Unmasking of CD22 on germinal center B-cells occurs by alternative mechanisms in mouse and man
Download2015
McBride, Ryan, Wang, Shui-Hua , Macauley, Matthew S., Khoo, Kay-Hooi, Paulson, James C., Kannagi, Reiji, Peng, Wenjie, He, Yuan, Kawasaki, Norihito, Arlian, Britni M.
CD22 is an inhibitory B-cell co-receptor whose function is modulated by sialic acid (Sia)-bearing glycan ligands. Glycan remodeling in the germinal center (GC) alters CD22 ligands, with as yet no ascribed biological consequence. Here, we show in both mice and humans that loss of high affinity...

Within our field, and more widely, there is a way of thinking that equates effective teaching with effective entertaining. This way of thinking can be referred to as a “discourse of edutainment.” It underpins some of the publications and conversations that encourage librarians to make their...

Unregulated provider perceptions of audit and feedback reports in long-term care: Cross-sectional survey findings from a quality improvement intervention.
Download2013
Baylon, M. A., Fraser, K. D., Bostrom, A. M., Sales, A. E., Rourke, H. M.
Audit with feedback is a moderately effective approach for improving professional practice in other health care settings. Although unregulated caregivers give the majority of direct care in long-term care settings, little is known about how they understand and perceive feedback reports because...

Unusual Electronic Properties of Cellulose Nanocrystals Conjugated to Cobalt Phthalocyanine: Long-Lived Charge Separation and Visible-Light-Driven Photocatalytic Activity
Download2022-09-15
Octacarboxylated cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc) was covalently conjugated to cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) by employing an esterification protocol. Solid-state NMR, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman, and infrared spectra were used to verify and study the nature of covalent attachment...

Unusual predation attempts of polar bears on ringed seals in the southern beaufort sea: Possible significance of changing spring ice conditions
Download2008
Richardson, E., Stirling, I., Thiemann, G.W., Derocher, A.E.
In April and May 2003 through 2006, unusually rough and rafted sea ice extended for several tens of kilometres offshore in the southeastern Beaufort Sea from about Atkinson Point to the Alaska border. Hunting success of polar bears (Ursus maritimus) seeking seals was low despite extensive...

Unveiling trade-offs in resource selection of migratory caribou using a mechanistic movement model of availability
Download2015-01-01
Guillaume, Bastille-Rousseau, Jonathan R., Potts, James A., Schaefer, Mark A., Lewis, Hance E., Ellington, Nathaniel D., Rayl, Shane P., Mahoney, Dennis L., Murray
Habitat selection is a multi-level, hierarchical process that should be a key component in the balance between food acquisition and predation risk avoidance (food–predation trade-off). However, to date, studies have not fully elucidated how fine- and broad-scale habitat decisions by individual...

Soltanieh, Amir, Macciotta, Renato
The Thompson River valley is one of the most important transportation corridors in western Canada as it hosts two important railways. This valley has experienced several historical landslide events, many of them along a 10 km section south of the town of Ashcroft. Six of these landslides, showing...
