USING A CELLULAR AUTOMATA-MARKOV MODEL TO RECONSTRUCT SPATIAL LAND-USE PATTERNS IN ZHENLAI COUNTY, NORTHEAST CHINA

Using a Cellular Automata-Markov Model to Reconstruct Spatial Land-Use Patterns in Zhenlai County, Northeast China

Decadal to centennial land use and land cover change has been consistently singled out as a key element and an important driver of global environmental change, playing an essential bostik mvp role in balancing energy use.Understanding long-term human-environment interactions requires historical reconstruction of past land use and land cover changes

Notch-RBP-J signaling regulates the mobilization and function of endothelial progenitor cells by dynamic modulation of CXCR4 expression in mice.

Bone marrow (BM)-derived endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) have therapeutic potentials in promoting tissue regeneration, but how these cells are modulated in vivo has been elusive.Here, we report that RBP-J, the critical transcription product factor mediating Notch signaling, modulates EPC through CXCR4.In a mouse partial hepatectomy (PHx) model,
