Maintenance of the ES Cell State01:14

Maintenance of the ES Cell State

2.7K
The cells of the blastocyst inner cell mass only remain pluripotent for a short time. This state of pluripotency and self-renewal can be maintained in embryonic stem (ES) cell culture by adding specific chemicals or growth factors to ensure the cells can continue dividing and later differentiate into different cell types. In some cases, the cells are grown on a feeder layer of differentiated cells, which provides the growth factors and extracellular matrix components necessary for stem cell...

Plasticizers01:31

Plasticizers

353
Water-reducers, or plasticizers, are chemical admixtures used in concrete to improve strength and workability. These additives reduce the water-cement ratio without compromising workability, lower the cement content while maintaining the same workability, or increase workability to assist concrete placement in inaccessible areas.
Plasticizers function by using surface-active agents to create repulsive electrostatic forces between cement particles. This dispersion enhances the concrete's...

Plasticity00:58

Plasticity

3.0K
Plasticity is the property where an object loses its elasticity and undergoes irreversible deformation, even after the deformation forces are eliminated. If a material deforms irreversibly without increasing stress or load, then this is called ideal plasticity. For example, when a force is applied to an aluminum rod, it changes its shape, but it does not return to its original shape once the force is removed. Plastic deformation or ductility is thus a permanent deformation or change in the...

Plastic Behavior01:21

Plastic Behavior

535
A material's elastic behavior is characterized by the disappearance of stress once the load is removed, allowing the material to return to its original state. However, when stress surpasses the yield point, yielding commences, marking the onset of plastic deformation or permanent set. This change from elastic to plastic behavior is influenced by the peak stress value and the duration before the load is removed. An intriguing observation occurs when a specimen is loaded, unloaded, and...

Plastic Deformations01:14

Plastic Deformations

412
It is essential to understand how structural members behave under plastic deformation when the bending stress exceeds the material's yield strength. This state of deformation permanently alters the shape of the member, in contrast to the linear elastic behavior observed before yielding. The strain at any point in the member is expressed in terms of maximum strain. Notably, the neutral axis, which coincides with the centroid during elastic bending, shifts away from the centroid under plastic...

Plastic Deformations01:19

Plastic Deformations

442
Plastic deformation represents a fundamental concept in materials science, which explains the irreversible change in the shape of a material when it experiences stress beyond its elastic capability. This phenomenon is important in structural engineering, especially in designing and analyzing cantilever beams—structures that are securely fixed at one end and bear loads at the opposite end. When these beams are subjected to loads within their elastic range, they will return to their...

  • Immunology
  • Cell Biology
  • Molecular Biology

Background:

  • Naive T cells differentiate into effector and memory T cells upon activation.
  • Effector T cells clear antigens, while memory T cells provide long-term immunity.
  • Transcriptional regulators of T cell differentiation are well-studied, but memory maintenance is less understood.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review recent findings on the maintenance of memory T cell subsets.
  • To explore the concept of cellular 'states' and plasticity in effector and memory CD8+ T cells.
  • To highlight the role of active programming in maintaining memory T cell identity.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of recent studies on T cell differentiation and memory.
  • Analysis of research suggesting cellular plasticity in CD8+ T cells.
  • Discussion of transcriptional and epigenetic mechanisms in memory T cell subsets.

Main Results:

  • Effector and memory CD8+ T cells may exist in dynamic cellular states.
  • These states exhibit inherent plasticity, allowing for potential interconversion.
  • Active transcriptional and epigenetic programming are crucial for maintaining distinct memory T cell subset identities.

Conclusions:

  • The maintenance of memory T cell subsets is an active process involving cellular plasticity.
  • Transcriptional and epigenetic programming play a key role in defining and preserving memory T cell identity.
  • Further research into these mechanisms could inform strategies for enhancing long-lived immunity.
