BackgroundAbnormalities of the mitral valve (MV) apparatus are typical features of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).These abnormalities include leaflet elongation, thick leaflets, displacement of papillary muscle, and systolic anterior motion (SAM) of the MV anterior leaflet.Mitral valve chordal rupture associated with HCM is a rare but serious is
Glutathione and Its Biosynthetic Intermediates Alleviate Cesium Stress in Arabidopsis
Phytoremediation is optimized when plants grow vigorously while accumulating the contaminant of interest.Here we show that sulphur supply alleviates aerial chlorosis and growth retardation caused by cesium stress without reducing cesium accumulation in Arabidopsis thaliana.This alleviation was not due to recovery of cesium-induced potassium decreas
A methodology for image-based measurement of plate movement in disengaged wet clutches
Abstract The drag loss behavior of a disengaged wet clutch is influenced, among other things, by the movement of the plates.Therefore, Triathlon - Femme - Wetsuits knowledge about the plate movement is essential for investigating and optimizing the drag loss behavior.This paper presents a methodology for image-based measurement of plate movement in
TRP and Rhodopsin Transport Depends on Dual XPORT ER Chaperones Encoded by an Operon
TRP channels and G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) play critical roles in sensory reception.However, the identities of the chaperones that assist GPCRs in translocating from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) are limited, and TRP Triathlon - Femme - Wetsuits ER chaperones are virtually unknown.The one exception for TRPs is Drosophila XPORT.Here, we s
