Abstract Background Visual opsins are expressed in the compound eyes and ocelli of insects and enable light detection.Three distinct phylogenetic groups of visual opsins are found in insects, named long (LW), short (SW) and ultraviolet (UV) wavelength sensitive opsins.Recently, the LW group was found to be duplicated into the LW2b and the LW2a opsi
The Failure Mode, Effects, and Criticality Analysis (FMECA) is one of the risk analysis techniques proposed by the ISO 14971 Standard.This analysis allows to identify Small Animal Habitats and assess the consequences of faults that affect each component of a complex system.The FMECA is a forward-type technique used for highlighting critical points
Late-term complications of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) are numerous and include incomplete engraftment.One possible mechanism of incomplete engraftment after HCT is cytokine-mediated suppression or dysfunction of the bone marrow microenvironment.Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) elaborate cytokines that nurture or stimulate the marrow m
