GOOD AND BAD CHILDREN IN METABOLIC NETWORKS

Good and bad children in metabolic networks

Equilibrium bifurcations arise from sign changes of Jacobian telemarkskongen flue determinants, as parameters are varied.Therefore we address the Jacobian determinant for metabolic networks with general reaction kinetics.Our approach is based on the concept of Child Selections: each (mother) metabolite is mapped, injectively, to one of those (child

Successful auxiliary two-staged partial resection liver transplantation (ASPIRE-LTx) for end-stage liver disease to avoid small-for-size situations

Abstract Background Risks for living-liver donors are lower in case of a left liver donation, however, due to lower graft volume, the risk for small-for-size situations in the recipients increases.This study aims to prevent small-for-size situations in recipients using bar drain board an auxiliary two-staged partial resection liver transplantation

The Glucocorticoid Receptor in Cardiovascular Health and Disease

The glucocorticoid receptor is a member of the nuclear receptor family that controls many distinct gene networks, governing various aspects of development, metabolism, inflammation, and the stress response, as well as other key biological processes in the cardiovascular system.Recently, research in both animal models and humans has begun to unravel
