Global Magnetic Reconnection During Sustained Sub‐Alfvénic Solar Wind Driving by B. L. Burkholder, L.‐J. Chen, M. Sarantos, D. J. Gershman, M. R. Argall, Y. Chen, C. Dong, Victoria Wilder, O. Le Contel, H. Gurram

“…The key feature setting the Alfvén wing reconnection apart from the typical Dungey‐type is that the majority of new magnetospheric flux is added to the polar cap at local times 1–3 (21‐23) in the northern (southern) hemisphere. During most of the sub‐Alfvénic interval, reconnection mapping to midnight in the polar cap generates relatively little new magnetospheric flux.…”

ITGAV as a promising diagnostic, immunological, and prognostic biomarker in pan-cancer by Hanyang Su, Jie Wang, Xinyu Cao, Xiangqian Zhang, Huajun Zhang, Xiaojin Liu

“…We further explored ITGAV’s correlation with immune cell infiltration and immune-related genes, its predictive role in immunotherapy response based on immunophenoscore (IPS), and its drug-binding potential through molecular docking. (1) ITGAV was significantly overexpressed in multiple cancer types including LIHC, COAD, and STAD. (2) ROC analysis confirmed its strong diagnostic value, particularly in HNSC, UCEC, and ESCA. (3) High ITGAV expression was associated with poorer survival outcomes in most cancers, while a protective role was observed in KIRC. (4) ITGAV expression was positively correlated with immune cell infiltration and co-expressed with immune-activating and immunosuppressive genes. (5) The expression level of ITGAV correlates with the IPS score, suggesting its predictive value for the benefit of immunotherapy. (6) Molecular docking identified strong binding affinities between ITGAV and six candidate compounds, including gemcitabine and pioglitazone. …”
