Investigation of immune cell markers in feline oral squamous cell carcinoma by Sparger, Ellen E., Murphy, Brian G., Mustaffa Kamal, Farina, Arzi, Boaz, Naydan, Diane, Skouritakis, Chrisoula T., Cox, Darren P., Skorupski, Katherine

“…Correlations between subtype, immune marker scores or circulating Treg frequencies and clinical characteristics or outcome were not detected, most likely due to small patient numbers within patient cohorts. However, findings from these studies provide a preliminary step in the characterization of immune and histologic markers that will be critical to defining prognostic immune markers for feline OSCC and potential targets for testing of immunotherapeutics also relevant to human HNSCC in future studies.…”

Kinetics of radical intermediate formation and deoxynucleotide production in 3-aminotyrosine-substituted Escherichia coli ribonucleotide reductases by Minnihan, Ellen Catherine, Seyedsayamdost, Mohammad R., Uhlin, Ulla, Stubbe, JoAnne

“…The resulting protein, Y[subscript 356]NH[subscript 2]Y-β2, and the previously generated proteins Y[subscript 731]NH[subscript 2]Y-α2 and Y[subscript 730]NH[subscript 2]Y-α2 (NH[subscript 2]Y-RNRs) are shown to catalyze dNDP production in the presence of the second subunit, substrate (S), and allosteric effector (E) with turnover numbers of 0.2–0.7 s[superscript –1]. Evidence acquired by three different methods indicates that the catalytic activity is inherent to NH[subscript 2]Y-RNRs and not the result of copurifying wt enzyme. …”

Measurement of the t [bar over t] production cross-section using eμ events with b-tagged jets in pp collisions at √s = 7 and 8 TeV with the ATLAS detector by Taylor, Frank E.

“…The measurement was performed with the 2011 7 TeV dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.6 fb[superscript −1] and the 2012 8 TeV dataset of 20.3 fb[superscript −1]. The numbers of events with exactly one and exactly two b -tagged jets were counted and used to simultaneously determine σ[subscript t bar over t] and the efficiency to reconstruct and b -tag a jet from a top quark decay, thereby minimising the associated systematic uncertainties. …”

Prediction of van Hove singularities, excellent thermoelectric performance, and non-trivial topology in monolayer rhenium dichalcogenides by Verzola, Ina Marie R., Villaos, Rovi Angelo B., Purwitasari, Winda, Huang, Zhi-Quan, Hsu, Chia-Hsiu, Chang, Guoqing, Lin, Hsin, Chuang, Feng-Chuan

“…Finally, one-sided hydrogenation of monolayer ReSe2 and ReTe2 (1h-ReSe2 and 1h-ReTe2) resulted in non-trivial topological phases as confirmed by the calculated Z2 and Chern topological invariant numbers. Our findings show that the 2D Re-based TMDs exhibit highly tunable properties which have the potential for thermoelectric and spintronics applications.…”
