A plethora of enhancements are available to be used together with the αβ search algorithm. There are so many, that their selection and implementation is a non-trivial task, even for the expert. Every domain has its specifics which affect the search tree Even seemingly minute changes to an evaluation function can have an impact on the characteristics of a search tree. In turn, different tree cha...

Hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma (HSTCL) is a rare and aggressive extranodal T-cell lymphoma that comprises <5% of peripheral T-cell lymphomas. The majority of cases harbor the γδ T-cell receptor (TCR), but recently, a few cases have been shown to express the αβ TCR. Comparison of these two subtypes (αβ and γδ) shows similar clinicopathologic and cytogenetic features; however, due to the paucity o...

We consider all the dimension 6 operators as well as some simple extensions of the standard model that give new contributions to neutrino interactions with matter. Such interactions are usually parametrized by αβ , where α and β are neutrino flavor indices taking the values e, μ and τ . In the simple models we consider the αβ ’s are much more constrained than in the operatorbased model-independ...

Over the past decade a number of results concerning the relationship between causality and various energy concepts such as losslessness, passivity, and stability have been obtained [l][4] for linear networks. For nonlinear networks, however, no analogous results have been established except for the case of weakly additive networks [S], [6], wherein the linear theory holds without modification.’...

Several types of immune-cell therapies, such as αβ T-cell, γδ T-cell, and dendritic cell (DC) vaccine therapies, are clinically employed for cancer treatment. The safety of immune-cell therapy for the treatment of patients with malignancies should be maintained by continuous assessment of adverse events. In the present study, we surveyed the adverse events associated with immune-cell therapy us...

A family of transcription factors known as E proteins, and their antagonists, Id proteins, regulate T cell differentiation at critical developmental checkpoints. Id proteins promote the differentiation of conventional αβ T cells and suppress the expansion of innate-like αβ T cells known as invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells. However, it remains to be determined whether Id proteins differen...

Human NAD-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase existing as the α2βγ heterotetramer, catalyzes the decarboxylation of isocitrate into α-ketoglutarate in the Krebs cycle, and is allosterically regulated by citrate, ADP and ATP. To explore the functional roles of the regulatory β and γ subunits, we systematically characterized the enzymatic properties of the holoenzyme and the composing αβ and αγ he...

T-cells play an important role controlling immunity against pathogens and therefore influence the outcome of human diseases. Although most T-lymphocytes co-express either CD4 or CD8, a smaller T-cell subset found the in the human peripheral blood that expresses the αβ or γδ T-cell-receptor (TCR) lacks the CD4 and CD8 co-receptors. These double negative (DN) T-cells have been shown to display im...

The aim of this paper is the study of a covering of a max-mingeneral fuzzy automaton by another, admissible relations, admissiblepartitions of a max-min general fuzzy automaton,$tilde{delta}$-orthogonality of admissible partitions, irreduciblemax-min general fuzzy automata. Then we obtain the relationshipsbetween them.
