Mycobacterium tuberculosis LprE enhances bacterial persistence by inhibiting cathelicidin and autophagy in macrophages [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
ABSTRACTMycobacterium tuberculosis(Mtb)lipoproteins are known to facilitate bacterial survival by manipulating the host immune responses. Here, we have characterized a novelMtblipoprotein LprE(LprEMtb), and demonstrated its role in mycobacterial survival. LprEMtbacts by down-regulating the expression of cathelicidin, Cyp27B1, VDR and p38-MAPK via TLR-2

Proposals for improving the efficiency and service life of the turbines of turbo-pump assemblies in liquid-propellant rocket engines by using double-sided crest-type radial labyrinth seals

open access: yesВестник Самарского университета: Аэрокосмическая техника, технологии и машиностроение, 2018
Nowadays the improvement of the design of liquid-propellant rocket engines (LPREs) depends on a variety of factors and activities, among which we can distinguish, for example, the improvement of energy characteristics of units and assemblies forming part

Mycobacterium tuberculosis LprE Suppresses TLR2-Dependent Cathelicidin and Autophagy Expression to Enhance Bacterial Survival in Macrophages [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Immunology, 2019
Abstract Despite representing a very important class of virulence proteins, the role of lipoproteins in the pathogenesis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis remains elusive. In this study, we investigated the role of putative lipoprotein LprE in the subversion of host immune responses using the M.

ANALYSIS OF THE INFLUENCE OF CONSTRUCTIVE FLOWING PART OF A INDUCER-CENTRIFUGAL PUMP FOR ITS CAVITATIONAL CHARACTERISTICS

open access: yesАвіаційно-космічна техніка та технологія, 2018
The phenomenon of cavitation is inherent in all vane machines, the working medium of which is liquid. With a certain combination of input pressure, flow rate, rotor speed, and the gas saturation of the working fluid in the vane machine, cavitation may ...

Mycobacterium tuberculosis: immune response, biomarkers, and therapeutic intervention. [PDF]

open access: yesMedComm (2020)
Currently, controlling the source of infection, interrupting transmission pathways, and protecting susceptible populations are key measures in tackling MTB infection. However, preventative, diagnostic, and therapeutic interventions for TB are also important in reducing the burden of the disease. First, in terms of preventing MTB infection, the Bacillus

L0-regularized high-dimensional sparse multiplicative models

open access: yesStatistical Theory and Related Fields
In this paper, we study high-dimensional sparse multiplicative models for positive response data and propose a variable sorted active set (VSAS) algorithm for finding the [Formula: see text] regularized least product relative error (LPRE) estimator.

Effects of Leakage Neutral Particles on Shocks

open access: yes, 2012
In this paper we investigate effects of neutral particles on shocks propagating into the partially ionized medium. We find that for 120 km/s < u_{sh} < 3000 km/s (u_{sh} is the shock velocity), about ten percent of upstream neutral particles leak into ...
