Stimulus equivalence and supplemental measures on equivalence relations

, 2012
The present article introduces stimulus equivalence research as an experimental analysis on how previously unrelated stimuli can generate a specific pattern of responding without being directly taught. Murray Sidman and colleagues set forth that stimulus equivalence should be considered as a basic process in line with other behavioral processes such as

The Impact of Scale Direction on Data Quality

Survey Research Methods
Survey literature has documented a tendency for respondents to select scale options closer to the start of a scale, resulting in scale direction effects. This paper builds upon the literature and expands it in two important ways.

Structural and biochemical insights into the thermostable esterase Ta0887 from Thermoplasma acidophilum

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In this study, a novel esterase from the thermoacidophilic archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum was biochemically and structurally characterized. Our results demonstrate that Ta0887 is a highly thermostable esterase that preferentially hydrolyzes p‐nitrophenyl hexanoate and possesses an α‐helical cap domain that likely contributes to its substrate ...

BCG vaccination potentiates oxidative phosphorylation in neonatal myeloid‐derived suppressor cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
BCG vaccination enhances oxidative phosphorylation in neonatal MDSCs, impairing their immunosuppressive function. It upregulates electron transport chain genes and mitochondrial activity, increasing ATP and oxygen consumption. Pharmacological OXPHOS inhibition partially restores suppressive capacity, confirming causality.
