The stromal vascular fraction (SVF), in particular, is an eclectic composite of cells with progenitor activity that includes preadipocytes, mesenchymal stem cells, pericytes, endothelial cells, and macrophages.
Ultimately, every forebrain region including the hypothalamus is a composite of cells from different origins (Marin & Rubenstein, 2003).
It was shown that in the solid form of Krebs-2 tumor, the cells with tumorigenic potential are found in groups that are randomly scattered throughout the tumor, which appears as a composite of cell masses, trabecules, and cavities.
Two rADSCs-Endo/nHA-PA 66 scaffold composites were removed respectively at 3 and 7d during co-culturing, and after conventional treatment, SEM was use to evaluate the composite structure of cells and scaffolds.
Composites of closed metal cells, in which the cells have uniform wall thickness and which confine a fluid in their interior, are modeled using cylindrical cells with square, hexagonal and circular cross sections.
The process of malignant transformation of an individual cell is followed and the tissue (or tumor) is described as a composite of individual cells in order to quantitatively account for intra-tumor heterogeneity.
The architectural features as well as the composite character of cell wall ultrastructure are discussed in a framework to understand the complex interrelationship between microstructure and macroscopic behavior in this extremely lightweight cellular biocomposite.
In birds, methionine supplementation causes elevated in vivo response to subcutaneously injected phytohaemagglutinin (PHA) [e.g. 6], [7], [16], a composite measures of cell-mediated immunocompetence [17].
Because of the heterogeneous composition of the pituitary gland, which contains not less than five different endocrine cell types, the damped rhythms observed in the gland of mice subjected to DRF could result either from a composite response of cell oscillators that would be reset or not by meal time, or from an homogeneously weak entrainment of all pituitary clock cells by food.
The high-temperature strength is analysed by considering the material as a composite of hard cell walls and dispersion-strengthened near-cell regions, together with soft cell interiors.
