IDENTIFICATION OF GENES DIFFERENTIALLY EXPRESSED BETWEEN A SOMATOTROPE AND A LACTOTROPE PITUITARY CELL LINES BY REPRESENTATIONAL DIFFERENCE ANALYSIS

Identification of genes differentially expressed between a somatotrope and a lactotrope pituitary cell lines by representational difference analysis

The molecular and cellular processes leading to the development and differentiation of the anterior pituitary gland is well characterized both in rodents and in human and rely on the highly regulated expression of transcription and growth factors.Yet regulatory mechanisms and signature molecules implicated in postnatal pituitary homeostasis, cell a

Genome sequences of human cytomegalovirus strain TB40/E variants propagated in fibroblasts and epithelial cells

Abstract The advent of whole genome sequencing has revealed that common laboratory strains of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) have major genetic deficiencies resulting from serial passage in fibroblasts.In particular, tropism for epithelial and endothelial cells is lost due to mutations disrupting genes UL128, UL130, or UL131A, which encode subunits o

A methodology for physically based rockfall hazard assessment

Rockfall hazard assessment is not simple to achieve in practice and sound, physically based assessment methodologies are still Girls Celebration Accessories missing.The mobility of rockfalls implies a more difficult hazard definition with respect to other slope instabilities with minimal runout.Rockfall hazard assessment involves complex definition

Impact of vaccination on epidemiology of diphtheria and pertussis

Whooping cough and diphtheria are vaccine preventable diseases.Diphtheria, due to Corynebacterium diphtheriae or Utensil Holder Corynebactium ulcerans, two Gram positive bacteria, is a serious upper respiratory tract disease with high morbidity and mortality rates.Vaccination, via an acellular vaccine composed only of purified, detoxified diphtheri
