THE PROTECTIVE ROLE OF BROWN ADIPOSE TISSUE IN CARDIAC CELL DAMAGE AFTER MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION AND HEART FAILURE

The protective role of brown adipose tissue in cardiac cell damage after myocardial infarction and heart failure

Abstract Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and related cardiovascular disease complications are the leading causes of mortality worldwide.Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is thermogenic and characterized by the uncoupling protein expression.Recent studies have found that in cardiovascular diseases, activated read more BAT can effectively improve the prog

Improving the efficiency of sanitation of urological catheters with various types of exposure to ultrasound emitters

The purpose of the article is to determine rational modes for safe and effective ultrasound exposure in order to sanitation urological catheters.It is shown that using an amplitude-modulated or here pulsed power supply mode, it is possible here to achieve an increase in amplitude, i.e.to improve the quality of cleaning and reduce heat generation.As

Force Transmission in Disordered Fibre Networks

Cells residing in living tissues apply forces to their immediate surroundings to promote the restructuration of the extracellular matrix fibres and to transmit mechanical signals to other cells.Here we use a minimalist model to study how these forces, applied locally by cell contraction, propagate through the fibrous network in the extracellular ma
