ACTIVATION OF FGF SIGNALING MEDIATES PROLIFERATIVE AND OSTEOGENIC DIFFERENCES BETWEEN NEURAL CREST DERIVED FRONTAL AND MESODERM PARIETAL DERIVED BONE.

Activation of FGF signaling mediates proliferative and osteogenic differences between neural crest derived frontal and mesoderm parietal derived bone.

As a culmination of efforts over the last years, our knowledge of the embryonic origins of the mammalian frontal and parietal cranial bones is unambiguous.Progenitor cells that subsequently give rise to frontal bone are of neural crest origin, while parietal bone progenitors arise from paraxial mesoderm.Given the unique qualities of neural crest ce

Programmatic implications of implementing the relational algebraic capacitated location (RACL) algorithm outcomes on the allocation of laboratory sites, test volumes, platform distribution and space requirements

Introduction: CD4 testing in South Africa is based on an integrated tiered service delivery model that matches testing demand with capacity.The National Health Laboratory Service has predominantly implemented laboratory-based CD4 testing.Coverage gaps, over-/under-capacitation and optimal placement of point-of-care (POC) testing sites need investig

miR-150 suppresses the proliferation and tumorigenicity of leukemia stem cells by targeting the Nanog signaling pathway

Proliferation, a key feature of cancer cells, accounts for the majority of cancer-related diseases resulting in mortality.MicroRNAs (miRNAs) plays important post-transcriptional modulation roles by acting on multiple signaling pathways, but the underlying mechanism in proliferation and tumorigenicity is unclear.Here, we identified the role of miR-1

MIMU/Odometer Fusion with State Constraints for Vehicle Positioning during BeiDou Signal Outage: Testing and Results

With the rapid development of autonomous vehicles, the Heater demand for reliable positioning results is urgent.Currently, the ground vehicles heavily depend on the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) and the Inertial Navigation System (INS) providing reliable and continuous navigation solutions.In dense urban areas, especially narrow streets
