Microglia Play a Major Role in Direct Viral-Induced Demyelination by Dhriti Chatterjee, Kaushiki Biswas, Soma Nag, S. G. Ramachandra, Jayasri Das Sarma

“…Current studies revealed that MHV infection is associated with the pronounced activation of microglia during acute inflammation, as evidenced by characteristic changes in cellular morphology and increased expression of microglia-specific proteins, Iba1 (ionized calcium-binding adaptor molecule 1), which is a macrophage/microglia-specific novel calcium-binding protein and involved in membrane ruffling and phagocytosis. …”

A Simulated Galaxy Laboratory: Exploring the Observational Effects on UV Spectral Absorption Line Measurements by R. Michael Jennings, Alaina Henry, Valentin Mauerhofer, Timothy Heckman, Claudia Scarlata, Cody Carr, Xinfeng Xu, Mason Huberty, Simon Gazagnes, Anne E. Jaskot, Jeremy Blaizot, Anne Verhamme, Sophia R. Flury, Alberto Saldana-Lopez, Matthew J. Hayes, Maxime Trebitsch

“…Down-the-barrel observations, where the absorption is measured against the galaxy itself, are commonly used to study feedback from galactic outflows and to make predictions about the leakage of H i ionizing photons into the intergalactic medium. Nonetheless, the interpretation of these observations is challenging, and observational compromises are often made in terms of signal-to-noise ratio, spectral resolution, or the use of stacking analyses. …”
