C-type lectin-like receptor 2: roles and drug target

Thrombosis Journal
C-type lectin-like receptor-2 (CLEC-2) is a member of the C-type lectin superfamily of cell surface receptors. The first confirmed endogenous and exogenous ligands of CLEC-2 are podoplanin and rhodocytin, respectively.

C-Type Lectin Receptors in Antiviral Immunity and Viral Escape [PDF]

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
C-type lectin receptors (CLRs) are important pattern recognition receptors involved in recognition and induction of adaptive immunity to pathogens. Certain CLRs play an important role in viral infections as they efficiently interact with viruses. However, it has become clear that deadly viruses subvert the function of CLRs to escape antiviral immunity ...

Astrocyte Enrichment of 3D Cortical Constructs Enhances Brain Repair

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study highlights the role of astrocytes in supporting neural progenitor cell survival and differentiation after traumatic brain injury. Astrocytes enhanced neuronal differentiation, improved cell survival in co‐cultures, and promoted integration of microfluidics‐based implants with host tissue following implantation. Additionally, increased axonal

Clec4A4 is a regulatory receptor for dendritic cells that impairs inflammation and T-cell immunity

Nature Communications, 2016
Clec4A4 is a C-type lectin receptor highly expressed by CD8α− dendritic cells. Here the authors show that its loss of function results in enhanced T cell responses and exacerbated autoimmunity, implicating Clec4A4 in limiting activation of the CD8α ...

Engineered Mesenchymal Stem Cell–NK Cell Complexes for Spatially Targeted and Functionally Revitalized Cancer Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
IL‐15‐engineered stem cell–NK cell complexes, assembled via bioorthogonal chemistry, enable effective lung cancer immunotherapy. Abstract Natural killer (NK) cells represent a powerful immunotherapeutic strategy due to their intrinsic cytotoxicity and ability to target tumor cells independently of antigen presentation.

The diagnostic role of C2PAC index in cases of sepsis-induced coagulopathy (SIC)

The Egyptian Journal of Bronchology, 2023
Background To study the potential role of the C2PAC index (a ratio of soluble type C lectin-like receptor 2 level sCLEC-2 and platelet count) in sepsis-induced coagulopathy with the possibility of using this index as an early predictor in sepsis and ...

Calcium Shock Enables Efficient and Programmable Particle Delivery for Genome Editing Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Classical transfection and transduction are inefficient, particularly with confluent cells and organoids, and lack cell type‐specific programmability. This study presents calcium shock (CaSh), a method that dramatically improves particle delivery into single cells, colonies, and organoids.
