Regulation of elastase and plasminogen activator secretion in resident and inflammatory macrophages by receptors for the Fc domain of immunoglobulin G. [PDF]
We have determined that the interaction of IgG-coated erythrocytes (EIgG) and complement-coated erythrocytes (EIgMC) with macrophage Fc and complement receptors, respectively, modulates the secretion of the neutral proteinases, elastase, and plasminogen ...

The zipper mechanism in phagocytosis: energetic requirements and variability in phagocytic cup shape [PDF]
Phagocytosis is the fundamental cellular process by which eukaryotic cells bind and engulf particles by their cell membrane. Particle engulfment involves particle recognition by cell-surface receptors, signaling and remodeling of the actin cytoskeleton ...

NQO1‐Responsive Prodrug for in Cellulo Release of Cytochalasin B as Cancer Cell‐Targeted Migrastatic
The design, synthesis, biochemical, and cell biological evaluation of the NQO1‐targeted prodrug BQTML‐CB is reported. BQTML‐CB selectively releases cytochalasin B upon activation by the quinone‐oxidoreductase NQO1 associated with invasiveness of cancer cells, representing a novel approach to improve cancer selectivity and reduce immunosuppressive ...

Stimulation of a glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase by insulin and the sulfonylurea, glimepiride, in rat adipocytes depends on increased glucose transport [PDF]
. Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and glycolipidanchored cAMP-binding ectoprotein (Gcel) are modified by glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol (GPI) in rat adipocytes, however, the linkage is potentially unstable. Incubation of the cells with either insulin (0.1-30 nM)

Rejuvenation of Senescent Cells, In Vitro and In Vivo, by Low‐Frequency Ultrasound
Optimized low‐frequency ultrasound rejuvenates induced senescent cells and aged mice. Our results show that LFU reverses 15 aspects of senescent cells including growth and revitalizes aged mice. ABSTRACT The presence of senescent cells causes age‐related pathologies since their removal by genetic or pharmacological means, as well as possibly by ...

Impact of phenylpropanoid compounds on heat stress tolerance in carrot cell cultures [PDF]
The phenylpropanoid and flavonoid families include thousands of specialized metabolites that influence a wide range of processes in plants, including seed dispersal, auxin transport, photoprotection, mechanical support and protection against insect ...

Direct activation and rejuvenation of aged fibroblasts through the application of mechanical forces in a 3D spheroid culture model. The ERK signaling pathway was revealed as a key underlying mechanism. ABSTRACT Age‐related changes in human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) contribute to impaired wound healing and skin aging.

Strain-dependent porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) entry and replication in T-lymphoblasts [PDF]
Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the etiological agent of PCV2-associated diseases (PCVAD). PCV2 targets lymphoblasts, and pigs suffering from PCVAD display lymphocyte depletion in lymphoid tissues. PCV2 infection of lymphoblasts has not been studied.

Schematic representation of generation of 8‐gene‐edited cloned pigs and their verification by pig to non‐human primate kidney xenotransplantation. ABSTRACT Gene‐edited (GE) pig‐to‐human xenotransplantation continues to make breakthroughs, but which kind of gene combination is suitable for organ‐specific transplantation remains unclear.

ECH protects senescent oocytes by stabilising the cytoskeleton, restoring mitochondrial function, reducing oxidative stress and maintaining cellular homeostasis, primarily through the GJA1/SIRT1 signalling pathway. ABSTRACT As maternal age increases, the decline in oocyte quality emerges as a critical factor contributing to reduced reproductive ...
