Introduction.Granulocytic sarcoma (GS), also known as chloroma or extramedullary myeloblastoma, is a solid tumor composed of primitive precursors of the granulocytic series that include myeloblasts, promyelocytes, and myelocytes.Granulocytic sarcoma is a rare tumor that may develop during acute myeloid leukemia (AML) but less frequently may precede
Carbon Dioxides Capture by Metal-Organic Frameworks Membranes and the Mixed-Matrix Membranes
The growing concern over carbon dioxide emissions has garnered substantial attention globally, as the relentless progression of technology continues to contribute to an increase in the production of this greenhouse gas.Consequently, the capture of carbon dioxide has emerged as a crucial mission to counteract the deleterious influences of climate ch
Development of human alveolar epithelial cell models to study distal lung biology and disease
Summary: Many acute and chronic diseases affect the distal lung alveoli.Alveolar epithelial cell (AEC) lines are needed to better model these diseases.We used de-identified human remnant transplant lungs to develop a method Sinus Mist to establish AEC lines.The lines grow well in 2-dimensional (2D) culture as epithelial monolayers expressing lung p
The Perpetual Diamond: Contrast Reversals Along Thin Edges Create the Appearance of Motion in Objects
The Perpetual Diamond produces motion continuously and unambiguously in one direction despite never physically changing location.The phenomenon consists of a steady, mid-luminance diamond bordered by four thin edge strips and a surrounding background field.The direction of motion is determined by the relative phases of the luminance modulation betw
