the cellular automata method has been used to simulate the pattern formation of the schlögl model as a bistable reaction-diffusion system. both microscopic and macroscopic cellular automata approaches have been considered and two different methods for obtaining the probabilities in the microscopic approach have been mentioned. the results show the tendency of the system towards the more stable ...

Lectins are non-immunoglobulin proteins that bind diverse sugar structures with a high degree of selectivity. Lectins play crucial role in various biological processes such as cellular signaling, scavenging of glycoproteins from the circulatory system, cell-cell interactions in the immune system, differentiation and protein targeting to cellular compartments, as well as in host defence mechanis...

Innate immunity represents the first line of defence against pathogens and plays key roles in activation and orientation of the adaptive immune response. The innate immune system comprises both a cellular and a humoral arm. Components of the humoral arm include soluble pattern recognition molecules (PRMs) that recognise pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and initiate the immune resp...

in order to implement the cellular manufacturing system in practice, some essential factors should be taken into account. in this paper, a new mathematical model for cellular manufacturing system considering different production factors including alternative process routings and machine reliability with stochastic arrival and service times in a dynamic environment is proposed. also because of t...

production planning is performed through diverse methods according to the type of the system it is structured upon. one of the most important steps before production planning is to determine which system best fits the firm, and how the facilities should be designed. both job-shop and group-technology systems have their own pros and cons, each of which is suitable to a specific kind of factory. ...

The coordinating role of nuclear factor erythroid-2-related 2 (Nrf2) in cellular function is undeniable. Evidence indicates that this transcription exerts massive regulatory functions multiple signaling pathways concerning redox homeostasis and xenobiotics, macromolecules, iron metabolism. Being the master regulator antioxidant system, Nrf2 controls fate, influencing cell proliferation, differe...
