Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is implicated in the pathogenesis of several inflammationrelated diseases, including obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D).However, MIF deficiency itself promotes obesity and glucose intolerance in mice.Here we show that the introduction of a high-fat diet (HFD) further aggravates the parameters of obesity-a
Human ADA3, the evolutionarily conserved transcriptional co-activator, remains the unified part of multiple cellular functions, including regulation of nuclear receptor functions, cell proliferation, apoptosis, senescence, chromatin remodelling, genomic stability and chromosomal maintenance.The past decade has witnessed exciting findings Underwired
ABSTRACT Most insects harbour endosymbionts that modify their physiology, reproductive mode, and ecology.One fascinating case is in aphids, which host endosymbionts that protect them against attacks from parasitoids.These symbionts are transmitted maternally with high fidelity but can also be transmitted horizontally from infected to uninfected hos
Objectives Predicting heave motion is helpful for improving the performance of the heave compensator and reducing the disturbance of waves on operating equipment.To improve the accuracy and stability of the heave prediction model, a real-time prediction method for ship heave motion is proposed in this paper.Methods Based on the Nonlinear Autoregres
