Archibald Henry Sayce (1845–1933) and the Transition from 19th-Century Comparative Philology to 20th-Century General Linguistics by Subbiondo Joseph L., Kilarski Marcin

“…We focus on Archibald Henry Sayce’s (1845–1933) Principles of Comparative Philology (1893) because it anticipated general linguistics, and because the book and its author have been overlooked despite their relevance to the history of linguistics. However, as the author of several works on the languages, literatures, and religions of the Ancient Near East, Sayce was regarded as one of the most erudite scholars of his time. …”

Parity and post-reproductive mortality among U.S. Black and White women: Evidence from the health and retirement study. by Cheryl Elman, Angela M O'Rand, Andrew S London

“…Population health research finds women's mortality risk associated with childlessness, low parity (one child), and high parity (6+ children) in a U-shaped pattern, although U.S. studies are inconsistent overall and by race/ethnicity. Parity, however, is contingent on women's biophysiological likelihood of (in)fecundity as well as voluntary control practices that limit fertility. …”

Effect of Bio MTA plus & ProRoot MTA pulp capping materials on the regenerative properties of human dental pulp stem cells by Khaled Mohamed Ayoub, Mohamed Mokhtar Nagy, Riham Mohamed Aly, Ghada Nour El Deen, Karim El-Batouty

“…Bio MTA + offers significant advantages in terms of biocompatibility, bioactivity, and regenerative potential, making it an excellent choice for procedures aimed at preserving or regenerating dental pulp tissue. However, additional research is required to address the lack of in vivo validation, as replicating physiological conditions is crucial for accurately assessing clinical outcomes and comparing them with results obtained from in vitro experiments.…”

Protein tyrosine phosphatase delta is a STAT3-phosphatase and suppressor of metabolic liver disease by Thomas F Baumert, Charlotte Bach, Patrick Pessaux, Catherine Schuster, Frank Jühling, Sarah C Durand, Yujin Hoshida, Fabien Zoulim, Atish Mukherji, Naoto Fujiwara, Marine A Oudot, Armando Andres Roca Suarez, Michel L Tremblay, Barbara Testoni, Joachim Lupberger, Romain Parent, Laurent Mailly, Nassim Dali-Youcef, Emanuele Felli, Maria Saez-Palma, Julien Moehlin, Alessia Virzì, Nicolas Brignon, Eugenie Schaeffer, Romain Martin, Laura Meiss-Heydmann, Zakaria Boulahtouf, Lea Girard, Emma Osswald, Carole Jamey, Daniel Brumaru, Bhuvaneswari Koneru

“…Objective Impaired hepatic expression of protein tyrosine phosphatase delta (PTPRD) is associated with increased STAT3 transcriptional activity and reduced survival from hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus infection. However, the PTPRD-expressing hepatic cell types, signalling pathways responsive to PTPRD and their role in non-viral liver disease are largely unknown.Methods We studied PTPRD expression in single-cell and bulk liver transcriptomic data from mice and humans, and established a Ptprd-deficient mouse model for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). …”

Inflamed immune phenotype predicts favorable clinical outcomes of immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy across multiple cancer types by Jeanne Shen, Sergio Pereira, Chan-Young Ock, Yung-Jue Bang, Seulki Kim, Sehhoon Park, Se-Hoon Lee, George A Fisher, Young Kwang Chae, Yoon-La Choi, Jin-Haeng Chung, Tony S K Mok, Leeseul Kim, Jun-Eul Hwang, Gahee Park, Sanghoon Song, Seunghwan Shin, Yoojoo Lim, Wonkyung Jung, Heon Song, Hyojin Kim, Taebum Lee, Sukjun Kim, Chang Ho Ahn, Seokhwi Kim, Ben W Dulken, Stephanie Bogdan, Maggie Huang, Chiyoon Oum, Siraj M. Ali

“…Background The inflamed immune phenotype (IIP), defined by enrichment of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) within intratumoral areas, is a promising tumor-agnostic biomarker of response to immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy. However, it is challenging to define the IIP in an objective and reproducible manner during manual histopathologic examination. …”
