A charge controller or battery regulator limits the rate at which the electric current is added to or drawn from electric batteries, prevents overcharging and may protect against overvoltage, which can reduce battery performance or lifespan and may pose a safety risk.
Here we show that Nkd1, a Wnt-inducible negative-feedback regulator limits Wnt signaling by preventing nuclear accumulation of β-catenin.
Taken together, these data would suggest that the ability of endocannabinoids to act as a local regulator limiting the spread of cancer cells would be replaced by a pro-survival effect of these local mediators at high rates of receptor expression.
Expression of Twist1 in TH1 cells acts as an endogenous regulator limiting the proinflammatory potential of TH1 cells in the continuous presence of antigen with repeated activation of NFAT and NF-κB.
Now, as Congress debates how to rein in credit and debit card companies in the United States, Australia's experience is being pointed to as an example of just how tricky that can be: for one thing, if regulators limit one fee or rate, banks are likely to find another way to keep revenue flowing.
As with many other technologies, if regulators limit their use in a country, innovators are likely to take their manufacturing facilities elsewhere.
If California regulators limit on-road testing and deployment, companies stretching the boundaries of driverless technology will inevitably shift their investments to more innovation-friendly states (or countries).
Just don't expect the flight to be totally carbon-neutral--regulators limit the use of biofuels to a 50-50 blend with conventional jet fuel.
The banks -- including Citigroup, Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, Wells Fargo and JPMorgan -- have seen regulators limit their ability to pay dividends, in the wake of the historic $700 billion taxpayer bailout.
Why should the quadratic scaling of regulators limit prokaryotes but not eukaryotes?
