Evaluation Model for Indoor Comprehensive Environmental Comfort Based on the Utility Function Method by Xiaona Fan, Yiyun Zhu

“…Furthermore, quantitative relationships between environmental comfort and individual parameters were established, and the weights of individual environmental factors were determined using the analytic hierarchy process and the entropy weight method, based on the perspective of categorizing functional rooms and usage time periods. Finally, a quantitative evaluation model for indoor comprehensive environmental comfort was proposed that considered the one-vote veto characteristics and differentiated demands.…”

Mast Cell Subsets and Their Functional Modulation by the Acanthocheilonema viteae Product ES-62 by Dimity H. Ball, Hwee Kee Tay, Kara S. Bell, Michelle L. Coates, Lamyaa Al-Riyami, Justyna Rzepecka, William Harnett, Margaret M. Harnett

“…However, in addition to their pathogenic roles in allergic and autoimmune diseases, mast cells are important in fighting infection, wound healing, and resolving inflammation, reflecting that mast cells exhibit a phenotypic and functional plasticity. We have therefore characterised the differential functional responses to antigen (via FcεRI) and LPS and their modulation by ES-62 of the mature peritoneal-derived mast cells (PDMC; serosal) and those of the connective tissue-like mast cells (CTMC) and the mucosal-like mast cells derived from bone marrow progenitors (BMMC) as a first step to produce disease tissue-targeted therapeutics based on ES-62 action. …”
