In the constricting region and near the ends of the cells, the change of shape is opposite to that which would be due to a constant surface tension alone. The effect of streaming which may arise from a variable surface tension is considered. The effect of forces which arise in this manner...
An analysis of cell-type-specific epigenomic features reveals a relationship between epigenomic and mutational profiles; chromatin characteristics can explain a large proportion of mutational variance in cancer genomes and the mutational distribution can
Here, we used dual-cell patch-clamp recordings and imaging methods in bulb slices obtained from wild-type and transgenic rats with labeled GABAergic cells to test a number of predictions of the high-pass filtering model. We first directly compared the responsiveness of PG cells with that of ...
Cell 151, 138–152 (2012). This study combines lipidomic and transcriptomic analyses to show that macrophage-derived foam cells are associated with suppression, rather than activation, of inflammatory genes and that most of the changes in gene expression and lipid metabolism are triggered by the ...
Using a novel approach, we compute the generating functions of lv1k- and lv5k-shapes as well as the generating functions of all lv1k- and lv5k-shapes induced by all k-noncrossing, σ-canonical RNA structures for fixed n. By means of singularity analysis of the generating functions, we ...
It is worrisome that several pollutants can enhance the abundance of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the environment, including agricultural fungicides. As an important bioindicator for environmental risk assessment, earthworm is still a neglected focus that the effects of the fungicide carbendazim ...
Microsoft Office Visio 2003 is a shape-based diagramming program providing a wealth of built-in shapes that users can drag onto the drawing page to create drawings; many third-party shapes for use in Visio are available as well. Sometimes, however, when no built-in or third-party shapes ex...
order versus disorder.- 4 Simple carbohydrate chains of the periodic type.- 4.1 Conformational families.- 4.2 Occurrence, properties and function of the ribbon family.- 4.2.1 Extracellular carbohydrate composites.- 4.2.2 The plant cell wall.- 4.2.3 Carbohydrate sequences in plant cell walls.- ...
Shorter exposure to Triton X-100 did not result in sufficient separation of the ECM layer from disc proper cells; more than 15 min resulted in a loss of the cell layer and hence a loss of the required landmarks to identify peripodial versus disc proper ECM layers. After fixation, ...
Experimental investigations on the shape of a heap formed in a Hele Shaw cell either on a flat base or in a two-dimensional silo are presented. We have focused our attention on the shape dependence on mass flux and initial energy of particles poured into the cell. Two kinds of granular me...
