characterizing intracranial mass lesions by providing information on vascularity. Tumefactive …

Alzheimer’s disease is characterized by amyloid plaques, neurofibrillary tangles, glial
activation, and neurodegeneration. In mouse models, inflammatory activation of microglia …

Vertebrate retinas are generally composed of rod (dim-light) and cone (bright-light) photoreceptors

To investigate the stability of FRTL-5 cells we cloned stock cells by limiting dilution in a 6-hormone
medium with bovine TSH (bTSH) (10 mU/ml) (6H medium). One third of the wells with …

Clinical studies in burn patients demonstrate a close association between leaky guts and
increased incidence or severity of sepsis and other complications. Severe thermal injury …
