The Observed Phase Space of Mass-loss History from Massive Stars Based on Radio Observations of a Large Supernova Sample by Itai Sfaradi, Assaf Horesh, Rob Fender, Lauren Rhodes, Joe Bright, David Williams-Baldwin, Dave A. Green

“…This sample comprises both archival data and our new observations of 99 CCSNe conducted with the AMI-LA radio array in a systematic approach devised to constrain the mass loss at different stages of stellar evolution. In the supernova (SN)–CSM interaction model, observing the peak of the radio emission of an SN provides the CSM density at a given radius (and therefore the mass-loss rate that deposited this CSM). …”

Aberrant heterochromatin silences immune response genes in chronic lymphocytic leukemia by Olivia M. Depies, Qianqian Guo, Yuan Gao, Sutapa Sinha, Zhenqing Ye, Weiguo Han, Kari G. Rabe, Mingma S. Hoel, Heather C. Darby, Chuanhe Yu, Esteban Braggio, Sameer A. Parikh, Susan L. Slager, Neil E. Kay, Zhiquan Wang

“…We further found that this aberrant chromatin signature also exists in the CLL precursor stage monoclonal B-cell lymphocytosis (MBL) cells, implicating the importance of epigenetic silencing in CLL evolution. Finally, when treated with the Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor ibrutinib, these silenced enhancers are relatively stable during therapy compared with the CLL-gained enhancers. …”
