Multilingualism in Lithuanian Children’s Folklore by Anglickienė Laimutė, Macijauskaitė-Bonda Jurgita

“…In Lithuanian folklore, two major influences can be traced: Russian influence, particularly from World War II until the beginning of the 21st century, and influence from English-speaking countries, beginning in the 1990s and continuing to the present. Children translate folklore, sometimes word for word, adapt foreign texts, plots, traditions, take over certain genres, or integrate separate words or phrases from other languages into Lithuanian folklore.…”

Exploring the nexus between banking stability and market value: Evidence from the Iraqi banking sector by Ali Abdulhassan Abbas, Anwar Abdul Kareem Hassouni

“…Banks with strong risk management practices, adequate capital buffers, and effective regulatory oversight inspire greater confidence among depositors and investors, translating into higher market valuations. Conversely, banks facing poor governance, high non-performing loans, and thin capital cushions struggle to achieve stability, eroding their market value. …”

Discovery of conserved peptide-MHC epitopes for directly alloreactive CD8+ T cells by Alexandra E. Hill, Eric T. Son, Moumita Paul-Heng, Chuanmin Wang, Shivanjali Ratnaseelan, Martina Denkova, Pouya Faridi, Asolina Braun, Anthony W. Purcell, Nicole A. Mifsud, Alexandra F. Sharland

“…In conclusion, small animal studies have demonstrated the feasibility of high-throughput approaches for the discovery of pMHC epitopes recognised by directly alloreactive T cells. Translating this approach to the human setting is achievable and will yield both critical insights into the fundamental basis of alloreactivity and powerful tools for immune monitoring in transplantation.…”

sRrsR-Net: A New Low-Light Image Enhancement Network via Raw Image Reconstruction by Zhiyong Hong, Dexin Zhen, Liping Xiong, Xuechen Li, Yuhan Lin

“…In order to leverage both the advantages of sRGB and raw domains while avoiding the direct use of raw images as training data, this paper introduces sRrsR-Net, a novel framework with the image translation process of sRGB–raw–sRGB for LIE task. In our approach, firstly, the RGB-to-iRGB module is designed to convert sRGB images into intermediate RGB feature maps. …”

Pruning and optimization of optical neural network as a binary optical trigger by Bokun Zhao, Xuening Dong, Kaveh Rahbardar Mojaver, Brett H. Meyer, Odile Liboiron-Ladouceur

“…We demonstrate in simulation that the pruning methodology achieves at least 50% less MZI usage compared to Clements and Reck meshes with the same input size, translating to at least between 4.6% and 24.2% savings in power consumption and a 40% reduction in physical circuitry footprint compared to other proposed unitary MZI topologies, sacrificing only 1%–2% drop in inference accuracy.…”

Transcriptional and Posttranscriptional Regulations of the HLA-G Gene by Erick C. Castelli, Luciana C. Veiga-Castelli, Layale Yaghi, Philippe Moreau, Eduardo A. Donadi

“…The HLA-G promoter region is different from the classical class I promoters, mainly because (i) it lacks regulatory responsive elements for IFN-γ and NF-κB, (ii) the proximal promoter region (within 200 bases from the first translated ATG) does not mediate transactivation by the principal HLA class I transactivation mechanisms, and (iii) the presence of identified alternative regulatory elements (heat shock, progesterone and hypoxia-responsive elements) and unidentified responsive elements for IL-10, glucocorticoids, and other transcription factors is evident. …”

Are Ancient Durum Wheats Less Toxic to Celiac Patients? A Study of α-Gliadin from Graziella Ra and Kamut by M. Stella Colomba, Armando Gregorini

“…For all accessions, a few α-gliadin alleles were also cloned, sequenced and translated into aminoacid sequences. Several aminoacid substitutions or deletions were detected in p31–49, DQ2-Glia-α1 and DQ2-Glia-α2 epitopes, nevertheless, ELISA constantly showed antibody-antigen positive reactions which led us to suggest that mAbs binding was not apparently affected by polymorphisms. …”
