Spontaneous topological Hall effect induced by non-coplanar antiferromagnetic order in intercalated van der Waals materials
In ferromagnets, an electric current generally induces a transverse Hall voltage in proportion to the internal magnetization. This effect is frequently used for the electrical readout of the spin-↑ and spin-↓ ...

Measles Virus Receptors
Measles virus (MV) has two envelope glycoproteins, the hemagglutinin (H) and fusion protein, which are responsible for attachment and membrane fusion, respectively. Signaling lymphocyte activation molecule (SL...

Retinal degeneration is delayed by tissue factor pathway inhibitor-2 in RCS rats and a sodium-iodate-induced model in rabbits
To investigate the in vivo effects of tissue factor pathway inhibitor 2 (TFPI-2), which stimulates proliferation of retinal pigment epithelial cells, but not the proliferation of fibroblast and vascular endotheli...

The measles virus hemagglutinin downregulates the cellular receptor SLAM (CD150)
Signaling lymphocyte activation molecule (SLAM), a cellular receptor for measles virus, was downregulated from the surface of cells infected with either the Edmonston or wild-type KA strain of measles virus. ...

Latent herpes simplex virus-1 infection in SCID mice transferred with immune CD4+T cells: a new model for latency
In C.B-17 severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) mice, corneal challenge with herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1) KOS strain usually leads to fatal encephalitis. With the transfer of T cells from immunized BALB/c...

Amino acid substitutions at position 481 differently affect the ability of the measles virus hemagglutinin to induce cell fusion in monkey and marmoset cells co-expressing the fusion protein
The hemagglutinin (H) protein of the measles virus (MV) Edmonston strain induced cell fusion in Cos (monkey) and B95a (marmoset) cells, when co-expressed with the fusion (F) protein, whereas the H protein of ...

Flux Dynamics during Pulsed-Field Magnetization in R-Ba-Cu-O (R=Y, Sm) Bulk Superconductors
The flux motion during the pulsed field-magnetization (PFM) process in the melt-processed Sm-Ba-Cu-O bulk superconductor was investigated using the pick-up coil technique in the temperature range 35–77 K. The ...

The hemagglutinin of recent measles virus isolates induces cell fusion in a marmoset cell line, but not in other CD46-positive human and monkey cell lines, when expressed together with the F protein
Measles virus (MV) is efficiently isolated from patients with measles by using B95a cells, a marmoset B cell line. Recent wild-type MV strains isolated using B95a cells did not produce cytopathic effects in an...

Preparation and Superconducting Properties of Melt-Textured NdBa2Cu3Oy Bulk with Sm2BaCuO5 Addition
The NdBa2Cu3Oy (Nd123) bulk superconductor, to which Sm2BaCuO5 (Sm211) particles were intentionally added, was prepared through the so-called MMTG process in Ar (99% purity) flowing atmosphere at an ambient press...

L cell clone develo** plaques upon infection with measles virus (Edmonston strain)
An L cell clone develo** cytopathic plaques upon infection with measles virus (Edmonston strain) was obtained. The sensitivity as measured by the newly devised UV-Vero assay was not significantly different b...

Measles virus infects mouse fibroblast cell lines, but its multiplication is severely restricted in the absence of CD46
Mouse cell lines (L, NIH3T3, and RMA cells) infected with the Edmonston strain of measles virus (MV) did not exhibit cytopathic effects (CPE), consistent with the finding that mice are not susceptible to MV. N...

Gene rearrangement in cells with natural killer activity and expression of the β-chain of the T-cell antigen receptor
The mammalian host defence system can be divided broadly into adaptive and non-adaptive immunity. Adaptive immunity is acquired and is mediated by B and T lymphocytes. Non-adaptive immunity is mediated in part...
