Local TSH/TSHR signaling promotes CD8+ T cell exhaustion and immune evasion in colorectal carcinoma
Abstract Background Dysfunction of CD8+ T cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME) contributes to tumor immune escape and immunotherapy tolerance. The effects of hormones such as leptin, steroid hormones, and glucocorticoids on T cell function have been reported previously.

The Second Raabe's Test and Other Series Tests [PDF]
The classical D'Alembert's Ratio Test is a powerful test that we learn from calculus to determine convergence for a series of positive terms. Its range of applicability and ease of computation makes this test extremely appealing. However, it admits an inconclusive case when the limiting ratio of the terms equals 1. Several series tests like Raabe's and

The Efficiency of Quantum Identity Testing of Multiple States [PDF]
We examine two quantum operations, the Permutation Test and the Circle Test, which test the identity of n quantum states. These operations naturally extend the well-studied Swap Test on two quantum states. We first show the optimality of the Permutation Test for any input size n as well as the optimality of the Circle Test for three input states.

ABSTRACT Background The potency of inactivated and recombinant influenza vaccines is measured using the single‐radial immunodiffusion (SRID) assay. The strain‐specific antigen and antibody potency reagents required for the assay are prepared and distributed by regulatory agencies to ensure vaccine standardization, but timely reagent production is ...

Improvements in the preparation of heterologous antilymphocyte globulin with special reference to absorption and diethylaminoethyl cellulose batch production [PDF]
Antilymphocyte gamma-G globulin (ALGG) was produced from the serum of immunized horses. Modifications of the preliminary absorption techniques permitted the removal of undesirable, extraneous antibodies.

We investigated the clinical impact of chronic pulmonary aspergillosis (CPA) in patients with lung cancer (LC) receiving anticancer drug treatment in a real‐world setting. The cause of death in LC patients with concomitant CPA who received anticancer drug treatments and effective antifungal treatment was LC progression.

Guinea worm infection in northern Nigeria: Reflections on a disease approaching eradication. [PDF]
: Global eradication of the guinea worm (Dracunculus medinensis) is near, although perhaps delayed a little by the discovery of a transmission cycle in dogs.
