The interaction of trailing vortices of an upstream wing with rigid and flexible downstream wings has been investigated experimentally in a wind tunnel, using particle image velocimetry, hot-wire, force and deformation...

Osmanthus fragrans (scientific name: Osmanthus fragrans (Thunb.) Lour.) is a species of the Osmanthus genus in the family Oleaceae, and it has a long history of cultivation in China. O. fragrans is edible and is well known for...
BACKGROUND: We recently identified the human leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptor B2 (LILRB2) and its mouse ortholog-paired Ig-like receptor (PirB) as receptors for several angiopoietin-like proteins (Angptls). We also...
The production cross-section of a top quark in association with a $W$ boson
is measured using proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 8$ TeV. The dataset
corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 20.2 fb$^{-1}$, and was...
AbstractC-type shocks are believed to be ubiquitous in turbulent molecular clouds thanks to ambipolar diffusion. We investigate whether the drag instability in 1D isothermal...
4‐Hydroxylphenylpyruvatedioxygenase (HPPD) is a non‐haem iron(II)‐dependent oxygenase that catalyzes the conversion of 4‐hydroxylphenylpyruvate (HPP) to homogentisate (HG). In the active site, a strictly conserved 2‐His‐1‐Glu...
The distribution of immune complexes has been studied in mouse spleen stimulated to contain many germinal centers (GC?s). Horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-anti-HRP complexes were used as an appropriately precise and sensitive model....
Whereas contemporary neuroimaging evidence supports a role for dysfunctioning prefrontal-amygdaloid-striatal circuitry in affective disorders, precise psychological functions of this interaction have still to be revealed, thus...
Cancers require telomere maintenance mechanisms for unlimited replicative potential. They achieve this through TERT activation or alternative telomere lengthening associated with ATRX or DAXX loss. Here, as part of the ICGC/TCGA...

Naive pluripotency can be maintained in medium with two inhibitors plus leukemia inhibitory factor (2i/LIF) supplementation, which primarily affects canonical WNT, FGF/ERK, and JAK/STAT3 signaling. However, whether one of these...
BACKGROUND: The optimal procedure for combining radiotherapy (RT) with tamoxifen treatment is controversial as RT may alter the pharmacokinetics and biotransformation of tamoxifen. The present study investigated this potential...
BACKGROUND: Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a relatively common and disabling psychiatric disorder whose pathophysiology is incompletely understood. In this study, we utilized magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) in an...
What is a habit? One problem with the concept of habit has been that virtually everyone has their own ideas of what is meant by such a term. Whilst not eschewing folk psychology, it is useful to re-examine dictionary definitions...
Reduced fetal nutrition and rapid postnatal growth accelerates the aging phenotype in many organ systems; however, effects on the immune system are unclear. We addressed this by studying the thymus from a rat model of...
