PLC and PAD2 Regulate Extracellular Calcium‐Triggered Release of Macrophage Extracellular DNA Traps
Extracellular calcium induces MET release from human macrophages. Concurrently, extracellular calcium activates the NLRP3 inflammasome. Citrullinated histones, MMP12, MPO and ASC specks are bound to METs and are released by rupture of the plasma membrane, where they exhibit bactericidal properties.

Between Pacifism and Nuclear Energy (1930-1955) [PDF]
The atomic bomb American program known as Manhattan Project has been studied in detail. Historians argue that the beginning of this program is rooted in the letter Einstein sent to American President Roosevelt in the summer of 1939. This article examines Einstein's activities before 1933 as radical pacifist in favor of the principles of universal ...

Deformation effect on nuclear density profile and radius enhancement in light- and medium-mass neutron-rich nuclei [PDF]
Mass number dependence of the nuclear radii is closely related to the nuclear matter properties. It is known that the most of nuclei exhibit some deformation. We discuss how the nuclear density profile is modified by the nuclear deformation to elucidate the enhancement mechanism of the nuclear radii through a systematic investigation of neutron-rich Ne,

Abstract Moralized minority actors can play important roles in social change processes by rejecting majority social norms and modeling alternative societal pathways. However, being a minority actor can be difficult, often resulting in stigma, derogation, and hostility from the majority group.

Towards a Global Zero for Nuclear Weapons: Three Lessons from Latin America [PDF]
Full nuclear disarmament and the effective non-proliferation of atomic weapons are two of the most challenging aspirations of humankind. To tackle these issues, most analysts focus on the experiences of nuclear-weapon-owning states.

A call for global nuclear disarmament [PDF]
Danger from nuclear weapons is mounting. It is time to take control of the nuclear fuel cycle and move towards a world without warheads, says Scott D. Sagan.

An Insect Effector Mimics Its Host Immune Regulator to Undermine Plant Immunity
Under normal conditions, high OsGF14e expression recruits OsEDR1l and enhances OsEDR1l‐mediated MAPK cascade to restrict immunity and promote plant growth. Upon insect infestation, the OsGF14e signaling circuit is rewired toward active immune responses that confer resistance to BPH at the expense of growth.

Whose finger on the nuclear trigger: The U.S. election focuses the mind on who will be commander-in-chief - and why we continue to have nuclear weapons anyway [PDF]
The U.S. presidential election underscores the critical issue of nuclear weapons and the challenges of nuclear deterrence. As the next commander-in-chief may have to make split-second decisions on nuclear strikes, the stakes are high given the rapid ...
