has been suggested by these workers that observed differences in the intercepts of the regression lines of the body density on the logarithm of the sum of four skinfolds, between men and women and between different age groups, may be explained in part by differences in the distribution of...
Distribution of Nerves in humans (top) and the Neuron (bottom)The central nervous system contains the brain and the spinal cord, while the peripheral nervous system includes nerves and ganglia that are present outside the brain and spinal cord. Through the axons, every part of the body gets ...
(EVOS FL Imaging System, Thermo Fisher). Size distribution, monodispersity, circularity, amount of cores and shell thickness were analyzed using ImageJ software. To visualize the hollow nature of the microcapsules, 0.5 mg/ml 2000 kDa Dextran-FITC was added to the second microjet when ...
2 Detailed distribution of cellular mass turnover rates of human cells by cell type. Presentation of the cellular mass turnover rates of human cells at higher resolution that in Fig. 2, which describes only the three largest groups of cell types (gastrointestinal cells, lymphocytes, and lung ...
Fat distribution is modulated by sex steroids Striking sex differences arise during puberty: the increase in body weight in boys is primarily due to increases in lean mass whereas in girls due to increases in fat mass; typical android and gynoid fat distributions also appear for the first time ...
From a therapeutic point of view, albumin is of interest as it binds a range of chemical drugs. This could be an advantage or a disadvantage depending on the affinity for albumin, as too strong binding would not be beneficial for distribution of the free and active form of the drug. On ...
On average, for each person on the globe, anthropogenic mass equal to more than his or her bodyweight is produced every week. This quantification of the human enterprise gives a mass-based quantitative and symbolic characterization of the human-induced epoch of the Anthropocene. This is a ...
Skeletal muscle makes up 40% of our body mass, is essential for movement and has pivotal roles in metabolism and immune regulation1,2,3. The major components of skeletal muscle, the multinucleated myofibers (MFs), are classified into ‘slow-twitch’ (type I) and ‘fast-twitch’ (type IIA...
