Therefore, the importance of characterizing the monocyte/macrophage populations involved employing multiple methodologies and functional characteristics cannot be underestimated, particularly for the indentification of specific populations to be targeted to modulate the fibrotic process.
Our findings show that protein paralogs with multiple functional domains can maintain common characteristics for specific domains by gene conversion, while allowing other domains to evolve diversified functions.
Developing three-dimensional space and system arrangements is a challenging and time-consuming task because ship layouts include hundreds or thousands of elements with multiple interconnections and dependencies governed by functional characteristics.
These epigenomic CGI clusters are strikingly distinct at multiple biological features including genomic, evolutionary, and functional characteristics.
However, from this revision of the literature appears clear that MMPs have multifaceted functional characteristics, which modulate physiological processes in multiple ways and with multiple consequences.
There are 33 known Adhesion receptors in human and these have characteristic long N-termini containing multiple functional domains [ 13, 14], known to be present in other protein families.
A novel multiple functional bulge apparatus was designed to study the mechanical-electronic-magnetic characteristics of electromagnetic materials.
Saliva has been shown to have multi- functional characteristics as expressed by several families of salivary molecules, each comprising multiple members that are multifunctional and overlapping [ 1].
It should be noted that multiple injections of iron agglomerates were not accompanied by any significant changes in morphological and functional characteristics of the studied organs.
Small populations of cancer cells within multiple types of solid tumors have been identified based on cell surface marker expression and other phenotypic and functional characteristics.
