Myelin is a critical element of the central and peripheral nervous systems of all higher vertebrates. Any disturbance in the integrity of the myelin sheath interferes with the axon's ability to conduct action potentials. Thus, the study of myelin structure and biochemistry is critically important. Accurate and even staining of myelin is often difficult because of its lipid-rich nature and multi...

Introduction: TP53 alterations are associated with poor prognosis in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). In trials of intensive chemotherapy and autologous hematopoietic transplant (auto-HCT), patients (pts) mutations had an overall survival (OS) 1.8 years (yrs) compared to 12.7 yrs for unmutated. Optimal treatment achieve durable remission is unknown. We report cellular therapy outcomes a large cohort...

Introduction Auto-inflammatory syndromes are defined as conditions caused by an exaggerated innate immune system response, resulting in episodes of spontaneous inflammation affecting multiple organs. The prototypical auto-inflammatory disorders are associated with periodic febrile episodes. Auto-inflammatory syndromes now include polygenic diseases, such as Behcet’s syndrome and Still’s disease...

As many as 59% of the transcription factors in Escherichia coli regulate the transcription rate of their own genes. This suggests that auto-regulation has one or more important functions. Here, one possible function is studied. Often the transcription rate of an auto-regulator is also controlled by additional transcription factors. In these cases, the way the expression of the auto-regulator re...

We report a study that examines performance of pilots flying a simulated UAV in a highfidelity environment while using different types of perfect and imperfect automation aids. Fiftysix student pilots carried out simulated UAV missions containing a 3D view of terrain, a 2D topdown navigational map, system parameter gauges, and a message box. Trajectory and manipulation of a 3D camera was contro...

Tolerogenic strategies that specifically target diabetogenic immune cells in the absence of complications of immunosuppression are the desired treatment for the prevention or even reversal of Type 1 diabetes (T1D). Antigen (Ag)-based therapies must not only suppress disease-initiating diabetogenic T cells that are already activated, but, more importantly, prevent activation of naive auto-Ag-spe...
