Vagal intramuscular arrays (IMAs) have been shown to form complexes with intramuscular interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC). We tested the hypothesis that associations between vagal nerve endings and ICC arise in fetal development. Intraganglionic laminar endings (IGLEs) and IMAs were identified by applying 1,1'-dioctadecyl-3,3,3 0 ,3 0 -tetramethylindocarbocyanineperchlorate (DiI) to vagal nerve trunks and myenteric plexus (MP) and intramuscular (IM) ICC were immunolabeled with antibodies to c-Kit in fetal and early postnatal mice (E16-P7). At E16, c-Kit immunoreactive cells were abundant in the primordial smooth muscle, with early ICC networks discernable by E18 and ongoing organization at P1 and P7. The distribution of vagal endings was found to change during the course of development, with significantly more putative IGLEs in the prenatal compared to the postnatal period and less IMAs in the prenatal compared to postnatal period. Associations of ICC with both IGLEs and IMAs were detected as early as E16 and were maintained into postnatal life. These findings suggest that vagal fibers begin to associate with ICC during prenatal development. Future studies will be needed to determine the mechanisms through which vagal endings and ICC interact. Anat Rec, 298:1780Rec, 298: -1785Rec, 298: , 2015. V C 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
Abstract.In order to optimize the design and further determine the related parameters of the infrared stealth coating, this thesis derives the calculating formula of coating thickness d and surface emissivity İ based on optical thin film theory and conducts relevant designing targeted at multi-layer spraying existing in the stealth coating operations. The research results show that the proposed method extends the application of optical thin film theory in stealth coating designing and has theoretical significance for the future research of stealth coating.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
