Microglia activation in the offspring of prenatal Poly I: C exposed rats: a PET imaging and immunohistochemistry study [PDF]

open access: yesGeneral Psychiatry, 2018
Background The well-known ‘pyrotherapy’ of Julius Wagner-Jauregg might be the beginning of the study on the immunological concepts of schizophrenia. As the primary immune effector cells in the brain, microglia play a pivotal role in neuroinflammatory ...

Evaluation of Crystalline Volume Fraction of Laser-Annealed Polysilicon Thin Films Using Raman Spectroscopy and Spectroscopic Ellipsometry

open access: yesMicromachines, 2021
We investigated the crystallinities of poly silicon (poly Si) annealed via green laser annealing (GLA) with a 532-nm pulsed laser and blue laser annealing (BLA) with 450-nm continuous-wave lasers.

Thermosensitive Shape-Memory Poly(stearyl acrylate-co-methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) acrylate) Hydrogels

open access: yesGels, 2023
Stimuli-sensitive hydrogels are highly desirable candidates for application in intelligent biomaterials. Thus, a novel thermosensitive hydrogel with shape-memory function was developed. Hydrophobic stearyl acrylate (SA), hydrophilic methoxy poly(ethylene

Effects of Diabetes and Voluntary Exercise on IgA Concentration and Polymeric Immunoglobulin Receptor Expression in the Submandibular Gland of Rats

open access: yesMedicina, 2023
Background and Objectives: Patients with diabetes are more susceptible to upper respiratory tract infections (URTIs) because they are easily infected. Salivary IgA (sali-IgA) levels play a major role in transmitting URTIs.

RIG-I and dsRNA-induced IFNbeta activation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
Except for viruses that initiate RNA synthesis with a protein primer (e.g., picornaviruses), most RNA viruses initiate RNA synthesis with an NTP, and at least some of their viral (ppp)RNAs remain unblocked during the infection. Consistent with this, most

Synthesis, Properties, and Biodegradability of Thermoplastic Elastomers Made from 2-Methyl-1,3-propanediol, Glutaric Acid and Lactide

open access: yesLife, 2021
An innovative type of biodegradable thermoplastic elastomers with improved mechanical properties from very common and potentially renewable sources, poly(L-lactide)-b-poly(2-methyl-1,3-propylene glutarate)-b-poly(L-lactide) (PLA-b-PMPG-b-PLA)s, has been ...

A (quasi-)polynomial time heuristic algorithm for synthesizing T-depth optimal circuits

open access: yesnpj Quantum Information, 2022
We investigate the problem of synthesizing T-depth optimal quantum circuits for exactly implementable unitaries over the Clifford+T gate set. We construct a subset, $${{\mathbb{V}}}_{n}$$ V n , of T-depth 1 unitaries.

Amphiphilic Block Copolymers with Vinyl Caprolactam as Kinetic Gas Hydrate Inhibitors

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
Macrosurfactants consisting of water-soluble poly(vinylcaprolactam) (PVCap) or poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) segments with comparatively shorter hydrophobic poly(styrene) (PS) or poly(2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorostyrene) (PPFS) segments were used as kinetic ...
