Abstract:
Abstract This article examines Timothy Crick's notion of the game body, thinking beyond the visuality that defines cinematic “film body,” an embodied subject–object that mediates the sensation of a film to the viewer. Examining Silent Hill 2, a game that resists legibility and indexicality, this article argues that the “game body” is mediated through substances. Silent Hill 2’s uncanny appeal to place memory demonstrates that there is an ontological distinction between the player's body and the game body, requiring a degree of translation to the experience of sensing virtual space.

Abstract:
This paper investigates the question of aurality in Beckett's narrative and radiophonic works of the early sixties. It focuses on and its English translation , considered here as a central work in Beckett's intermedial practice of hybridisation between genres and media. At the cross-roads between a novel and a radio play, between written and spoken word, enacts the performance of the reader as a silent listener. Corporality and language overlap in the text as the novel builds up the metaphor of the human body as a medium.

Abstract:
Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) are key components of the translation machinery. They read codons on messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and deliver the appropriate amino acid to the ribosome for protein synthesis. The human genome encodes more than 500 tRNA genes but their individual contribution to the cellular tRNA pool is unclear. In recent years, novel methods were developed to improve the quantification of tRNA gene expression, most of which rely on next-generation sequencing such as small RNA-Seq applied to tRNAs (tRNA-Seq). In a previous study, we presented a bioinformatics strategy to analyse tRNA-Seq datas

We explore the strategic value of quantity forcing contracts in a manufacturer-retailer environment under both adverse selection and moral hazard. Manufacturers dealing with (exclusive) competing retailers may prefer to leave contracts silent on retail prices, whenever other aspects of the retailers' activity remain nonverifiable. Two effects are at play when moving from retail price maintenance to quantity forcing. First, restricting screening possibilities may increase retailers' rent. Second, such a restriction affects downstream competition. This latter effect may justify using quantity fo

Abstract:
Abstract The CD4 and CD8 molecules play an important role in the stimulation of T cells and in the process of thymic education. Most mature T cells express the alpha beta TCR and either CD4 or CD8; however, there is a small population of alpha beta+ TCR T cells that lack both CD4 and CD8. Little is known of the biology of the CD4- CD8- (double-negative) alpha beta+ TCR T cells or the nature of the Ag to which they may respond. These cells not only represent a novel population of T cells but also provide useful biologic tools to study the roles that CD4 and CD8 play in T cell activation. In thi

Abstract:
In That Long Silence, Deshpande portrays the life of Jaya, an educated, married writer. As a writer, she should be able to use her thinking and analytical skills to show the problems and contradictions in society in her writing. However, this does not happen for several reasons. She has to surrender to family and societal pressures. Not being able to say or write what she feels like saying or writing, she is forced to write what patriarchal society wants to read or hear. Even though she is educated, she remains silent against the injustices that have befallen her. Not only Jaya but also the ot

Abstract:
Women have internalized their subjugation, often perceiving suffering at the hands of men as their inevitable fate. Their existence is often reduced to fulfilling prescribed roles&mdash;as mothers, wives, daughters, or sisters&mdash;defined solely by duties and responsibilities imposed by societal norms. Within this framework, women experience a profound loss of individual identity, their personhood overshadowed by the roles they are expected to play. The roots of patriarchy run so deep that dismantling it is a monumental task, one that will require years of collective effort. However, literat

Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is associated with the development of postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) in piglets. We demonstrate here that 80 to 90% of monocyte-derived and bone marrow-derived DCs interact with PCV2 similar to the early stages of an infection. There was no evidence for virus replication, but the virus did persist in DCs without loss of infectivity nor the induction of cell death. This could reflect an abortive infec

The aromatic ‘key’ residue not only inserts into a hydrophobic pocket, the ‘lock’, of the neighbouring subunit, but also acts as part of the ‘lock’ for the other subunit ‘key’. The ‘key’ residues from both subunits show aromatic ring stacking wit

Evolving evidence shows that immune cell-derived EVs can modulate the immune system in a paracrine fashion and therefore may mediate the effects of inflammation in the pathogenesis of HTN.

To investigate whether genetic mutations play a role in the activation of JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway in DLBCL, we sequenced the coding regions of the JAK2 gene and found no novel missense mutations.

Abstract Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has a 5-year survival rate of only 11%. Current treatments that mostly target the cancer cells themselves, have not been able to significantly improve survival rates, meaning there is an urgent need for novel therapies. PDAC is unique among solid tumors because it exhibits extensive desmoplasia that is characterized by an abundance of extracellular matrix (ECM) components. In recent years, an increasing body of work has shown that cancer tissue is stiffer than normal tissue by a factor of 3 or more. This change in ECM stiffness has been shown to

Sensory afferent transmission and associated spinal reflexes are normally inhibited by serotonin (5-HT) derived from the brain stem. Spinal cord injury (SCI) that eliminates this 5-HT innervation leads to a disinhibition of sensory transmission and a consequent emergence of unusually long polysynaptic excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs) in motoneurons. These EPSPs play a critical role in triggering long polysynaptic reflexes (LPRs) that initiate muscles spasms. In the present study we examined which 5-HT receptors modulate the EPSPs and whether these receptors adapt to a loss of 5-HT af

Similarly, movements involuntarily triggered via a startling acoustic stimulus (SAS) are believed to receive greater reticular input than voluntary movements.

Thus, we analyzed the miRNA expression patterns in milk exosomes during estrus and the effect of milk exosomes on hormone secretion in cultured bovine granulosa cells in vitro.
