and some of their physical and chemical water properties (temperature, pH) are similar. In the contrary, the distribution of species is very heterogeneous. Fifty per cent of species were found only in one or two localities. Moreover, the Park is located in a high altitude area (2238 m.a. s.l.) and the composition of species is similar to that found in temperate zones. In our view, if some ecolo...

Myocardial fibrosis is an important risk factor for cardiac arrhythmias. Previous experimental and numerical studies have shown that the texture and spatial distribution of fibrosis may play an important role in arrhythmia onset. Here, we investigate how spatial heterogeneity of fibrosis affects arrhythmia onset using numerical methods. We generate various tissue textures that differ by the mea...

Single-cell analyses of 4,645 cells in multiple cell types reveal metastatic melanoma ecosystem.

Hearing Loss (HL) represents high genetic heterogeneity with an incidence of almost 1 out of 500 newborns in most populations. Approximately half of the cases have a genetic basis that most of them are autosomal recessive non-syndromic (ARNSHL) with DFNB1-related defect in many worldwide populations. Given the heterogeneity of the trait together with the unique infrastructure of Iranian populat...
