P REFORMED antibodies (Abs) in the blood circulation of recipients before transplantation have been identified as the cause of hyperacute rejection (HAR) of the grafts. 1.2 However, liver allografts are relatively resistant to preformed Abs, and because of conflicting results in clinical practice with sensitized recipients, 3 the practical significance of lymphocytotoxic antibodies (LAbs) in an...

We present theoretical and experimental evidence that nonionizing prepulses with intensities as low as 10(8)-10(9) W/cm(2) can substantially alter high intensity laser-solid interactions. We show that prepulse-heating and vaporization of the target can lead to a preformed plasma once the vapor is ionized by the rising edge of the high-intensity pulse. Our results indicate that peak prepulse int...

background: mediodorsal (md) thalamic nucleus, which is considered to take place between extra pyramidal and limbic feedback circuit, receives projective fibers from ventrolateral neurons of reticular part of substantia nigra (snr). in order to better understand the influence and chemical reaction of these fibers upon md nucleus, the morphology and synaptology of them were examined in the prese...

introduction: stimulation of peptidergic fibers activates microglia in the dorsal horn. microglia activation causes fractalkine (fkn) release, a neuron-glia signal, which enhances pain. the transient vanilloid receptor 1 (trpv1) mediates the release of neuropeptides, which can subsequently activate glia. trpv1 and trpv2 are generally expressed on c and aδ fibers, respectively. expression of bot...

The preformed messenger ribonucleic acid in Botryodiplodia theobromae spores directs the synthesis of several relatively stable polypeptides

January 31, 2017 Type Package Title Empirical Bayesian approach to mutational signature discovery Version 1.0.1 Author Rafael Rosales, Rodrigo Drummond, Renan Valieris, Israel Tojal da Silva Maintainer Renan Valieris Description The signeR package provides an empirical Bayesian approach to mutational signature discovery. It is designed to analyze single nu...

We investigate the hydrodynamic response of plasma gradients during the interaction with ultraintense energetic laser pulses, using kinetic particle simulations. Energetic laser pulses are capable of compressing preformed plasma gradients over short times while accelerating low-density plasma backwards. As light is absorbed on a steepened interface, hot-electron temperature and coupling efficie...
