Mannan detecting C-type lectin receptor probes recognise immune epitopes with diverse chemical, spatial and phylogenetic heterogeneity in fungal cell walls.

PLoS Pathogens, 2020
During the course of fungal infection, pathogen recognition by the innate immune system is critical to initiate efficient protective immune responses. The primary event that triggers immune responses is the binding of Pattern Recognition Receptors (PRRs),

Electrical Breakdown Analysis of Emerging Oil–Paper Insulation Systems

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This investigation addresses the effect of particulate additives on the electrical breakdown strength of the oil impregnated insulation paper system. The morphological complexity is addressed by converting data from scanning electron microscope images to a data set suitable for numerical simulation analysis. Then, by using the conventional oil‐

Cancer pain: current practice and emerging targets

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cancer pain (CP) arises from a complex interplay between the tumour and its microenvironment. Many patients experience a mixed pain phenotype that encompasses nociceptive, neuropathic and neuroinflammatory mechanisms, and vary across tumour type and disease stage. Despite decades of intensive research, the mainstay of cancer pain treatment is still non‐

Sustained Clinical Improvement in Birch Pollen Allergy After Two Pre‐Seasonal Short Courses of Allergen‐Specific Immunotherapy: A Long‐Term Open‐Label Extension Study

Clinical &Experimental Allergy, EarlyView.
3 years follow‐up study to a DBPC dose‐finding trial investigating subcutaneous immunotherapy with T502 in birch‐pollen induced allergic rhinoconjunctivitis. 154 birch‐pollen allergic adults received short‐course treatment of 10,000 mTU/mL of T502 for 2 years and were observed during the next season without treatment.

How do collective identities influence sector‐wide digital transformations? Insights from the European cooperative sector

European Management Review, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper applies the multilevel perspective (MLP) theory to investigate how collective identities influence sector‐wide digital transformations, focusing on the cooperative sector in Europe. By employing a wide mix of primary and secondary data from platform and incumbent cooperatives, our analysis showed that collective identities ...
