Immunity to Chlamydia trachomatis and Host-Pathogen Interactions During Infection
(2014-02-25)Infections with the bacterial pathogen Chlamydia trachomatis are a critical public health problem. Chlamydia remains the number one cause of preventable blindness worldwide and the leading cause of bacterial sexually ... -
Immuno-Analysis and FACS Sorting of Adult Muscle Fiber-Associated Stem/Precursor Cells
(Springer Science + Business Media, 2010)We describe the immunostaining methods we commonly use to detect the more robust cell markers identifying the various cell populations obtained by the enzymatic and or mechanical dissociation of muscle satellite cells: ... -
Immunochemical localization of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase in the symbiont-containing gills of Solemya velum (Bivalvia: Mollusca)
(Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1988)The distribution of the Calvin cycle enzyme ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase (RbuP2Case; EC 4.1.1.39) was examined by using two immunological methods in tissues of Solemya velum, an Atlantic coast bivalve containing ... -
Immunomodulatory Pathways and Metabolism
(2013-03-14)Energy metabolism plays a vital role in normal physiology, adaptive responses and host defense mechanisms. Research throughout the last decade has shown evidence that immune pathways communicate with metabolic pathways to ... -
Immunoregulatory Roles of CD48 in Autoimmunity and Tolerance
(2015-05-04)CD48 is an adhesion and costimulatory molecule expressed constitutively on nearly all hematopoietic cells. Via interactions with its ligand CD2, it contributes to synapse organization between T cells and APCs, and can ... -
Immunotherapy in the Precision Medicine Era: Melanoma and Beyond
(Public Library of Science, 2016)In a Perspective, Mack Su and David Fisher discuss the development of immunotherapies for treatment of melanoma and other cancer types. -
Impact Crater Formation in Icy Layered Terrains on Mars
(Meteoritical Society, 2008)We present numerical simulations of crater formation under Martian conditions with a single near-surface icy layer to investigate changes in crater morphology between glacial and interglacial periods. The ice fraction, ... -
Impact of 2000–2050 Climate Change on Fine Particulate Matter (PM2.5) Air Quality Inferred from a Multi-Model Analysis of Meteorological Modes
(European Geosciences Union, 2012)Studies of the effect of climate change on fine particulate matter (PM2.5) air quality using general circulation models (GCMs) show inconsistent results including in the sign of the effect. This reflects uncertainty in the ... -
Impact of Asian emissions on observations at Trinidad Head, California, during ITCT 2K2
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2004)Field measurements of a wide suite of trace gases and aerosols were carried out during April and May 2002, along with extensive chemical transport modeling, as part of the NOAA Intercontinental Transport and Chemical ... -
The Impact of Cellular Networks on Disease Comorbidity
(Nature Publishing Group, 2009)The impact of disease-causing defects is often not limited to the products of a mutated gene but, thanks to interactions between the molecular components, may also affect other cellular functions, resulting in potential ... -
The Impact of China's Market Reforms on the Health of Chinese Citizens: Examining Two Puzzles
(National University of Singapore, East Asian Institute, 2010)China's post-1978 market reforms were accompanied by a drastic decline in the coverage of the Chinese population by medical insurance as well as by sharp increases in charges for medical treatments, tests, and prescriptions. ... -
Impact of Climate Change on Fine Particulate Matter \((PM_{2.5})\) Air Quality
(2013-03-19)This dissertation investigates the impact of 2000-2050 climate change on fine particulate matter \((PM_{2.5})\) air quality. We first applied a multiple linear regression model to study the correlations of total \(PM_{2.5}\) ... -
The Impact of Competition on Prices with Numerous Firms
(2015)Many existing homogeneous-good markets exhibit large mark-ups, including some markets with many competing firms. We analyze simple monopolistic-competition models and show that idiosyncratic demand shocks driven by standard ... -
The Impact of Employer Matching on Savings Plan Participation under Automatic Enrollment
(University of Chicago Press, 2010)Existing research has documented the large impact that automatic enrollment has on savings plan participation. All the companies examined in these studies, however, have combined automatic enrollment with an employer match. ... -
Impact of Environmental Chemical Mixtures on Maternal and Child Mental Health
(2022-03-17)Background: Internalizing disorders, such as anxiety and depression, are of public health concern. The prevalence of these psychiatric illnesses has been increasing in recent decades, with vulnerable groups including ... -
The Impact of Exports on Innovation: Theory and Evidence
(2018)This paper investigates the effect of export shocks on innovation. On the one hand a positive shock increases market size and therefore innovation incentives for all firms. On the other hand it increases competition as ... -
Impact of Extended-Duration Shifts on Medical Errors, Adverse Events, and Attentional Failures
(Public Library of Science, 2006)Background: A recent randomized controlled trial in critical-care units revealed that the elimination of extended-duration work shifts (≥24 h) reduces the rates of significant medical errors and polysomnographically recorded ... -
The Impact of Goods and Capital Market Integration on European Monetary Politics
(SAGE Publications, 1996)Members of the European Union (EU) have long attempted to unify their monetary policies, whether by fixing exchange rates or moving toward a single currency. The success of these attempts has varied over time, and among ... -
The Impact of High School Life Science Teachers’ Subject Matter Knowledge and Knowledge of Student Misconceptions on Students’ Learning
(American Society for Cell Biology (ASCB), 2020-03)One of the foundational assumptions in education is that greater teacher knowledge contributes to greater gains in student knowledge, but empirical evidence in support of this assumption is scarce. Using a U.S. sample of ... -
The Impact of Hittite and Tocharian: Rethinking Indo-European in the 20th Century and Beyond
(De Gruyter, 2017-01-25)The ink was scarcely dry on the last volume of Brugmann’s Grundriß (1916, 2nd ed., Vol. 2, pt. 3), so to speak, when an unexpected discovery in a peripheral area of Assyriology portended the end of the scholarly consensus ...
