Allergen challenge alters lymphocyte phosphodiesterase activity in horses with heaves

open access: yes, 2004
Heaves is an allergic airway disease in horses characterised by reversible airway obstruction, bronchial hyperresponsiveness and airway inflammation associated with a Th-2 response.

Salivary Scavenger and Agglutinin (SALSA) Is Expressed in Mucosal Epithelial Cells and Decreased in Bronchial Epithelium of Asthmatic Horses

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2019
The Salivary Scavenger and Agglutinin (SALSA) protein is an innate immune protein with various alleged functions, including the regulation of inflammation and tissue remodeling.

Study on Wave Loads during Steady-State Gap Resonance with Free Heave Motion of Floating Structure

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Fluid resonance may occur in a narrow gap between two side-by-side vessels under wave actions, which can cause significant wave height amplification inside the gap and further induce large wave loads and motion responses of the vessel.

Bronchoconstrictive properties of inhaled 8-epi-Pgf2alpha in healthy and heaves-susceptible horses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
peer reviewedThe 8-epi-PGF2α is a marker of oxidative stress which is increased in lungs of asthmatic humans and heaves-susceptible horses. 8-Epi-PGF2α has also been demonstrated to be an in vitro and in vivo bronchoconstrictor in humans and rodents. We

Emergence of a Hexagonal Fe2S2 Single Layer Without a Bulk Counterpart via Phase Transformation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Upon annealing, single‐layer Mackinawite iron sulfide transforms into a previously unknown hexagonal Fe2S2${\rm Fe}_2{\rm S}_2$ phase with β$\beta$‐CuI structure. STM, LEED, and first‐principles calculations identify the structure and show that electronic correlations and magnetic order are important for its stability.

Aspergillus fumigatus antigen-reactive Th17 cells are enriched in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid in severe equine asthma

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
IntroductionEquine asthma (EA) is a common disease of adult horses with chronic respiratory pathology and common neutrophilic airway inflammation. It presents with hyperreactivity to hay dust components such as molds, and underlying dysregulated T cell ...

Modulation of bronchial smooth muscle function in horses with heaves

open access: yes, 1994
Four mechanisms that modulate airway smooth muscle function in normal horses were studied in the bronchi of horses affected by the airway obstructive disease heaves.

Percolation‐Driven β‐Relaxation Enables Resonant Acceleration of Crystallization in Amorphous Phase‐Change Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Mobile‐atom percolation underlying β‐relaxations fundamentally dictates the crystallization pathways of phase‐change materials. High‐frequency ultrasonic excitation dynamically modulates this critical mobility percolation network, substantially accelerating the crystallization process.

Heave and Heaving Pressure in Freezing Soils: A Unifying Theory

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, 2013
A unifying theory is presented for the process of heave in freezing soils. Out of the Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory (CRREL) school of D.M. Anderson came the concept of the segregation potential . Out of the Cornell school of R.D. Miller came the model for the

Frost Heave in Colloidal Soils [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, 2011
We develop a mathematical model of frost heave in colloidal soils. The theory accounts for heave and consolidation while not requiring a frozen fringe assumption. Two solidification regimes occur: a compaction regime in which the soil consolidates to accommodate the ice lenses, and a heave regime during which liquid is sucked into the consolidated soil
