Novel markers for human T regulatory cells in healthy donors and cancer patients
… binds to Glycoprotein A Repetitions Predominant (GARP). Some FoxP3+ Tregs express Helios, a member of the Ikaros transcription factor family. The purpose of this study is to identify which of FoxP3+/-Helios+/- Tregs express GARP and LAP and to investigate if these receptors are vital markers for …

Ex Vivo Induction of Human Regulatory T Cells
… the LAP-TGF-beta binding transmembrane molecule GARP, functioning to tether TGF-beta to the cell surface. Additionally, we found that CD14+ CD36HI monocytes produce significantly higher levels of latent TGF-beta than other antigen presenting cell (APC) subsets. Notably, we demonstrated that CD14+ …

Observational Studies of Wave Disturbances in the Tropical Pacific and Their Relationship With Deep Cloud Activity (Global Atmospheric Research Program(garp), Fgge, Gate, Itcz, Spcz, Sst)
First GARP (Global Atmospheric Research Program) Global Experiment, Level III-b data and the outgoing longwave radiation data are used to investigate relationships between deep cloud activity and large-scale meteorological fields from May to September in 1979. Discussion is focused on the …

The Role of Vps54 in Drosophila melanogaster Neuronal Development and Age Progressive Neurodegeneration
… of the Golgi-associated retrograde protein (GARP) complex, which is involved in tethering endosome-derived vesicles to the trans-Golgi network (TGN). The “wobbler” mouse is the phenotypic result of a destabilizing point mutation in Vps54. This mutation causes neurodegeneration and is …

Ecological risk models for visceral leishmaniais [sic] in Bahia, Brazil and diagnosis of Trypanosoma cruzi infection in dogs in south central Louisiana
… the Genetic Algorithm for Rule-Set Prediction (GARP) and the growing degree day-water budget (GDD-WB) concept to predict the distribution and potential risk of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) in the State of Bahia, Brazil. The objective was to define the environmental suitability of the disease as …

Numerical Simulations of the Rapid Cyclogenesis Over Canada and Evolution of a Cold Front Observed on 25-26 April 1979 (sesame-Ave-Iii)
… used to achieve these objectives. FGGE (First GARP (Global Atmosphere Research Program) Global Experiment) level IIIb and IIb data were used as input and verification data for numerical simulations, and for a diagnostic study.

The redemptive imagination: The fiction of John Irving.
… The Water-Method Man, The World According to Garp, and The Hotel New Hampshire through to The Cider House Rules, A Prayer for Owen Meany, and A Son of the Circus. Irving's view of the intertextual relationship between the imagination, metafiction and morality evolves. In his later novels, …

Vps1, a Novel Recycling Factor For the Traffic of Early Endosome to Late Golgi
… to a mild defect in the retention of the GARP component Vps51 at the late Golgi, as well as a severe disruption of actin cables.

Revealed Preference Analysis Under Nontransitive Preferences
… Weak Generalized Axiom of Revealed Preference (WGARP), a condition weaker than GARP. The framework accommodates minor measurement and optimization errors, providing an approximate rationalization of WGARP. This method extends Varian (1982)'s framework by offering deeper insights into choices that …

The Behavioral and Neural Bases of Social Economic Decision-Making
… economic rationality (Monotonicity, WARP, and GARP). We find evidence for a causal role of the rTPJ in determining fairness preferences and economic rationality.

Structural and Functional Characterization of GAPR-1, a Mammalian Plant Pathogenesis-related Protein in Lipid-enriched Microdomains of the Golgi Complex
… the yeast two hybrid system, the interaction of GARP-1 with Nucleolin was confirmed and shown to be dependent on the most conserved amino acid residues in GAPR-1. The interaction between GAPR-1 and Nucleolin may represent a new mechanism of regulation of innate immunity in mammalian cells.

The Safety and Immunostimulatory Properties of Amorphous Silica Nanoparticles <10 nm in Diameter
… CD95 on CD4 and CD8 T cells, CD40L, FoxP3, LAP, GARP on CD4 T cells, and IFN-gamma production, but it did not induce T cell proliferation. The particles were found to activate T cells regardless of their antigenic specificity. Further investigations showed that nanosilica interacts with the T …

Multidimensional Spatial Characterization of Plant Invasions in 'El Pinacate y Gran Desierto de Altar' Biosphere Reserve
Invasive species are considered an agent of ecological change with more significant effects than global warming. Exotic plant invasions threaten biodiversity and ecosystem viability worldwide. Their effects in the Sonoran Desert ecosystems are a growing concern among ecologists and land managers. …

ECOLOGICAL NICHE MODELING AS A PREDICTIVE TOOL: ASIATIC FRESHWATER FISHES IN NORTH AMERICA
A major problem with invasive aquatic species is that they are almost impossible to eradicate once established. Hence, the best method to prevent establishment of such species is to assess their invasive potential proactively and respond appropriately. After introduction, the most effective way is …
