Planarian regeneration depends on the presence of pluripotent stem cells in the adult.We developed an in vivo COUNTRY CHEDDAR W PASTA BROCCOLI stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture (SILAC) protocol in planarians to identify proteins that are enriched in planarian stem cells.Through a comparison of SILAC proteomes of normal and stem

Skeletal dysplasias are challenging for diagnostics and treatment.We present a series of fifteen patients with different forms of skeletal dysplasias with age ranged from 6 to 17 years with variable clinical presentations managed as a part of the project of scientific cooperation between Turner Paediatric Orthopaedic Institute and Orthopaedic Hospi

An aerosol shock tube has been developed for measuring the ignition delay times (tig) of aerosol mixtures of low-vapor-pressure fuels and for visualization of the auto-ignition flow-field.The aerosol mixture was formed in a premixing tank through an atomizing nozzle.Condensation and adsorption of suspended droplets were not observed significantly i

Anorectal malformations (ARMs) are one of the more common congenital anomalies encountered in pediatric surgery where the majority are diagnosed in the early neonatal period.The etiology of ARM remains uncertain and is likely to be multifactorial.A majority of ARMs result from abnormal development of the urorectal septum in early fetal life.There c

Introduction: Anterior approach provides excellent visualization and access to the anterior thoracic spine.It may be used alone, in combination with a posterior midline approach or in a staged or sequential Protein fashion.Aims: To analyse our institutional experience in transthoracic approaches and to determine the safety and benefit of this appro
