The Chimera of Circular Insanity and the labours of Thyreoidea

This article describes a tissue transplantation technique that was designed to test the signaling and patterning properties of basal forebrain during craniofacial...

One of the distinctive characteristics of circular shafts is their ability to maintain their cross-sectional integrity under torsion. In other words, each cross-section continues to exist as a flat, unaltered entity, simply rotating like a solid, rigid slab. To understand the distribution of shearing stress within such a shaft, consider a cylindrical section inside this circular shaft. This section has a length of L and a radius of R, with one end fixed. The radius of the cylindrical section is...

Generation of lymph node/fat pad chimeras for the study of lymph node stromal cell origin is described. The method involves the isolation of lymph nodes from newborn mice and embryonic fat pads, the generation of chimeric lymph node-fat pads, and their transfer under the kidney capsule of a host...

Here, we present chimera assembly by plasmid recovery and restriction enzyme site insertion (CAPRRESI), a protocol based on the insertion of restriction enzyme sites into synonym DNA sequences and functional plasmid recovery. This protocol is a fast and low-cost method for fusing protein-coding...

Uniform circular motion is a specific type of motion in which an object travels in a circle with a constant speed. For example, any point on a propeller spinning at a constant rate is undergoing uniform circular motion. The second, minute, and hour hands of a watch also undergo uniform circular motion. It is hard to believe that points on these rotating objects are actually accelerating, even though the rotation rate is constant. To understand this, we must analyze the motion in terms of...
