The change of membrane fluidity may affect membrane-associated functions, such as transportation of nutrients.
The clear changes of membrane fluidity in SMPDL3B knockdown or knockout cells strongly suggested that the TLR-modulating activity of SMPDL3B is associated with a change in macrophage lipid composition.
Test results indicate that the coupled effect of changes in level of fluidity and drag force resulting from the use of different SCMs types and replacement rates affect the time-dependent stability characteristics.
His footwork, quickness, change-of-direction and overall fluidity are exceptional.
While these difficulties are generally recognized, some authors suggest that there is a 'window of opportunity' for reform in the immediate post-conflict period due to the political energy released by the change of regime, the fluidity of the situation with new players and ideas entering the political arena, and increased funding available [ 5, 7, 10, 40].
Different types of fatty acids may change the fluidity of the T cell membrane by inhibiting enzymes bound to it or inhibiting cell viability and DNA synthesis [ 52, 84– 84].
Essential oils change the fluidity of membranes, which become abnormally permeable, resulting in the leakage of radicals, cytochrome c, calcium ions, and proteins, as in the case of oxidative stress and bioenergetic failure.
The idea that changes in the degree of fluidity of cyanobacterial thylakoid membranes might be a means of sensing thermal stress is supported by the finding that heat shock proteins were induced when the membrane fluidity was chemically altered [ 20].
Beuys hoped his lumps of fat spoke of fluidity and progressive change.
The most extreme levels of change in genomic fluidity per AAI unit are observed in the two clonal species with the lowest levels of sequence divergence: Y. pestis and the MTBC.
