In vitro and in vivo antivirus activity of an anti-programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) rat-bovine chimeric antibody against bovine leukemia virus infection.

Programmed death-1 (PD-1), an immunoinhibitory receptor on T cells, is known to be car mackwell involved in immune evasion through its binding to PD-ligand 1 (PD-L1) in many chronic diseases.We previously found that PD-L1 expression was upregulated in cattle infected with bovine leukemia virus (BLV) and that an antibody that blocked the PD-1/PD-L1

Natural history of a mouse model of X-linked myotubular myopathy

X-linked myotubular myopathy (XLMTM) is a severe monogenetic disorder of the skeletal muscle.It is caused by loss-of-expression/function mutations in the myotubularin (MTM1) gene.Much of what is known about the disease, as well as the treatment strategies, has been uncovered through experimentation in pre-clinical models, particularly the Mtm1 gene

Late Line-of-Sight Check and Prioritized Trees for Path Planning

How to generate a safe and high-quality path for a moving robot is a classical issue.The relative solution is also suitable for computer games and animation.To make the problem simpler, it is common to discretize the continuous planning space into grids, with blocked cells to represent obstacles.However, grid-based path-finding algorithms usually c
