Regular dense fibrous tissue is the term used to describe tendons, ligaments, and aponeuroses (fibrous sheets that form attachments for muscles), where the collagen fibres are precisely oriented in parallel bundles.
We propose a new "direct-write" process for fabricating scaffolds composed of suspended polymer microfibers that are precisely oriented in 3D, providing directional architecture for selectively guiding cell growth along a desired pathway.
Wild type cone cell clusters are precisely oriented within the equatorial-polar plane of the eye epithelium, reflecting proper planar cell polarity.
Moreover, this result argues that the cap needs to be precisely oriented to establish the fully functional protease.
We use a simplified "dendritic actin network" illustration to symbolize actin filaments, but we do not want to imply that the branches are static or that they are precisely oriented.
The mounds were so precisely oriented that snow melted in their lees in patterns anticipated by the designer.
Reorganization is precisely the point.
Our purpose is precisely to present new goal oriented mesh adaptation strategies in the framework of finite-volume schemes and a discrete adjoint method.
We suggest that the lack of clear normal faults in the reflection image is precisely because our seismic profile is oriented almost orthogonal to the arc strike (i.e., extensional direction) and is thus sub-parallel to the strike of normal faults.
We hypothesize that β is precisely anchored at the AID to orient other parts of β towards regions of α1 that control channel opening (thereby modulating Po and the activation curve) and channel inactivation.
