Identification and characterization of a novel extracellular matrix protein nephronectin that is associated with integrin alpha8beta1 in the embryonic kidney. [PDF]
The epithelial-mesenchymal interactions required for kidney organogenesis are disrupted in mice lacking the integrin alpha8beta1. None of this integrin's known ligands, however, appears to account for this phenotype. To identify a more relevant ligand, a

Biological Principles in Self-Organization of Young Brain - Viewed from Kohonen Model [PDF]
Variants of the Kohonen model are proposed to study biological principles of self-organization in a model of young brain. We suggest a function to measure aquired knowledge and use it to auto-adapt the topology of neuronal connectivity, yielding ...

Background Borderline personality disorder (BPD) typically emerges during adolescence and early adulthood and has severe personal, social and economic consequences. Despite significant research efforts on early intervention over the past two decades, delays in diagnosis and treatment are still common, and exclusion of individuals with BPD from mental ...

Square bananas, blue horses: the relative weight of shape and color in concept recognition and representation [PDF]
The present study investigates the role that shape and color play in the representation of animate (i.e., animals) and inanimate manipulable entities (i.e., fruits), and how the importance of these features is modulated by different tasks.

ABSTRACT The family Rhinopomatidae comprises six species of mouse‐tailed bats within the genus Rhinopoma, inhabiting arid regions of the Old World from western Africa to Myanmar. While their phylogenetic relationships have been explored through morphology and molecular analyses, many populations still remain insufficiently studied using molecular ...

Impact of Simulated 1/f Noise for HI Intensity Mapping Experiments [PDF]
Cosmology has entered an era where the experimental limitations are not due to instrumental sensitivity but instead due to inherent systematic uncertainties in the instrumentation and data analysis methods. The field of HI intensity mapping (IM) is still

ABSTRACT Objectives In clinical settings, non‐carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) are often linked to abrasion, erosion, abfraction, or a combination of these factors. In archaeological and paleontological remains, the most common NCCL is the “toothpick groove,” yet little is known about the occurrence of these and other NCCLs in wild non‐human primates ...

The Excess Radio Background and Fast Radio Transients
In the last few years ARCADE 2, combined with older experiments, has detected an additional radio background, measured as a temperature and ranging in frequency from 22 MHz to 10 GHz, not accounted for by known radio sources and the cosmic microwave ...

Supramolecular polymer hydrogels induced by host-guest interactions with di-[cyclobis(paraquat-p-phenylene)] cross-linkers: from molecular complexation to viscoelastic properties [PDF]
Supramolecular polymer networks have been designed on the basis of a -electron donor/acceptor complex: naphthalene (N)/cyclobis(paraquat-p-phenylene) (CBPQT4+=B). For this purpose, a copolymer of N,N-dimethylacrylamide P(DMA-N1), lightly decorated with 1

Guidelines for Emergency Management of Traumatic Dental Injuries of the Chilean Ministry of Health
ABSTRACT Background Traumatic dental injuries (TDIs) are the fifth most prevalent condition worldwide. Proper diagnosis and emergency management are essential for ensuring a favourable outcome and prognosis. Although other international guidelines provide recommendations for the emergency management of TDI, specific clinical situations are not always ...
