MHC class II-restricted antigen presentation by plasmacytoid dendritic cells drives proatherogenic T cell immunity [PDF]
, 2014 Background—Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) bridge innate and adaptive immune responses and are important regulators of immuno-inflammatory diseases. However, their role in atherosclerosis remains elusive.

Early versus late amniotomy during twin labor
International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.Abstract Objective This study evaluates whether timing of amniotomy affects labor characteristics and maternal and neonatal outcomes in twin deliveries. Methods This retrospective study was conducted at a single academic medical center and included dichorionic diamniotic (DCDA) twin pregnancies with a normal anomaly scan and a vertex‐presenting leading

Tetherin/BST-2 promotes dendritic cell activation and function during acute retrovirus infection [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2016 AbstractTetherin/BST-2 is a host restriction factor that inhibits retrovirus release from infected cells in vitro by tethering nascent virions to the plasma membrane. However, contradictory data exists on whether Tetherin inhibits acute retrovirus infection in vivo.

Stratified sampling enhances the understanding of bat–fruit networks in the southern Atlantic Forest
Oikos, EarlyView.Few studies have sought to understand the vertical patterns of bat–fruit systems, and therefore, it is not possible to evaluate whether interpretations based on data collected from a single stratum adequately represent the interaction patterns of this system. In this context, we evaluated the dissimilarity in the assemblage of frugivorous bats, plants,

How are proteins reduced in the endoplasmic reticulum? [PDF]
, 2018 The reversal of thiol oxidation in proteins within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is crucial for protein folding, degradation, chaperone function, and the ER stress response. Our understanding of this process is generally poor but progress has been made.

Antiviral Inhibition of Enveloped Virus Release by Tetherin/BST-2: Action and Counteraction [PDF]
Viruses, 2011 Tetherin (BST2/CD317) has been recently recognized as a potent interferon-induced antiviral molecule that inhibits the release of diverse mammalian enveloped virus particles from infected cells. By targeting an immutable structure common to all these viruses, the virion membrane, evasion of this antiviral mechanism has necessitated the development of ...
