Her photograms index these strange vessels as otherworldly shapes, warped by filters and rendered nearly
ectoplasmic. Positioned on tabletops, where they are clustered like votive offerings in intricate display vignettes, they tempt the seismic gods.
During neuronal development thin dendritic
ectoplasmic pseudopods or filopodia are programmed to shield actually stable dendritic spines [36] and are determinant in the establishment of neural circuits in time [37].
I'm sure even the spirits and ghosts she said she could see in the house would've been pushing the planchette to spell MOVE were there a Ouija board set up to receive their
ectoplasmic email.
It's up to them to save the city from this
ectoplasmic infestation.
When he's having nice dreams, Mark and Jessie's home is filled with Disney-looking butterflies and realistic visions of their son Sean; when Cody's gripped by dark thoughts, however, his nightmares are personified in a skeletal figure called 'Canker Man', who wraps his victims in a kind of

Ultimately, it proves to be one of those horror movies carefully aligned to absolve any potential audience guilt by ensuring that its victims deserve their punishment; before each teenager meets their
ectoplasmic demise, their moral failings are laid out in no uncertain terms.

ectoplasmic specialization in the rat testis through its actin nucleation and bundling activity," Endocrinology 156(8): 2969-2983.
The egg white that slid down his leg like a damning
ectoplasmic placenta, Stanford writes, "stayed with me, // Mark of the beast, birth, and trade." Elsewhere, in "Crossing the Fork on a One-Lane Bridge with No Lights," the manuscript's titular beast makes another appearance ("The panther is down from the cliffs / Crazy drunk on the young blood in the valley."), reflecting Grendel's descent from his cave to conduct murderous rampages on the Danes in Hrothgar's mead hall.

Identification and characterization of espin, an actin-binding protein localized to the F-actin-rich junctional plaques of Sertoli cell
ectoplasmic specializations.
Bacon, he felt sure, had been unaware that he had--accidentally or unconsciously--painted this
ectoplasmic being.
RAB13 participates in
ectoplasmic specialization dynamics in the rat testis.
