Positronium Laser Cooling via the 1^{3}S-2^{3}P Transition with a Broadband Laser Pulse.

We report on laser cooling of a large fraction of positronium (Ps) in free flight by strongly saturating the 1^{3}S-2^{3}P transition with a broadband, long-pulsed 243 nm alexandrite laser. The ground state Ps cloud is produced in a magnetic and electric field-free environment. We observe two different laser-induced effects.

Determination of the role of specific amino acids in the binding of Zn(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) to the active site of the M10 family metallopeptidase.

Metallopeptidases are a group of metal-dependent enzymes that hydrolyze peptide bonds. These enzymes found in Streptococcus pneumoniae assist the pathogen in infecting the host by breaking down host tissues and extracellular matrix proteins. Considering metallopeptidases' significant role in bacterial virulence, inhibiting this enzyme represents a promising avenue for research.

Prognostic Impact of Copy Number Alterations' Profile and AID/RAG Signatures in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) with BCR::ABL and without Recurrent Genetic Aberrations (NEG ALL) Treated with Intensive Chemotherapy.

Adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is associated with poor outcomes. ALL is initiated by primary aberrations, but secondary genetic lesions are necessary for overt ALL. In this study, we reassessed the value of primary and secondary aberrations in intensively treated ALL patients in relation to mutator enzyme expression.
