The results of the various currently-available active middleear implants are discussed. These systems produce high satisfaction (above 85%) in patients with neurosensorial hearing loss. Round window stimulation systems provide excellent results in mixed and conductive hearing loss. Implant removal is required in less than 10% of patients.

    We developed a method to globally capture intra- and inter-chromosomal interactions, and applied it to generate a map at kilobase resolution of the haploid genome of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The map recapitulates known features of genome organization, thereby validating the method, and identifies n...

    Neonatal rat cardiomyocytes were incubated with C(2)-ceramide or the inactive analog dihydro-C(2)-ceramide for up to 6 h. Three-dimensional images of cells loaded with mitotracker green were obtained by confocal microscopy. Dynamin-related protein-1 (Drp-1) and mitochondrial fission protein 1 (Fis1)...

    These results indicate that TNF-alpha did not modulate steroidogenesis in cultured human GLCs. However, NF-kappaB was activated by TNF-alpha. Therefore the activation of NF-kappaB via the TNF-alpha pathway is likely associated with other preovulatory granulosa cell processes important for human ovar...
