# Decoy receptor 3

Decoy receptor 3 (Dcr3), also known as tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 6B (TNFRSF6B), TR6 and M68, is a soluble protein of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily which inhibits Fas ligand-induced apoptosis.

## Discovery

Dcr3 was identified in 1998 by the search of genes with homology to the TNFR gene superfamily in expressed sequence tag (EST) database.

## Structure

The open reading frame of TNFRSF6B encodes 300 amino acids with a 29-residue signal sequence and four tandem cystein-rich repeats. Two transcript variants encoding the same isoform, but differing in the 5' UTR, have been observed for this gene. Unlike most of the other members of TNFR superfamily, TNFRSF6 is a soluble protein which contains no transmembrane domain.

## Function

This gene belongs to the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily. It acts as a decoy receptor that competes with death receptors for ligand binding. The encoded protein is postulated to play a regulatory role in suppressing FasL- and LIGHT-mediated cell death and T cell activation as well as to induce angiogenesis via neutralization of TL1A. Overexpression of this gene has been noted in various tumors e.g. gastrointestinal tract tumors, and it is located in a gene-rich cluster on chromosome 20, with other potentially tumor-related genes.

## Interactions

TNFRSF6B has been shown to interact with:
* TNFSF14
* Fas ligand.

# 163rd Regiment Royal Armoured Corps

The 163rd Regiment Royal Armoured Corps (163 RAC) was a short-lived armoured regiment of the British Army's Royal Armoured Corps that served in India during World War II.

## Origin

163 RAC was formed by the conversion to the armoured role of the 13th Battalion, Sherwood Foresters, a hostilities-only battalion raised in 1940, on 30 July 1942, the day after it arrived in India. In common with other infantry battalions transferred to the Royal Armoured Corps, the personnel of 163 RAC would have continued to wear their Foresters cap badge on the black beret of the Royal Armoured Corps.

## Service

163 RAC was stationed at Rawalpindi under command of 267th Indian Armoured Brigade. However, there was a change of policy, and on 1 December 1944 (also reported as 1 December 1943) the regiment was re-converted to infantry, reverting to its previous title of 13th Foresters and coming under command of 67 Indian Training Brigade.

# Bridge Frodsham

Bridge Frodsham was an English actor.

## Life

He was born in Frodsham, Cheshire in 1734. He was admitted on the foundation of Westminster School in 1746, but ran away; in 1748, he was received back at the school. He ran away a second time, and making his way to Leicester attached himself to a theatrical company. He was encouraged by J. G. Cooper of Thurgarton, Nottinghamshire, once also a Westminster boy, to make acting his profession, and joined the company at York.
He quickly became popular, and was known as the ‘York Garrick.’ Tate Wilkinson thought his Hamlet of a high standard. He rarely left York. He died 21 October 1768 at Kingston upon Hull, his end being accelerated by drink.
# Actus pontificum Cenomannis

The Actus pontificum Cenomannis in urbe degentium ("Acts of the bishops dwelling in the city of Le Mans") is a series of short biographies of the Bishops of Le Mans, starting with the first legendary bishop Julian, one of the Seventy Disciples. The core text was written in the middle ninth century, probably by a cleric or clerics of the cathedral of Le Mans, though it had several subsequent continuations into the High Middle Ages. Much of the information this core contains, including several charters and diplomas, is partly or wholly fictitious.
The Actus were probably part of an ambitious campaign to extend the bishop's rights over neighbouring monasteries, particularly the Benedictine abbey of Saint-Calais, though the attempt collapsed at the royal council of Verberie in 863. The text is important as evidence for late Carolingian episcopal ideology.

# Louis-Joseph Marchand (musician)

Louis-Joseph Marchand (1 January 1692, Troyes — 20 November 1774) was a French music theorist, composer, choir director, and priest.

## Life and career

Born in Troyes, Louis-Joseph Marchand studied singing in Bourges and Auxerre. He became a priest in the Roman Catholic Diocese of Troyes. He first served as the 'maître de musique' at the Châlons Cathedral, before taking up a similar position at the Besançon Cathedral. He left the latter post in August 1735 to head the maîtrise (a term used in France to refer collectively to a position of responsibility over the choristers, their living quarters, and other associated responsibilities) at the Collegiate Church of St Maxe at Bar-le-Duc; a position he held until his retirement 32 years later. He also concurrently held the position of canon at the Notre-Dame Cathedral in 1764–1765. After retiring in 1767, he returned to Troyes where he lived until his death on November 20, 1774.
Marchand authored the first work on counterpoint published in France in the 18th century: Traité du contrepoint simple, ou Chant sur le livre (published 1739 by Richard Briflot in Bar-le-Duc). His theories were conservative, and did not agree with the more progressive theories proposed by Jean-Philippe Rameau. The work heavily influenced composer and theorist Henry Madin who in turn published Traité de contrepoint simple (Paris, 1742) after being inspired by Marchand. Only one work composed by Marchand survives, the choral work Missa quatuor vocibus, cui titulus, Quis, ut Deus? (Paris, 1743).
