Orientation selection of equiaxed dendritic growth by three-dimensional cellular automaton model [PDF]
A three-dimensional (3-D) adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) cellular automata (CA) model is developed to simulate the equiaxed dendritic growth of pure substance. In order to reduce the mesh induced anisotropy by CA capture rules, a limited neighbor solid fraction (LNSF) method is presented.

Scanning Electron Microscopy and Metabolite Measurement Revealed the Stress Mechanism of PS-COOH Microplastics on Rhodotorula mucilaginosa AN5 [PDF]
Microplastics in the marine environment have been paid more and more attention by researchers, and the impact of these substances on marine microorganisms can not be ignored. Studies have shown that PS-COOH Microplastics are harmful to marine molluscs, algae and monads.

On regularity properties of solutions to the hysteresis-type problems [PDF]
We consider equations with the simplest hysteresis operator at the right-hand side. Such equations describe the so-called processes "with memory" in which various substances interact according to the hysteresis law. We restrict our consideration on the so-called "strong solutions" belonging to the Sobolev class $W^{2,1}_q$ with sufficiently large $q$

Plant gene bank collections - sources of variation in health substances [PDF]
Gene banks and national plant genetic resources programmes have been established to conserve genetic resources of domesticated plants. Variation of the beneficial health substances found in plants is the result of growing conditions (environment) and ...

Dendritic cells steering antigen and leukocyte traffic in lymph nodes
Dendritic cells are key players in the activation of T cells and their commitment to effector function. In this In a Nutshell Review, we will discuss how dendritic cells guide the trafficking of antigen and leukocytes in the lymph node, thus influencing T‐cell activation processes. Dendritic cells (DCs) play a central role in initiating and shaping the

Influence of hydrometeors on relativistic runaway electron avalanches [PDF]
Previously, all studies in this area of atmospheric physics, namely, avalanches of relativistic runaway electrons (RREA), were carried out without taking into account the presence of hydrometeors in thunderclouds, which could seriously affect the results and their correspondence to actually observed natural phenomena.

Hiring in the substance use disorder treatment related sector during the first five years of Medicaid expansion [PDF]
Effective treatment strategies exist for substance use disorder (SUD), however severe hurdles remain in ensuring adequacy of the SUD treatment (SUDT) workforce as well as improving SUDT affordability, access and stigma. Although evidence shows recent increases in SUD medication access from expanding Medicaid availability under the Affordable Care Act ...

In vivo IL‐10 produced by tissue‐resident tolDC is involved in maintaining/inducing tolerance. Depending on the agent used for ex vivo tolDC generation, cells acquire common features but prime T cells towards anergy, FOXP3+ Tregs, or Tr1 cells according to the levels of IL‐10 produced. Ex vivo‐induced tolDC were administered to patients to re‐establish/

Auxin-induced growth inhibition a natural consequence of two-point attachment [PDF]
It is characteristic of a great number of biologically active substances that the responses which they elicit are twofold, low concentrations of the material promoting a particular activity, and higher concentrations inhibiting it.

FoxO1 signaling in B cell malignancies and its therapeutic targeting
FoxO1 has context‐specific tumor suppressor or oncogenic character in myeloid and B cell malignancies. This includes tumor‐promoting properties such as stemness maintenance and DNA damage tolerance in acute leukemias, or regulation of cell proliferation and survival, or migration in mature B cell malignancies.
