Circulating CD3+HLA-DR+ Extracellular Vesicles as a Marker for Th1/Tc1-Type Immune Responses by Ryutaro Oba, Motomichi Isomura, Akira Igarashi, Kinya Nagata

“…To establish T cell subset-specific biomarkers, we performed proteomic analysis with Th1- and Th2-derived EVs and identified HLA-DR as a Th1-dominated EV membrane protein. We designed a measurement system for CD3+CD4+, CD3+CD8+, and CD3+HLA-DR+ EVs to specifically determine EV subpopulations derived from CD4+, CD8+, and Th1-type T cells, respectively. …”

Tension and compression of flat [+-45o]2s specimens from fiber reinforced plastic: Numerical and experimental investigation of forming stresses and strains by V.N. Paimushin, R.A. Kaymov, V.A. Firsov, R.K. Gazizullin, S.A. Kholmogorov, M.A. Shishov

“…Experiments on the tension of flat specimens from a fiber composite with a [±45°]2s lay-up to determine the deformed state using a non-contact strain measurement system have been performed. The obtained results allow to indicate areas in which the implementation and continuous change of internal non-classical buckling modes of structural elements of fibrous composites are possible during the loading process, which is probably one of the reasons for the physically nonlinear behavior of specimens with the [±45°]2s lay-up under tension and compression.…”
