Abstract:
Since instrumentation of the apical foramen has been suggested for cleaning and disinfection of the cemental canal, selection of the file size and position of the apical foramen have challenging steps. This study analyzed the influence of apical foramen lateral opening and file size can exert on cemental canal instrumentation. Thirty-four human maxillary central incisors were divided in two groups: Group 1 (n=17), without flaring, and Group 2 (n=17), with flaring with LA Axxess burs. K-files of increasing diameters were progressively inserted into the canal until binding at the apical foramen

During yeast cell polarization localization of the small GTPase, cell division control protein 42 homologue (Cdc42) is clustered to ensure the formation of a single bud. Here we show that the disease-associated flippase ATPase class I type 8b member 1 (ATP8B1) enables Cdc42 clustering during enterocyte polarization. Loss of this regulation results in increased apical membrane size with scattered apical recycling endosomes and permits the formation of more than one apical domain, resembling the singularity defect observed in yeast. Mechanistically, we show that to become apically clustered, Cdc

Abstract:
Rheumatic valve disease remains prevalent in developing countries, but over the last 50 years there has been a decline in the incidence of rheumatic valve disease and an increase in the prevalence of degenerative valve pathology in northern Europe and North America. In all forms of valve disease, the most appropriate initial diagnostic investigation is almost always the echocardiogram. The most common cause is rheumatic valve disease. Other causes include mitral annular calcification, congenital mitral stenosis, infective endocarditis (very rarely), and systemic lupus erythematosus (Liebman–Sachs endocarditis). The important consequences of mitral stenosis are its effect on left atrial pressure, size, and the pulmonary vasculature; it commonly causes atrial fibrillation. Presenting symptoms are typically exertional fatigue and breathlessness; systemic embolism can occur. Characteristic physical signs are irregular pulse, tapping apex beat, loud first heart sound, opening snap, and an apical low-pitched rumbling mid-diastolic murmur.

Abstract:
As noted earlier and as anticipated by Charles and Francis Darwin it has been argued that plants sense the direction of gravity (gravitropism) by movement of starch granules found in cells called statocytes that contain compartments (organelles) called statoliths. The synthesis of statoliths appears to occur in the plastid (plant organelle) compartments called amyloplasts (Figure 7.1, 1). It has been suggested that this gravitropic signal then leads to movement of plant hormones such as indole-3-acetic acid (auxin) (Figure 7.2), through the phloem opposite to the pull of gravity to promote stem growth. Chloroplasts (Figure 7.1, 2) are cell compartments (plastids or organelles) in which photosynthesis is carried out. The process of photosynthesis, discussed more fully later, is accompanied by the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) from adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and inorganic phosphate (Pi) (Figure 7.3). ATP is consumed and converted to ADP and Pi in living systems. The cycle of production and consumption allows ATP to serve as an “energy currency” to pay for the reactions in living systems. Beyond this generally recognized critical function of chloroplasts, it has recently been pointed out that light/ dark conditions affect alternative splicing of genes which may be necessary for proper plant responses to varying light conditions. The organelles or plastids which contain the pigments for photosynthesis and the amyloplasts that store starch are only two of many kinds of plastids. Other plastids, leucoplasts for example, hold the enzymes for the synthesis of terpenes, and elaioplasts store fatty acids. Apparently, all plastids are derived from proplastids which are present in the pluripotent apical and root meristem cells. The cell wall (Figure 7.1, 3) is the tough, rigid layer that surrounds cells. It is located on the outside of the flexible cell membrane, thus adding fixed structure. A representation of a portion of the cell wall (as made up of cellulose and peptide cross-linking) is shown below in Figure 7.7. The cells will have different sizes as a function of where they are found (e.g., leaf, stalk, root), but in every case, the cell wall limits the size of the membrane that lies within.

Abstract:
The objective was to assess deformity correction and bone-screw force associated respectively with concave manipulation first, convex manipulation first, and different differential rod contouring configurations. Instrumentation scenarios were computationally simulated for 10 AIS cases with mean thoracic Cobb angle (MT) of 54±8°, apical vertebral rotation (AVR) of 19±2° and thoracic kyphosis of 21±9°. Instrumentations with major correction maneuvers using the concave side rod were first simulated; instrumentations with major correction maneuvers using the convex side rod were then simulated. Simulated correction maneuvers were concave/convex rod translation followed by apical vertebral derotation and then convex/concave rod translation. There were no significant differences in deformity corrections and bone-screw forces between concave rod translation first and convex rod translation first with differential rod contouring. Increasing differential rod contouring angle and concave rod diameter improved AVR correction and increased the TK and bone-screw forces; the effect on the MT Cobb angle was not clinically significant.

Abstract:
Glycosuria—glucose reabsorption in the proximal tubule is carried out by two different pairs of apical Na<sup>+</sup>-dependent (SGLT1 and -2) and basolateral Na<sup>+</sup>-independent (GLUT1 and -2) glucose transporters. Abnormalities in renal glucose transport can be seen in association with other defects of proximal tubular transport. Familial renal glycosuria is a rare autosomal recessive condition caused by mutations in the SGLT2-encoding gene, SLC5A2. Phosphate-handling disorders—the plasma concentration of inorganic phosphate depends on the balance between intestinal absorption, renal excretion, and the internal contribution from bone. Changes of serum phosphate levels can be caused by numerous inherited and acquired conditions. Disorders associated with increased urinary phosphate excretion and low serum phosphate levels produce symptoms that mainly affect the bones: rickets in children and osteomalacia in adults. Magnesium-handling disorders—normal plasma magnesium concentration is achieved by variation of urinary magnesium excretion in response to altered uptake by the intestine. The main site of magnesium absorption is the small bowel, via paracellular simple diffusion at high intraluminal concentrations, and via active transcellular uptake through the magnesium channel TRPM6 at low concentrations. Regulation and fine-tuning of serum magnesium concentration occurs primarily in the kidney. Genetic disorders of magnesium handling include Gitelman’s syndrome. Aminoaciduria and renal Fanconi’s syndrome—most amino acids (except for tryptophan, which is protein bound) are freely filtered by the glomerulus, after which 95 to 99.9% are reabsorbed in the proximal tubules by apical Na<sup>+</sup>-dependent cotransporters and Na<sup>+</sup>-independent cotransporters. Aminoaciduria is defined as urinary excretion of more than 5% of the filtered load of an amino acid. Renal Fanconi’s syndrome is characterized by a generalized defect of both Na<sup>+</sup>-coupled and receptor-mediated proximal tubular transport.

IoT enables to integrate the different devices and makes it possible to communicate with each other. It makes life easier and upgrades the application’s usage to the next level. The integration of WSNs with IoT will help to reach apical of the usage of applications. The combination of WSNs and IoT will open up new doors in almost all the possible fields however the amalgamation of both the technology needs careful consideration about bringing the both on same level. The IoT is considered a mighty giant with enormous power and capability. On the other side, WSNs are miniature having limited resources but the tremendous capability to penetrate in almost every aspect of life. WSN’s limited resources are the main concern while integrating it with the IoT. The integration will make it possible to access the sensor node from any part of the world. It implies that now the sensor node is open for any heterogeneous internet user in the world. It will cause a security issue. Moreover, the topology and addressing of WSNs are different from the normal internet which needs to be addressed during the integrations. And there are other challenges too which we discussed in depth in this chapter.

Abstract:
This study examines the sibilant fricatives produced by seventeen Galician and twenty-two Portuguese speakers. Galician and Portuguese are closely related languages that present important continuities, although it is in their phonological and phonetic systems that they diverge most obviously. By means of the analysis of spectra and spectral moments, chiefly the spectral mean, postalveolar sibilants and front (alveolar or alveolo-dental) sibilants are differentiated in both Galician and Portuguese. Much variation has been found in front sibilant realizations among speakers and even between different realizations by the same speaker. This variation is especially striking among male Galician speakers, where it was possible to distinguish three different articulations, identified here as an apico-aveolar [s̺], a lamino-alveolar [s], and a lamino-dental [s̪] sibilant. The research results point to a loss of phonetic diversity on the Portuguese side of the political border, while in Galicia it is better preserved, although it is losing ground.

Full text
Abstract:
Aside from grafting onto already established rootstock or the development of roots from a planted cane (vide supra), root systems develop from the radicle in the plant’s seed. Both as roots begin to form from the cane, and as the sprouting seed coat opens in response to soil temperature, moisture, and genetic programming left in place when the seed formed, the roots begin to grow and interact with the rhizosphere. Similarly, signals received by rootstock where grafting has been effected also occur. The roots begin to bring moisture and food to produce and support the stem and, eventually, the leaves, flowers, and fruit. Heavily fruited plants such as grapes require additional support for the stems. In the roots, epidermal (surface) cells elongate and develop into root hairs. Beneath the epidermal cells it appears that the phloem cells which bring the starch bodies (amyloplasts) to the root tips and help direct which way “down” is, develop first. Then xylem elements develop in order to move the minerals into the system. Most of the minerals are absorbed through channels developing in the walls of the growing undifferentiated cells (the meristems). Because of concentration gradients (i.e., there is less on one side of a cell membrane than on the other), some minerals appear to be actively transported into the cells of the xylem (presumably through similar channels) in response to signals emanating from the plant. From the xylem cells, the minerals and water move upward into the apical meristem and get distributed to other regions. Interestingly, although most of the cells are derived from the same group of meristems which thus might be considered true stem cells, it is genetic programming which permits that differentiation. Thus, the derivatives of the meristems undergo transformation and develop into various cell types that perform the different functions (Figure 6.1). Relatively recently there has been an increased interest in what has been the largely unexplored biology of roots.

Abstract:
As noted earlier in the general description of the plant cell, there is a site at which photosynthesis, the process which allows plants to capture sunlight and convert it into energy, occurs. It is this process which has produced oxygen on the planet, food for herbivores, and the cool green hills of Earth we enjoy today. The capture of sunlight allows the grape vine to grow and produce fruit. Of course, while the discussion of the “light reactions” (capture of sunlight) and the subsequent so-called “dark reactions” (producing carbohydrates) is necessarily brief here, it is, nonetheless, an exciting story. We are only now beginning to understand a little of it. The earlier picture (Figure 7.1) of the plant cell is repeated here (Figure 9.1) so that the position of the chloroplast is seen. Refer to page 24 for a discussion of the numbered items. As the leaves begin to develop alongside the apical meristem, proplastids, which are present in the meristematic regions of the plant, are formed. Proplastids grow into plas¬tids (such as amyloplasts and chloroplasts) as they mature in different ways dictated by the plant’s DNA. Some plastids (e.g., chloroplasts) carry pigments, discussed more fully below, that allow them to carry out photosynthesis. Others are used for storage of fat, starch (amyloplasts) or specialized proteins. Still other plastids are used to synthesize specialized compounds needed to form different tissues or to produce compounds for protection (e.g., tannins). Each plastid builds multiple copies of its DNA as it grows. If it is growing rapidly, it makes more genome copies than if it is growing slowly. The genes, ignoring epigenetic (literally “above the gene”) and postgenetic (literally “after the gene”) modifications, about which we still have much to learn, encode plastid proteins, the regulation of whose expression controls differentiation and thus which plastid is eventually formed. However, despite the differentiation of plastids, it appears that many plastids remain connected to each other by tubes called stromules through which proteins can be exchanged.

Abstract:
Stimulation of living mammalian cells is primarily accomplished by the delivery of chemical agents to single cells or cell populations. Due to the fast response time of diffusion for these agents over the small size scale of individual cells, localized stimulation is limited. Currently, there are alternate techniques that can produce localized gradients of chemical stimulants over single cells, but they lack the ability for long time scale events that are requisite for many cellular processes because of this diffusion limitation. We have developed a device that is able to create chemical agent

Abstract:
Hemodynamics constitutes a critical factor in the formation of intracranial aneurysms. However, little is known about how an intracranial arterial wall responds to a hemodynamic insult, and how that response contributes to aneurysm formation. Unlike straight arterial segments (which respond to increased flow by expansive remodeling) and sinuses opposing bifurcation apices (which harbor recirculation flows and are prone to atherosclerotic development), aneurysmal degeneration occurs on the apical side of the bifurcation in the immediate peri-apical region, where flow creates very high wall shea

Abstract:
An experimental study of heat transfer in a radially rotating trapezoidal duct with two opposite walls roughened by 45° staggered ribs and mid-rib bleeds from the apical side wall is performed. Centerline heat transfer variations on two rib-roughened surfaces are measured for radially outward flows with and without bleeds at test conditions of Reynolds number (Re), rotation number (Ro) and density ratio (Δρ/ρ) in the ranges of 15000–30000, 0–0.8 and 0.04–0.31, respectively. Geometrical configurations and rotation numbers tested have considerably extended the previous experiences that offer pra

Abstract:
A single endothelial cell was deformed at the apical surface by binding a functionalized nanoelectrode probe to a predetermined location on the surface of the cell. After identifying the point of contact, as recognized by the electronic signature of the nanoelectrode, and allowing binding to the cell of the fibronectin-functionalized tip, a focal adhesion site was induced at the probe site. The probe was displaced thereby applying a prescribed shear deformation to the surface of the cell. Locations of membrane rafts were identified by cholera toxin, and focal adhesion proteins were assessed us

Abstract:
The mitral valve annulus is an anatomical structure joining the leaflets and left ventricle wall. It is divided into the fibrous annulus in the anteromedial section and the myocardium annulus in the posterolateral section, according to annulus histology. Two trigones are in the fibrous annulus. Mitral annulus supports leaflets in the valve coaptation and controls inflow hemodynamics during a cardiac cycle. When the mitral valve is fully open during diastole, inflow drag force on the leaflets and chordae pulls the leaflets approximately apically. As mitral valve leaflets coaptate during systole

Abstract:
Cerebral aneurysms tend to develop at bifurcation apices or the outer side of curved vessels where the blood vessel wall experiences complex hemodynamics. In vivo studies have recently revealed that the initiation of cerebral aneurysms is confined to a well-defined hemodynamic microenvironment. Specifically aneurysms form where the vessel wall experiences high fluid shear stress (wall shear stress, WSS) and flow is accelerating, so that the wall is exposed to a positive spatial gradient in the fluid shear stress (wall shear stress gradient, WSSG)[1,2].

In this study, we tried to create an object transportation system using Daphnia magna. We developed a target object for the transportation experiment using a 5-mm-diameter transparent acrylic rod with a hole in the lower part. Black film and a small white ball were attached to the top surface of the object in order to improve contrast and allow easier position detection during image processing. The daphnia were first directed to the guide point, about 10 mm opposite the desired transportation direction. They were then guided to collide with the object. If a collision did not occur, they were g
