Checkpoint blockade therapy targeting the programmed-death ligand 1 (PD-L1) and its
receptor programmed cell death 1 promotes T-cell-mediated immunosurveillance against …

Programmed death 1 (PD-1) and its two natural ligands PD-L1 and PD-L2 are responsible
for delivering inhibitory signals that regulate the balance between T cell activation, tolerance, …

Expression of programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) ligand 1 (PD-L1) protects tumor cells from T
cell–mediated immune surveillance, and immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapies …

Social deficit is a core clinical feature of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) but the underlying
neural mechanisms remain largely unclear. We demonstrate that structural and functional …

Circular dichroism (CD) is a non-destructive and powerful technique for providing structure
and ligand interaction information of small molecules as well as biotechnological medicines. …

Purpose of Review. Transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block is a regional technique for
