GLIAL EXPRESSION OF SWISS CHEESE (SWS), THE DROSOPHILA ORTHOLOGUE OF NEUROPATHY TARGET ESTERASE (NTE), IS REQUIRED FOR NEURONAL ENSHEATHMENT AND FUNCTION

Mutations in Drosophila Swiss cheese (SWS) or its vertebrate orthologue neuropathy target esterase (NTE), respectively, cause progressive neuronal arrow point degeneration in Drosophila and mice and a complex syndrome in humans that includes mental retardation, spastic paraplegia and blindness.SWS and NTE are widely expressed in neurons but can als

Future cellular systems are expected to use millimeter-wave (mm-Wave) frequency bands in addition to the existing microwave bands under 6 GHz.Severe weather conditions, including sand and dust storms (SDSs) and heavy rainfalls, challenge reliable communications over wireless links Collections at those higher frequencies.In such conditions, besides

An entrapped finger is a relatively uncommon domestic injury.When the finger gets stuck proximal to the proximal interphalangeal joint, the resultant distal edema Conditioner and inappropriate attempts at retrieval can result in circumferential degloving of the skin and injury to the neurovascular structures.We report a technique that can be used i
