TUNEL Apoptotic Cell Detection in Tissue Sections: Critical Evaluation and Improvement

Modifications to the in situ TUNEL method for detection of apoptosis in paraffin-embedded tissue sections.

The in situ detection of cells undergoing apoptosis is increasingly important in the analysis of injury and degeneration in the central nervous system. Limited information is presently available on the quantification of apoptosis in paraffin-embedded brain tissue sections, a technique which would be most useful in the evaluation of archival tissue for diagnostic and experimental purposes. In th...

the relationship between learners critical thinking ability and their performance in the reading sections of the tofel and ielts test

the study reflected in this thesis aims at finding out relationships between critical thinking (ct), and the reading sections of tofel and ielts tests. the study tries to find any relationships between the ct ability of students and their performance on reading tests of tofel and academic ielts. however, no research has ever been conducted to investigate the relationship between ct and the read...

TUNEL vision spots apoptotic cells

By the early 1990s, scientists knew that programmed cell death, or apoptosis, was important for tissue development and homeostasis as well as for cancer progression. Because apoptotic cells activate nucleases to cleave their chromatin, cell death could be followed in vitro by extracting DNA from a population of tissue culture cells and running it out on an agarose gel to look for a characterist...

: metadiscourse in introduction sections of applied linguistics and physics research articles: exploring variation in frequency and type

abstract in written mode of language, metadiscourse markers are used commonly to help writers in general and academic writers in particular to produce coherent and professional texts. the purpose of the present study was to compare introduction sections of applied linguistics and physics articles regarding their use of interactive and interactional metadiscourse markers based on the model pro...
