During mouse embryonic development, neural progenitors lengthen the G1 phase of the
cell cycle and this has been suggested to be a cause, rather than a consequence, of …

Entecavir is a potent nucleoside inhibitor of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) polymerase with a
high antiviral efficacy and a high genetic barrier to viral resistance. After approval in 2006, …

Background: The cytochrome bc 1 complex is part of the energy conversion machinery of
the respiratory and photosynthetic electron transfer chains. This integral membrane protein …

Biochemical data have shown that specific, tightly bound phospholipids are essential for
activity of the cytochrome bc 1 complex (QCR), an integral membrane protein of the respiratory …

Small diffusible redox proteins facilitate electron transfer in respiration and photosynthesis
by alternately binding to integral membrane proteins. Specific and transient complexes need …

Background— Peripheral percutaneous transluminal angioplasty is fraught with a substantial
risk of restenosis and reintervention. A drug-eluting balloon (DEB) based on a novel …

We have previously described a small interfering RNA (siRNA) delivery system (AtuPLEX)
for RNA interference (RNAi) in the vasculature of mice. Here we report preclinical data for …

A general regularized contact model, including normal compliance, energydissipation, and
tangential friction, is described in this paper. Thenormal damping coefficient is formulated as …

The development of an effective AIDS vaccine has been challenging because of viral
genetic diversity and the difficulty of generating broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs). We …

Brain function critically relies on blood vessels to supply oxygen and nutrients, to establish a
barrier for neurotoxic substances, and to clear waste products. The archetypal vascular …
