Forces and Structures of the Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) Entry Mechanism. [PDF]
This paper discusses physical and structural aspects of the mechanisms herpes simplex virus (HSV) uses for membrane fusion. Calculations show that herpes simplex virus glycoprotein D has such avidity for its receptors that it can hold the virion against ...

How promising are endophytic fungi as alternative sources of plant secondary metabolites? [PDF]
In this article the authors discusses the use of endophytic fungi as substitute of plant secondary metabolites. It states that endophytic fungi exist internally in plants and enhance the plants' ability to tolerate abiotic and biotic stresses. Endophytic

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 ...

Cytoplasmic Streaming in Plant Cells Emerges Naturally by Microfilament Self-Organization
Many cells exhibit large-scale active circulation of their entire fluid contents, a process termed cytoplasmic streaming. This phenomenon is particularly prevalent in plant cells, often presenting strikingly regimented flow patterns.

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 ...

Cytochalasin B has been reported to inhibit fibrinogen binding and aggregation of rabbit platelets in response to ADP. The present study was designed to ascertain whether cytochalasins B and D inhibit aggregation by interfering with the exposure of fibrinogen receptors or more directly by inhibiting binding to available receptors.
