B cells and the Antibody-Dependent Immune Response in Cancer and Infection
(2015)B cells and humoral immunity are critical components of an effective immune response. However, B cells are also a significant driver of a variety of autoimmune diseases and can also become malignant. Antibody-mediated B ... -
B cells in rheumatoid synovitis.
(Arthritis Res Ther, 2005)In rheumatoid arthritis, T cells, B cells, macrophages, and dendritic cells invade the synovial membranes, establishing complex microstructures that promote inflammatory/tissue destructive lesions. B cell involvement has ... -
B Corp Certification at R. Riveter
(2018-04-19)This two-part research study provides a case study of the B Corp certification process and examines the overall value of the B Corp certification for small businesses within North Carolina. The researcher assisted an early-stage ... -
B-cell targeting in chronic Graft-versus-Host disease.
(Blood, 2018-02-01)Over the last decade our understanding of the pathophysiology of chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) has improved considerably. In this spotlight, we discuss emerging insights into the pathophysiology of cGVHD with ... -
B-cyclin/CDK Regulation of Mitotic Spindle Assembly through Phosphorylation of Kinesin-5 Motors in the Budding Yeast, <italic>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</italic>
(2012)Although it has been known for many years that B-cyclin/CDK complexes regulate the assembly of the mitotic spindle and entry into mitosis, the full complement of relevant CDK targets has not been identified. It has previously ... -
B-Cyclin/CDKs regulate mitotic spindle assembly by phosphorylating kinesins-5 in budding yeast
(PLoS Genetics, 2010-05-01)Although it has been known for many years that B-cyclin/CDK complexes regulate the assembly of the mitotic spindle and entry into mitosis, the full complement of relevant CDK targets has not been identified. It has previously ... -
B-lymphocyte effector functions in health and disease.
(2010)B cells and humoral immunity make up an important component of the immune system and play a vital role in preventing and fighting off infection by various pathogens. B cells also have been implicated in the pathogenesis ... -
B. F. Skinner: Mistaken – or Misunderstood?
(2013-07-02)The chief offense of “political correctness” is its unreflective certainty – about which causes to hail or demonize and about the necessity to take sides on every issue. Science has no room for such dogmatism, of course. ... -
B10 Cell Frequencies and Suppressive Capacity in Myasthenia Gravis Are Associated with Disease Severity.
(Front Neurol, 2017)Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a T cell-dependent, B cell-mediated disease. The mechanisms for loss of self-tolerance in this disease are not well understood, and recently described regulatory B cell (Breg) subsets have not been ... -
Babel On the Hudson: Community Formation in Dutch Manhattan
(2007-05-10)This dissertation focuses on New Amsterdam, the small port town at the tip of Manhattan Island that became the capital for the Dutch colony of New Netherland. It addresses two of the most entrenched stereotypes regarding ... -
Baby on board: olfactory cues indicate pregnancy and fetal sex in a non-human primate.
(Biol Lett, 2015-02)Olfactory cues play an integral, albeit underappreciated, role in mediating vertebrate social and reproductive behaviour. These cues fluctuate with the signaller's hormonal condition, coincident with and informative about ... -

Back to the Basics in NEPA - A Case Study on the U.S. Air Force’s Rapid Improvement Event (RIE) to Improve Environmental Impact Analysis Process (EIAP) through the Implementation of Preliminary Environmental Impact Analysis Process (PREIAP)
(2012-09-07)The Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Installations, Environment, and Logistics (SAF/IE) has set a course for getting “back to basics” in improving Air Force compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), ... -
Backscatter Spatial Coherence for Ultrasonic Image Quality Characterization: Theory and Applications
(2020)Adaptive ultrasound systems, designed to automatically and dynamically tune imaging parameters based on image quality feedback, represent a promising solution for reducing the user-dependence of ultrasound. The efficacy ... -
Bacteremic disseminated tuberculosis in sub-saharan Africa: a prospective cohort study.
(Clin Infect Dis, 2012-07)BACKGROUND: Disseminated tuberculosis is a major health problem in countries where generalized human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection epidemics coincide with high tuberculosis incidence rates; data are limited on patient ... -
Bacteria localization and chorion thinning among preterm premature rupture of membranes.
(PLoS One, 2014)OBJECTIVE: Bacterial colonization of the fetal membranes and its role in pathogenesis of membrane rupture is poorly understood. Prior retrospective work revealed chorion layer thinning in preterm premature rupture of membranes ... -
Bacterial Communication and Cooperation: From Understanding to Applications
(2013)Bacteria communicate, coordinate, and cooperate as a population and this `social' behavior is key to their proliferation. Quorum sensing (QS) is the cell-cell communication mechanism by which bacteria sense their population ... -
Bacterial effector activates jasmonate signaling by directly targeting JAZ transcriptional repressors.
(PLoS pathogens, 2013-10-31)Gram-negative bacterial pathogens deliver a variety of virulence proteins through the type III secretion system (T3SS) directly into the host cytoplasm. These type III secreted effectors (T3SEs) play an essential role in ...
