Several studies indicate that the number of similar sounding words that are activated during recognition is a powerful predictor of performance on auditory targets. Words with few competitors are processed more quickly and accurately than words with many competitors. In the present study, we examined the contribution of the competitor set size in determining the magnitude of the inhibitory priming effect. The data show that the priming effect is stronger when word targets have few competitors. This result supports the view of direct competition between lexical candidates.

Background: Immunologic measures have been studied as predictors of who will respond to standard antidepressants. Two previous, small studies of pretreatment leukocyte mRNA expression levels of the cytokines macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) and interleukin 1-beta (IL1-β) identified antidepressant treatment responders.
Methods: We tested these findings in 1,299 patients from the PRIME Care study, a multi-center pharmacogenetic depression treatment trial.

CLEC12B is a C-type lectin receptor involved in the inhibition of natural killers-mediated cytotoxicity. We have previously shown that CLEC12B is predominantly expressed on melanocytes, inhibits melanin production and pigmentation as well as proliferation of melanoma. To date, the role of CLEC12B in skin immunity is unknown.

Understanding the early interactions between plants and endophytes will contribute to a more systematic approach to enhancing endophyte-mediated effects on plant growth and environmental stress resistance. This study examined very early growth and ascorbate metabolism after seed treatment of with three different endophytes. The three endophytes used were pb1(Bapb1), (Ml) and SLB4 (SLB4).

Magnesium (Mg)-based alloys have been recognized as desirable biodegradable materials for orthopedic implants. However, their clinical application has been limited by rapid degradation rates, insufficient antibacterial and osteogenic-promotion properties. Herein, a MgF priming layer was first constructed on AZ31 surface.
