Female cardiovascular biology and resilience in the setting of physiological and pathological stress
For years, females were thought of as smaller men with complex hormonal cycles; as a result, females have been largely excluded from preclinical and clinical research.However, in the eye pencil last ten years, with the increased focus on sex as a biological variable, it has become clear that this is not the case, and in fact, male and female cardio
Parameterization of Mangrove Root Structure of Rhizophora stylosa in Coastal Hydrodynamic Model
Mangroves are able to attenuate tsunamis, storm surges, and waves.Their protective function against wave disasters is gaining increasing attention as a typical example of the green infrastructure/Eco-DRR (Ecosystem-based Disaster Risk Reduction) in coastal regions.Hydrodynamic models commonly employed additional friction or a drag forcing term to r
Sensing microbial RNA in the cytosol
The innate immune system faces the difficult task of keeping a fine balance between sensitive detection of microbial presence and avoidance of autoimmunity.To this aim, key mechanisms of innate responses rely on isolation eye pencil of pathogens in specialized subcellular compartments, or sensing of specific microbial patterns absent from the host.
