However, the traditional cylindrical buildings constructed with thick scoria walls were found to be particularly resistant to lava flows because of their very strong resistance to lateral pressures, and potentially their ability to divert lava around their walls, with those that could still be seen partially buried but not destroyed by the flow.
The maggots of E. tenax have been recognized to be particularly resistant to microbial stress, because they are able to survive in aquatic habitats that are usually not colonized by other dipteran larvae or animals [ 3].
Tumour stem cells (TSC) are often associated with a poor prognosis, because they seem to be particularly resistant to chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and adept at stimulating angiogenesis.
Playwrights can be particularly resistant to their methods.
Glioblastomas are known to be particularly resistant to therapy.
Maliki supporters are particularly resistant to that idea, because the government they lead would most likely be a target of any increase in violent insurgent activity.
The CSC population is particularly resistant to conventional therapies because of its altered expression of ATP-dependent drug efflux pumps [ 33], overexpression of the detoxification enzyme ALDH1 [ 34, 35], activation of DNA damage checkpoint responses [ 36], activation of Akt/protein kinase B survival pathways [ 37], and decreased production of reactive oxygen species [ 36, 38, 39].
Unlike formal research, which looks for seed varieties that can work across different climates and soil types, farmers are constantly selecting for diversity, conserving a range of varieties and choosing them not just for their yields but also for their taste or because they are particularly resistant to disease or drought.
It is because glioma cells are particularly resistant to therapy and coupled with the problem of the blood brain barrier, and the susceptibility of healthy brain tissue to damage during treatment, new adjuvant therapies are clearly needed to tackle this treatment-resistant tumour (Gerstner and Fine, 2007).
Assembly Democrats are particularly resistant to education cuts.
