Breast cancer cells and bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells by Faour, Wissam H.

“…Co-cultures with either MG-63 cells or MSCs induced OPG and MMP-2 in both tumor cell lines. Interestingly, conditioned medium from co-cultures of MSCs and MDA-MB-231 cells significantly decreased the proliferation of activated T lymphocytes which was reversed by addition of anti-OPG antibodies to the co-cultures. …”

Doppler broadening spectroscopy of carbon black and carbon black-filled rubbers by Semaan, Mars E.

“…This is due to (1) reduction in positronium formation as carbon black is added to the rubber, and (2) positron trapping at the carbon black–rubber interface, which depends on the carbon black morphology. The S parameter decreases with the carbon black surface area. The S parameter does not depend on the sample mixing time.…”

Slater to Mott Crossover in the Metal to Insulator Transition of Nd2⁢Ir2⁢O7 by Nakayama, M.

“…Upon cooling below the transition temperature, this compound exhibits a gap opening with an energy shift of quasiparticle peaks like a band gap insulator. The quasiparticle peaks are strongly suppressed, however, with further decrease of temperature, and eventually vanish at the lowest temperature, leaving a nondispersive flat band lacking long-lived electrons. …”
