The ulnar nerve is formed from the medial cord nerve roots of C7-T1. Originating in the brachial plexus‚ it descends down the arm before passing around the medial epicondyle of the elbow (the so-called funny bone) and then passes between the heads of flexor carpi ulnaris (FCU). It gives some cutaneous branches just before the wrist whilst the motor branches pass around the hook of hamate. Its motor contribution is to all small muscles of the hand except the lateral two lumbricals as well as FCU

Introduction Fundamentally cancer occurs from accumulated mutations in the genes which control cell proliferation and differentiation (Croce‚ 2008). Normal cells slowly and systemically replace dead ones via cell cycle consisting of growing‚ dividing‚ and dying phases‚ whereas cancer cells keep reproducing‚ and do not surrender to signals from body control (Cancer Research UK‚ 2010). Cancerous cells could invade nearby tissues‚ and even spread to other organs through lymph nodes or blood vessels

happens when a cell transforms and expresses a gene it once did not have‚ which is basically the gene that makes it glow fluorescent green. This particular glowing gene comes from the jellyfish Aequorea victoria. This glowing gene is taken from the jellyfish and the E. coli takes in the GFP protein from the jellyfish DNA‚ transforms to accept the glowing gene‚ and will then provide its own fluorescent green glow under UV light when it begins to express the gene [1]. People may wonder why this type of
