Mechanical homeostasis promotes proper aortic structure and function. Pathological conditions may arise, in part, from compromised or lost homeostasis. There is thus a need to quantify the homeostatic state and when it emerges. Here we quantify changes in mechanical loading, geometry, structure, and function of the murine aorta from the late prenat...

Methyl ethyl ketone is an organic solvent commonly used in adhesives and paints. Overexposure to methyl ethyl ketone can irritate the central nervous system, eyes, and respiratory system. When in direct contact with skin, methyl ethyl ketone can lead to dryness and cracking of the skin. Forty years ago, methyl ethyl ketone was used in the Navy to d...

AbstractUsing a titania–silica precursor with the composition SiO2 ∙ TiO2 ∙ хH2O, isolated via hydrochloric acid treatment of a process waste from the dressing of apatite–nepheline ore, we have prepared a hybrid composite containing silica as a matrix for an α-Ti(HPO4)2 ∙ H2O functional filler (STP). The key step of the synthesis process is a solut...

Huntington's disease (HD) is an inherited neurodegenerative disorder that usually starts during midlife with progressive alterations of motor and cognitive functions. The disease is caused by a CAG repeat expansion within the huntingtin gene leading to severe striatal neurodegeneration. Recent studies conducted on pre-HD children highlight early st...

The continuous demands for stringent environmental regulation and increased interests in the preservation of natural resources have motivated industries and research institutions to examine and consider alternative approaches on the use of renewable resources and waste by-products. This study was conducted using one of the most available natural fi...

AbstractIn this paper, we obtain samples of composite materials with a layered niobium-based matrix unidirectionally reinforced with single-crystal sapphire fibers using the solid-phase method of diffusion welding. Sapphire fibers are obtained by the Stepanov method (EFG). As a result of tests, the dependences of the strength of such fibers on the ...

As much as 90% of cancer associated mortality follows metastasis of a primary tumor. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and CTC clusters are important for metastasis. Compared to CTCs, CTC clusters formed by collective invasion exhibit a 23-50 fold increase in metastatic potential, but the factors that influence collective invasion are largely unknown....

Milk and dairy foods are naturally rich sources of a wide range of nutrients, and when consumed according to recommended intakes, contribute essential nutrients across all stages of the life cycle. Seminal studies recommendations with respect to intake of saturated fat have been consistent and clear: limit total fat intake to 30% or less of total d...
