Microfluidic Characterization and Analysis of Circulating Tumor Cells From Patients With Metastatic Melanoma [PDF]
ABSTRACT Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) can provide non‐invasive insight into how a cancer patient responds to therapy. Their role in disease monitoring of advanced melanoma patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) is unknown. CTC protein expression of human leukocyte antigen class‐I (HLA I) and programmed death ligand‐1 (PD‐L1) may ...

Phanerozoic Large Igneous Province, Petroleum System, and Source Rock Links
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

On the principle of competitive exclusion in metapopulation models [PDF]
In this paper we present and analyse a simple two populations model with migrations among two different environments. The populations interact by competing for resources. Equilibria are investigated.

Massive graviton propagation of the deformed Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz gravity without projectability condition [PDF]
We study graviton propagations of scalar, vector, and tensor modes in the deformed Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz gravity ($\lambda R$-model) without projectability condition.

The Three Loop Two-Mass Contribution to the Gluon Vacuum Polarization [PDF]
We calculate the two-mass contribution to the 3-loop vacuum polarization of the gluon in Quantum Chromodynamics at virtuality $p^2 = 0$ for general masses and also present the analogous result for the photon in Quantum Electrodynamics.Comment: 5 pages ...
