Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Identifying an Australian ‘Shadow’ Benefit / Cost Ratio for Public Projects [PDF]
This paper examines the social opportunity cost of a hypothetical public project in Australia and compares these values with the cost of the project as measured by factor prices.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

Optimizing Costs to Collect Local Infauna through Grabs: Effect of Sampling Size and Replication
Diversity, 2020 Most ecological studies require a cost-effective collection of multi-species samples. A literature review unravelled that (1) large-sized grabs to collect infauna have been used at greater depths, despite no consistent relationship between grab size and ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Matched spatial transcriptomics and single‐nuclei RNA‐seq were generated for anaplastic and BRAFV600E papillary thyroid cancers revealing generic and tumor‐specific states occurring in cancer cells and in the tumor microenvironment. In this context, cancer dedifferentiation mirrored organoid maturation through ordered thyroid marker gain/loss ...

Meta-synthesis analysis of costs and benefits in general and Higher education [PDF]
Pizhūhish/hā-yi rahbarī va mudīriyyat-i āmūzishī, 2018 Education systems (public and higher) play a key role in the comprehensive development of diverse ecosystems, but in recent decades, with increasing turbulence and global financial crises, governments have lacked funding to provide education.

Discounting in cost-benefit analysis [PDF]
Society and Economy, 2011 There is much disagreement about the discount rate. The prescriptive approach derives the discount rate from utility functions, growth models and ethical considerations. The descriptive approach stresses the opportunity cost of capital, but struggles to define which market rates to average.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Partial inhibition of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) can paradoxically promote tumor growth, rather than simply producing a weaker antitumor effect than that observed with strong FAK suppression. In breast cancer and melanoma models, targeting p110δ PI3K, particularly in macrophages, counteracted these tumor‐promoting effects, highlighting the importance ...

Cognition and Cost-Benefit Analysis
SSRN Electronic Journal, 1999 Abstract Cost‐benefit analysis is often justified on conventional economic grounds, as a way of preventing inefficiency. But it is most plausibly justified on cognitive grounds—as a way of counteracting predictable problems in individual and social cognition.
