Methionine enkephalin(MENK) upregulated memory T cells in anti-influenza response [PDF]

BMC Immunology, 2023
Novel prophylactic drugs and vaccination strategies for protection against influenza virus should induce specific effector T-cell immune responses in pulmonary airways and peripheral lymphoid organs.

Methionine enkephalin (MENK) protected macrophages from ferroptosis by downregulating HMOX1 and ferritin [PDF]

Proteome Science
Objective The aim of this work was to investigate the immunological effect of MENK by analyzing the protein spectrum and bioinformatics of macrophage RAW264.7, and to explore the relationship between macrophage and ferroptosis.

Proteomics analysis of methionine enkephalin upregulated macrophages against infection by the influenza-A virus

Proteome Science, 2023
Macrophages have a vital role in phagocytosis and antiviral effect against invading influenza viruses. Previously, we found that methionine enkephalin (MENK) inhibited influenza virus infection by upregulating the “antiviral state” of macrophages.

What's at stake? A human well-being based proposal for assessing risk of loss and damage from climate change

Frontiers in Climate, 2022
Current scientific discourse on the assessment of loss and damage from climate change focuses primarily on what is straightforwardly quantifiable, such as monetary value, numbers of casualties, or destroyed homes.

É POSSÍVEL ADAPTAR A FILOSOFIA PARA O SISTEMA EAD?

Kínesis, 2021
Nesse artigo, os autores propõem uma reflexão sobre a adaptação do ensino de filosofia para a modalidade de ensino a distância. Justifica-se a necessidade de refletir sobre essa temática principalmente no contexto da pandemia da Covid-19.

Observations of Pc 3-4 and Pi 2 geomagnetic pulsations in the low-latitude ionosphere [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 1999
Day-time Pc 3–4 (~5–60 mHz) and night-time Pi 2 (~5–20 mHz) ULF waves propagating down through the ionosphere can cause oscillations in the Doppler shift of HF radio transmissions that are correlated with the magnetic pulsations recorded on the ground.

High-latitude observations of impulse-driven ULF pulsations in the ionosphere and on the ground [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 2003
We report the simultaneous observation of 1.6–1.7 mHz pulsations in the ionospheric F-region with the CUTLASS bistatic HF radar and an HF Doppler sounder, on the ground with the IMAGE and SAMNET magnetometer arrays, and in the upstream solar wind.

Methionine Enkephalin Suppresses Osteocyte Apoptosis Induced by Compressive Force through Regulation of Nuclear Translocation of NFATc1

JBMR Plus, 2020
Mechanical stress stimulates bone remodeling, which occurs through bone formation and resorption, resulting in bone adaptation in response to the mechanical stress. Osteocytes perceive mechanical stress loaded to bones and promote bone remodeling through

Effects of mixed scatter on SuperDARN convection maps [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 2008
The SuperDARN radars map high-latitude ionospheric plasma drift velocities by measuring the Doppler frequency shift of HF signals scattered by decameter electron density irregularities.
