abstract：:Lymphocyte homeostasis is the result of a critical balance between cell proliferation and death. Disruption of this subtle equilibrium can lead to the onset of leukemia, an increase in the number of lymphocytes being potentially due to both of these parameters. The relative importance of cell proliferation vs. apoptos...

Here, we show that competing predator species may not only coexist on a single prey but even help each other to persist if they specialize on ...
