M-Sec

Sec Sect " ' - -

M-sec regulates polarized secretion of inflammatory endothelial chemokines and facilitates CCL2-mediated lymphocyte transendothelial migration.

Activation of endothelial cells by IL-1β triggers the expression of multiple inflammatory cytokines and leukocyte-attracting chemokines. The machineries involved in the secretion of these inducible proteins are poorly understood. With the use of genome-wide transcriptional analysis of inflamed human dermal microvascular endothelial cells, we identified several IL-1β-induced candidate regulators...

GPC/SEC Analysis of Nylon Using Agilent PLgel Columns with HFIP and m-Cresol Solvents

Analysis of a polymer by the LC technique of GPC/SEC reveals information that influences many of the key physical parameters of such material, including strength, brittleness, melt flow, and how easily the material is processed. As such, GPC/SEC is a very important technique for those synthesizing polymers of all kinds. However, for many polymer systems, the choice of solvent for the analysis i...

Shear-wave elastography for breast masses: local shear wave speed (m/sec) versus Young modulus (kPa)

PURPOSE To evaluate and compare the performance of shear-wave elastography (SWE) for breast masses using the local shear wave speed (m/sec) vs. Young modulus (kPa). METHODS A total of 130 breast lesions in 123 women who underwent SWE before ultrasound- guided core needle biopsy or surgical excision were included. With the region-of-interest placed over the stiffest areas of the lesion on SWE,...
