germline and somatic stem cells are distinct types of stem cells that are dedicated to reproduction and somatic tissue regeneration, respectively. germline stem cells (gscs), which can self-renew and generate gametes, are unique stem cells in that they are solely dedicated to transmit genetic information from generation to generation. we developed a strategy for the establishment of germline st...

An (N +N) evolutionary algorithm is considered for the problem of finding the maximum cardinality matching in a graph. It is shown that the performance of the evolutionary algorithm is the same as classical simulated annealing. That is, the evolutionary algorithm cannot find the maximum matching in polynomial average time for a family of bipartite graphs considered in this paper although there ...

background and aims: natural killer t (nkt) cells have been suggested to play critical roles in a wide range of immune responses especially against hepatotropic pathogens such as hepatitis c virus (hcv). in  the  present  study,  we  investigated  the  status  of  nkt  cells  by producing interleukin-17 cytokine in  peripheral  blood.  patients and methods: as case-control study, 15 patients wi...
