Environmental threats makes the need for enhanced atmospheric monitoring obvious, but the will and organization to fund it are insufficient. Less obviously, global monitoring of fundamental geophysical parameters would bring great benefits.
A report on page 526 of this issue shows that, in blind subjects, the primary visual cortex becomes activated via the neural pathways mediating the sensation of touch. The implications of this finding are many and various.
αβ T cells specifically recognize a ligand composed of a peptide bound to a self-major-histocompatibility-complex molecule, but the recognition of slightly altered ligands by T cells can lead to a partial activation. This flexibility is crucial for T-cell development and can have both beneficial and harmful effects on peripheral T cells.
Improved liposome stability and drug retention significantly increase the anticancer activity of encapsulated doxorubicin (Doxil), enhancing the effectiveness of chemotherapy and potentially reducing its toxicity.
Solutions to the complexities of the life sciences are elusive, but what follows may offer a means of saving time as well as energy — several scalable purification systems, an instrument for absolute CD4 counts and more.
