"I thought, 'What if my model is just a model, and I let all these people down?'" she says. . Stevens, along with her mentor at Stanford, Ben Barres, had proposed that brain cells called microglia prune neuronal connections during embryonic and later development in response to a signal from a branch of the immune system known as the classical complement pathway.
This function describes the voltage response at the location x on branch i in response to a delta-Dirac pulse applied to the location y on branch j at time t = 0 (branches i and j can belong either to the same cell or to the two different cells).
Topping the news this hour, Micron Technology shares are higher today, after South Korea offered to cut memory chip shipments to the U.S. South Korea waived the olive branch threat in response to a U.S. decision to put stiff duties on memory chip shipments from the country's Hynix Semiconductor.
Earlier this year, the state-owned Bank of China froze North Korean assets in its Macau branch in response to an American initiative to clamp down on North Korea's use of foreign bank accounts to launder illicit money.
Thus, normal morphogenetic movement within the epithelium is affected upon disruption of the PCP genes Celsr1 and Vangl2, rendering the epithelium almost incapable of branching in response to an FGF10 stimulus.
In response to the Upper Big Branch disaster, he drew the outrage of coal miners when he quipped that "accidents happen," regardless of safety regulation.
Caenorhabditis elegans halts postembryonic growth and development shortly after hatching in response to monomethyl branched-chain fatty acid (mmBCFA) deficiency.
To determine whether the coding region of Pparα is positively selected in bats in response to hibernation, we conducted a branch model test on Pparα from 9 hibernating and 3 non-hibernating species of bats by the maximum likelihood method using other mammalian species as an out-group (Fig 1 and Table 1).
These observations are contrary to the trend typically observed for Gram-positive bacteria in response to cold, where increased branching is typically employed in cold adaptation to effectively disorder the membrane, thereby increasing fluidity under cold temperatures (Denich et al., 2003).
As such a threshold is arbitrary and critical for the output metabolic models as in response to this threshold complete branches, alternative pathways, or subsystems might be included or excluded, thereby heavily changing the functionalities of the model.
