Abstract Background It has been shown previously that human monocytes fed with haemozoin (HZ) or trophozoite-parasitized RBCs displayed increased matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) enzyme activity and protein/mRNA expression and increased TNF production, and showed higher matrix invasion ability.The present study utilized the same experimental mode

Abstract Graph contrastive learning has been developed to learn discriminative node representations on homogeneous graphs.However, it is not clear how to augment the heterogeneous graphs without substantially altering the underlying semantics or how to design appropriate pretext tasks to fully capture the rich semantics preserved in heterogeneous i

From the beginning of the Iraq war, in March of 2003, to the present day, controversy has swirled around the death toll of the war.This paper narrows down the range of uncertainty for the numbers and trends in violent deaths in the war.I assemble and appraise all primary Fun and Games sources that cover the period from March of 2003 onwards-six sam

The SBP-box gene significantly influences plant growth, development, and stress responses, yet its function in pepper plants during drought stress remains unexplored.Using virus-induced gene silencing and overexpression strategies, we examined the role of CaSBP13 during drought stress in plants.The results Combs revealed that the expression of CaSB
