Defensin-rich dense granules of human neutrophils [PDF]

open access: yesBlood, 1987
Defensins are a newly recognized class of small, cationic polypeptides that have in vitro microbicidal activity toward certain bacteria, fungi, and viruses. Human neutrophil granules were separated into 13 density fractions by using a high-resolution Percoll gradient centrifugation procedure, and the distribution of the three defensin polypeptides in ...

Structural and Immunocytochemical Characterization of the Synthesis and Accumulation of Starch in Sweet Potato (Ipomoea batatas Lam.) Tuberous Root

open access: yesPlant Production Science, 2002
The structural changes in the plastid-amyloplast system in the parenchyma cells of sweet potato tuberous roots during thickening were examined by electron microscopy. In the tuberous roots, proplastids and plastids that contain starch granules propagated

Recombinant Dense Granule Protein (NcGRA4) Is a Novel Serological Marker for Neospora caninum Infection in Goats

open access: yesAnimals, 2023
Neospora caninum is widely recognised as one of the most significant causes of abortion in cattle, with infections also occurring in sheep and goats. To prevent and control animal neosporosis, it is crucial to develop sensitive and specific methods for ...

Histological and ultrastructural studies of the pancreas of native rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) [PDF]

open access: yesIraqi Journal of Veterinary Sciences, 2019
The pancreas of male adult native rabbit was studied by using light microscope (LM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The pancreas possessed both exocrine and endocrine portions. Exocrine portion included both acinar and ductal cells.

The Toxoplasma gondii effector GRA83 modulates the host’s innate immune response to regulate parasite infection

open access: yesmSphere, 2023
Toxoplasma gondii’s propensity to infect its host and cause disease is highly dependent on its ability to modulate host cell functions. One of the strategies the parasite uses to accomplish this is via the export of effector proteins from the secretory ...

Potentiation of TRAP-6-induced platelet dense granule release by blockade of P2Y12 signaling with MRS2395

open access: yesPlatelets, 2018
The release of ADP from platelet dense granules and its binding to platelet P2Y12 receptors is key to amplifying the initial hemostatic response and propagating thrombus formation.

ELECTRON MICROSCOPICAL OBSERVATIONS ON THE TRACHEAL EPITHELIUM OF THE ONE-HUMPED CAMEL (CAMELUS DROMEDARIUS) WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO CILIOGENESIS [PDF]

open access: yesAssiut Veterinary Medical Journal, 1999
This study was carried out on 10 adult, apparently healthy one-humped camels of different ages and of both sexes. The ultrastructure of camel tracheal epithelium was studied by scanning and transmission electron microscopes.

A novel missense variant in SLC18A2 causes recessive brain monoamine vesicular transport disease and absent serotonin in platelets

open access: yesJIMD Reports, 2019
Background Brain monoamine vesicular transport disease is an infantile onset neurodevelopmental disorder caused by variants in SLC18A2, which codes for the vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2) protein, involved in the transport of monoamines into ...

Tetraspanin-8 sequesters syntaxin-2 to control biphasic release propensity of mucin granules

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Agonist-mediated stimulated pathway of mucin and insulin release are biphasic in which rapid fusion of pre-docked granules is followed by slow docking and fusion of granules from the reserve pool. Here, based on a cell-culture system, we show that plasma
