Microbial Pathogenicity in Space

After a less dynamic period, space exploration is now booming.There has been a sharp increase in the number of current missions and also of those being planned for the near future.Microorganisms will be an inevitable component of these missions, mostly because they hitchhike, either attached to space technology, like spaceships or spacesuits, to or

Pin1 modulates the type 1 immune response.

BACKGROUND/ABSTRACT: Immune responses initiated by T cell receptor (TCR) and costimulatory L-Arginine molecule mediated signaling culminate in maximal cytokine mRNA production and stability.The transcriptional responses to co-stimulatory T cell signalling involve calcineurin and NF-AT, which can be antagonized by interference with the cis-trans pep

Effect of bedrock morphology, axial transport and lateral material sources on braided river sediments: A case study from Munin Valley, central Spitsbergen

The Munin River (Svalbard) is a mountainous braided proglacial river.It drains from two valley glaciers developing an elongated channel belt and turning into a wide braided outwash fan before entering the main river.The Munin River is in its axial head supplied by the material from glaciers, and along the stream by material from lateral sources, i.
