Damage-induced signalling mechanisms in the neonatal rat cochlea. [PDF]
, 2007 Sound overstimulation and exposure to ototoxic drugs damage cochlear hair cells (HCs) and cause their death. The surrounding support cells maintain an epithelial barrier and the appropriate physiological environment for surviving HCs during pathological ...

Phagocytosis of aged human neutrophils by macrophages is mediated by a novel "charge-sensitive" recognition mechanism [PDF]
, 1989 The removal of neutrophils and their histotoxic contents from the inflamed site is a prerequisite for resolution of tissue injury, and a point at which factors critical to the pathogenesis of chronic inflammation may act.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.

The ubiquitin system in normal and infected germinal center B cells
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The ubiquitin system plays a central role in germinal center (GC) B cells, influencing differentiation to long‐lived memory B cells. Oncogenic gammaherpesviruses gain access to memory B cells by establishing latency in GC B cells. Mapping ubiquitin mechanisms in normal and infected GC B cells will define specific molecular circuits in B cells germane ...

ADENOSINE RECEPTORS IN RESPIRATORY DISORDERS AS CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE AND MALIGNANT PLEURAL MESOTHELIOMA [PDF]
, 2012 Adenosine is a purine nucleoside that is commonly expressed in the body and involved in a wide range of physiological processes. The effects of adenosine are mediated through specific G-protein coupled cell surface receptors, named A1, A2A, A2B and A3 ...

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

Scarred by a death receptor [PDF]
The Journal of Cell Biology, 2007 ![Graphic][1] The fibrin (red) that blocks nerve healing is degraded when p75NTR isn't around (right) to dampen tPA levels. Even when it's not killing, a death receptor still finds ways to inflict damage. On page [1119][2], Sachs et al.

Smaller is better: nanobodies meet NMR
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Nanobodies are single‐domain antigen‐binding fragments derived from camelid heavy chain antibodies. Their small size, high stability, and exceptional specificity make nanobodies uniquely useful probes for NMR studies of protein dynamics, transient conformational states, and protein–protein interactions.

PTPN23-dependent ESCRT machinery functions as a cell death checkpoint
Nature CommunicationsCell death plasticity is crucial for modulating tissue homeostasis and immune responses, but our understanding of the molecular components that regulate cell death pathways to determine cell fate remains limited.

Pattern Recognition Receptors and the Host Cell Death Molecular Machinery
Frontiers in Immunology, 2018 Pattern Recognition Receptors (PRRs) are proteins capable of recognizing molecules frequently found in pathogens (the so-called Pathogen-Associated Molecular Patterns—PAMPs), or molecules released by damaged cells (the Damage-Associated Molecular ...
