Flow Cytometry01:23

Flow Cytometry

13.2K
The development of flow cytometry techniques began in 1934 with initial attempts by Andrew Moldavan, a bacteriologist who counted the cells in a flowing capillary system. Moldavan pumped cells through a capillary tube focused under a microscope for visualization. The invention of photometry allowed the measurement of differentially-stained cells, and Louis Kamentsky developed the first multiparameter flow cytometer in 1965 to identify and count the cancer cells in cervical tissue specimens.

General External Flow Characteristics01:26

General External Flow Characteristics

236
The study of external flow is essential for creating structures and objects that interact efficiently and safely with moving fluids, such as air or water. When a body is immersed in a flowing fluid, it experiences two primary forces: drag, which opposes motion along the flow direction, and lift, which acts perpendicular to the flow. The shape, size, and orientation of the object influence these forces.Streamlined and Blunt Bodies in External FlowObjects in fluid flow are classified as...

Gradually Varying Flow01:29

Gradually Varying Flow

89
Gradually varying flow (GVF) in open channels describes situations where water depth changes slowly along the channel due to factors like non-uniform bed slope, channel shape variations, or obstructions. This flow type occurs when the depth adjusts gradually to balance gravitational forces, shear forces, and energy requirements, resulting in a low rate of depth change.Characteristics of Gradually Varying FlowGVF is commonly observed in natural streams, rivers, and canals, where flow depth...

Plane Potential Flows01:23

Plane Potential Flows

423
Plane potential flows simplify fluid motion by assuming the fluid to be irrotational and incompressible. These characteristics allow these flows to be described by a velocity potential function, ϕ, representing the flow speed in a given direction, and a stream function, ψ, that visualizes the flow path, both governed by Laplace's equation. These parameters help in estimating flow patterns, velocity distributions, and pressure fields around various hydraulic structures.

Flow Table Test01:12

Flow Table Test

201
The flow table test is an established method used to assess the workability of concrete, particularly useful for evaluating highly flowable concrete mixes. This test employs an apparatus that consists of a wooden board topped with a steel plate, collectively weighing 35 pounds. The board is connected to a base via a hinge and measures 27.6 inches on each side.
Concrete is placed within a truncated cone mold that is 8 inches high with an 8-inch base diameter and a 5-inch top diameter. The...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) is modulated by endoplasmic reticulum-plasma membrane (ER-PM) contact sites. Enforcing these ER-PM contacts with tethering proteins unexpectedly inhibits, rather than enhances, SOCE.

Background:

  • Membrane contact sites (MCS) facilitate communication between organelles.
  • ER-PM MCS are crucial for cellular functions, including calcium signaling.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the modulation of ER-PM MCS during SOCE.
  • To determine the effect of enforced ER-PM MCS on SOCE.
  • To understand the regulatory mechanisms of calcium entry at ER-PM interfaces.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized live-cell imaging techniques.
  • Employed genetic manipulation to tether ER and PM proteins.
  • Quantified calcium influx during SOCE.

Main Results:

  • ER-PM MCS dynamics are altered during SOCE.
  • Artificial enhancement of ER-PM MCS via tethering proteins inhibits SOCE.
  • Specific tethering proteins negatively impact calcium entry efficiency.

Conclusions:

  • ER-PM MCS are dynamically regulated during SOCE.
  • Over-stabilization of ER-PM contacts can impair calcium signaling.
  • The precise regulation of MCS is critical for proper SOCE function.
