Reconstituting the reticular ER network – mechanistic implications and open questions

On weakly eR-open functions

The main goal of this paper is to introduce and study a new class of function via the notions of $e$-$theta$-open sets and $e$-$theta$-closure operator which are defined by Özkoç and Aslım [10] called weakly $eR$-open functions and $e$-$theta$-open functions. Moreover, we investigate not only some of their basic properties but also their relationships with other types of already existing topolo...

the effects of cooperative versus individual directed reading thinking activities on students inferential and referential questions

two groups of students were assigned as experimental and control ones, and were given instruction on directed reading-thinking activities and after some treatment, they were post-tested. although the initial pre-test did not show any significant differences, the final post-test result revealed that the cooperative reading comprehension helped the experimental group. the cooperative students’...

Reticular network of the human thymus.

To investigate the development of the reticular network of the thymus with aging and under pathologic conditions, we performed reticulin stains on the following samples; 5 fetal thymi (22 to 33 weeks of gestational age) and 35 postnatal thymi (less than 1 month to 33 years of age). The latter included 1 hyperplastic thymus, 4 pathologically involuted thymi and 1 physiologically involuted thymus...

The dynamic ER: experimental approaches and current questions.

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an extremely plastic and dynamic organelle. Its size and shape can undergo drastic changes to meet changing demands for ER-related functions, or as a response to drugs or pathogens. Because of the ER's key functions in protein and lipid synthesis, this organelle is a hotbed of detailed molecular analysis.
