We have previously demonstrated that recombinant human apo-SAA is sufficient to cause BMDC to upregulate inflammatory genes, induce cytokine secretion, and augment the surface expression of MHC II and the co-stimulatory molecules CD80 and CD86.
The incorporation of a 50% molar ratio of DPPG into the lipid layer effectively augmented the negative surface charge of the lipid coat from -5.0 [12] to -19.1 mV.
It is conceivable that the modified avidin coating protocol using citrate buffer altered the charge distribution at the steric layer, thus augmenting the negative surface charge of avidin-coated SPIONs.
Since microvilli serve to augment the absorptive surface of the intestine, their reduction in Eps8KO mice is compatible with the absorption defect and with the calorie restriction phenotype that we observed in these animals.
Moreover, the maximum value of turbulence intensity is augmented with increasing the surface roughness.
If the depths of our mind contain within it strange forces capable of augmenting those on the surface, or of waging a victorious battle against them, there is every reason to seize them... .. -Andre Breton, The Surrealist Manifesto, 1924.
When aerodynamic surfaces encounter faults, they may not be able to provide sufficient torque as commanded, and RCS jets are activated to augment the aerodynamic surfaces to compensate for insufficient torque.
Moreover, since they are attached to the mesh face surface, they can be augmented with the normal to the surface at each point.
In these systems, thermal fluctuations "roughen" the surface topography which augments double layer interactions through direct geometric effects and subtle entropy driven renormalization.
To augment the cooling effect by increasing the surface area, the housing may be provided with thin metal fins.
