Russell bodies are inclusion bodies usually found in atypical plasma cells that become known as Mott cells. [1] Russell bodies are eosinophilic , homogeneous immunoglobulin (Ig)-containing inclusions usually found in cells undergoing excessive synthesis of Ig; the Russell body is characteristic of the distended endoplasmic reticulum .
A Mott transition is a metal-insulator transition in condensed matter. Due to electric field screening the potential energy becomes much more sharply (exponentially) peaked around the equilibrium position of the atom and electrons become localized and can no longer conduct a current.
Reactive lymphocyte surrounded by red blood cells. In immunology, reactive lymphocytes, variant lymphocytes, atypical lymphocytes, Downey cells or Türk cells are cytotoxic (CD8 +) lymphocytes that become large as a result of antigen stimulation. Typically, they can be more than 30 μm in diameter with varying size and shape.
Bizarre cells, which are multinucleated; Mott cells, containing multiple clustered cytoplasmic droplets or other inclusions (sometimes confused with Auer rods, commonly seen in myeloid blasts) Flame cells, having a fiery red cytoplasm [71] [72] Historically, the CD138 has been used to isolate myeloma cells for diagnostic purposes.
Unlike in Mott insulators, where the insulating properties arise from electrons hopping between unit cells, the electrons in charge-transfer insulators move between atoms within the unit cell. In the Mott–Hubbard case, it's easier for electrons to transfer between two adjacent metal sites (on-site Coulomb interaction U); here we have an ...
Gaseous signaling molecules are gaseous molecules that are either synthesized internally (endogenously) in the organism, tissue or cell or are received by the organism, tissue or cell from outside (say, from the atmosphere or hydrosphere, as in the case of oxygen) and that are used to transmit chemical signals which induce certain physiological or biochemical changes in the organism, tissue or ...
Halobacterial Gas Vesicles. (A) Halobacterium salinarum colonies on a solid medium. Pink, opaque colonies from gas vesicle-containing cells; a red, transparent colony from gas vesicle-deficient cells. (B) Cryo-transmission electron micrograph of cells in 3 M NaCl plus 81 mM MgSO 4. The image has the low signal-to-noise ratio due to the high ...
An exciton is a bound state of an electron and an electron hole which are attracted to each other by the electrostatic Coulomb force resulting from their opposite charges. It is an electrically neutral quasiparticle regarded as an elementary excitation primarily in condensed matter, such as insulators, semiconductors, some metals, and in some liquids.
