Determining alpha-smooth muscle actin expression in embryonic and mesenchymal stem cells of assorted mammals seeded in collagen scaffolds in vitro
… behavior was determined by measuring the diameter change of the scaffolds over time. Alpha-smooth muscle actin presence was determined by immunohistochemical evaluation. This study found that while all the cell types displayed alpha smooth muscle actin presence in monolayer, not every cell …

The Effects of Lowering Cholesterol on Vasodilation
… of serum cholesterol levels by life style changes or by cholesterol lowering medication could reverse or reduce the endothelial dysfunction. The brachial artery diameter was measured by high-resolution ultrasound at rest and during reactive hyperemia pre and postintervention. Fifty-three …

pH-sensitive core-shell nanoparticles for intracellular drug delivery
… core-shell hydrogel nanoparticles of 200 nm in diameter. The protonation of tertiary amine groups on the polyDEAEMA core on moving from extracellular to endolysosomal pH resulted in reversible swelling of the nanoparticles with a 2.8-fold diameter change. With the aid of pH-sensitivity of these …

Long-term Performance of a concrete-lined Tunnel at CERN
… deterioration of the drainage system, inducing a change in the flow regime around the tunnel. This inevitably introduced a new loading condition to the lining, which may have affected the tunnel stability with time. This thesis focuses on the long-term investigation of a horseshoe-shaped …
