TL;DR: This tutorial review provides a sampling of renowned fluorinated drugs and their mode of action with a discussion clarifying the role and impact of fluorine substitution on drug potency.
Abstract: It has become evident that fluorinated compounds have a remarkable record in medicinal chemistry and will play a continuing role in providing lead compounds for therapeutic applications. This tutorial review provides a sampling of renowned fluorinated drugs and their mode of action with a discussion clarifying the role and impact of fluorine substitution on drug potency.

TL;DR: The authors examines theories of relationships between resources and armed conflicts and the historical processes in which they are embedded, and stresses the vulnerability resulting from resource dependence, rather than conventional notions of scarcity or abundance, the risks of violence linked to the conflictuality of natural resource political economies, and the opportunities for armed insurgents resulting from the lootability of resources.

05 Mar 2008TL;DR: A loading unit for use with a surgical stapling apparatus is provided in this article, which includes a tool assembly having a cartridge assembly and an anvil assembly that are movable in relation to one another.
Abstract: A loading unit for use with a surgical stapling apparatus is provided and includes a tool assembly having a cartridge assembly and an anvil assembly that are movable in relation to one another; a surgical buttress releasably secured to a tissue contacting surface of the anvil assembly and/or the cartridge assembly, wherein each surgical buttress is secured to the anvil assembly and/or the cartridge assembly by at least one anchor; a release assembly associated with the anvil assembly and/or the cartridge assembly; and a drive assembly slidably translatable through the tool assembly between proximal and distal positions, wherein the drive assembly actuates the release assembly to thereby release the anchor to free the surgical buttress from the anvil assembly and/or the cartridge assembly.

TL;DR: The scaffold induced chondrocyte differentiation with respect to morphology and phenotype and represents a model cell culture substrate that may be useful for a variety of tissue engineering applications.
Abstract: Synthetic polymer scaffolds designed for cell transplantation were reproducibly made on a large scale and studied with respect to biocompatibility, structure and biodegradation rate. Polyglycolic acid (PGA) was extruded and oriented to form 13 μm diameter fibers with desired tenacity. Textile processing techniques were used to produce fibrous scaffolds with a porosity of 97% and sufficient structural integrity to maintain their dimensions when seeded with isolated cartilage cells (chondrocytes) and cultured in vitro at 37°C for 8 weeks. Cartilaginous tissue consisting of glycosaminoglycan and collagen was regenerated in the shape of the original PGA scaffold. The resulting cell-polymer constructs were the largest grown in vitro to date (1 cm diameter × 0.35 cm thick). Construct mass was accurately predicted by accounting for accumulation of tissue components and scaffold degradation. The scaffold induced chondrocyte differentiation with respect to morphology and phenotype and represents a model cell culture substrate that may be useful for a variety of tissue engineering applications.
