This important study examines the role of pericytes in patterning the zebrafish blood-brain barrier (BBB) and controlling its permeability. Using pdgfrb mutant zebrafish models lacking brain pericytes ...

The histology is characteristic; lobulated masses of acini or lobules are densely packed together with little intervening stroma. The basement membrane is intact. Despite abundant proliferative ...

These include some obvious mechanical activities such as endocytosis, cell motility and membrane resealing, but also others, such as replication and transcription. Taking the motor proteins as an ...

Membrane proteins are proteins found in cell membranes, either at the surface or on intracellular organelles. Integral membrane proteins such as receptors and ion channels span the membrane ...

The glomerular basement membrane (GBM) was revealed using an electronic microscope, and the thickness was determined using ImageJ, an image processing program (23). We extracted the total protein and ...

A woman said she found her brother in a basement bedroom unresponsive. Dispatch reports indicated that the victim was found tied up — his arms bound with duct tape, his legs with an extension cord.

First, we present an overview of the histology of the vascular wall and vascular senescence. Then, we explore the epigenetic alterations identified in the context of vascular senescence and elucidate ...

Autoimmune bullous diseases are often associated with significant morbidity and some can even cause mortality, if left untreated. Multiple therapies are now available to treat these blistering ...

She stated around 7:30 a.m., she and Koontz were sitting on a couch in the basement. She told police she was “down there to make sure he was okay because he was pretty drunk.” ...
