Abstract Background bFGF is an important growth factor for glioma cell proliferation and invasion, while connexin 43 is implicated in the suppression of glioma growth.Correspondingly, gliomas have been shown to have reduced, or compromised, connexin 43 expression.Methods In this study, a bFGF-targeted siRNA was delivered to the glioma cell line, U2
Visual simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) provides mapping and self-localization results for a robot in an unknown environment based on visual sensors, that have the advantages of small volume, low power consumption, and richness of Track Jacket information acquisition.Visual SLAM is essential and plays a significant role in supporting au
During the Deepwater Horizon (DWH) oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico a deep-sea hydrocarbon plume developed resulting in a rapid succession of bacteria.Colwellia eventually supplanted Oceanospirillales, which dominated the plume early in the spill.These successional changes may have resulted, in part, from the changing composition and abundance of hy
The aim of this study is to follow the gp production in IBDV-vaccinated and challenged birds.The progress of IBDV infection was monitored using anti-VP2 immunocytochemistry, light and transmission electron microscopy.In the medulla of the bursal follicle, the Movat pentachrome staining discovered an extracellular glycoprotein (gp) produced by bursa
