The Fetal Allograft Revisited: Does the Study of an Ancient Invertebrate Species Shed Light on the Role of Natural Killer Cells at the Maternal-Fetal Interface? by Amy Lightner, Danny J. Schust, Yi-Bin A. Chen, Breton F. Barrier

“…Since human uterine NK cells appear to de-emphasize primary immunological function, it is proposed that they may share the same evolutionary roots as the B. schlosseri allorecognition system rather than a primary origin in immunity.…”

On the Origin of the Nervous System Based on Studying Sensillae in Acoel Turbellarians (Acoela) by Ya.I. Zabotin, A.I. Golubev

“…Hertwig's classical concepts, it is possible to suggest that the third scenario took place in this evolutionary process. Apparently, the sensitive and contractile parts of the sensory-muscular cell diverged into sensillae and muscle cells, respectively. …”

The Influence of the Instantaneous Collapse of Tailings Pond on Downstream Facilities by Sha Wang, Guodong Mei, Xuyang Xie, Lijie Guo

“…To evaluate the evolutionary processes guiding the formation of the tailings-water mixtures produced by the instantaneous collapse of tailings ponds and the influence of these on downstream facilities, a 2D simulation model with reasonable boundary and working conditions derived from actual engineering practice was built in this study, and the relationship between dam-break elevation and impact on downstream facilities was also analyzed to determine the relevant mechanism of influence. …”
