Class-Specific Incidence of All-Cause Dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease: A Latent Class Approach
Identifying preclinical Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is an important step toward developing approaches to early treatment and dementia prevention. We applied latent class analysis (LCA) to 10 baseline neuropsychological assessments for 1,345 participants ...

In vitro characterization of rat bone marrow-derived dendritic cells and their precursors [PDF]
Although the rat is commonly used for basic immunology and transplantation research, phenotypic and functional characterization of rat dendritic cells (DCs) lags behind similar studies in the human and mouse. Therefore, these features were examined using

DY determinants, possibly associated with novel class II molecules, stimulate autoreactive CD4+ T cells with suppressive activity [PDF]
A set of T cell clones (TCC) isolated from HLA-DR-, Dw-, DQ-matched allogeneic MLCs was found to proliferate autonomously when stimulated with cells carrying a wide range of class I or II specificities.

Childhood cancer incidence and survival in Japan and England: A population‐based study (1993‐2010)
For many of childhood cancers, 5‐year survival improved in Japan and England. The improvement in survival in chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) was particularly dramatic in both countries. The present study aimed to compare cancer incidence and trends in survival for children diagnosed in Japan and England, using population‐based cancer registry data. The
