A Proposed Quantitative Index for Assessing the Potential Contribution of Reprogramming to Cancer Stem Cell Kinetics

Stem Cells International, 2014
Enrichment of cancer stem cells (CSCs) is thought to be responsible for glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) recurrence after radiation therapy. Simulation results from our agent-based cellular automata model reveal that the enrichment of CSCs may result either

Implementing potential climate‐smart practices through diverse partnerships

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Climate change is one of the greatest threats to society, negatively impacting agriculture and crop yields. Globally, agriculture is also one of the largest greenhouse gas (GHG) emitting sectors. Climate‐smart practices that are developed through diverse partnerships with scientists and practitioners are needed to decrease GHG emissions. We implemented

Safety, tumor trafficking and immunogenicity of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cells specific for TAG-72 in colorectal cancer

Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer, 2017
Background T cells engineered to express chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) have established efficacy in the treatment of B-cell malignancies, but their relevance in solid tumors remains undefined. Here we report results of the first human trials of CAR-T

Past, present and future of local crop evolution

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Promoting agrobiodiversity is a promising strategy for mitigating the negative effects of climate change on global food security. We highlight the central role evolutionary processes play in harnessing the potential of local crops by integrating genomics, archaeology, ethnobotany and traditional ecological knowledge (TEK).

Conservation gap analysis for wild grapevines (Vitis L.) of the Americas

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Wild grapevines (Vitis L.) native to the Americas are ecologically and culturally important plants that are also critical to the global cultivated grape industry as sources of traits for crop innovation, but many of these species are poorly documented and insufficiently conserved.

Model‐Based Systems Engineering in Space Applications: A Comprehensive Literature Review

Systems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The growing complexity of space engineering is driving the demand to embrace the adoption of Model‐Based Systems Engineering (MBSE). Although the MBSE is well‐practiced in the space industry, the level of effort and need required to obtain the benefits of MBSE vastly differ across enterprises; this disparity presents a significant challenge to

Architecting and Industrializing Advanced Production and Manufacturing Systems for Critical Industries

Systems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Advanced production systems play a vital role in modern society. Such systems are developed and industrialized over multiple years and at great expense. The complexities of these systems are exacerbated in the case of metal additive manufacturing, which involves numerous process variables and relies on various auxiliary systems.

Evaluating early‐season hail damage in corn and its interaction with Goss's wilt

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Hailstorm losses are associated with plant defoliation, stand losses, and reduced crop canopy capacity to compete with weeds. Additionally, hail wounds in plants might favor disease development, potentially further reducing corn yields. Corn yield losses due to hailstorms early in the growing season are considered minor due to an expected ...
