Agnogene Deletion in a Novel Pathogenic JC Virus Isolate Impairs VP1 Expression and Virion Production
(Public Library of Science, 2013)Infection of glial cells by the human polyomavirus JC (JCV) causes progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). JCV Encephalopathy (JCVE) is a newly identified disease characterized by JCV infection of cortical pyramidal ... -
The Agrarian Origins of Mau Mau: A Structural Account

Agrin and Synaptic Laminin Are Required to Maintain Adult Neuromuscular Junctions
(Public Library of Science, 2012)As synapses form and mature the synaptic partners produce organizing molecules that regulate each other’s differentiation and ensure precise apposition of pre- and post-synaptic specializations. At the skeletal neuromuscular ... -

Aharonov-Bohm Effect in Graphene-Based Fabry-Pérot Quantum Hall Interferometers
(Springer Nature, 2021-02-25)Interferometers probe the wave-nature and exchange statistics of indistinguishable particles, for example electrons in the chiral one-dimensional edge channels of the quantum Hall effect (QHE). Quantum point contacts can ... -
Ahead of the Game: Middle and Upper Palaeolithic Hunting Behaviors in the Southern Caucasus
(University of Chicago Press, 2006)Over the past several decades a variety of models have been proposed to explain perceived behavioral and cognitive differences between Neanderthals and modern humans. A key element in many of these models and one often ... -
AI Support of Teamwork for Coordinated Care of Children with Complex Conditions
(AAAI Press, 2014)Children with complex health conditions require care from a large, diverse set of caregivers that includes parents and community support organizations as well as multiple types of medical professionals. Coordination of ... -

The Air Cure Town: Commodifying Mountain Air in Alpine Central Europe
(Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2012)Does air have value? In the first volume of Capital, Marx suggested it did not: “A thing can be a use-value, without having value,” he explained. “This is the case whenever its utility to man is not due to labour. Such are ... -
Air mass factor formulation for spectroscopic measurements from satellites: Application to formaldehyde retrievals from the Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2001)We present a new formulation for the air mass factor (AMF) to convert slant column measurements of optically thin atmospheric species from space into total vertical columns. Because of atmospheric scattering, the AMF depends ... -
An air-liquid contactor for large-scale capture of CO2 from air
(The Royal Society, 2012)We present a conceptually simple method for optimizing the design of a gas–liquid contactor for capture of carbon dioxide from ambient air, or ‘air capture’. We apply the method to a slab geometry contactor that uses ... -
Air-Sea Exchange in the Global Mercury Cycle
(American Geophysical Union, 2007)We present results from a new global atmospheric mercury model coupled with a mixed layer slab ocean. The ocean model describes the interactions of the mixed layer with the atmosphere and deep ocean, as well as conversion ... -
Air-snow exchange of HNO3 and NOy at Summit, Greenland
(Wiley-Blackwell, 1998)Ice core records of NO3− deposition to polar glaciers could provide unrivaled information on past photochemical status and N cycling dynamics of the troposphere, if the ice core records could be inverted to yield concentrations ... -
Airborne measurements of organosulfates over the continental U.S.
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd, 2015)Organosulfates are important secondary organic aerosol (SOA) components and good tracers for aerosol heterogeneous reactions. However, the knowledge of their spatial distribution, formation conditions, and environmental ... -
Akkermansia muciniphila phospholipid induces homeostatic immune responses
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2022-07-27)Multiple studies have established associations between human gut bacteria and host physiology, but determining the molecular mechanisms underlying these associations has been challenging1–3. Akkermansia muciniphila has ... -

Alcohol and Self-Evaluation: Is a Social Cognition Approach Beneficial?
(Guilford Publications, 1989)Based on psychosocial models, a view of alcohol use and addiction as resulting from a habitual maladaptive means of coping with stress has recently emerged. In this article, we present some critical experiments documenting ... -
Alcohol consumption, endogenous estrogen and mammographic density among premenopausal women
(BioMed Central, 2015)Introduction: Alcohol consumption may promote aromatization of androgens to estrogens, which may partly explain the observations linking alcohol consumption to higher breast cancer risk. Whether alcohol consumption is ...
