In light of the nonequilibrium thermodynamics by I. Prigogine, the autonomic nervous system as a whole may be viewed as a dissipative structure progressively assembled in the course of evolution, plastically and rhythmically interfaced between forebrain, internal and external environments, to regulate energy, matter and information exchanges.
A similar effect is seen in cultured cells where an already assembled matrix is progressively lost if FN molecules are not continuously added to it [56].
Our analysis does not allow inferring how the pathway was progressively assembled in the lineage leading to LECA.
As can be seen in Figure 4 figure supplement 1, Gln1 progressively assembled into higher order structures, whereas a mutant version of Gln1 (E186K) did not.
This hypothesised break-up of the ParaHox cluster by the 'escape' of Cdx in these lophotrochozoans contrasts with alternative possible scenarios in which the ParaHox genes are progressively assembled into a cluster during evolution, and the three-gene cluster of Gsx, Xlox and Cdx was a chordate innovation.
However, as the outer casing of Userkaf's pyramid fell victim to stone robbers throughout the millennia, the loosely assembled core material was progressively exposed and fared much worse over time than that of the older pyramids.
We thus confirm that CNCs in solution progressively assemble into helical layer stacks that compress as water is extracted, assembling into ordered chiral films on top of the substrate.
An experimental investigation is presented on the mechanical response of progressively damaged Laminated Glass (LG) beams assembled with modified polyvinyl butyral (PVB -based interlayers (DG41).
To estimate how thoroughly our sequencing efforts sampled the O. fasciatus transcriptome, eight progressively larger subsets of the reads were independently assembled.
In particular, after reaching a given concentration threshold, diffuse cytoplasmic mutant FUS progressively aggregated, forming so-called FUS granules (FGs) that subsequently assembled into FUS aggregates (FAs) (Shelkovnikova et al., 2014).
