If being integrated into pre-existing islets would be a key element for ADIP cells to be functional, then near-total ablation of β-cells with high dose streptozotocin (STZ) would most likely undermine the ability of ADIP cells to infiltrate the islets and restore normoglycemia. Therefore, to...
In contrast, during metaphase and anaphase, microtubules are the dominant fibrous element of the spindle. The microtubules interact with chromosomes during these phases by joining to true kinetochores. Neither treatment with cytochalasin B or fixation with a low concentration of osmium tetroxide affects ...
iKoTgVps35, complemented mutants, or parental parasites were fixed overnight at 4 °C with 2.5% glutaraldehyde/4% paraformaldehyde prepared 0.1 M cacodylate buffer, cells were fixed in 2.5% glutaraldehyde prepared in 0.1 M cacodylate buffer and post-fixed in 1% osmium tetroxide in the same ...
Acinetobacter baumannii is a critical opportunistic pathogen associated with nosocomial infections. The high rates of antibiotic-resistance acquisition make most antibiotics ineffective. Thus, new medical countermeasures are urgently needed. Outer membra
The actinolite trace element analyses were done at the Micro Analysis Facility (MAF) at Memorial University of Newfoundland, using a Thermo Finnigan Element XR high-resolution (HR), double-focusing magnetic sector-inductively coupled-plasma mass spectrometer (HR-ICPMS), coupled to a GeoLas 193-nm...
Manipulating the tumor immune contexture towards a more active state can result in better therapeutic outcomes. Here we describe an easily accessible bacterial biomineralization-generated immunomodulator, which we name Ausome (Au + [exo]some). Ausome com
To test whether loss-of-functiontlkmay promote cell survival in the developing retina, we studied atlkmutant. As a member of the conserved serine/threonine kinase family, TLK regulates cell cycle progression and chromatin assembly.34A P-element-mediated loss-of-function mutant,tlkl(1)G0054, has...

A magneto-optical recording element comprises (A) an optically transparent dimensionally stable substrate and (B) a thermally alterable recording layer which contains an amorphous lantha
