Natural killer cell response to chemotherapy-stressed cancer cells: Role in tumor immunosurveillance. [PDF]
Natural killer (NK) cells are innate cytotoxic lymphoid cells that actively prevent neoplastic development, growth, and metastatic dissemination in a process called cancer immunosurveillance.

Eosinophils Oxidize Damage-Associated Molecular Pattern Molecules Derived from Stressed Cells [PDF]
Abstract Eosinophils (Eos) are found at increased numbers within necrotic areas of tumors. We show that necrotic material from cell lysates containing damage-associated molecular pattern molecules induce eosinophil degranulation (release of major basic protein and eosinophil peroxidase) and enhance their oxidative burst while the ...

Holography and Coherent Diffraction with Low-Energy Electrons: A Route towards Structural Biology at the Single Molecule Level [PDF]
The current state of the art in structural biology is led by NMR, X-ray crystallography and TEM investigations. These powerful tools however all rely on averaging over a large ensemble of molecules.

Research progress on damage ⁃ associated molecular patterns in intracerebral hemorrhage
After the onset of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), the immune storm causes the massive death of neurons and their supporting cells. Cytotoxic substances such as hemoglobin, heme and iron ions released by red blood cells lysis also promote death of ...

Endotracheal tube-induced sore throat pain and inflammation is coupled to the release of mitochondrial DNA [PDF]
In the absence of infection, the pathophysiology of endotracheal tube-induced sore throat pain is unclear. Activated neutrophils release elastase, reactive oxygen species, and inflammatory cytokines known to contribute to neuropathic pain. Sterile tissue

Peptide Aggregation Induced Immunogenic Rupture (PAIIR)
Immunogenic cell death (ICD) arises when cells are under stress, and their membranes are damaged. They release damage‐associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) that stimulate and drive the type and magnitude of the immune response.

Evaluation of the zucker diabetic fatty (ZDF) rat as a model for human disease based on urinary peptidomic profiles [PDF]
Representative animal models for diabetes-associated vascular complications are extremely relevant in assessing potential therapeutic drugs. While several rodent models for type 2 diabetes (T2D) are available, their relevance in recapitulating renal and ...

Reformulating Pro-Oxidant Microglia in Neurodegeneration [PDF]
In neurodegenerative diseases, microglia-mediated neuroinflammation and oxidative stress are central events. Recent genome-wide transcriptomic analyses of microglial cells under different disease conditions have uncovered a new subpopulation named ...
