CONDITIONAL KNOCKOUT OF TUMOR OVEREXPRESSED GENE IN MOUSE NEURONS AFFECTS RNA GRANULE ASSEMBLY, GRANULE TRANSLATION, LTP AND SHORT TERM HABITUATION.

Conditional knockout of tumor overexpressed gene in mouse neurons affects RNA granule assembly, granule translation, LTP and short term habituation.

In neurons, specific RNAs are assembled into granules, which are translated in dendrites, however the functional consequences of granule assembly are not known.Tumor overexpressed gene (TOG) is a granule-associated protein containing multiple binding sites for heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) A2, another granule component that recogn

Assessment of Embedded Conjugated Polymer Sensor Arrays for Potential Load Transmission Measurement in Orthopaedic Implants

Load transfer through orthopaedic joint implants is poorly understood.The longer-term outcomes of these implants are just starting to be studied, making it imperative to monitor contact loads across the entire joint implant interface to elucidate the force transmission and distribution mechanisms exhibited by these implants in service.This study pr
