AORTIC DISSECTION PRESENTING AS STROKE WITH FOCAL NEUROLOGIC DEFICITS: A CASE REPORT


Kinetic arrest during the drying of cellulose nanocrystal films from aqueous suspensions analogous to the freezing of thermal motions

Abstract A comprehensive understanding of controlling the iridescence of cellulose films by manipulating the alignment and read more helical pitch of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) is required to advance cellulose photonics and its optoelectronic applications.Aqueous suspensions of CNCs exhibit a cholesteric liquid crystal (LC) phase with structural

The zebrafish progranulin gene family and antisense transcripts

Abstract Background Progranulin is an epithelial tissue growth factor (also known as proepithelin, acrogranin and PC-cell-derived growth factor) that has been implicated in development, wound healing and in the progression of many cancers.The single mammalian progranulin gene encodes a glycoprotein precursor consisting of seven and one half tandeml

Variation in breeding practices and geographic isolation drive subpopulation differentiation, contributing to the loss of genetic diversity within dog breed lineages

Abstract Background Discrete breed ideals are not restricted to delimiting dog breeds from another, but also are key drivers of subpopulation differentiation.As genetic differentiation due to population fragmentation results in increased rates of inbreeding and loss of genetic diversity, detecting and alleviating the reasons of population fragmenta
