Persistent elevation of intrathecal pro-inflammatory cytokines leads to multiple sclerosis-like cortical demyelination and neurodegeneration by James, Rachel E., Schalks, Renee, Browne, Eleanor, Eleftheriadou, Ioanna, Munoz, Carmen Picon, Mazarakis, Nicholas D., Reynolds, Richard

“…Our results suggest that persistent expression of TNF in the presence of IFNγ is a potent inducer of meningeal inflammation and can activate TNF signalling pathways in cortical cells leading to neuronal death and subpial demyelination and thus may contribute to clinical progression in MS.…”

Near-term deployment of novel carbon removal to facilitate longer-term deployment by Nemet, GF, Gidden, MJ, Greene, J, Roberts, C, Lamb, WF, Minx, JC, Smith, SM, Geden, O, Riahi, K

“…Yet at present, only 2 Gt is being removed per year, and nearly all of it is from forestry—only 0.1% is from novel forms of carbon removal. …”

Near-infrared afterglow semiconducting nano-polycomplexes for multiplex differentiation of cancer exosomes by Lyu, Yan, Cui, Dong, Huang, Jiaguo, Fan, Wenxuan, Miao, Yansong, Pu, Kanyi

“…Because detection of the afterglow takes place after the excitation, background signals are minimized, leading to an improved limit of detection that is nearly two orders of magnitude lower than that of fluorescence detection in cell culture media. …”
