Ancestry dependent balancing selection of placental dysferlin at high-altitude
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023 Introduction: The placenta mediates fetal growth by regulating gas and nutrient exchange between the mother and the fetus. The cell type in the placenta where this nutrient exchange occurs is called the syncytiotrophoblast, which is the barrier between ...

FEBS Letters, 2007 Cell–cell fusion is a highly regulated and dramatic cellular event that is required for development and homeostasis. Fusion may also play a role in the development of cancer and in tissue repair by stem cells. While virus–cell fusion and the fusion of intracellular membranes have been the subject of intense investigation during the past decade, cell ...

Constructive role of dissipation for driven coupled bosonic modes [PDF]
, 2008 We describe four cases of childhood B-cell progenitor acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (BCP-ALL) and one of T-cell (T-ALL) with unexpected numbers of interphase signals for ETV6 with an ETV6-RUNX1 fusion probe.
