Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) primarily affects young individuals and is a leading cause of total hip arthroplasty in this population. Joint-preserving regenerative therapies involving core decompression (CD), enhanced with cells, growth facto
Fiery and hotheaded, the Human Torch burns up the sky with an unquenchable love of adventure and always has the backs of his family, the Fantastic Four.
A caninized human anti-human IL-4Rα antibody is considered “specific” for canine IL-4Rα (or binding with specificity) if its binding is determinative of the presence of canine IL-4Rα in a biological sample obtained from a canine, or if it is capable of altering the activity of ca...
After washing, sections were incubated with appropriate secondary antibodies Alexa Flour 488 goat anti-mouse IgG1 (1:400; A-21121, Invitrogen), Alexa Flour 647 goat anti-mouse IgG2b (1:400; A-21242, Invitrogen), Alexa Flour 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H + L) (1:400; A-11029, Invi...
Here, we have defined the expression patterns of human ephrinB2, EphB4, and EphB2 in normal vessels of neonates (i.e. umbilici) and adults and compared them with those in congenital venous malformations. In adults, normal vessels of the skin, muscle, and legs express ephrinB2 and EphB2 ...
For example, in some New Guinea societies, initiates crawl through the spread legs of the elder men as if to be reborn into society. They emerge from the “womb” of the initiation as a new man. These rituals can have a profound effect. For example, among the Kalenjin of Kenya, the ...

of a tambourine, the click of castanettes, and the drone of a monotonous song, the swarthy god engaged in a frenzied dance, crouching on his hams like a tailor, sweating like a pig, and bounding about with an agility which testified to the strength and elasticity of his divine legs. ...
—which respectively overlap and are immediately upstream of genes involved in body growth processes—contain alleles that are simultaneously strongly associated with longer legs in AL lizards and occur in regions of high genetic differentiation relative to the fire ant-unexposed TN and AR populations....
the experimenter tried to stroke the cheek of the animal for at least 1 s but for not longer than 3 s. The avoidance distance was estimated at the moment of goat withdrawal as the distance between the observer’s hand and the animal’s head with a resolution of 10 cm. If the animal ...
