Growth Control: Function Follows Form
نویسنده
چکیده
Cell division, intuitively, is often dependent upon increases in cellular mass and volume. Less obvious is the reciprocal regulation of growth by the cell division cycle. In budding yeast, this link is mediated by the cell-cycle-dependent polarization of actin.

Evaluating Different Patches, Using LFA Method to Control Wind Erosion (Case Study: Hanitiyeh Rangelands of Ahvaz City)
In the long-term, wind erosion has considerable impact on rangelands. The aim of this study is to understand the changes of Hanitiyeh Rangelands located 30 kilometers east of Ahvaz and its function. Two transects, 42 meters in length, in wind gradient, patch and inter patch with 5 repeats that included shrub log complex, bush, grass, shrub, shrub-grass and bare open soil were measured. In addit...
متن کاملMechanical control of tissue growth: function follows form.
E arly biologists sought to identify vital life forces they believed responsible for the exquisite intricacy of tissue pattern and functional control. Later forms of ‘‘vitalism’’ downplayed the role of mystical powers and focused more on the importance of internal forces that emerged from the specific arrangement of tissue components, with particular emphasis on the role of reciprocal mechanica...
متن کاملIons and Pollen Tube Growth
Ions play a crucial role in the control of pollen tube growth. In this review we focus on four that seem especially important: calcium (Ca2+), protons (H+), potassium (K+), and chloride (Cl–). Ca2+ in the extracellular medium is essential for growth; it forms a steep intracellular tip-focused gradient, and exhibits a prominent extracellular tip-directed Ca2+ influx. pH is also essential for gro...
متن کاملAsymptotic Methods.nb
We develop symbolic methods of asymptotic approximations for solutions of linear ordinary differential equations and use them to stabilize numerical calculations. Our method follows classical analysis for first-order systems and higherorder scalar equations where growth behavior is expressed in terms of elementary functions. We then recast our equations in mollified form thereby obtaining stabi...
متن کاملMaternal Serum Levels of Transforming Growth Factor ß1 (TGF-ß1) in Normal and Preeclamptic Pregnancies
Background: Successful pregnancy in allopregnant women depends upon the control of graft rejection mechanisms. It has been suggested that some immunosuppressive cytokines contribute to successful pregnancy and transplantation. Transforming growth factor beta (TGF- β) exhibits potent immunoregulatory and anti-inflammatory properties which might prolong graft survival. Recent studies suggest a ...
