Open AccessA new integrative analysis of histopathology and single cell RNA-seq reveals the CCL5 mediated T and NK cell interaction with vascular cells in idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension
Inflammation and dysregulated immunity play vital roles in idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH), while the mechanisms that initiate and promote these processes are unclear.

Enhanced method of slices with experimental evidence for predicting static liquefaction on tailings dams
Saturated tailings deposits in the upstream dam are at risk of static liquefaction due to elevated porewater pressure levels. The concept of a potential static liquefaction zone was conceived, and an enhanced ...

Open AccessExperimental quantum simulation of non-Hermitian dynamical topological states using stochastic Schrödinger equation
Noise is ubiquitous in real quantum systems, leading to non-Hermitian quantum dynamics, and may affect the fundamental states of matter. Here we report in an experiment a quantum simulation of the two-dimensio...

A Global Equity Assessment System Based on Principal Component Analysis
In this paper, we propose an equity assessment model(EAM) to describe global equity to evaluate the impact of the asteroid mining plan on global equity. First, we define global equity: each country is able to ...

Open AccessInfluenza A virus NS1 gene mutations F103L and M106I increase replication and virulence
To understand the evolutionary steps required for a virus to become virulent in a new host, a human influenza A virus (IAV), A/Hong Kong/1/68(H3N2) (HK-wt), was adapted to increased virulence in the mouse. Amo...
