The Fear of Excess by David Michael Batt

“…On the other hand, having disburdened itself of any intrinsically valuable commodity, the abstract monetary sign of paper money would give rise to a fear of excess, a fear that in essence there was nothing which could limit its growth. In this paper, I will discuss the concept of paper money as it took shape in the writings of eighteenth-century monetary writers as an abstract monetary sign, introducing the idea of general economy of notes to help explore the ambivalent place occupied by paper money. …”

Abscisic acid, and abscisic acid-induced water stress tolerance in mycorrhizal herbaceous and olive (Olea europaea) plants by Mariano Andrés Busso

“… The worldwide expansion of drought-affected areas has a negative effect on crop yield and production, making water stress the most significant abiotic stress, limiting plant growth and development. The use of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) is a strategy that mitigates the effects of this kind of stress in a sustainable way, which occurs due to the increased tolerance to water stress in plants inoculated with these fungi. …”

Loss of pyruvate kinase M2 limits growth and triggers innate immune signaling in endothelial cells by Stone, O, El-Brolosy, M, Wilhelm, K, Liu, X, Romão, A, Grillo, E, Lai, J, Günther, S, Jeratsch, S, Kuenne, C, Lee, I, Braun, T, Santoro, M, Locasale, J, Potente, M, Stainier, D

“…Mechanistically, we show that the NF-κB transcription factor RELB is responsive to PKM2 loss, limiting EC growth through the regulation of P53. Furthermore, S-adenosylmethionine synthesis is impaired in the absence of PKM2, resulting in DNA hypomethylation, de-repression of endogenous retroviral elements (ERVs) and activation of antiviral innate immune signalling. …”

NalP-mediated proteolytic release of lactoferrin-binding protein B from the meningococcal cell surface. by Roussel-Jazédé, V, Jongerius, I, Bos, M, Tommassen, J, van Ulsen, P

“…Bacteria have developed several mechanisms for iron uptake during colonization of mammalian hosts, where the availability of free iron is limiting for growth. Neisseria meningitidis expresses under iron-limiting conditions a receptor complex consisting of the lactoferrin-binding proteins A (LbpA) and LbpB to acquire iron from lactoferrin, which is abundantly present on the mucosal surfaces of the human nasopharynx. …”

Mechanism and application of nonessential amino acid deprivation associated with tumor therapy by Shiqi Nong, Yuran Qian, Tingyue Zhang, Xueyan Zhou, Yuhao Wei, Xiaomeng Yin, Xuelei Ma

“…Related studies have confirmed in cells and animal models that either increase or decrease of NEAAs can limit the growth of tumor cells. Therefore, NEAAs deprivation diet has attracted more attention in recent years and it has been gradually applied in clinical practice for further research. …”

Formation mechanism of faulted bands and its effect on α′-martensitic transformation by Xiaohui Xi, Guangqi Dong, Lingyu Wang, Jun Hu, Chunguang Shen, Jinliang Wang, Wei Xu

“…They can provide nucleation sites for α′-martensitic transformation but can act as an effective barrier to limit the growth of α′-martensite laths. In addition, the same plane was found between the formation plane of the faulted band and the habit plane of α′-martensite, which indicates that the variant types of α′-martensite were decided by the variant types of faulted bands.…”
