Apoptosis-related genes expressed in cardiovascular development and disease: an EST approach

development and implementation of an optimized control strategy for induction machine in an electric vehicle

in the area of automotive engineering there is a tendency to more electrification of power train. in this work control of an induction machine for the application of electric vehicle is investigated. through the changing operating point of the machine, adapting the rotor magnetization current seems to be useful to increase the machines efficiency. in the literature there are many approaches wh...

Apoptosis as an instrument in cardiovascular development.

Cell death as a phenomenon in embryonic development was first described over 100 years ago. Approximately 30 years ago the process was named apoptosis, and its involvement is now recognized in many life processes, in virtually every animal species, and from fertilization to the death of an organism. In cardiovascular development, it coincides with major developmental processes in specific time ...

Searching the Expressed Sequence Tag (EST) Databases: Panning for Genes

The genomes of living organisms contain many elements, including genes coding for proteins. The portions of the genes expressed as mature mRNA, collectively known as the transcriptome, represent only a small part of the genome. The expressed sequence tag (EST) databases contain an increasingly large part of the transcriptome of many species. For this reason, these databases are probably the mos...

Discovering Fragrance Biosynthesis Genes from Vanda Mimi Palmer Using the Expressed Sequence Tag (EST) Approach

Apoptosis in cardiovascular disease.

Cardiologists are well acquainted with cell death due to ischaemic necrosis in the myocardium. Loss of the integrity of the cell membrane leads to leakage of intracellular dehydrogenases and kinases, as well as structural proteins such as troponin T, into the interstitial spaces and ultimately into the plasma. Fluid and ions flood into the cell causing the cytoplasmic swelling which is observed...
