The protection is one of the most important techniques for the modular multilevel converter (MMC) high-voltage dc (HVdc) system. The existing single-ended dc line protections are mainly based on the ...

Although nano- and microparticle therapeutics have been studied for a range of drug delivery applications, the presence of these particles in blood flow may have considerable and understudied ...

Though our earliest societies may have been monophasic sleepers, Ekrich found records of segmented sleep dating back to Homer’s Odyssey, published in the late 8th or early 7th century B.C.

Glioblastoma is a common brain tumor that poses considerable challenges in drug delivery. In this study, we investigated the potential of cell-based nanoparticles for targeted drug delivery to the ...

Disruption of neutrophil infiltration or inhibition of the Gas6/AXL signalling axis in combination with chemotherapy inhibits metastatic growth. Chemotherapy increases Gas6 expression in circulating ...

Rationale Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) affects over 200 000 people annually in the USA. Despite causing severe, and often refractory, hypoxaemia, the high mortality and long-term ...

Aim: Neutrophil migration in the intestine depends on chemotaxis of neutrophils to CXC chemokines produced by epithelial cells. The goal of this project was to determine if acute induction of a CXC ...

Figure 2 Neutrophil activity in sepsis: chemotaxis, phagocytosis, and apoptosis. Figure created from the results obtained in this review. Panel i: Description of the main mechanisms related to ...
