We use a self-consistent mean-field theory, designed to investigate membrane reshaping and lipid demixing upon interaction with proteins, to explore BAR domains interacting with large patches of lipid membranes of heterogeneous compositions.
An indication of the need to be aware of the heterogeneous composition of the migrant population within a country is that the socio-economic heterogeneity of immigrants in most OECD countries is significantly higher than that of the native population (see also Schnepf, 2008).
Because of the heterogeneous composition of the pituitary gland, which contains not less than five different endocrine cell types, the damped rhythms observed in the gland of mice subjected to DRF could result either from a composite response of cell oscillators that would be reset or not by meal time, or from an homogeneously weak entrainment of all pituitary clock cells by food.
On account of the heterogeneous composition of thyroid tumours, it is difficult to prepare pure tumour homogenates for enzyme measurements or western blot analysis.
Because of their heterogeneous composition, accurate phenotyping of these cells requires a multicolor approach, so that the expansion of all MDSC subsets can be appreciated.
We found that, in an in vitro isolated system, 5-HT binds to and stabilizes AS aggregates of a heterogeneous composition, which consequently accumulate instead of growing into mature fibrils.
In addition, the generated heterogeneity maps, considering the reactant and diluent heterogeneities concurrently, provide a better understanding of the heterogeneous composition effect on the propagation velocity and combustion synthesis during combustion synthesis.
The maps provide a better understanding of the heterogeneous composition and porosity effect on the average propagation velocity and oscillatory frequency during unstable micropyretic synthesis.
Considering that dentin is a challenging substrate for adhesion and that the universal SBU is comprised of a heterogeneous composition that mixes various different components into the same solution (e.g., acidic and non-acidic monomers, solvents, fillers, initiators, and silane – Table 1), the combination of these factors may have probably decreased the bonding ability of SBU to dentin.
