Little by little it vanished from Iran, except for a few surviving adherents who remain to the present day in Yazd and a few other places.

CM CD4+ T cells were depleted following SIV infection among all SIV-infected animals (Figure 4B), and the co-infected animals failed to generate a CM CD4+ T cell response to parasitemias as observed among the malaria-only animals except for the longest surviving co-infected animal (DK36; Figure S2A).
By scoring the female progenies (n>100) from these different genetic crosses, we found that, except for a few surviving homozygous BG01648 (15.6% of total females scored; n = 128) and trans-heterozygous BG01648/PL6 females (5%, n = 101; from the cross using BG01648/FM7 females), all other combinations resulted in lethality.
Lying at the heart of contemporary Datong, the old city was almost unrecognisable until a few years ago, except for a handful of surviving monuments buried within shabby multi-storey buildings.
Everyone that is, except for Nick Folk, who survived a worthy challenge from Brown to capture the Jets' kicking job for a third consecutive season.
