BIOCHEMICAL INSIGHT INTO THE PRION PROTEIN FAMILY

Biochemical insight into the prion protein family

Prion protein family comprises proteins, which share not only similarity in their primary structure, but also similarity in their fold.These two groups of similarity presume a parceling in their respective biological function through the common biochemical properties.In this review, biochemical and shurflo 2088-343-435 structural similarities of Pr

Finite element analysis of annuloplasty and papillary muscle relocation on a patient-specific mitral regurgitation model.

ObjectivesFunctional mitral regurgitation (FMR) is a significant complication of left ventricle (LV) dysfunction associated with poor prognosis and commonly treated by undersized ring annuloplasty.This study aimed to quantitatively simulate the treatment outcomes and mitral valve (MV) biomechanics following ring annulopalsty and papillary muscle re
