Insulin resistance (IR) is a physiological condition in which cells fail to respond to the normal actions of the hormone insulin. The body produces insulin, but the cells in the body become resista...
Colistin (polymyxin E) is a polymyxin antibiotic produced by certain strains of Bacillus polymyxa var. colistinus. Colistin is a mixture of cyclic polypeptides colistin A and B. Colistin is effecti...
Wigle and Singleton at the University of North Carolina have shown that small molecules interfering with RecA function in the cell may be useful in the creation of new antibiotic drugs.[5] Since ma...

Nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) are a class of devices integrating electrical and mechanical functionality on the nanoscale. NEMS form the logical next miniaturization step from so-called micr...
Metastasis, or metastatic disease, is the spread of a cancer or disease from one organ or part to another not directly connected with it. The new occurrences of disease thus generated are referred ...

An immune complex is formed from the integral binding of an antibody to a soluble antigen. The bound antigen and antibody act as a specific epitope, and is referred to as a singular immune complex....
Gait training or gait rehabilitation is the act of learning how to walk, either as a child, or, more frequently, after sustaining an injury or disability. Physical therapists, or physiotherapists, ...

Follistatin-related protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FSTL1 gene. This gene encodes a protein with similarity to follistatin, an activin-binding protein. It contains an FS mo...
An antibiotic is an agent that either kills or inhibits the growth of a microorganism.[1][2] The term antibiotic was first used in 1942 by Selman Waksman and his collaborators in journal article...
Laser-ultrasonics uses lasers to generate and detect ultrasonic waves.[1] It is a non-contact technique used to measure materials thickness, detect flaws and materials characterization. The basic c...
Electrons exist in energy levels (i.e. atomic orbitals) within an atom. Atomic orbitals are quantized, meaning they exist as defined values instead of being continuous (see: atomic orbitals). Elect...
