TIM-3 plays a more important role than PD-1 in the functional impairments of cytotoxic T cells of malignant Schwannomas by Zhao Li, Xiaobing Liu, Rongbin Guo, Pengfei Wang

“…TIM-3 expression alone was associated with lower proliferation and less perforin and granzyme B secretion, whereas PD-1 expression alone was not associated with functional impairments, suggesting that TIM-3 expression was a better marker of exhausted CD8 + T cells. …”

Joint approximation of analytic functions by the shifts of Hurwitz zeta-functions in short intervals by Laurinčikas Antanas, Šiaučiūnas Darius

“…In the article, we obtain that, for algebraically independent over Q{\mathbb{Q}} parameters α1,…,αr{\alpha }_{1},\ldots ,{\alpha }_{r}, there are infinitely many shifts (ζ(s+iτ,α1),…,ζ(s+iτ,αr))\left(\zeta \left(s+i\tau ,{\alpha }_{1}),\ldots ,\zeta \left(s+i\tau ,{\alpha }_{r})) of Hurwitz zeta-functions with τ∈[T,T+H]\tau \in \left[T,T+H], T27⁄82⩽H⩽T1⁄2{T}^{27/82}\leqslant H\leqslant {T}^{1/2}, that approximate any rr-tuple of analytic functions on the strip {s∈C:1⁄2<σ<1}\left\{s\in {\mathbb{C}}:1/2\lt \sigma \lt 1\right\}. …”
