The Mckinnon-Shaw Hypothesis, in its’ various forms, is now thirty years old. Over that period literally hundreds of empirical studies have been completed examining the hypothesis in many different contexts. Initially, the hypothesis focused on the effects of so-called “Financial Repression” (low or negative real interest rates) on savings and investment levels in developing countries. In more ...

Intense immune responses are observed during human or experimental infection with the digenetic protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi. The reasons why such immune responses are unable to completely eliminate the parasites are unknown. The survival of the parasite leads to a parasite-host equilibrium found during the chronic phase of chagasic infection in most individuals. Parasite persistence is...

A hypothesis is proposed on a potential role of protein dielectricity as an unfolding factor in protein-protein interactions. It is suggested that large protein complexes and aggregation seeds can unfold target proteins by virtue of their effect on the dielectric properties of water at the protein-solvent interface. Here, similar to the effect of membrane surfaces, protein surface can cause dec...
