Dendritic cells (DC) are thought to initiate Ab synthesis by activation of T cells, which then
provide cytokine and cell-bound “help” to B cells. Here, we provide evidence that DC can …

Bottom trawlers land around 19 million tons of fish and invertebrates annually, almost one-quarter
of wild marine landings. The extent of bottom trawling footprint (seabed area trawled at …

In this study, we characterized nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) subunit DNA binding in chronic
lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) samples and demonstrated heterogeneity in basal and inducible NF…

Mimicking growth factor–extracellular matrix interactions for promoting cell migration is a
powerful technique to improve tissue integration with biomaterial scaffolds for the regeneration …

Sharks and rays' abundance can decline considerably with fishing. Community changes,
however, are more complex because of species interactions and variable vulnerability and …

Shelf seas and their associated benthic habitats represent key systems in the global carbon
cycle. However, the quantification of the related stocks and flows of carbon are often poorly …

New Zealand has a large and geologically complex marine Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ)
and extended continental shelf (ECS). Data from ∼150 published, unpublished, national …

The application of a biological traits analysis, in the present study, has allowed benthic
habitat sensitivities and their risk of impact to be mapped at a spatial scale appropriate for the …

DC derived from rat pseudo-afferent lymph (L-DC) vary in CD4, CD11b/c, Thy1, and OX41
expression. CD4 and OX41 are expressed by the same subpopulation (50–60%) of L-DC. …

This paper provides new maps of the surficial sediment distribution on the continental shelf (0∼150
m water depth) of New Zealand based on a new database – nzSEABED. The maps …
