Objective
Motile cilia impairment is a common condition in patients with chronically inflamed airways, such as is seen in nasal polyps (NPs). The mechanism underlying this pathogenic condition is complex and not fully understood.
Methods
We investigated the presence and localization of dynein axonemal heavy chain 5 (DNAH5) in motile cilia using immunofluorescence staining in paraffin‐embedded nasal...
Background
Aberrant epithelial remodeling with the ectopic expression of p63 (basal cell markers) is an important pathologic phenomenon seen in chronically inflamed airway epithelium such as in nasal polyps (NPs).
Methods
Biopsies were obtained from 55 NP patients and 18 healthy controls (inferior turbinate). Among NP patients, 15 were treated with oral and nasal steroids, so that two sets of NP...
In the area of cloud infrastructure environment, the management tool to monitor and control the cloud resources is the important factor that can drive the cost benefit of the cloud vendors. But most these tools are bundled within the high cost commercial platforms and are optimized to run on desktop computers. With the vision that Mobile Cloud Computing will be the future technology paradigm that...
Structured light 3D camera is considered as one of the most reliable techniques for 3D reconstruction by producing high accuracy 3D point cloud. However, in case that the camera is slant with object surface, the reflected light into camera may be weakened, resulting the occurrence of outliers (i.e. wrong decoded pixels) in 3D point cloud. State-of-the-art methods to deal with this problem have made...
To evaluate toxicity of silver nanoparticles synthesized by using the reverse micelle formation method, the effects of nanoparticles on lipid peroxidation and morphological changes of cell membranes in human lymphocytes were studied. It was found that under the influence of nanoparticles a reduction in cell viability and formation of excessive levels of reactive oxygen species were observed. Silver...
