The analysis of solubility curves in the phase diagram permitted calculation of stability constants of the inclusion complexes formed. Photochemical stability of 1.4-dihydropyridine derivatives obeyed the 1 order kinetic equation. The photodegradation of NM, NR and NC was found to be a single stage ...
Skeletal muscle is greatly affected by aging, resulting in a loss of metabolic and physical function. However, the underlying molecular processes and how (lack of) physical activity is involved in age-related metabolic decline in muscle function in human
In concert with the superior and inferior recti, the oblique muscles can elevate and depress the eyes along the midline. The two oblique muscles attach directly to the bony orbit. The superior oblique originates from the body of the sphenoid, above and medial to the optic canal. The muscle ...
Skeletal muscle aging is a key contributor to age-related frailty and sarcopenia with substantial implications for global health. Here we profiled 90,902 single cells and 92,259 single nuclei from 17 donors to map the aging process in the adult human int
