Effect of SDF-1α pretreatment on the homing rate of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells in streptozotocin-induced type 1 diabetic rats [PDF]
Background. Stem cell homing to damaged tissues is among the main barriers to stem cell therapy. The current study was conducted to investigate whether preconditioning umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UCMSCs) with stromal cells-derived factor 1α ...

A confinable home-and-rescue gene drive for population modification
Homing-based gene drives, engineered using CRISPR/Cas9, have been proposed to spread desirable genes throughout populations. However, invasion of such drives can be hindered by the accumulation of resistant alleles.

Impact of Controller Performance on the Process of Guiding an Armour-Piercing Missile onto a Ground-Based Target [PDF]
This work presents an analysis of guiding an anti-tank missile (ATGM) onto a ground-based target. The concept presented here is the feasibility of bypassing obstacles in the path of an ATGM when the obstacle coordinates are known prior to firing the ATGM
