PRODUCTION OF CXC AND CC CHEMOKINES BY HUMAN ANTIGEN-PRESENTING CELLS IN RESPONSE TO LASSA VIRUS OR CLOSELY RELATED IMMUNOGENIC VIRUSES, AND IN CYNOMOLGUS MONKEYS WITH LASSA FEVER.

The pathogenesis of Lassa fever (LF), a hemorrhagic fever endemic to West Africa, remains unclear.We previously compared Lassa virus (LASV) with its genetically close, but nonpathogenic homolog Mopeia virus (MOPV) and demonstrated that the strong activation of antigen-presenting cells Dough Boxes (APC), including type I IFN production, observed in

Few research studies have addressed the topic of accessibility among people with different disabilities who live in Arab Wooden Blocks society in general, and Bedouin society in particular.The present research study is a pilot study, the first of its kind, and addresses the topic of accessibility among those with disabilities in Bedouin society in

Venous air embolism (VAE) is the air bubble accumulation in the right side of the heart, or in the pulmonary region.Pre-cordial Doppler allows a real-time monitoring of heart sound and is used to detect VAE episodes through changes in cardiac sound.Sometimes these changes are not detected by the operator, which reveals the importance of finding oth

Abstract We propose the information-theoretic quantity of geometric quantum discord (GQD) as an indicator Neutral Drain Kit of the factorization properties of a given quantum system.In particular, we show how non-vanishing discord implies that the corresponding partition function does not factorize, both for generic pure states and the thermofield

Abstract Biomarkers associated with the progression from gastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM) to gastric adenocarcinoma (GA), i.e., GA-related GIM, could provide valuable insights into identifying patients with increased risk for GA.The aim of this study was to utilize multi-bioinformatics to reveal potential biomarkers for the GA-related GIM and pr
