The roles of transforming growth factor-β, Wnt, Notch and hypoxia on liver progenitor cells in primary liver tumours [PDF]
Primary liver tumours have a high incidence and mortality. The most important forms are hepatocellular carcinoma and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, both can occur together in the mixed phenotype hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma. Liver progenitor cells

Determination of fracture mechanics parameters on a base of local displacement measurements [PDF]
New experimental technique for a determination of the stress intensity factor (SIF) and T-stressvalues is developed and verified. The approach assumes combining the crack compliance method and opticalinterferometric measurements of local deformation ...

Local lung hypoxia determines epithelial fate decisions during alveolar regeneration. [PDF]
After influenza infection, lineage-negative epithelial progenitors (LNEPs) exhibit a binary response to reconstitute epithelial barriers: activating a Notch-dependent ΔNp63/cytokeratin 5 (Krt5) remodelling program or differentiating into alveolar type II

Morphological Variations of Distal End of Femur: A Cross-sectional Study
Introduction: Apart from intercondylar notch and trochlear groove, the intercondylar line also contributes to knee joint instability. Knowledge of morphological variations of these anatomical landmarks can help in diagnosis as well as planning the ...

An Elliptical-Shaped Dual-Band UWB Notch Antenna for Wireless Applications
This paper discusses an elliptical ultrawideband (UWB) antenna and a dual-band UWB notch antenna. To achieve a UWB bandwidth, two corner cuts are etched into the rectangular slot on the partial ground plane.
