introduction : there are different applications for cooling in rehabilitation and there is also a controversy in results of applying ice on limb and its effects on motorneurons excitability. methods : this study was done to determine the effect of applying controlled cooling (rubbing cold ointment with 3°c temperature) on the spinal skin (around t place of s root nerve) on the excitability of s...

The adhesive mechanisms allowing hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPC) homing to the bone marrow (BM) after BM transplantation are poorly understood. We investigated the role of endothelial selectins and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) in this process. Lethally irradiated recipient mice deficient in both P-and E-selectins (P/E-/-), reconstituted with minimal numbers (</=5 x 10(4)) of ...

E-selectin is a cell-adhesion molecule of the vascular endothelium that promotes essential leukocyte rolling in the early inflammatory response by binding to glycoproteins containing the tetrasaccharide sialyl Lewis(x) (sLe(x)). Efficient leukocyte recruitment under vascular flow conditions depends on an increased lifetime of E-selectin/ligand complexes under tensile force in a so-called catch-...

It is of no doubt that social media sites have become the most dominated subject in today life. However, the effect of those websites has widely disseminated not only into social life but into the business world as well. Recruitment is one of the topics that have influence by social networking sites. Previous studies have shown growing use of social networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter an...
