Single Cell Analysis Reveals Dynamic Changes of Distinct Cell Populations in Human Nickel Allergy

Allergy, EarlyView.
We investigated cell types mediating the early and late inflammatory responses in human Ni2+‐allergy by scRNA‐Seq. Early responsiveness was mainly mediated by TLR4+TAGLN− endothelial cells indirectly activating TLR4−KRT16+ keratinocytes, and CCR7+DCN+ DCs. Late responsiveness was crucially driven by infiltration of KLF2+ central memory T cells and TLR4+

On the Cost of Participating in a Peer-to-Peer Network

, 2003
In this paper, we model the cost incurred by each peer participating in a peer-to-peer network. Such a cost model allows to gauge potential disincentives for peers to collaborate, and provides a measure of the ``total cost'' of a network, which is a ...

Identification of MEF2A, MEF2C, and MEF2D interactomes in basal and Fsk‐stimulated mouse MA‐10 Leydig cells

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Myocyte enhancer factor 2 transcription factors regulate essential transcriptional programs in various cell types. The activity of myocyte enhancer factor 2 factors is modulated through interactions with cofactors, chromatin remodelers, and other regulatory proteins, which are dependent on cell context and physiological state.

Novel distributed Hash table——BChord

, 2008
A novel distributed Hash table（DHT） BChord was presented. BChord adopts bi-directional search mechanism of Chord. Though query items of finger table in BChord almost double to Chord, compared with Chord, BChord evi- dently increases speed at searching of resource and spreading of messages via theoretic proof and simulation results.

Flow‐pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet indicated by the subglacial lineation record over Norway, Sweden and Finland

Boreas, EarlyView.
We present a 25‐stage reconstruction of the ice‐flow pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet based on mapping and analysis of ~240 000 subglacial lineations and lineation fields across Norway, Sweden, Finland, and parts of NW Russia. Our reconstruction uses a glacial geomorphological inversion approach, in which we generated 611 individual ...

Encoding Occupancy in Memory Location for Efficient and Compact High‐Resolution Voxel Structures

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We encode information about geometric structure into the pointers of a sparse voxel directed acyclic graph (SVDAG). Each pointer carries information about the structure of the node it points to. Our encoding improves ray tracing performance and reduces model size in memory.

Using miniaturized laboratory equipment and DNA barcoding to improve conservation genetics training and identify illegally traded species

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Illegal wildlife trade (IWT) is one of the largest global illegal activities, and it negatively affects biodiversity and sustainable development worldwide. DNA barcoding coupled with high‐throughput sequencing (i.e., metabarcoding) is useful in identifying taxa affected by IWT and has been used routinely for decades.

A link between increased temperature and avian body condition in a logged tropical forest

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The combined effects of anthropogenic disturbances, such as logging and climate change, remain poorly understood; yet, they are the main threats to tropical biodiversity. Most tropical African countries lack long‐term climate data, so climate impacts on biodiversity cannot be assessed.

Cryptocurrency Bubbles and Costly Mining

International Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper develops a model of a cryptocurrency by incorporating mining into the otherwise standard search‐theoretic monetary framework. As usual, multiple equilibria exist. To obtain a sharp prediction on whether a cryptocurrency' s value will last in the future, I propose a notion of equilibrium refinement based on the feature that mining ...

Miners' Reward Elasticity and Stability of Competing Proof‐of‐Work Cryptocurrencies

International Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Proof‐of‐Work cryptocurrencies employ miners to sustain the system through algorithmic reward adjustments. We develop a stochastic model of the multicurrency mining and identify conditions for stable transaction speeds. Bitcoin's algorithm requires hash supply elasticity <$<$1 for stability, while ASERT remains stable for any elasticity and ...
