The Star Cluster Population in the Tidal Tails of NGC 6872

open access: yes, 2005
We present a photometric analysis of the rich star cluster population in the tidal tails of NGC 6872. We find star clusters with ages between 1 - 100 Myr distributed in the tidal tails, while the tails themselves have an age of less than 150 Myr. Most of

Serum soluble mediator signatures of lupus nephritis: histological features and response to treatment

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective Lupus nephritis (LN) management remains challenging, and novel noninvasive biomarkers are needed. This study quantified serum soluble mediators in the Accelerating Medicines Partnership (AMP) LN cohort to identify biomarkers of histological features and treatment response.

Between the Cosmic-Ray “Knee” and the “Ankle”: Contribution from Star Clusters

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We show that massive, young star clusters may be possible candidates that can accelerate Galactic cosmic rays (CRs) in the range of 10 ^7 –10 ^9 GeV (between the “knee” and “ankle”).

The star cluster - field star connection in nearby spiral galaxies. II. Field star and cluster formation histories and their relation

open access: yes, 2011
Recent studies have started to cast doubt on the assumption that most stars are formed in clusters. Observational studies of field stars and star cluster systems in nearby galaxies can lead to better constraints on the fraction of stars forming in ...

Diffusion‐Weighted Imaging for the Evaluation of the Sacroiliac Joint in Pediatric Patients

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Background Maturational signal in the sacroiliac joint (SIJ) of skeletally immature youth is often misinterpreted as inflammation. Diagnostic tools that improve specificity are greatly needed. Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values from diffusion‐weighted imaging (DWI), when used with standard imaging, may enhance diagnostic accuracy.

Exploration of a Dissolving Association Made Up of IC 2602, Tucana–Horologium, and Other Young Comoving Groups

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Recently Gagné et al. suggested that young moving groups with similar kinematic properties could be part of larger dissolving structures. One example was IC 2602 as the core of a group of associations, including its corona (CIC 2602), Tucana-Horologium ...

The Immobilization of Hyaluronic Acid in 3D Hydrogel Scaffolds Modulates Macrophage Polarization

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
This study explores the use of collagen‐hyaluronic acid (HA) hydrogels for the 3D culture of macrophages, providing a useful tool for modelling macrophage behavior in tissues and diseases. It highlights how hydrogel composition, mechanical properties, and preparation methods influence macrophage behavior, revealing for the first time that HA's ...

Ultracool dwarfs in open clusters and star-forming regions

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
In this contribution I review the results of the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) Galactic Clusters Survey (GCS) on the Initial Mass Function (IMF) and the current searches for young T dwarfs in open clusters and star-forming regions.

How Universal are the Young Cluster Sequences? - the Cases of LMC, SMC, M83 and the Antennae

open access: yes, 2009
Aims.Recently a new analysis of cluster observations in the Milky Way found evidence that clustered star formation may work under tight constraints with respect to cluster size and density, implying the presence of just two sequences of young massive ...

3D In Vitro Models of Breast Cancer: Current Challenges and Future Prospects Toward Recapitulating the Microenvironment and Mimicking Key Processes

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
In vitro cancer models are advantageous for studying important processes such as tumorigenesis, cancer growth, invasion, and metastasis. The complexity and biological relevance increase depending on the model structure, organization, and composition of materials and cells.
