The complement is the first line of immune defense system involved in elimination of invading pathogens and dying host cells.Its activation is mainly triggered by immune complexes or pattern recognition molecules (PRMs) upon recognition against non-self or altered self-cells, such as C1q, collectins, ficolins, and properdin.Recent findings have int
Analog network coding (ANC) is a promising technique of improving the throughput of relaying, especially when combined with both rate- and power-adaptation in the context of amplify-and-forward two-way relaying (AF-TWR ).In particular, the adaptation is employed both during the multiple access stage, when a pair of terminals transmit simultaneously
Acute iatrogenic aortic dissection following percutaneous coronary intervention is a rare but sinister cause of post-procedure morbidity and mortality.Delayed diagnosis increases the mortality significantly.We present a case ORG GINGER CHUNKS of a 52-year-old male who presented with an iatrogenic aortic dissection following percutaneous coronary in
Adenosine to inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing, the most prevalent type of RNA editing in metazoans, is carried out by adenosine deaminases (ADARs) in double-stranded RNA regions.Several computational approaches have been recently developed to identify A-to-I RNA editing sites from sequencing data, each addressing a particular issue.Here, we present RNA
