Piezoelectric Mechanism and a Compliant Film to Effectively Suppress Dendrite Growth

ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, 2020
We show a piezoelectric mechanism that effectively suppresses dendrite growth using a compliant piezoelectric film as a separator or coating. When an electrode surface starts to lose stability upon lithium deposition, any protrusion causes film stretching, generating a local piezoelectric overpotential that suppresses deposition on the protrusion ...

Stimulatory and suppressive effects of infection of dendritic cells with HIV-1

Immunology Letters, 1991
Two effects of HIV infection on human dendritic cells (DC) in vitro have been examined. The first was the stimulation of primary responses to HIV antigens in autologous lymphocytes from normal donors. When DC were exposed to HIV (10(4) TCID/10(5) cells) for up to 24 h before addition to autologous lymphocytes, a marked primary proliferative response to

Antithymocyte Globulins Suppress Dendritic Cell Function by Multiple Mechanisms

Transplantation, 2007
The polyclonal rabbit antithymocyte and anti-T-cell immunoglobulins (ATGs) Thymoglobulin (TG) and ATG-Fresenius S (ATG-F) have been widely used for the prevention and therapy of allograft rejection and graft versus host disease in transplantation. Although immunosuppressive mechanisms of ATGs on T cells are well studied, less is known about their ...

Suppressive effect of pregnant serum on murine dendritic cell function

Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Research, 2012
AbstractAim:  Tolerance to the semi‐allogenic fetal graft by the maternal immune system is a medical enigma. Many aspects of immunoregulation at the feto–maternal interface have been clarified, but systemic effects of pregnancy on the immune system are still elusive. The present study was undertaken to determine whether mid‐pregnancy mouse serum has an

RelB suppresses type I Interferon signaling in dendritic cells

Cellular Immunology, 2020
Type I Interferon (IFN) signaling plays a critical role in dendritic cell (DC) development and functions. Inhibition of hyper type I IFN signaling promotes cDC2 subtype development. Relb is essential to development of cDC2 subtype and here we analyzed its effect on type I IFN signaling in DCs.

Activation and suppression of renin–angiotensin system in human dendritic cells

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2002
We previously identified the gene expression of renin-angiotensin system in human monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DCs). This study was conducted to examine the mechanisms by which angiotensin II and captopril, the inhibitor of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), affect human DCs.

Lithium Dendrite Suppression with UV-Curable Polysilsesquioxane Separator Binders

ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, 2016
For the first time, an inorganic-organic hybrid polymer binder was used for the coating of hybrid composites on separators to enhance thermal stability and to prevent formation of lithium dendrite in lithium metal batteries. The fabricated hybrid-composite-coated separators exhibited minimal thermal shrinkage compared with the previous composite ...

PTGS2 Effectively Suppress Dendritic Cell Immunity

Biochemistry & Physiology: Open Access, 2014
Prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase (PTGS), also known as cyclooxygenase (COX), is a key enzyme in prostaglandin biosynthesis,regulates dioxygenase and peroxidase activity. The major metabolites of PTGS2 are PGE2, PGF2, PGD2, PGI2, and TXA2. All of these are steroid and act as immunosuppressive agentsbut differ in their regulation of expression and ...

In Vitro Suppression of Dendritic Cells by Helicobacter pylori OipA

Helicobacter, 2014
AbstractBackgroundOuter inflammatory protein A (OipA) has an important role in Helicobacter pylori pathogenesis. In this study, we purified the outer membrane protein and evaluated the effects of this protein on maturation and cytokine production by dendritic cells (DCs).Materials and MethodsThe oipA gene was inserted into pET28a, and this construct ...
