Numerous CCT domain genes are known to control flowering in plants. They belong to the CONSTANS-like (COL) and PREUDORESPONSE REGULATOR (PRR) gene families, which in addition to a CCT domain possess B-box or response-regulator domains, respectively. Ghd7 is the most recently identified COL gene to have a proven role in the control of flowering time in the Poaceae. However, as it lacks B-box dom...

[1] Approximately 10,000 UV irradiance spectra resulting from 2 years of continuous measurements in Germany were used as a database to analyze the effect of cloudiness on spectral UV irradiance. Values of spectral cloud modification factors (CMF) were derived by modeling a corresponding clear-sky irradiance spectrum for every UV measurement under cloudy conditions. The total set of CMF values w...

Apelin peptide analogues displaying bias towards G protein signalling pathways have beneficial cardiovascular actions compared with the native peptide in humans in vivo. Our aim was to determine whether small molecule agonists could retain G protein bias. We have identified a biased small molecule, CMF-019, and characterised it in vitro and in vivo. In competition radioligand binding experiment...

The success of craniomaxillofacial (CMF) surgery depends not only on the surgical techniques, but also upon an accurate surgical planning. However, surgical planning for CMF surgery is challenging due to the absence of a patient-specific reference model. In this paper, we present a method to automatically estimate an anatomically correct reference shape of jaws for the patient requiring orthogn...

Chondromyxoid fibroma (CMF) is a rare benign primary tumor which usually affects the metaphyses of the long bone of the lower extremities in childhood and young adults. Rarely, CMF occurs in the skull base and parasinuses, which may be difficult to distinguish from chondrosarcoma or chordoma and other tumors in the head. It is composed of chondroid, myxoid, and fibrous tissue growth in a lobula...

Chondromyxoid fibroma (CMF) is one of the rarest benign tumors of cartilaginous origin. It accounts for less than 0.5% of bone tumors and less than two percent of benign bone tumors. It is composed of a mixture of chondroid, myxoid, and fibrous tissues. The diagnosis of CMF depends upon its characteristic histological appearance like a lobular pattern with stellate-shaped cells in a myxoid or c...

Chondromyxoid fibroma (CMF) is a benign tumor which usually occurs in skeletal long bones. Its presence in zygoma is extremely rare. The patient was a 47-year-old female, with chief complaint of painful swelling in the left side of zygoma since 1 month ago after a long-lasting painless swelling for about 15 years. Computed tomography scan showed an osteolytic lesion, in the body of left zygomat...

The current-feedback (CMF) amplifier is a fundamentally different approach to high-frequency gain blocks. Not just an input stage, it is a full amplifier topology. It has outstanding characteristics in several areas: very high slewrates, -3dB bandwidth which is almost constant with increasing circuit gain, and low high-frequency distortion. Almost all commercial CMF products offer these benefit...

chondromyxoid fibroma (cmf) is a rare benign cartilaginous tumor with a predilection for the bones of lower extremities and about one fourth of the tumors involve the foot.radiologically, an eccentric lytic lesion with well defined margins is seen in the metaphysis of the bone. we hereby, report an 18 yr old young male who presented to orthopedic outpatient department, jn medical college, aliga...

For the value-added utilization of underutilized agricultural by-products, garlic skin obtained abundantly in the food processing industry has been tested as a new source of cellulosic materials. Cellulose microfibers (CMF) and cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) were isolated from garlic skin fibers by alkali treatment and acid hydrolysis. The crude fiber, CMF, and CNC of garlic skin were characteriz...
