RECENT ADVANCES ON PHAGOCYTIC B CELLS IN TELEOST FISH

Recent Advances on Phagocytic B Cells in Teleost Fish

The momentous discovery of phagocytic activity in teleost B cells has caused a dramatic paradigm shift from the belief that phagocytosis is performed mainly by professional phagocytes derived from common myeloid progenitor cells, such as macrophages/monocytes, neutrophils, and dendritic cells.Recent advances on phagocytic B cells and their microbic

Machine learning and its application in seismology

It is an inherently challenging scientific endeavor to understand and predict multi-scale, high-dimensional and nonlinear seismological phenomena.The increasing amount of observational big data breaks the linkage between data collection and interpretation, and increases the obscurity and uncertainty in data analysis.However, Bumpers there is also a

Efficacy of l-cysteine in increasing circulatory hydrogen sulfide, nitrite, and 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels in Zucker diabetic fatty rats and in vitro treatment of hydrogen sulfide and nitrite in upregulating vitamin D hydroxylase genes in monocytes

ABSTRACT: Dairy products, such as whey proteins, have been effectively used to enhance the effectiveness of vitamin D (VD) fortification and optimize circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)VD] levels.Whey protein is rich in l-cysteine (LC) which is the precursor of hydrogen sulfide (H2S), enhances glutathione (GSH) biosynthesis, and promotes positi

A nonlilear controller for ship autopilots

Conventional ship autopilots are designed based on a linear ship model using pole - placement technique or linear optimal theory.However, in operation, the ship kinematical parameters can go out the linear limits.In this paper, a nonlinear optimal control law based on LaserDisc Movie aggregated variables is presented.The criterion is chosen so that
