Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

SMSs inhibit the classical, lectin and alternative pathway. [PDF]
Complement deposition assays were performed on microtiter plates coated with aggregated IgG (classical pathway), mannan (lectin pathway) and zymosan (alternative pathway) in presence or absence of scabies mite serpins, respectively. Shown are means ± SEM

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Serum amyloid P aids complement-mediated immunity to Streptococcus pneumoniae [PDF]
The physiological functions of the acute phase protein serum amyloid P (SAP) component are not well defined, although they are likely to be important, as no natural state of SAP deficiency has been reported.

Nonclassical Testosterone Signaling:A New Pathway Controlling Spermatogenesis? [PDF]
Testosterone is the essential regulator of spermatogenesis [1]. Produced by the testicular Leydig cells in response to pituitary Luteinizing Hormone (LH) stimulation, testosterone mediates its effects by binding to its cognate receptor, the ligand ...

Novel Evasion Mechanisms of the Classical Complement Pathway [PDF]
Abstract Complement is a network of soluble and cell surface-associated proteins that gives rise to a self-amplifying, yet tightly regulated system with fundamental roles in immune surveillance and clearance. Complement becomes activated on the surface of nonself cells by one of three initiating mechanisms known as the classical, lectin,

We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Complexes between C1q and C3 or C4: novel and specific markers for classical complement pathway activation [PDF]
Classical pathway activation is often assessed by measuring circulating levels of activated C4. However, this parameter does not discriminate between activation through the classical or the lectin pathway.

Non-classical crystallization pathway of transition metal phosphate compounds [PDF]
Here, we elucidate non-classical multistep crystallization pathways of transition metal phosphates from aqueous solutions. We followed precipitation processes of M-struvites, NH4MPO4∙6H2O, and M-phosphate octahydrates, M3(PO4)2∙8H2O, where M = Ni, Co ...
