The adaptive immune response plays a vital role in eliminating infected and aberrant cells from the body. This process hinges on the presentation of short peptides by major histocompatibility complex Class I molecules on the cell surface. Immunopeptidomics, the study of peptides displayed on cells, delves into the wide variety of these peptides.

These results represent the first measurements of the Λ multiplicity ratio and transverse momentum broadening as a function of the energy fraction (z) in the current and target fragmentation regions.

A holistic view of cancer-which is critical for precision medicine approaches-hinges on integrating a variety of heterogeneous data sources under a cohesive knowledge model, a role which biomedical ontologies can fill. This study reviews the application of ontologies and knowledge graphs in cancer research.

If this is true, then hyperon-nucleon interactions will play a significant part in the neutron star equation of state. Yet, compared to other elastic scattering processes, there is very little data on Λ-N scattering.
