As a result, there is a reduction in the amount of recoverable DNA, and aDNA that is retrieved is characterized by predictable forms of damage, including extreme fragmentation, depurination, and high-levels of terminal cytosine deamination19,20,21.
With respect to potential side-effects, some of which include memory loss and cognitive impairment, it is common to find that they are characterized as predictable and reasonable outcomes that one would expect with direct brain intervention.
Despite these results, it is highly desirable to obtain immortalized neural stem cell lines, in which the immortalizing agent is better characterized and predictable in its effects, so that the immortalized lines will mimic the behavior of normal hNSCs as closely as possible also, tentatively, to be used in a cell therapy context.
DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.07277.006 Acoustic duets are characterized by predictable response latencies between male and female calls (Bailey, 2003).
In this contribution, we ask whether distantly related groups of fishes showing morphological convergence in body shape are characterized by predictable changes in vertebral counts in the abdominal and caudal modules.
Although bone marrow suppression is characterized by predictable macrocytosis, raised mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration, thrombocytopenia, and sometimes pancytopenia, leucopenia is the most common and most important haematological complication in case of bone marrow toxicity; thus regular monitoring of the full blood count is recommended during treatment.
By progressively restricting the analyses to narrower categories of sites, we further seek to characterize sites with predictable mutational effects, that is, unconditionally deleterious, neutral or beneficial.
Deterministic processes are characterized by being predictable, so identifying and determining patterns may be, at times, easier to accomplish.
Since the baby boomers discovered yoga, the arousal, sweating, heavy breathing and states of undress that characterize yoga classes have led to predictable results.
What has followed represents the now predictable process and ensuing conflict of interests that characterize most such discoveries.
