Kidney cell-specific knockdown: anything but simple.
USING GENE KNOCKOUT STRATEGIES to help define the physiological and/or pathophysiological role(s) of factors produced by specific renal cell types presents substantial challenges. Renal cell-specific gene targeting, involving a Cre recombinase (Cre)-expressing transgene (either constitutively expressed or inducible) and a loxP-flanked (floxed) target allele, has been achieved in vivo in mouse p...
متن کاملStar clusters as simple stellar populations.
In this paper, I review to what extent we can understand the photometric properties of star clusters, and of low-mass, unresolved galaxies, in terms of population-synthesis models designed to describe 'simple stellar populations' (SSPs), i.e. groups of stars born at the same time, in the same volume of space and from a gas cloud of homogeneous chemical composition. The photometric properties pr...
متن کاملScaling relations in dynamical evolution of star clusters
We have carried out a series of small scale collisional N-body calculations of single-mass star clusters to investigate the dependence of the lifetime of star clusters on their initial parameters. Our models move through an external galaxy potential with a logarithmic density profile and they are limited by a cut-off radius. In order to find scaling relations between the lifetime of star cluste...
متن کاملMagellanic Cloud Star Clusters as Simple Stellar Populations
Integrated spectra have been obtained of 31 star clusters in the Magellanic Clouds (MC) and of 4 Galactic globular clusters. The spectra cover the wavelength range λλ3500 – 4700 Å at a resolution of 3.2 Å FWHM. The MC clusters primarily cover the age range <10 – 3 Gyr, and hence are well-suited to an empirical study of aging post-starburst stellar populations. An age-dating method is presented ...
متن کاملStar Clusters*
This review concentrates almost entirely on globular star clusters. It emphasises the increasing realisation that few of the traditional problems of star cluster astronomy can be studied in isolation: the influence of the Galaxy affects dynamical evolution deep in the core, and the spectrum of stellar masses; in turn the evolution of the core determines the highest stellar densities, and the ra...
