myeloid cell development in Xenopus. We show that cebpa is one of the first known hematopoietic genes expressed in the embryo. Lossand gain-of-function studies show that it is both necessary and sufficient for the development of functional myeloid cells. In addition, we show that cebpa misexpression leads to the precocious induction of myeloid cell markers in pluripotent prospective ectodermal ...

tunnelling through cities underlain by soft soil, commonly associated with soil movement around the tunnels and subsequent surface settlement. the predication of ground movement during the tunnelling and optimum support pressure could be based on analytical, empirical or the numerical methods. the commonly used earth pressure balance (epb) tunneling machines, uses the excavated soil in a pressu...

Rarity of soft tissue preservation, including articular cartilage, in the fossil record hinders creation biologically-realistic mechanical models. Previous studies cartilage extant taxa have documented important aspects shapes and thicknesses, but these insights remain generalized yet to see systematic implementation biomechanical modeling. Herein, we present a new method for modeling joints th...

In this paper, multi-source perturbations during the evolution of an equatorial plasma bubble (EPB) event at low latitudes in China are studied by means multi-ground-based instruments, including all-sky airglow imager, a very high frequency (VHF) radar and eight digisondes. We found that EPB initially evolved from bottom (∼600 km scale) seeded atmospheric gravity waves form large-scale wave-lik...

El estudio analizó, en dos años, los efectos de raza [Brahman (BHM; n= 65); Suizo Europeo (SE; 56)], suplementación con Zilpaterol® (ZIL; tratadas o testigo), estación nacimiento (primavera u otoño) y sus interacciones, sobre superficie corporal (SC), edad (EPB), peso (PPB), condición (CC), profundidad del músculo largo dorsal (MD), grosor grasa (GD) concentración sérica leptina (LEP) a la pube...
