such as individuals with other genetic syndromes like Fragile X or Down's syndrome, or children of schizophrenic parents. "We also want to investigate whether the 3% to 4% of adolescents
These allo-specific memory cells are capable of cross-reacting with foreign viral antigens and can be readily activated non-specifically by environmental stimuli such as cytokines and foreign pathogens. The memory pool of allo-specific immune cells in primed individuals can also be re-activated by ...
After supplementing the Greek data for deaths with the data for the number of individuals reported to be infected by SARS-CoV-2, we estimated the effect on deaths and infections in the case that the easing of the lockdown measures is different for these two subpopulations. We found that if...
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a complex multi-factorial degenerative disease that affects 50 million individuals worldwide and is the leading cause of vision loss in developed countries. Clinically, two advanced forms of AMD are recognized, the atrophic (aAMD) and the neovascular (nAMD...
To improve scholarly understanding of the topic, this study, through the angle of health professionals, examines the specific lack of understanding that prevent the men who have sex with men (MSM) and transgender individuals in two metropoles of Vietnam from accessing quality healthcare. Given ...
Given that in clinical practice, we will not treat healthy individuals with drugs, we consider that the effects of the compounds on neurite outgrowth in cells without Aβ induction may not be crucial and the experiment could have been skipped in this study. Furthermore, our findings are ...
Charny’s scholarly contributions also extended to the study of Holocaust and genocide denial. As a clinical psychologist, he examined the psychological mechanisms behind the reasons certain individuals or groups deny or downplay the severity of genocidal atrocities like the Holocaust.

The expression of intercellular connexin protein was down-regulated in injured stromal cells coinstantaneous with declined function of intercellular communication. In addition, the levels of bioactive substances produced by stromal cells were altered with declined hematopoietic stimulating factors but enhanced ...
HSC function declines with age, and prolonged myelosuppression in response to cytotoxic chemotherapy drugs suggests a reduced BM regenerative capacity in older individuals [93,94]. More recently, there is evidence to indicate a distinct role for intrinsic and extrinsic factors in HSC aging. Gene ...
