TL;DR: Two hinges in the rod segment, together with the reversible unfolding of single repeats, might be the structural basis for the intrinsic flexibility of the actin networks generated by filamins.

TL;DR: The role of T cell–derived IL-10 in the regulation of Tcell responses is addressed and it is demonstrated that endotoxic shock and the irritant response of the skin are controlled byIL-10 from other cell types.
Abstract: Interleukin (IL)-10 is a regulator of inflammatory responses and is secreted by a variety of different cell types including T cells. T regulatory cells have been shown to suppress immune responses by IL-10-dependent, but also IL-10-independent, mechanisms. Herein, we address the role of T cell-derived IL-10 in mice with an inactivation of the IL-10 gene restricted to T cells generated by Cre/loxP-mediated targeting of the IL-10 gene. Splenocytes from this T cell-specific mutant secrete increased amounts of proinflammatory cytokines after activation in vitro compared with show enhanced contact hypersensitivity reactions, and succumb to severe immunopathology upon infection with Toxoplasma gondii. Despite intact IL-10 genes in other cell types, the dysregulation of T cell responses observed in the T cell-specific IL-10 mutant closely resembles the phenotype in complete IL-10 deficiency. However, in contrast to complete IL-10 deficiency, sensitivity to endotoxic shock and irritant responses of the skin are not enhanced in the T cell-specific IL-10 mutant. Our data highlight the importance of T cell-derived IL-10 in the regulation of T cell responses and demonstrate that endotoxic shock and the irritant response of the skin are controlled by IL-10 from other cell types.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented new Hf-W data for seven carbonaceous chondrites, five eucrites, and three shergottites, and showed that mantle differentiation in the eucrite parent body (Vesta) occurred at 4563.2 ± 1.4 Ma and suggest that core formation took place 0.9 ± 0.3 Myr before mantle differentiation.

TL;DR: The Streptophyta/Chlorophyta divergence correlates with a remarkably conservative preference for freshwater/marine habitats, and the early freshwater adaptation of streptophyte algae was a major advantage for the earliest land plants, even before the origin of the embryo and the sporophyte generation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the Voronoi method is used to resolve the fine structure of the resulting velocity-density relations and spatial dependence of the measurements, and the results show that the specific flow concept is applicable also for bidirectional streams.
Abstract: Experiments under laboratory conditions were carried out to study the ordering in bidirectional pedestrian streams and its influence on the fundamental diagram (density–speed–flow relation). The Voronoi method is used to resolve the fine structure of the resulting velocity–density relations and spatial dependence of the measurements. The data show that the specific flow concept is applicable also for bidirectional streams. For various forms of ordering in bidirectional streams, no large differences among density–flow relationships are found in the observed density range. The fundamental diagrams of bidirectional streams with different forms of ordering are compared with those of unidirectional streams. The result shows differences in the shape of the relation for ρ > 1.0 m − 2. The maximum of the specific flow in unidirectional streams is significantly larger than that in all bidirectional streams examined.
