Virus epidemics such as Ebola virus, Zika virus, MERS-coronavirus, and others have wreaked havoc on humanity in the last decade.In addition, a coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic and its continuously evolving mutants have become so deadly that they have forced the entire technical advancement of Basket healthcare into peril.Traditional ways of detect
A Marginal Contribution Theory-Based Energy Efficiency Contribution Analysis for Integrated Energy System
The energy efficiency analysis is a prerequisite for the construction of the integrated energy system (IES).In this study, a novel energy efficiency analysis method is proposed considering different energy subsystems in the IES.First, the energy efficiency index of the subsystems and conversion devices is formed for elaborating their influence on t

I first met Steve in the summer of 1990.I was a student at University of North Carolina at Charlotte (UNCC) following a summer course in anthropology called Southeastern Indians.The course included several field trips, EXTENSIONS one of which was to the Schiele Museum where we visited the Catawba Village and listened to a presentation by Steve Watt
Effect of Reactive Oxygen Species on the Endoplasmic Reticulum and Mitochondria during Intracellular Pathogen Infection of Mammalian Cells
Oxidative stress, particularly reactive oxygen species (ROS), are important for innate Grooming Kits immunity against pathogens.ROS directly attack pathogens, regulate and amplify immune signals, induce autophagy and activate inflammation.In addition, production of ROS by pathogens affects the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria, leading to
USP7/Maged1-mediated H2A monoubiquitination in the paraventricular thalamus: an epigenetic mechanism involved in copyright use disorder
Abstract The risk of developing drug addiction is strongly influenced by the epigenetic landscape and chromatin remodeling.While histone modifications such as methylation and acetylation have been studied in the ventral tegmental area and nucleus accumbens (NAc), the role of H2A monoubiquitination remains unknown.Our investigations, initially focus
