Transforming growth factor beta

Transforming growth factor beta, TGF-β (transforming growth factor β) - a protein consisting of three isoforms: TGF-β1, TGF-β2, TGF-β3. It belongs to a larger family of proteins called the superfamily of transforming growth factor beta, which includes, inter alia, inhibin, activin, AMH, bone morphogenetic proteins. TGF-β controls the proliferation and differentiation of most cell types. It has an anti-inflammatory effect. In simplified terms, the transforming growth factor beta manages cells during their development and contributes to wound healing. In the normal state TGF-β is captured by the fibrillin glycoprotein into the connective tissue. Marfana TGF-β is not bound by fibrillin and remains a free part of the blood, leading to abnormal cellular tissue behavior. See terms related to medical terms and related wikipedia. wiki

Boards of thickness of standing trees

Boards of thickness of standing trees are a set of numbers, representing the average thickness of a tree depending on some of its dimensions. The most common are the tree and the height of the tree. In Poland, tables of tree thickness have been developed by Grundner and Schwappach (commonly called Schwappach tables). They give the thickness of the whole tree and the thickness of the tree's thickness depending on the breast and tree height. Plaques were developed for pine, spruce, fir, larch, beech, oak, birch and alder. Some tree species have been developed for the tree species. There are two tables for pine trees: aged 80 and over 80 years. In Poland, there are also boards of thickness for trees in Czuraja, Radwański and Strzemeskie. Original thickness tables for pine and spruce developed by Radwański. Determining the thickness of a tree based on the breadth and height based plate tables requires prior measurement of these tree features. However, the thickness of the tree can

Banisty Żleb

The western slope of Ornak. Breadman first on the left Baniste Żleb - one of several gulls on the western slopes of Ornak in the Western Tatras. They come from the ridge of Ornak to the Starorobocia Valley. These, counting from the Iława Valley in the south direction, are: Hell, Bankier Żleb, Intermediate Żleb, Graniczniak, Żleb on Pass and Żleb pod Pyszna. Banister's name is derived from the place in the upper part of the so-called banister. Formerly there was a mine in it, or pumpkins. It was one of the oldest mines in the Polish Tatras. The documents are already quoted in 1520 as a company with King Zygmunt I Old, but perhaps it was already in the 15th century, because a document from the second half of the 16th century called it "Old Robot". The name of the mine comes from the name of Starorobociańska Valley.

Aramids - a group of polymers, a type of fiber-forming polyamides. Their characteristic feature is the presence in their main chains aromatic groups. Some aramids contain only aromatic groups between amide bonds, while others contain aliphatic moieties. The more aromatic groups it contains, the greater the mechanical, thermal and fire resistance, but also the solubility, which increases the difficulty of processing. Aramids as fibers have much higher tensile strength than other polyamides. This is due to two facts: Aramid fibers produce bulletproof vests, protective layers for firefighters, aviators, rally drivers and astronauts. In addition, the rods that make up the masts of yachts, ski poles and other elements that require high mechanical resistance are manufactured from the aramids. Finally, these polymers are used in the form of thin films - which are then pressed between other materials to form laminates with high mechanical strength. Aramid was invented in 1965 by Stepha

Optical time multiplexer

Optical Time Multiplexing (OTDM) - a type of time division multiplexing in which multiplexing and demultiplexing are performed in an optical way. Unlike the TDM electrical mismatch, electro-optical and optoelectric conversion are implemented in the baseband. Multiplexing and demultiplexing are already subjected to an optical signal. E / O processing is performed before multiplexing, even at lower bitrates. Similarly, the O / E conversion occurs after demultimplexation. In high-speed TDM multiplexing, there is a problem of limited speed of electronic circuits. The speed of the electrical part of the system must be equal to the multiplied signal speed. In case of OTDM, this problem disappears because the electrical system is working only in the baseband, before the multiplexer and after the demux. First stage of the process The first step in the process is to sample the signal from the primary channels. A series of optical pulses characteristic for the primary channel is generated.

Harber's triangle

Harber's triangle - Harber's triangle is called the irreversible social loss caused by the introduction of a tax. Harber's triangle took its name from the name of an economist who examined the subject. The loss caused by the introduction of a tax on goods can be expressed in terms of reducing the surplus of the consumer. The figure above shows the consumer surplus before and after the introduction of a perfectly competitive AD tax, which is wholly transferred to the final price of the good. Simple d is a compensated curve of demand for a given good. Before the introduction of the tax the point of equilibrium was point B. Its introduction at AD shifts the supply curve up by a value equal to the amount of tax, and the new point of equilibrium becomes E. The surplus of the consumer thus decreases with ABED. Part of this loss (AGED) could be a source of increased utility as a result of the allocation of these funds to finance state spending. The rest (EGB) called Harber'

Merger of power

Merger of power - the phenomenon of the actual (but not the formal) takeover by the government of the powers of the parliament. It occurs in the Westminster model of the Parliamentary-Cabinet regime. The condition for the merger of power is a two-party party system (therefore - one-party government) and the merger of the prime minister and leader of the winning party. In this situation the prime minister has a disciplined parliamentary majority. So he can lead his policy, being a certain support of the parliament. This, however, does not have the potential to influence the government's policy (despite the formally large powers). An example of a fusion of authority is the United Kingdom.

For these reasons they were not popular. It was not until before and during the Second World War that successful maneuvers were made (eg M1 Garand, SKS, Samozariadka, G41), but were quickly replaced by automatic rifles and carbines that could fire in series (FN FAL, AK). > Currently, produced self-propelled rifles are the most commonly used rifles (SWDs) or civilian versions of automatic rifles that are not capable of firing in series.
