This paper reviews animal treading and the associated effects on soil physical properties and
pasture productivity from treading-induced soil compaction and pugging. Response curve …

High levels of interleukin 6 (IL 6/B cell stimulatory factor‐2) were detected in synovial fluids
from the joints of patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The cells found in freshly …

Cytokines are protein mediators that play a part in inflammation, the immune response, cell
growth, repair, and fibrosis. All of these are continuing processes in active rheumatoid …

In rheumatoid arthritis there is a chronic immune and inflammatory reaction which can lead
to the destruction of the diseased joint. Cytokine gene expression was studied in synovial …

Soil hydraulic properties are subject to temporal changes as a response to both tillage and
natural impact factors. As the temporal and spatial variability might exceed cultivation-…

Soil aggregation is influenced by the tillage system used, which in turn affects the amount of
C and N in the different aggregate fractions. This study assessed the impact of different …

China's two decades of rapid economic growth have fueled a demand for energy that has
outstripped domestic sources of supply. China became a net oil importer in 1993, and the …

The adaptor molecule stimulator of IFN genes (STING) is central to production of type I IFNs
in response to infection with DNA viruses and to presence of host DNA in the cytosol. …

Nitro-fatty acids (NO 2 -FA) are pleiotropic modulators of redox signaling pathways. Their
effects on inflammatory signaling have been studied in great detail in cell, animal and clinical …

We investigated a relatively unexplored area of soil science: the fitting of parameterized
models to particle‐size distribution (a subject more thoroughly explored in sedimentology). …
