In this investigation, the surface-rolling process was performed to improve the performance of PM (powder metallurgy) parts. Different rolling temperatures were applied and the effect of rolling temperature on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the surface dense layers in the samples were investigated. In the study, room temperature and temperatures of 100 ◦C, 200 ◦C, 300 ◦C were s...

In most organs, leukocyte attachment to the endothelium of blood vessels requires capture and rolling before firm adhesion is initiated by integrin activation and/or redistribution, which can be initiated by immobilized chemokines binding their cognate receptors on rolling cells. Such arrest chemokines are present on the endothelial surface under physiologic or pathologic conditions, necessary,...

Production of thin steel strips with 0.18-0.26 mm thickness is about 0.75 of annual production of the two stand reversing cold mill, while its efficiency is 60%. This is due to the fact that after montaging the grinded work rolls, rolling thin steel strips (with thicknesses less than 0.18 millimeters) is unavailable. Initially, unsuitable surface roughness, the friction between rolls and the st...

Voltage dependent calcium channels (VDCC) participate in regulation of neuronal Ca(2+). The Rolling mouse Nagoya (Cacna1a(tg-rol)) is a spontaneous P/Q type VDCC mutant, which has been suggested as an animal model for some human neurological diseases such as autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxia (SCA6), familial hemiplegic migraine and episodic ataxia type-2. Morphology of Purkinje cell (PC) den...

Selectins have previously been shown to tether a flowing leukocyte to a vessel wall and mediate rolling. Here, we report that an intergrin, VLA-4, can also support tethering and rolling. Blood T lymphocytes and alpha 4 integrin-transfected cells can tether in shear flow, and then roll, through binding of the intergrin VLA-4 to purified VCAM-1 on the wall of a flow chamber. VLA-4 transfectants s...

Granulocyte recruitment during the acute inflammatory response is initiated by their rolling along the endothelial lining of postcapillary venules. To determine whether expression of L-selectin alone is sufficient for rolling, the murine pre-B lymphocytic cell line 300.19, which does not bind E- or P-selectin, was transfected with human L-selectin cDNA, which led to stable L-selectin expression...

Rolling represents the initial step leading to leukocyte extravasation from blood vessels during an inflammatory reaction. In vitro studies indicate that P-selectin could be one of the ligands on endothelium involved in the rolling phenomenon, although the molecular determinants responsible for this transient attachment in vivo are still undefined. Our objectives were to develop a blocking mono...

The contents of the sulfur amino acids, and the activities of cystathionine beta-synthase and cystathionine gamma-lyase were measured in various regions of the brain and several other tissues in both normal mice and rolling mice Nagoya. The cystathionine content and cystathionine beta-synthase activity were found to be unevenly distributed in various regions of the brain in both normal mice and...

Regulatory T cells (Tregs) play critical roles in restricting T cell-mediated inflammation. In the skin, this is dependent on expression of selectin ligands required for leukocyte rolling in dermal microvessels. However, whether there are differences in the molecules used by Tregs and proinflammatory T cells to undergo rolling in the skin remains unclear. In this study, we used spinning disk co...
