Tympanic membrane retraction over the surface and move out along the ear canal. Even if migration along the ear canal is blocked, new cells continue to grow so the surface of the eardrum becomes larger. This process of proliferation and migration can result in enlargement of a retraction pocket so that the eardrum expands and grows deeper into the ear. The majority of tympanic membrane retractions remain stable for long periods of time, or may even resolve spontaneously so that eardrum becomes normal again. Not all retractions are able to resolve even if middle ear pressure normalizes, as the retracted segment may become
Plasma membrane Ca2+ ATPase to involve the lymph nodes, and are more common among young women, which could help explain their worse prognosis compared with postmenopausal women. PMCAs were first discovered in the 1960s in the membranes of red blood cells. The presence of an ATPase was discovered in the membranes in 1961, and then in 1966 it was discovered that these ATPases pump Ca out of the cytosol. PMCA was first purified from red blood cell membranes in 1979. Plasma membrane Ca2+ ATPase The plasma membrane Ca ATPase (PMCA) is a transport protein in the plasma membrane of cells and functions to remove
