Bone canaliculi are microscopic canals between the lacunae of ossified bone.The radiating processes of the osteocytes (called filopodia) project into these canals. These cytoplasmic processes are joined together by gap junctions.
Tissue tropism is the range of cells and tissues of a host that support growth of a particular pathogen, such as a virus, bacterium or parasite. [1] [2] Some bacteria and viruses have a broad tissue tropism and can infect many types of cells and tissues. [1] Other viruses may infect primarily a single tissue. [1]
The Rustrela virus has the same genomic structure as the Rubella virus.Rustrela has a few amino acid differences in the protein which binds to host cells. [3] There are four putative B cell epitopes in the fusion (E1) protein of rustrela that are highly conserved with Rubella virus and Ruhugu virus.
Human anatomy (gr. ἀνατομία, "dissection", from ἀνά, "up", and τέμνειν, "cut") is primarily the scientific study of the morphology of the human body. [1]
Paramyxoviridae (from Greek para-“by the side of” and myxa “mucus”) is a family of negative-strand RNA viruses in the order Mononegavirales. [1] [2] Vertebrates serve as natural hosts. [3]
In biology, tissue is an assembly of similar cells and their extracellular matrix from the same embryonic origin that together carry out a specific function. [1] [2] Tissues occupy a biological organizational level between cells and a complete organ.
A syncytium (/ s ɪ n ˈ s ɪ ʃ i ə m /; pl.: syncytia; from Greek: σύν syn "together" and κύτος kytos "box, i.e. cell") or symplasm is a multinucleate cell that can result from multiple cell fusions of uninuclear cells (i.e., cells with a single nucleus), in contrast to a coenocyte, which can result from multiple nuclear divisions without accompanying cytokinesis. [1]
Sindbis virus may have originated in South America. [13] The equine encephalitis viruses and the Sindbis virus are related. The Old World and New World viruses appears to have diverged between 2000 and 3000 years ago. [14] Divergence between the Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus and the eastern equine virus appears to have been ~1400 years ...
