Kalman filtering algorithm gives optimal (linear, unbiased and minimum error-variance) estimates of the unknown state vectors of a linear dynamic-observation system, under the regular conditions such as perfect data information; complete noise statistics; exact linear modelling; ideal will-conditioned matrices in computation and strictly...
Although anucleated, blood platelets are extraordinarily
efficient cells and still the subject of fruitful investigations
in haematology, in vascular physiology, in biochemistry,
and more recently in immunology and in physiopathology
where their metabolism has been implicated
as a source of potential effector compounds. It...
The discovery of leptin by Friedman and his colleagues in
1994 was a seminal discovery in the study of metabolism, providing a
new tool to study energy expenditure and appetite regulation. Early
studies actively investigated many aspects of metabolism, obesity, and

Life and death are topics that no one takes lightly. In the cell, death by apoptosis is just as
fundamental as proliferation for the maintenance of normal tissue homeostasis. Too much or
too little apoptosis can lead to developmental abnormality, degenerative diseases, or cancers.
Although apoptosis, or programmed cell death (PCD),...
