Influence of Rail Line Gradient and Curve on Pantograph-Catenary Dynamic Performance by Huan ZOU, Ning ZHOU, Dong ZOU, Weihua ZHANG

“…The results showed that, when the slope change rate is 0, the influence of line on the dynamic response of the pantograph/catenary isn’t obvious;the positive slope change rate of the contact wire decreases the mechanical wear of pantograph/catenary, the stability of current is reduced, and it increases the electrical wear, but the negative slope change rate of the contact wire makes opposite; the smaller the radius of the vertical and horizontal curve, the worse the stability of the pantograph/catenary dynamic performance, which can not be ignored in the simulation, and it should be considered in the line design, construction and interval speed limit of horizontal curve and vertical curve setting.…”

CAR-T cells and TRUCKs that recognize an EBNA-3C-derived epitope presented on HLA-B*35 control Epstein-Barr virus-associated lymphoproliferation by Michael Hudecek, Anna Christina Dragon, Katharina Zimmermann, Thomas Nerreter, Deborah Sandfort, Julia Lahrberg, Stephan Klöß, Christina Kloth, Caroline Mangare, Agnes Bonifacius, Sabine Tischer-Zimmermann, Rainer Blasczyk, Britta Maecker-Kolhoff, Barbara Uchanska-Ziegler, Hinrich Abken, Axel Schambach, Britta Eiz-Vesper

“…IL-12, secreted by TRUCKs on target contact, was further tested for its chemoattractive and activating potential towards monocytes and natural killer (NK) cells.Results After co-cultivation with EBV target cells, TÜ165 CAR-Ts and TRUCKs showed an increased activation marker expression (CD137, CD25) and release of proinflammatory cytokines (interferon-γ and tumor necrosis factor-α). …”

SOLPS-ITER simulation of W limiter start-up on ITER by Y. Zhang, A.A. Pshenov, R.A. Pitts, X. Bonnin, M. Dubrov, Y. Gribov, A. Kirschner, C. Baumann, S. Brezinsek, J. Romazanov, Chaofeng Sang, Dezhen Wang

“…It is found that even moderate N content leads to saturation of P _LCFS , and hence f _rad , with respect to plasma density variation. The plasma density increase with seeding leads to redistribution of radiation between the W and N, preferentially cooling the edge in comparison with pure plasmas.…”

Structure, conservation and health implications of urban wild meat value chains: A case study of Lagos, Nigeria by Samuel N. Akpan, Pim van Hooft, Anise N. Happi, Ralph Buij, Frank van Langevelde, Elizabeth A.J. Cook, James M. Hassell, Dawn M. Zimmerman, Sherrill P. Masudi, Christian T. Happi, Lian F. Thomas

“…Conservation and public health interventions should be node-specific and gender-sensitive, targeting the dry seasons when actors' activities peak, and risks of human-wild meat contact are greater. There is need for the re-assessment of the conservation statuses of West Africa's wildlife species to reflect current realities foisted by wild meat trade.…”

Experiences of south Asian key workers in COVID-19 lockdowns in the United Kingdom by Rizwana Yousaf, Tipu Sultan

“…They were holding a lot of grievances and hurt inside due to long existing inequalities in the society, where many highly educated and skilled individuals were unable to get stable and secure employments, despite the health vulnerabilities, South Asian key workers worked through the Covid-19 lockdowns to overcome difficulties stem from precarious work. Although currently coping with increased debts, economic burdens and long COVID symptoms, comprehensive job security and entitlement to secure contracts with provisions to sick leaves and pays should be made available to address economic vulnerabilities of south Asian key workers.…”

Microvesicles produced by natural killer cells of the NK-92 cell line affect the phenotype and functions of endothelial cells of the EA.Hy926 cell line by K. L. Markova, V. A. Mikhailova, A. V. Korenevsky, Yu. P. Milyutina, V. V. Rodygina, E. P. Aleksandrova, A. S. Markov, O. A. Balabas, S. A. Selkov, D. I. Sokolov

“…The results revealed significant differences in the proteomic profiles of cells of the NK-92 cell line and their MV product. Contact between ECs and MVs derived from cells of the NK-92 cell line is accompanied by the following events: a) expression of granzyme B in ECs, b) activation of caspase-9 and caspase-3, with partial EC death, c) appearance of the panleukocyte marker CD45 on ECs, d) decrease in CD105 expression, and increase in CD34 and CD54 expression, and e) inhibition of EC migration. …”
