The organ systems are specialized tissues that perform discrete functions. They are vital and thus have interdependencies. For instance, the heart and renal system both need and influence each other. When deficiency requirements of health and damaging factors lead to a weakened state, then the begin...
Once an eggcellis fertilized by a sperm, it will divide and become an embryo. In the embryo, there are stem cells that are capable of becoming all of the various cell types of the human body. For research, scientists get embryos in two ways. Many couples conceive by the process ofin ...

As a group directly related to human health, the function of gut micobiota and its relationship with drugs are worthy of our attention. When studying the interaction between drugs and gut microbiota, researchers found that some metabolites of microbiota play an important role in the process. Some...
they found that there werefour genes that encode transcription factorswhich were critical for reprograming the fibroblast cells:Oct4,Sox2,cMyc, andKlf4(often referred to as the “Yamanaka factors”). When transferred to mouse fibroblast cells using retroviral vectors, these factors could reactivate ...
Recently, there has been a growing interest in mimicking the structure of such a complex organ as the brain, which is a multiscale system that makes in vitro modelling a particular challenge. Aspects that are a challenge in Brain-on-Chip systems include: mimicking the brain microenvironment, th...
There are as many examples of OoCs as there are applications, making it difficult for new researchers to understand what makes one OoC more suited to an application than another. This Primer is intended to give an introduction to the aspects of OoC that need to be considered when developing ...
Take the pancreas for example. Pancreas releases insulin which helps metabolize sugar. If the pancreas stops working, you won't die, but you will become a diabetic which will damage your health and reduce your quality of life. That's why I take all organs- vital or accessory to be extreme...
用Quizlet學習並牢記包含ANS: A Hospitals that receive Medicare or Medicaid reimbursement must notify the local OPO in cases of impending death. It is the responsibility of the organ procurement organization, not the physician, to obtain family consent for
For example, some studies have shown that NK cells may promote insulitis, destroy insulin-producing islet cells and promote the development of type 1 diabetes (T1D)5–8. In sharp contrast, other studies have shown that NK cells may inhibit the intensity of inflammatory responses within the ...
