B lymphocytes: how they develop and function.
The discovery that lymphocyte subpopulations participate in distinct components of the immune response focused attention onto the origins and function of lymphocytes more than 40 years ago. Studies in the 1960s and 1970s demonstrated that B and T lymphocytes were responsible primarily for the basic functions of antibody production and cell-mediated immune responses, respectively. The decades th...

Children learn language from what they hear. In dispute is what mechanisms they bring to this task. Clearly some of these mechanisms have evolved to support the human speech capacity but this leaves a wide field of possibilities open. The question I will address in my paper is whether we need to postulate an innate syntactic module that has evolved to make the learning of language structure pos...

متن کاملHow Many are they and How Do they live?
This paper attempts to define the common people of India in terms of levels of consumption and examines their socio-economic profile in different periods of time since the early 1990s with a view to assessing how the economic growth process has impacted on their lives. The findings should worry everyone. Despite high growth, more than three-fourths of Indians are poor and vulnerable with a leve...
متن کاملB and T lymphocytes: quantitation, function, and clinical applicability.
Methodologies for T and B lymphocyte quantitation, lymphocyte blast transformation (LBT) and carbohydrate (CHO) metabolism are important for assessing host lymphocyte response in the clinical laboratory. Modifications of methods for each of these techniques are presented. Results from studies of normal ambulatory adults, patients with diabetes mellitus, sickle cell disease and hyperlipidemia ar...
