Generation of new peptide-Fc fusion proteins that mediate antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity against different types of cancer cells.

Molecular therapy. Methods & clinical development

Sioud M, Westby P, Olsen JK, Mobergslien A.
PMID: 26605373
Mol Ther Methods Clin Dev. 2015 Nov 04;2:15043. doi: 10.1038/mtm.2015.43. eCollection 2015.

Antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), a key effector function for the clinical effectiveness of monoclonal antibodies, is triggered by the engagement of the antibody Fc domain with the Fcγ receptors expressed by innate immune cells such as natural killer (NK)...

Components of variation in seedling potential relative growth rate: phylogenetically independent contrasts.

Oecologia

Saverimuttu T, Westoby M.
PMID: 28307099
Oecologia. 1996 Feb;105(3):281-285. doi: 10.1007/BF00328729.

Variation between species in seedling potential relative growth rate (RGR) is among the most important spectra of plant adaptation. Investigations are reported into the components responsible for this variation, using phylogenetically independent contrasts (PICs). The two species for each...

The Time Value of Leaf Area.

The American naturalist

Westoby M, Warton D, Reich PB.
PMID: 10777437
Am Nat. 2000 May;155(5):649-656. doi: 10.1086/303346.

When a plant invests in construction of a leaf, the revenue-stream that accrues is shaped by three variables: first, the light-capture area per milligram dry mass invested, analogous to a potential rate of return on investment; second, the longevity...

Seed Mass and the Evolution of Early-Seedling Etiolation.

The American naturalist

Ganade G, Westoby M.
PMID: 10523492
Am Nat. 1999 Oct;154(4):469-480. doi: 10.1086/303245.

The influence of seed mass on the evolution of seedling-foraging strategies for light acquisition under deep shade was assessed in a comparative study of etiolation behavior. This was done across 50 Australian species varying in seed reserve mass by...

Assessing toxicity and mobilisation of impregnation salts at a contaminated site.

Analytical and bioanalytical chemistry

Andersen S, Rasmussen G, Snilsberg P, Amundsen CE, Westby T.
PMID: 15067470
Anal Bioanal Chem. 1996 Mar;354(5):676-80. doi: 10.1007/s0021663540676.

Severe soil contamination is often encountered at wood-impregnation plants due to spills, dripping and deposition of sludge associated with dissolved salts of copper, chromium and arsenic (CCA). Soil samples from a CCA-plant in southern Norway were analysed via a...

Phosphatidylinositol as a Component of the Ice Nucleating Site of Pseudomonas syringae and Erwinia herbiola.

Science (New York, N.Y.)

Kozloff LM, Lute M, Westaway D.
PMID: 17759892
Science. 1984 Nov 16;226(4676):845-6. doi: 10.1126/science.226.4676.845.

Phosphatidylinositol has been identified as a major component of the ice nucleating site on the outer surface of two bacteria, Pseudomonas syringae and Erwinia herbicola. Plant lectins binding to inositol and a highly purified phosphatidylinositol-specific hydrolase (a C(II) lipase)...

Psychology and social networks: a dynamic network theory perspective.

The American psychologist

Westaby JD, Pfaff DL, Redding N.
PMID: 24750076
Am Psychol. 2014 Apr;69(3):269-84. doi: 10.1037/a0036106.

Research on social networks has grown exponentially in recent years. However, despite its relevance, the field of psychology has been relatively slow to explain the underlying goal pursuit and resistance processes influencing social networks in the first place. In...

Abundance of macrofauna in dense seagrass is due to habitat preference, not predation.

Oecologia

Bell JD, Westoby M.
PMID: 28310128
Oecologia. 1986 Jan;68(2):205-209. doi: 10.1007/BF00384788.

Two main hypotheses compete to explain why prey abundance decreases when seagrass density is reduced. One proposes that predators are more successful amongst seagrass of lower density; the other invokes habitat choice by prey. We reduced the density of...
