Ddx21 mutant peptide is an effective neoantigen in prophylactic lung cancer vaccines and activates long-term anti-tumor immunity by Zhe Zhang, Yimeng Xia, Yimeng Xia, Zhihong Wang, Yaxing Sun, Dan Pu, Yijia He, Ruixian Liu, Yanru Zhang, Yan Liu, Junzhi Yu, Shiyang Ning, Baisui Feng, Yaohe Wang, Na Wang

“…Our previous studies indicated that mice immunized with a prophylactic vaccine based on lung cancer cell lines KPL 160302S, derived from early-stage murine lung cancer tissues, exhibited a significantly extended survival period, with a strong anti-tumor immune response. While the vaccine based on KPL 160424S, derived from advanced-stage murine lung cancer tissues, failed to extend survival time and demonstrated limited capacity to stimulate anti-tumor immunity. …”

Characterization of Scintillation Events With Basis on L1 Transmissions From Geostationary SBAS Satellites by Alison Moraes, Jonas Sousasantos, Emanoel Costa, Bruno Augusto Pereira, Fabiano Rodrigues, João Francisco Galera Monico

“…The results indicate that: (a) scintillation occurs from September to March in both links; (b) the most likely numbers of observed scintillation events per night were two or three, particularly during the first 2 years; (c) on average, the first scintillation event usually had larger maximum S4 values when compared to those of the later ones along the night; (d) the first scintillation event had a longer mean duration than the succeeding ones in a given night; (e) the durations of scintillation events, regardless of their numbers per night and the location, decreased with local time; (f) the opposite dependence of spacings between consecutive events on local time was observed; (g) the cumulative distribution functions of the scintillation onset time indicated a strong dependence on the dip latitude of the station; and (h) early occurrences of onset times are directly related to the increased probability of the occurrence of multiple scintillation events.…”
