Regarding connectivity, a recent study exploited the technique of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), which uses MRI to estimate, in intact brains, axonal connectivity between brain regions.
Surprisingly, recent studies exploiting a regulatable tethering system that allows the controlled initiation of broad domains of H3K9me at an ectopic site away from centromeres revealed that, following removal of the initiator, there was a rapid and active removal of H3K9me [ 160, 161].
Recent studies exploiting fish's spontaneous tendency to join the larger group showed that their ability in numerical discrimination closely resembles that of primates but little is known as to whether these capacities are innate or acquired.
At the same time, some recent studies exploiting complete genome sequences or genomic libraries include 100s - 1000s of loci [ 5- 11].
These examples of recent studies exploit the fluorescence lifetime to confirm if and when FRET occurs.
A recent study that exploited the C. elegans germline to investigate the activation and recruitment of PIKKs after different types of DNA damage revealed an unexpected role for the RecQ helicase WRN-1 in the recruitment of ATM-1 to IR-induced damage (Lee et al. 2010).
The interplay between the virulence of Mtb strain, control of infection and organization of the granulomas as reported in the present work is in agreement with a recent study, which describes how pathogenic mycobacteria exploit the granuloma as a mechanism for expansion and systemic dissemination [29].
Moreover, a recent study [20] introduced another HAC that exploits the SOM properties by introducing a similarity measure (CONN) based on detailed local density distribution to achieve an accuracy higher than the accuracy obtained by distance-based approaches.
JNKs activation is reportedly able to induce autophagy when cells are starved, and a recent study demonstrated the capability of cancer cells to exploit autophagy as an energy source to support rapid cell proliferation.
26 Alitretinoin's effects on cell proliferation have been exploited for beneficial effects as well; a recent study demonstrated its ability to induce apoptosis in breast cancer cells.
