Epistemic scaffolding
In this paper, we introduce an epistemic scaffolding framework for understanding the nature of support for epistemic growth in science. Our framework distinguishes between two patterns of epistemic scaffolding: implicit and explicit. Implicit epistemic scaffolding encompasses support integrated into contexts, activities, discourse, or tools, exerting an unconscious influence on learners' epistemic thinking and practices. On the other hand, explic…

Absence of complement component 3 does not prevent classical pathway–mediated hemolysis
Complement component 3 (C3) is emerging as a potential therapeutic target. We studied complement-mediated hemolysis using normal and C3-depleted human sera, wild-type (WT) and C3-deficient rat sera, and WT and C3 knockout rat models. In all of the in vitro and in vivo experiments, we found that the loss of C3 did not prevent classical pathway–mediated hemolysis, but it did almost abolish alternative pathway–mediated hemolysis. Experiments using p…
