Cellular and humoral immune responses and protection against schistosomes induced by a radiation-attenuated vaccine in chimpanzees [PDF]
The radiation-attenuated Schistosoma mansoni vaccine is highly effective in rodents and primates but has never been tested in humans, primarily for safety reasons.

Electrochemical detection of Toxocara canis excretory-secretory antigens in children from rural communities in Esmeraldas Province, Ecuador: association between active infection and high eosinophilia. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The diagnosis of active Toxocara canis infections in humans is challenging. Larval stages of T. canis do not replicate in human tissues and disease may result from infection with a single T. canis larva.

Revisiting the role of histo-blood group antigens in rotavirus host-cell invasion
Histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs) have been proposed as rotavirus receptors. H type-1 and Lewisb antigens have been reported to bind VP8* from major human rotavirus genotypes P[4], P[6] and P[8], while VP8* from a rarer P[14] rotavirus recognizes A-type

Genetic Analysis of ABO and Rh Blood Groups in Brahmin Population of Uttar Pradesh, India” [PDF]
A series of glycoprotein and glycolipids on the red blood cell surface constitute blood group antigens. These are A, B, AB and O in ABO blood group system and Rh in rhesus blood group system. These antigens are genetically controlled.

Insights into PI3K/AKT signaling in B cell development and chronic lymphocytic leukemia
This Review explores how the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase and protein kinase B pathway shapes B cell development and drives chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common blood cancer. It examines how signaling levels affect disease progression, addresses treatment challenges, and introduces novel experimental strategies to improve therapies and patient outcomes.

In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.
