Immunity to Parasitic Worms

Helminth infection provides a unique challenge to the host immune system. Not only are helminths complex multicellular organisms, but they have intricate life cycles with multiple developmental stages, several of which may coexist in the infected host. In most cases, the host response to helminth infection is characterized by eosinophilia, increased serum immunoglobulin (Ig) E and IgG4, and mas...

Immunity to protozoa and worms

Bifurcation to worms in electroconvection.

The primary bifurcation to electroconvection of the liquid crystal 4-ethyl-2-fluoro-4'-[2-(trans-4-pentylcyclohexyl)ethyl]-biphenyl (I52) with planar alignment leads to localized structures of convection rolls known as "worms" when the conductivity of the fluid is relatively small. Worms coexist with the conduction state. They have a unique small width in the direction perpendicular to the dire...

Worms

Sir.?I slit. 11 deem it a great, favour if yon will kindly allow me a little space in your well-known journal for the following few lines with a view to draw the attention of your numerous readers to the subject. During the last two years of a practice attending over 20 years I have come across a series of cases suffering from a peculiar kind of worm which fly within a few seconds of their expu...

Brownian penalisations related to excursion lengths, VII

Limiting laws, as t →∞, for Brownian motion penalised by the longest length of excursions up to t , or up to the last zero before t , or again, up to the first zero after t , are shown to exist, and are characterized. Résumé. Il est prouvé que les lois limites, lorsque t → ∞, du mouvement brownien pénalisé par la plus grande longueur des excursions jusqu’en t , ou bien jusqu’au dernier zéro ava...
