They are either differentiating homing mesenchymal stem cells [ 31], fibrocytes from the blood circulation [ 32] or are derived from epithelia via epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) [ 33].
In the crystal structure of the I-TevI DNA-binding domain bound to DNA representing either its homing target site or its target operator site, only one of the carboxy-terminal residues (Tyr242) makes a hydrogen bond to the phosphate backbone of the DNA substrate, clearly not providing any specificity to the interaction of I-TevI with its DNA substrate [ 47].
She's gone ("home") but she's here too, "homing" in those she loves.
The researchers saddled a group of homing pigeons with GPS tracking devices, placed a rubber plug in either their right or left nostrils, and released them 25 miles outside of their home in Pisa, Italy.
Nevertheless, a combination of the high specificity of BLI joined with the high optical resolution of confocal endomicroscopy, overcomes several constraints of either technique alone and enables to study the biology of BMSC survival and homing with more precision and accuracy.
Other equipment include spider-tracers (spider-shaped adhesive homing beacons keyed to his own spider-sense), a light beacon which can either be used as a flashlight or project a "Spider-Signal" design, and a specially modified camera that can take pictures automatically.
To enhance antigen uptake to DCs, vaccine delivery systems need to maximize either the amount of antigen reaching the APCs or the number of antigen-loaded APCs homing to local lymph nodes.
With either single dose or fractionated doses, lung shielding showed no beneficial effect for donor hematopoietic cells homing to recipient BM.
The Red Hook-based Duke Riley raised homing pigeons in Key West (the ramshackle coop is here, with live birds in it), took them to Cuba, and fitted them with either contraband cigars or tiny video cameras.
They were homing in on the airplane.
He has tied bells to homing pigeons.
