Our data demonstrate that a specific size scale of topographic cue promotes osteogenic differentiation with or without osteogenic agents.
The objectives of the present study are the soil elemental characterization and soil differentiation in topographic sequence and depth, using Energy Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence (EDXRF) as well as gamma-ray spectrometry data combined with Principal Component Analysis (PCA).
The non-cancer group showed no differential topographic distribution.
Field observation and SRTM (Shuttle Radar Topographic Mission) data allowed the differentiation of two lateritic land surfaces separated by a minimum altitude difference of about 60 m.
We present the every-direction variogram analysis (EVA) method for quantifying orientation and scale dependence of topographic anisotropy to aid in differentiation of the fluvial and tectonic contributions to surface evolution.
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the role of topographic surface features in osteogenic differentiation of rat bone marrow stromal cells (BMCs) and in the maturation of rat calvarial osteoblasts and to assess whether the effects of specific surface treatments, either alone or in combination, are sex-dependent.
This study elucidates the effects of both surface biochemical and topographic cues on the proliferation and differentiation of C2C12 myoblasts on biodegradable polymer films.
There was no evidence available that supported topographic barriers as determinants of genetic differentiation in this species.
Together, these results indicate that the aligned collagen NP composite fiber induced the tenogenic differentiation of ADSCs through both a topographic cue (aligned collagen fibril) and a chemical cue (PDGF released from NPs).
Volcanic activity during late Pliocene and Quaternary and topographic conditions in western Mexico probably promoted this early differentiation.
