Although approved for over a decade, the clinical utility of proteasome inhibitors (PIs) remains largely restricted to the treatment of patients with multiple myeloma (MM) and mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). This has fueled interest in understanding mechanisms of resistance to their antineoplastic actions, leading to the development of new and improved PIs (e.g., carfilzomib, ixazomib, marizomib) a...

Myopic observers may not benefit to the same extent as emmetropes from adaptive optics (AO) correction in a visual acuity (VA) task. To investigate this, we measured AO-corrected VA in 10 low myopes and 9 emmetropes. Subjects were grouped by refractive error. Mean spherical equivalent refractive error was -2.73 D (SEM = 0.35) for the myopes and 0.04 D (SEM = 0.1) for the emmetropes. All subject...

Endotoxin increases ventilation-to-perfusion ratio (VA/Q) heterogeneity in the lung, but the precise changes in alveolar ventilation (VA) and perfusion that lead to VA/Q heterogeneity are unknown. The purpose of this study was to determine how endotoxin affects the distributions of ventilation and perfusion and the impact of these changes on VA/Q heterogeneity. Seven anesthetized, mechanically ...

SUMMARYDuring excavations undertaken for the Dover Western Dock Revival Scheme, Kent, UK, Archaeology South-East (ASE; UCL Institute of Archaeology) encountered substantial remains associated with development port Dover. Despite natural limitations, especially in form silting from River Dour and longshore drift, has historically been a strategic location which to maintain port. The presented he...
