The impact of climate change on the availability water affects all types land use and sectors. This complexity calls for integrated resources management negotiations between sectors most important, cost-effective, productive allocation where it is a limited resource. reflection paper shows examples adaptation efforts to scarcity at scale gains in productivity can be derived from inter-sectoral ...

1. introduction one of the genres of lyrical literature that has attracted the attention of many poets. it is in fact, a poem often written in couplet-poem format in motaghareb meter which the poet addresses the tapster and expresses his ideas about issues such as the instability of the world and time, reprimanding sanctimonious ascetics, hypocrisy of the people, inviting to debauchery and expr...

High-throughput functional and genomic screening techniques provide systematic means for phenotypic discovery. Using synthetic lethality (SL) as a paradigm anticancer drug target discovery, we describe how these technologies may offer new possibilities to identify therapeutically relevant selective SL interactions by addressing some of the challenges that have made robust discovery candidates d...

Tumour development driven by inflammation is now an established phenomenon but the role that complement plays remains uncertain. Recent evidence has suggested that various components of the complement (C) cascade may influence tumour development in disparate ways; however, little attention has been paid to that of the membrane attack complex (MAC). This is despite abundant evidence documenting ...

26 Interferon (IFN)-β is a major component of innate immunity in mammals, but information on 27 the in vivo source of this cytokine after pathogen infection is still scarce. To identify the cell 28 types responsible for IFN-β production during viral encephalitis, we used reporter mice that 29 express firefly luciferase under control of the IFN-β promoter and stained organ sections with 30 lucif...

Single-Ig-interleukin-1 related receptor (SIGIRR) is a member of the interleukin (IL)1/Toll-like receptor (TLR) family. It negatively regulates inflammation, rendering SIGIRR /mice more susceptible to inflammatory challenge. This susceptibility extends to the brain, where increased responsiveness to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) has been observed in SIGIRRdeficient mice. While this is likely due to ...
