Human IgM was previously shown to inhibit Titan-like cell formation of , whereas IgG did not. Here, we conducted an in-depth analysis of the effect of normal human IgA on biology (strain H99) and compared it to that of IgG and IgM. We found that like IgM, IgA affected H99 cell size and morphology.

Mutations in this gene are implicated in syndromes involving premature ovarian failure and granulosa cell tumors (GCTs). This rare cancer accounts for less than 5% of diagnosed ovarian cancers and is causally associated with the FOXL2 c.

View Article and Find Full Text PDFBinder jetting 3D printing is an additive manufacturing technique based on the creation of a part through the selective bonding of powder with an adhesive, followed by a sintering process at high temperature to densify the material and produce parts with acceptable properties. Due to the high initial porosity in the material after sintering, which is typically around 5%, post-sintering treatments are often required to increase the material density and enhance the mechanical and fatigue properties of the final component. This paper focuses on the study of the benefits of hot isostatic pressing (HIP) after sintering on the mechanical and fatigue properties of a binder jetting Ti-6Al-4V alloy.
