To prevent the transmissions of mosquito-borne diseases (e.g., malaria, dengue fever), recent works have considered the problem of using the sterile insect technique to reduce or eradicate the wild mosquito population.It is important to consider how reproductive advantage of the wild mosquito read more population offsets the success of population r
Neuropilin-1 (Nrp-1) expression on CD8+ T cells has been identified in tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes and in persistent murine gamma-herpes virus infections, where it interferes with the development of long-lived memory T cell responses.In parasitic and acute viral infections, the role of Nrp-1 expression on CD8+ T cells remains unclear.Here, we de
In many administrative entities, there is little information on the accessibility of critical resources such as food, water, healthcare and fuel.Yet the lack of accessibility to critical resources can be a risk-mitigating factor.Indeed, people who are not physically threatened by a hazard can be put at risk by the fact that they lack critical resou
Our understanding of basic cellular processes has mostly been provided by mammalian cell culture, and by some non-mammalian vertebrate and few invertebrate cell culture models.Developing reliable culture conditions for non-model organisms is essential to allow investigation of more unusual cellular processes.Here, we investigate how cells isolated
The ability to conceptualize numerical quantities is an essential human trait.According to the "Triple Code Model" in numerical cognition, distinct neural substrates encode the processing of visual, auditory, and non-symbolic numerical representations.While our contemporary understanding of human number cognition has benefited beer button down shir
