Micro-CT evaluation of apical delta morphologies in human teeth [PDF]
AbstractThe apical delta is an intricate system within the root canal and incompletely debridement may affect the long-term prognosis of root canal therapy. The aim of the present study is to investigate the morphologic features of apical deltas in human teeth with micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) using a centreline-fitting algorithm.

Neuralized Promotes Basal to Apical Transcytosis of Delta in Epithelial Cells [PDF]
Notch receptors mediate short-range signaling controlling many developmental decisions in metazoans. Activation of Notch requires the ubiquitin-dependent endocytosis of its ligand Delta. How ligand endocytosis in signal-sending cells regulates receptor activation in juxtaposed signal-receiving cells remains largely unknown.

Electrode impedance dynamics in sequential cochlear implant users: insights into cochlear immunity [PDF]
IntroductionCochlear implant outcomes can be limited due to immunologically mediated intracochlear foreign body responses, resulting in new bone growth and fibrosis.

Delta-Notch Signaling: The Long and the Short of a Neuron’s Influence on Progenitor Fates
Maintenance of the neural progenitor pool during embryonic development is essential to promote growth of the central nervous system (CNS). The CNS is initially formed by tightly compacted proliferative neuroepithelial cells that later acquire radial ...

Objective: The apical delta is the branching of the main root canal dividing into three or more ramifications near the root apex, while the main canal itself becoming indistinguishable. Aim of this study was to analyze apical delta morphologies of mesial root canals of mandibular first molar teeth quantitatively using micro--computed tomography (micro--

The Arp2/3 complex and WASp are required for apical trafficking of Delta into microvilli during cell fate specification of sensory organ precursors [PDF]
Cell fate decisions mediated by the Notch signalling pathway require direct cell-cell contact between adjacent cells. In Drosophila melanogaster, an external sensory organ (ESO) develops from a single sensory organ precursor (SOP) and its fate specification is governed by differential Notch activation.

Abstract In structured RNAs, helical elements are often capped by apical loops that are integral structural elements, ranging from 3 to >20 nts of size on average, and display a highly heterogeneous energy landscape profile, rendering structural characterization particularly challenging.
