Type I Diabetes-Associated Tolerogenic Properties of Interleukin-2 by Aziz Alami Chentoufi, Simon Gaudreau, Alex Nguyen, Mahmoud Sabha, Abdelaziz Amrani, Geyhad ElGhazali

“…Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) results from insulin-producing beta cells destruction by diabetogenic T lymphocytes in humans and nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice. The breakdown of tolerance has been associated with a defect in the number and the function of naturally occurring regulatory T cells (nTreg) that are the master player in peripheral tolerance. …”

Risk Intelligence: Making Profit from Uncertainty in Data Processing System by Si Zheng, Xiangke Liao, Xiaodong Liu

“…In extreme scale data processing systems, fault tolerance is an essential and indispensable part. Proactive fault tolerance scheme (such as the speculative execution in MapReduce framework) is introduced to dramatically improve the response time of job executions when the failure becomes a norm rather than an exception. …”

Memory-like states created by the first ethanol experience are encoded into the Drosophila mushroom body learning and memory circuitry in an ethanol-specific manner. by Caleb Larnerd, Maria Nolazco, Ashley Valdez, Vanessa Sanchez, Fred W Wolf

“…We show that the three ethanol memory-like states, anesthesia-sensitive tolerance (AST) and anesthesia resistant tolerance (ART) created by ethanol sedation to a moderately high ethanol exposure, and chronic tolerance created by a longer low concentration ethanol exposure, each engage the mushroom body circuitry differently. …”

The Relationship between Serum Ferritin and Insulin Resistance in Different Glucose Metabolism in Nonobese Han Adults by Bo-wei Liu, Xu-min Xuan, Jun-ru Liu, Fang-ning Li, Fu-Zai Yin

“…This study showed that ferritin concentration in impaired glucose regulation and newly diagnosed diabetes mellitus subjects of nonobesity already significantly increased when compared with normal glucose tolerant subjects of nonobesity. Elevated serum ferritin levels are associated with insulin resistance and may be not associated with the decline of insulin beta cells in different status of glucose tolerance in nonobese Han adults.…”

The Effect of Immunosuppressive Drugs on MDSCs in Transplantation by Fan Yang, Yang Li, Qian Zhang, Liang Tan, Longkai Peng, Yong Zhao

“…Studies on the effects of immunosuppressive drugs on MDSCs will significantly expand our understanding of immunosuppressive drugs on immune regulatory cells in transplantation and offer new insights into transplant tolerance. We hope to emphasize our concern for the negative effects of immunosuppressive agents on MDSCs, which may potentially attenuate the immune tolerance induction in transplanted recipients.…”
