ABSTRACT Microtubules are noncovalent polymers assembled from α/β tubulin dimers. Their structure, dynamics and interaction with effectors are regulated through the expression of diverse tubulin isotypes and chemically diverse posttranslational modifications, also known as the “tubulin code.” Understanding the biophysical correlates between tubulin ...

Silicone Breast Implants [PDF]
AbstractMagnetic resonance imaging is a powerful noninvasive means by which to study the integrity of silicone breast implants. Silicone has a unique MR frequency and long T1 and T2 relaxation times that allow for several MR sequences to provide excellent diagnostic images. This unit presents a basic protocol for imaging of silicon breast implants.

Breast implant illness in silicone breast implant patients [PDF]
This dissertation studied health complaints in Silicone Breast Implant (SBI) patients, known under the term Breast Implant Illness (BII). This is a symptom complex of non-specific health complaints such as muscle pain, joint pain, extreme fatigue, sleep disturbances, pyrexia, dry eyes/dry mouth (sicca) and cognitive disturbances.

Ultrasound versus MRI for evaluation of silicone leakage from silicone breast implants
Background: Implant ruptures and gel bleed are not uncommon among women with silicone breast implants. While magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is traditionally considered the gold standard diagnostic modality, recent studies suggest ultrasound might be an
