Blended learning in teaching higher mathematics to students with disabilities by A. N. Semakin

“…In this paper we propose a solution for basic mathematical disciplines taught to students with disabilities at Bauman Moscow State Technical University.The purpose of the study is to find the optimal organization of the process of studying higher mathematics by students with disabilities at Bauman Moscow State Technical University in the framework of blended learning, combining elements of the traditional teaching in the classroom and elements of online learning.Materials and research methods include the analysis of scientific and methodological literature on blended learning, the preparation and implementation of electronic training materials and teaching aids, the analysis of student performance and feedback, as well as the subsequent educational process adjustment based on the data received.The result of the study is the creation of a balanced two-component structure of the educational process in the framework of blended learning. …”

IN VITRO ACTIVATION OF EARLY-STAGE APOPTOSIS OF T LYMPHOCYTES BY TRANSFERRING APOPTOTIC AUTOLOGOUS CELL CULTURE COMPONENTS IN PATIENTS WITH RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS by T. Ya. Abramova, V. A. Tsura, E. A. Blinova, A. Yu. Morenkova, V. A. Kozlov

“…It was observed both against initial level of apoptosis, and when compared to cells induced for apoptosis. The obtained data suggest that stimulation of T lymphocytes with antibodies against CD3, and, as a result, an in vitro rise in cell proliferation rate leading to increased levels of early apoptosis not only among the cells directly receiving a proliferative stimulus, but also to increased effect of cellular and humoral components from anti-CD3-stimulated cultures upon normally proliferating lymphocytes.The transfer of an autologous apoptotic “aCD3” and dexamethasone-stimulated cultures, which were initially induced under conditions of cell overcrowding and medium exhaustion, was shown to activate the process of early apoptosis among normally proliferating cells. …”

Comparative transcriptome analysis reveals a possible mechanism of starvation stress-induced fruit abscission in macadamia by Yu-Chong Fei, Yi Mo, Kai Lin, Liang Tao, Xiyong He, Faquan Ye, Jiajing Xu, Meng Li, Zeng-Fu Xu

“…Changes in the soluble sugar content of the fruit and the transcript levels of genes in the abscission zone were analyzed and identified during the abscission process. Compared with that in the control group, the increase in the fruit abscission rate after GPD treatment was related to a decrease in the soluble sugar content, especially the sucrose and glucose contents, in the pedicel. …”
