Dynamic recrystallization and mechanical behavior of Mg alloy AZ31: Constraints from tensile tests with in-situ EBSD analysis by Boissonneau, Gaëtan, Tommasi, Andréa, Barou, Fabrice, Lopez-Sanchez, Marco Antonio, Montagnat, Maurine

“…The intensity of this softening has to steadily increase with strain to explain the decrease in hardening rate between 15% and 60% strain. The apparent discrepancy between the kinetics of the microstructural evolution and the mechanical behavior implies, however, that the bulk softening does not depend solely on the DRX volume fraction, but also on its spatial organization.…”

Efficacy of natural killer T and gammadelta T cells in mesothelin-targeted immunotherapy of pancreatic cancer by Yuankui Zhu, Yaxi Yang, Linghe Yue, Lei Wan, Xuqian Ma, Qing Yang, Xuan Tian, Yuguan Li, Ke Wang, Shaozhong Wei, Shaozhong Wei, Shaozhong Wei, Dianbao Zuo, Mingqian Feng, Mingqian Feng

“…In addition, the systemic administration of NKT and γδT cells activators, α-galactosylceramide (α-GalCer) and Zoledronate, could enhance the anti-tumor effect of MSLN/CD3 bsAb, with no apparent toxicity. NKT and γδT cells are promising synergistic therapeutic cell types that may overcome the limitations of CD3 bispecific antibodies in pancreatic tumor treatments, offering a new perspective for clinical applications in immunotherapy.…”

Searching for a common host: parasitoids of Lema daturaphila on Datura stramonium in Central Mexico by Carol Estefanía Villanueva-Hernández, Juan Núñez-Farfán

“…The abundance of Emersonella lemae, the egg parasitoid, is related to the clutch size of L. daturaphila and climatic conditions such as temperature, altitude, and precipitation. As an apparent defense strategy against parasitoid flies, larvae of L. daturaphila release their oral secretions, which contain alkaloids from D. stramonium. …”
