Immunotherapy has brought hope for cancer treatment, but its clinical success remains limited. Recently, overexpression of the transcription factors PU.1, IRF8 and BATF3 (PIB) was shown to induce direct reprogramming of tumor cells into antigen-presenting type 1 conventional dendritic cells (cDC1s), a rare subset of immune cells with pivotal role in anti-cancer immunity. This strategy might open a

A high turnover among principals may disrupt the continuity of leadership and negativelyaffect teachers and, by extension, the students. The aim was to investigate to what extent variouswork environment factors and signs of exhaustion were associated with reported intentions tochange workplace among principals working in compulsory schools. A web-based questionnaire wasadministered twice, in 2018

Here we report the results from exploratory analysis using a Bayesian network approach of data originally derived from a large North European study of type 2 diabetes (T2D) conducted by the IMI DIRECT consortium. 3029 individuals (795 with T2D and 2234 without) within 7 different study centres provided data comprising genotypes, proteins, metabolites, gene expression measurements and many differen

We report on the experimental investigation of potential high-performance cavity length stabilization using odd-indexed higher-order spatial modes. Schemes based on higher-order modes are particularly useful for micro-cavities that are used for enhanced fluorescence detection of a few emitters, which need to minimize photons leaking from a stabilization beam. We describe the design and constructio

The long-standing debate in the scientific community about whether ferroelectricity or ferroelasticity is the key property influencing the optoelectronic behavior of metal halide perovskites continues. In this study, we experimentally investigate the temperature dependence of photoluminescence from CsPb(Br1−xClx)3 nanowires and their heterojunctions. Our findings show an enhancement of the exciton

Cluster superlattice membranes constitute a novel 2D material, comprising a cluster superlattice sandwiched between a graphene support and an amorphous carbon embedding matrix. They offer a platform for investigating phenomena at the few atom to small cluster level with lateral averaging techniques. The amorphous carbon matrix provides mechanical and thermal stability to the cluster array, but alt

Objectives: 1. To validate catabolic meniscus explant models induced by cytokines: interleukin-6 ​+ ​interleukin-6 receptor ​+ ​tumor necrosis factor alpha (IL6/TNF) and oncostatin M ​+ ​tumor necrosis factor alpha (OSM/TNF). 2. To evaluate three potential anti-catabolic treatments: i) dexamethasone (DEX), ii) a Link-N peptide (Link-N) and iii) a peptide from chondroadherin (CKF). Design: Healthy

Gold shell-isolated nanoparticles (AuSHINs) are promising photothermal therapy (PTT) agents for cancer treatment due to their excellent photoconversion efficiency, biocompatibility, colloidal stability, and tunable properties, including size, shape, and surface functionalization. However, their therapeutic efficacy in in vitro assays is often limited by poor cellular uptake and lysosomal entrapmen

Synovial fluid (SF) may contain cleavage products of proteolytic activities. Our aim was to characterize the degradome through analysis of proteolytic activity and differential abundance of these components in a peptidomic analysis of SF in knee osteoarthritis (OA) patients versus controls (n = 23). SF samples from end-stage knee osteoarthritis patients undergoing total knee replacement surgery an

Monoclonal antibody solutions are set to become a major therapeutic tool in the years to come, capable of targeting various diseases by clever design of their antigen binding site. However, the formulation of stable solutions suitable for patient self-administration typically presents challenges, as a result of the increase in viscosity that often occurs at high concentrations. Here, we establish

Background AU Self-reported: Pleaseconfirmthatallheadinglevelsarerepresentedcorrectly adherence to the Mediterranean diet has been: modestly inversely associated with incidence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) in cohort studies. There is uncertainty about the validity and magnitude of this association due to subjective reporting of diet. The association has not been evaluated using an objectively measured

The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a master regulator of multiple pathways involved in breast cancer, and influences the estrogen receptor alpha (ER) and aromatase/CYP19A1. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the interplay between intratumoral levels of AhR and aromatase, patient characteristics (including AhR and CYP19A1 genotypes), clinicopathological features, and prognosis in breast

Emissions from biomass burning are highly variable and depend on combustion conditions as well as fuel properties. Simultaneous emissions from pyrolysis, smouldering, and combustion of the biomass material(s) burning leads to uncertainties in how these processes contribute to emissions of individual or groups of compounds as well as to total particle emissions. These uncertainties are difficult to

Using the excess energy of charge carriers excited above the band edge (hot carriers) could pave the way for optoelectronic devices, such as photovoltaics exceeding the Shockley-Queisser limit or ultrafast photodetectors. Semiconducting nanowires show promise as a platform for hot-carrier extraction. Proof of principle photovoltaic devices have already been realized based on InAs nanowires, using

Plasma biomarkers that reflect molecular states of the cardiovascular system are central for clinical decision making. Routinely used plasma biomarkers include troponins, natriuretic peptides, and lipoprotein particles, yet interrogate only a modest subset of pathways relevant to cardiovascular disease. Systematic profiling of a larger portion of circulating plasma proteins (the plasma proteome) w

Formation of hydrated magnesium carbonate (HMC) cement phases from the carbonation of brucite has been investigated using synchrotron radiation (SR) based scanning transmission X-ray microscopy (STXM) at Mg and O K-edges. HMC is formed from the reaction of brucite and sodium bicarbonate in water. The introduction of magnesium acetate as a ligand influences the characteristics of the resulting prec

BACKGROUND: Currently, there are few treatment-predictive and prognostic biomarkers in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Caveolin-1 (CAV1) is linked to chemoresistance and several important processes involved in tumor progression and metastasis, such as epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Herein, we report that high CAV1 gene expression is an independent factor of poor prognosis in TNBC.M

The elucidation of premixed ethylene/air combustion mechanisms holds theoretical significance for optimizing engines such as pulse detonation engines and rotating detonation engines. The flame front structure constitutes a vital factor of premixed ethylene/air combustion mechanisms, while the prevailing planar laser-induced fluorescence techniques currently in use fall short of directly visualizin
