Flocking and invariance of velocity angles by Le Li, Lihong Huang, Jianhong Wu

“…Motsch and Tadmor considered an extended Cucker-Smale model to investigate the flocking behavior of self-organized systems of interacting species. In this extended model, a cone of the vision was introduced so that outside the cone the influence of one agent on the other is lost and hence the corresponding influence function takes the value zero. …”

Heparan sulphate inhibition of cell proliferation induced by TGFβ and PDGF by lan E. Silber, Jeanine M. Walenga, Jawed Fareed, Elizabeth J. Kovacs

“…Continuous presence of HS was not required, suggesting that the inhibitory effects resulted from a direct effect on the cell rather than an interaction of the GAG with growth factors. The mechanism by which GAGs inhibit proliferation will be addressed in future studies.…”

Postmastectomy Radiation Therapy: Are We Ready to Individualize Radiation? by Ashlyn S. Everett, Drexell Hunter Boggs, Jennifer F. De Los Santos

“…While surgical staging has traditionally dictated indications for postmastectomy radiation therapy (PMRT), our current understanding of tumor biology, host, immunoprofiles, and tumor microenvironment may direct a more personalized approach to radiation. Understanding the interaction of these variables may permit individualization of adjuvant therapy aimed at appropriate escalation and deescalation, including recommendations for PMRT. …”
