Transcriptional stimulation of anthrax toxin receptors by anthrax edema toxin and Bacillus anthracis Sterne spore [PDF]
We used quantitative real-time RT-PCR to not only investigate the mRNA levels of anthrax toxin receptor 1 (ANTXR1) and 2 (ANTXR2) in the murine J774A.1 macrophage cells and different tissues of mice, but also evaluate the effect of anthrax edema toxin and Bacillus anthracis Sterne spores on the expression of mRNA of these receptors.

Mechanism and role of regulated cell death in tumor immunity and immunotherapy
Abstract Cancer immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have brought breakthroughs, but only about one‐third of cancer patients benefit from ICIs. In recent years, targeting non‐apoptotic regulated cell death (RCD) subtypes, such as ferroptosis, necroptosis, autophagy, cuproptosis, and pyroptosis, has emerged as a novel strategy in cancer therapy due to ...
