Among T cell subsets, gamma delta T cells uniquely display an Ag receptor-based tissue distribution, but what defines their preferential homing and homeostasis is unknown. To address this question, we studied the resources that control gamma delta T cell homeostasis in secondary lymphoid organs. We found that gamma delta and alpha beta T cells are controlled by partially overlapping resources, ...

We consider pro-isomorphic zeta functions of the groups $\Gamma (\mathcal {O}_K)$, where $\Gamma$ is a unipotent group scheme defined over $\mathbb {Z}$ and $K$ varies all number fields. Under certain conditions, we show that these have fine Euler decomposition with factors indexed by primes $\mathfrak {p}$ depending only on structure $\Gamma$, degree $[K:\mathbb {Q}]$, cardinality residue fiel...

The correlation between tubocurarine requirements and the electrophoretic serum protein pattern was investigated in 52 adult patients undergoing upper abdominal surgery under nitrous oxide and oxygen anaesthesia. There was a positive correlation between the tubocurarine requirements (mg/kg) and the serum level of gamma globulin; r = +0.604, which is highly significant (P<0.001). This correlatio...

Sever thermal injury is often complicated by infection. Moreover, the injury itself render the early detection of infection more difficult. Rapid early detection of infection would thus aid in the treatment of severely burned patients. PCA filtrates of whole blood from burned-infected rats contain three substances that appear to be early indicators of infection in the thermally injured animal. ...

Background: During radiation therapy, stromal cells surrounding the tumor (e.g mesenchymal stem cells) may affect the treatment outcomes. We aimed to investigate the effects of gamma radiation on the mRNA expression of cytokines, DNA damage and population doubling time (PDT) of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs). Material and methods: ASCs were enzymatically extracted from breast tis...
