The net of it, he said, was that the expenditure of more American lives, and more American money, as well as further strains on America's already depleted fighting capability, could end with the country back where it was at the outset, dependent on recalcitrant Iraqi politicians (not the word he used) for the exit from Iraq that Americans so clearly wanted.
The new leaders soon recognised that the battles of Verdun and the Somme had depleted the offensive capabilities of the German army.
In AAV-GCLc-shRNA#2 transduced striatal neurons we found an almost tenfold reduction of fluorescence of the EGFP reporter compared to controls, which might be explained by the strong quenching of the EGFP fluorophore by reactive oxygen species like singlet oxygen derived from lipid peroxidation [ 11] under conditions of depleted anti-oxidant defence capabilities.
In normal conditions, satellite cells – a muscle-specific stem cell population – proliferate in response to damage and drive muscle regeneration; however, these cells are progressively depleted in DMD, hampering muscle repair capability.
"The infrastructure is so depleted that it's not that they lack forensic capability," one investigator said.
Similarly, adult stem cells dividing asymmetrically under steady-state conditions retain the capability to divide symmetrically to restore stem cell pools depleted by injury or disease [19].
Astronomers continued to use all of Spitzer's capabilities until May 15 , 2009 when the liquid helium cryogen was depleted.
DoS attacks aim to deplete resources, including computation capability, bandwidth, memory, energy, etc. DoS attacks can be initiated from outside attackers as eavesdroppers or inside attackers.
They attacked V1 and V2 production sites on the island of Peenemünde in the North Sea with the objective of depleting the Germans' offensive capability.
In 1974, scientists discovered that CFCs have the capability of depleting the stratospheric ozone layer.
Taken together with our experiments, a bisdioxopiperazine's cardioprotective effect seems therefore to be determined by its capability to deplete TOP2B rather than to chelate iron.
