The Neoplasia as embryological phenomenon and its implication in the animal evolution and the origin of cancer. III. The role of flagellated cell fusion in the formation of the first animal and evolutionary clues to the Warburg effect [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Cytasters have been underestimated in terms of their potential relevance to embryonic development and evolution. From the perspective discussed herein, structures such as the multiciliated cells of comb rows and balancers supporting mineralized statoliths and macrocilia in Beroe ovata point to a past event of multiflagellate fusion in the origin of ...

Fusion of Sendai virus with the target cell membrane is required for T cell cytotoxicity [PDF]
, 1978 INFECTION of mice with viruses can generate cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) which show restricted specificity for target cell lysis. Specific lysis requires that the virus used to prime the target cells must be of the same type as that used to sensitise ...

Insertion of the FeB cofactor in cNORs lacking metal inserting chaperones
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Nitric oxide reductase is an enzyme found in the bacterial denitrification pathway. The NOR active site contains a non‐heme iron, often, but not always inserted with the assistance of chaperones. Here, we study the insertion of FeB in the subfamily of cNORs lacking chaperones and found a putative channel, conserved in the family, perhaps enabling the ...

Multiple stalk formation as a pathway of defect-induced membrane fusion [PDF]
, 2004 We propose that the first stage of membrane fusion need not be the formation of a single stalk. Instead, we consider a scenario for defect-induced membrane fusion that proceeds cooperatively via multiple stalk formation. The defects (stalks or pores) attract each other via membrane-mediated capillary interactions that result in a condensation ...

Adaptive Patched Grid Mapping [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 In this work, we propose a novel adaptive grid mapping approach, the Adaptive Patched Grid Map, which enables a situational aware grid based perception for autonomous vehicles. Its structure allows a flexible representation of the surrounding unstructured environment.

Stem Cells in Spinal Fusion [PDF]
Global Spine Journal, 2017 Study Design: Review of literature. Objectives: This review of literature investigates the application of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in spinal fusion, highlights potential uses in the development of bone grafts, and discusses limitations based on both preclinical and clinical models.

Veterinary SciencesLymphocyte activation gene 3 (LAG3) is an inhibitory receptor and the interaction between fibrinogen-like protein 1 and LAG3 can inhibit the anti-tumor effect of T cells both in vivo and in vitro, which was regarded as a new immune evasion mechanism ...

Mitochondrial network state scales mtDNA genetic dynamics [PDF]
, 2018 Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations cause severe congenital diseases but may also be associated with healthy aging. MtDNA is stochastically replicated and degraded, and exists within organelles which undergo dynamic fusion and fission. The role of the resulting mitochondrial networks in the time evolution of the cellular proportion of mutated mtDNA ...

Mitofusins Mfn1 and Mfn2 coordinately regulate mitochondrial fusion and are essential for embryonic development [PDF]
, 2003 Mitochondrial morphology is determined by a dynamic equilibrium between organelle fusion and fission, but the significance of these processes in vertebrates is unknown.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.α2 → 8 polysialic acid elicits poor immunogenicity. Small‐angle scattering shows a supramolecular structure with parallel‐chain binding, although in different forms at μm and mm calcium. The major histocompatibility complex requires molecular weights around 2000 Da to produce antibodies, and 2000 Da polysialic oligomers will bind in these structures ...
