BACKGROUND: Some low molecular weight heparins (LMWHs) prolong survival of cancer patients and inhibit experimental metastasis.The underlying mechanisms are still not clear but it has been suggested that LMWHs (at least in part) limit metastasis by preventing cancer cell-induced destruction of the endothelial glycocalyx.METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDIN
Abstract Background Marine fishes have been shown to display low levels of genetic structuring and associated high levels of gene flow, suggesting shallow evolutionary trajectories and, possibly, limited or lacking adaptive divergence among local populations.We investigated variation in 98 gene-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for
This paper investigates ballistic performance of two different ceramic-based armor designs using finite element analysis.The first design is a bi-layer armor consists of a ceramic front layer and a Kevlar-29 composite backing layer.The second design white gold new victory theater consists of a ceramic filled honeycomb front layer and a Kevlar-29 co
