Human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) hold unprecedented potential to model human development and genetic disorders due to their capability to self-renew and differentiate into any somatic cell type. In the year of 2011, a number of iPSC disease models have been successfully developed for studying the mechanism of human diseases as well as establishing platforms for drug screening and te...

The aim of this paper is to prove a common fixed point theorem for nonexpansive type single valued mappings which include both continuous and discontinuous mappings by relaxing the condition of continuity by weak reciprocally continuous mapping. Our result is generalize and extends the corresponding result of Jhade et al. [P.K. Jhade, A.S. Saluja and R. Kushwah, Coincidence and fixed points of ...

Although it is well established that exercise training conditions the vasculature (Joyner and Green, 2009), the status of arterial function in long-term trained subjects (i.e., athletes, ATH) has been recently disputed (Green, 2013; Montero et al., 2013). The controversy arose as to whether vasodilator function was enhanced in ATH compared with untrained healthy peers (Green et al., 2013). This...

Recently, many new chaotic flows have been discovered that are not associated with a saddle point, including ones without any equilibrium points, with only stable equilibria, or with a line containing infinitely many equilibrium points [Jafari & Sprott, 2013, 2015; Jafari et al., 2013; Jafari et al., 2015b; Kingni et al., 2014; Lao et al., 2014; Molaie et al., 2013; Pham et al., 2014a; Pham et ...

Introduction Concerns about prenatal diagnosis of congenital renal disease (Morcel et al 2011; Gérard-Blanluet et al 2011; Amsalem et al 2011) and changes in the deterministic background, accounting new risk factors (Sun et al 2010; Harewood et al 2010; Martinovic-Bouriel et al 2010; Dührsen et al 2011, Demirel et al 2011), justify the normal development of the kidneys. Fetal ultrasound examina...

With 257 species known worldwide (Hansen, 1999; Short & Hebauer, 2006; Short & Fikáček, 2011; Gentili, 2012; Jia et al., 2013a; Jia et al, 2013b; Gentili, 2014), Laccobius Erichson is one of the most diverse genera of Hydrophilidae, most species having a relatively uniform convex, rounded appearance. To date only 26 species are known from sub-Saharan Africa (Gentili, 1981; Hebauer, 2006), 11 of...
