Updatable Closed‐Form Evaluation of Arbitrarily Complex Multiport Network Connections
The inverse design of electrically large wave devices often uses reduced‐order multiport models with discrete optimization, requiring many evaluations of complex interconnections between subsystems that differ only in a few blocks. This paper introduces a closed‐form framework enabling efficient Woodbury low‐rank updates of related, previous ...

Novel Haemodynamic effects of recombinant C5a and C5a des Arg in rats and mice
Sepsis is defined as the body's response to an infection, characterised by an overwhelming release of inflammatory mediators, haemodynamic changes and cardiac dysfunction.

HSV neutralization by the microbicidal candidate C5A [PDF]
Genital herpes is a major risk factor in acquiring human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) infection and is caused by both Herpes Simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and HSV-2.

Objective Low copy number (CN) of complement C4 isoforms and high CN of retroviral HERV‐K elements are known risk factors for many immune‐mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs), often showing sex‐biased effects. Here, we assessed whether CN variation within the C4 gene contributes to giant cell arteritis (GCA) and IgA vasculitis (IgAV), two complex ...

Complement Activation Linked to Type II Interferon Signaling in Still Disease
Objective Still disease (SD) is an autoinflammatory syndrome characterized by innate immune dysregulation. Although complement can drive inflammation, its involvement in SD remains to be defined. Thus, we aimed to assess complement activation in SD. Methods Complement was assessed using transcriptomic, proteomic, and in vitro approaches. RNA sequencing

Weak response of porcine C5a receptor towards human C5a in miniature pig endothelial cells and PMNs
BACKGROUND: The anaphylatoxin C5a is a potent inflammatory molecule generated during complement activation. Although some reports have implicated C5a in xenograft rejection, to date, the molecular compatibility between human C5a and porcine C5a receptor (

Navigating adverse immunostimulation: A practical guide for clinical researchers
Problem Setting As drug development moves towards more complex products, early clinical development programmes are increasingly hampered by unwanted and/or unexpected activation of the immune system (adverse immune stimulation, AIS). Solution At the Centre for Human Drug Research, we have introduced standardized procedures to make AIS manageable, while

Trends in Ocean S‐Isotopes May Be Influenced by Major LIP Events
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Oral microbial homeostasis, a dynamic host‐microbe balance, is vital in infectious diseases. Conventional antibiotics often disrupt this homeostasis, spurring interest in nanomaterials for oral microbial homeostasis rebalancing. This review outlines nanomaterial strategies across three ecological levels (population/community, ecosystem, and cross ...
