Developmental synapse pruning refines burgeoning connectomes. The basic mechanisms of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) production suggest they select inactive synapses for pruning: whether they do so is unknown. To...
A Novel Adaptive Genetic Algorithm for Dynamic Vehicle Routing Problem With Backhaul and Two-Dimensional Loading Constraints
In this paper, we consider an extension of the Dynamic Vehicle Routing Problem with Backhauls integrated with two-dimensional loading problem called DVRPB with 2D loading constraints (2L-DVRPB). In the VRPB, a vehicle can...

User preferences and water use savings owing to washbasin taps retrofit
During the last decades, achieving water efficiency in buildings has increasingly become an important challenge in the scope of sustainability. Water consumption is directly related to individual conduct. Despite the various...
The effect of increasing Women's autonomy on primary and repeated caesarean sections in Brazil.
Caesarean section (C-section) rates continue to rise globally. Yet, there is little consensus about the key determinants of rising C-section rates and the sources of variation in C-section rates across the world. While...
When Users Enjoy Using the System
This study utilized an extended model of the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT2) to explore the factors influencing the future adoption of accounting information systems (AIS) by Qatari students. A...

Changes in the quantity and quality of time use during the COVID-19 lockdowns in the UK
We investigated changes in the quantity and quality of time spent on various activities in response to the COVID-19-induced national lockdowns in the UK. We examined effects both in the first national lockdown (May 2020) and the...

Microbial stimulation fully differentiates monocytes to DC-SIGN/CD209 + dendritic cells for immune T cell areas
Dendritic cells (DCs), critical antigen-presenting cells for immune control, normally derive from bone marrow precursors distinct from monocytes. It is not yet established if the large reservoir of monocytes can develop into...

Jan 01, 0001
Mechanosensation is arguably the least understood of all senses. For most physiological processes, the first response to membrane stress is thought to be the opening or closing of mechanosensitive channels1, but the clonal...

Targeting Leishmania major Antigens to Dendritic Cells In Vivo Induces Protective Immunity
Efficient vaccination against the parasite Leishmania major, the causative agent of human cutaneous leishmaniasis, requires development of type 1 T-helper (Th1) CD4+ T cell immunity. Because of their unique capacity to initiate...

Healthcare workers have had the longest and most direct exposure to COVID-19 and consequently may suffer from poor mental health. We conducted one of the first repeated multi-country analysis of the mental wellbeing of medical...
Functional analysis of sense organ specification in the Tribolium castaneum larva reveals divergent mechanisms in insects.
Insects and other arthropods utilise external sensory structures for mechanosensory, olfactory, and gustatory reception. These sense organs have characteristic shapes related to their function, and in many cases are distributed...
