Dysregulation of NK and CD8+T Cells by the Microbiota Promotes the Progression of Lung Cancer by Shouxin Hu, Yanfang Zha, Wenwen Yang, Kele Cui, Min Cheng

“…Long-term antibiotic treatment significantly reduced the number NK cells and IFN-γ secretion and CD8+T cells in the lungs of wild-type (WT) mice, suggesting that the microbiota plays an important role in maintaining homeostasis of NK cells and CD8+T cells under normal conditions. However, in Kras-mutated mice, the altered pulmonary immune microenvironment resulted in a microbiota disorder and in the loss of the ability to regulate the immune responses of NK cells and CD8+T cells, thus promoting the occurrence and development of lung cancer. …”

Formation and development of the Acquis Communautaire in France, Germany and Switzerland: A comparative legal analysis by N. O. Rastorhuieva

“…The difference in the formation and development of the acquis between France and Germany, as well as Switzerland, is manifested in the mechanism and consequences of the implementation of the new acquis: Switzerland participates in the development process, but not in decision-making. Finally, it is noted that the common feature of the development of the EU acquis for all these countries is a combination of market-liberal and general social values and the introduction of a socially oriented market economy model.…”

Simulation of Rainfall Runoff and Pollution Control by Sponge City Based on SWMM— A Case Study of Sponge Demonstration Area in Guangming District, Shenzhen by LU Qiaohui, HUANG Yilong, PENG Zhiren

“…In order to quantitatively study the control effects of sponge city construction on runoff volume and runoff pollution,taking the sponge demonstration area in Guangming District,Shenzhen as the example,this paper simulates and analyzes the rainfall runoff process under the normal year and rainfall events of different return periods based on SWMM model.The conclusions are as follows:① Sponge city construction could significantly benefit the reduction of runoff volume and runoff pollution,but the effects would decrease if lacking the follow-up maintenance for sponge facilities.② Sponge facilities could evidently reduce the runoff volume and runoff pollution with rainfall return periods less than 5 years.Otherwise,the effects on runoff volume reduction,runoff peak delay,peak runoff volume reduction and suspended solid (SS) removal would weaken.③With the increase of the rainfall intensity,the final SS concentration would decrease under the dual action of sponge and rainfall runoff.The results show that degraded sponge facilities could restrain the control effects on rainfall runoff,which are of significance for sponge city construction and maintenance.…”
