Ungroundedness in Tarskian LanguagesAbstractSeveral writers have assumed that when in "Outline of a Theory of Truth" I wrote that "the orthodox approach" – that is, Tarski's account of the truth definition – admits descending chains, I was relying on a simple compactness theorem argument, and that non-standard models must result. However, I was actually relying on a paper on 'pseudo-well-orderings' by Harrison (Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, 131, 527–543 1968). The descending...
Histoarchitecture restoration of cerebellar sub-layers as a response to estradiol treatment following Kainic acid-induced spinal cord injuryAbstractOne of the major impacts of spinal cord injury (SCI) is the cerebellar neurological malfunction and deformation of its sub-layers. This could be due to the enormous innervation of the spinocerebellar tract from the posterior gray horn in the spinal cord to the ipsilateral cerebellum. Although the neuroprotective role of estradiol in spinal cord (SC) injuries,...

Some Aspects of Carcinogenesis Associated with Genetic and Epigenetic FactorsAbstract—Various authors have shown that the numerous instances of spontaneous DNA damage (DNA breaks, change in bases) that occur daily in a cell as a result of the metabolism of the human body are the basis of mutational selection.

HSP has various types of inheritance and clinical characteristics. The development of molecular genetics and the...
Astrocytes as Mediators of Integration Processes in the BrainAbstract—The role of astroglial cells is much more complicated than the notion of an "elastic framework," which provides structural and metabolic support for brain structures.

In vitro and in situ studies revealed a large spectrum of molecules secreted by neuroglial cells. Analysis of...
