Immune complex deposition promotes NK cell accumulation in the kidney.

In systemic lupus erythematosus, immune complexes deposited in the kidney vasculature represent a potent inflammatory trigger with a high potential to progress to glomerulonephritis and organ failure. These immune complexes can be recognized by multiple effector cells via complement and Fcγ receptors. The transcriptome of CD16-bearing NK cells has been documented in kidneys from patients with SLE.

assessment of neuroinflammatory cytokines in different stages of ovine natural prion disease.

Introduction: According to the neuroinflammatory hypothesis, a cytokine-mediated host innate immune response may be involved in the mechanisms that contribute to the process of neurodegeneration. Specifically, regarding prion diseases, some experimental murine models have evidenced an altered profile of inflammatory intermediaries. However, the local inflammatory response has rarely been assessed, and never in tissues from different natural models throughout the progression of neurodegeneration.

Explosion Detection Using Smartphones: Ensemble Learning with the Smartphone High-Explosive Audio Recordings Dataset and the ESC-50 Dataset.

Explosion monitoring is performed by infrasound and seismoacoustic sensor networks that are distributed globally, regionally, and locally. However, these networks are unevenly and sparsely distributed, especially at the local scale, as maintaining and deploying networks is costly. With increasing interest in smaller-yield explosions, the need for more dense networks has increased.
