When is a function a fold or an unfold? (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gibbons, J., Hutton, G., & Altenkirch, T. (2001). When is a function a fold or an unfold?.

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for when a set-theoretic function can be written using the recursion operator fold, and a dual condition for the recursion operator unfold. The conditions are simple, practically useful, and generic in the... Read More about When is a function a fold or an unfold?.

Camping in the digital wilderness: Tents and flashlights as interfaces to virtual worlds (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Green, J., Schnädelbach, H., Koleva, B., Benford, S., Pridmore, T., Medina, K., …Smith, H. (2001, April). Camping in the digital wilderness: Tents and flashlights as interfaces to virtual worlds. Paper presented at Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems - Proceedings

A projection screen in the shape of a tent provides children with a shared immersive experience of a virtual world based on the metaphor of camping. RFID aerials at its entrances sense tagged children and objects as they enter and leave. Video tracki...

Human T cell subset commitment determined by the intrinsic property of antigen: The proteolytic activity of the major mite allergen Der p 1 conditions T cells to produce more IL-4 and less IFN-γ (2001)
Journal Article

The house dust mite Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus allergen Der p 1 elicits IgE antibody responses in a significant proportion of patients suffering from dust mite allergy. We have recently shown that Der p 1 proteolytically cleaves a cell surface mo...

Inhabited television takes traditional broadcast television and combines it with multiuser virtual reality to give new possibilities for interaction and participation in and around shows or channels. Out of This World was an experimental inhabited TV... Read More about Patterns of Network and User Activity in an Inhabited Television Event.

Human defensin 5 is stored in precursor form in normal Paneth cells and is expressed by some villous epithelial cells and by metaplastic Paneth cells in the colon in inflammatory bowel disease (2001)
Journal Article

Background and aims - Intestinal epithelial cell derived antimicrobial peptides of the defensin family may play a major role in host defence against microorganisms. Our aims were to (i) isolate, characterise, and investigate the processing of human d...

Oestrogen and progesterone increase the levels of apoptosis induced by the human papillomavirus type 16 E2 and E7 proteins (2001)
Journal Article
Webster, K., Taylor, A., & Gaston, K. (2001). Oestrogen and progesterone increase the levels of apoptosis induced by the human papillomavirus type 16 E2 and E7 proteins. Journal of General Virology, 82(1), 201-213. https://doi.org/10.1099/0022-1317-82-1-201

Human papillomavirus (HPV) type 16 infects the genital tract and is generally acknowledged to be a causative agent of cervical cancer. HPV infection alone is not sufficient to induce cervical cancer and other factors such as steroid hormones are thou...

The campaign against thuggee in 1830s India produced a set of widely-circulated accounts of the origins and practices of thugs. In these works (both popular and scholarly), a very small amount of primary information was continually recycled throughou... Read More about The travels of M. de Thévenot through the thug archive.

Angiogenesis in the pathogenesis of inflammatory joint and lung diseases (2001)
Journal Article
Walsh, D., & Pearson, C. (2001). Angiogenesis in the pathogenesis of inflammatory joint and lung diseases

This paper reviews hypotheses about roles of angiogenesis in the pathogenesis of inflammatory disease in two organs, the synovial joint and the lung. Neovascularisation is a fundamental process for growth and tissue repair after injury. Nevertheless,... Read More about Angiogenesis in the pathogenesis of inflammatory joint and lung diseases.
