Human β-Defensin 2 and Its Postulated Role in Modulation of the Immune Response
Cells, 2021 Studies described so far suggest that human β-defensin 2 is an important protein of innate immune response which provides protection for the human organism against invading pathogens of bacterial, viral, fungal, as well as parasitical origin. Its pivotal

The expression and localization of V-ATPase and cytokeratin 5 during postnatal development of the pig epididymis [PDF]
Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2020 Objective We examined the localization and expression of H+ pumping vacuolar ATPase (V-ATPase) and cytokeratin 5 (KRT5) in the epididymis of pigs, expressed in clear and basal cells, respectively, during postnatal development.

PM10 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa: effects on corneal epithelium
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023 PurposeIn vivo data indicate that mouse corneas exposed to PM10 showed early perforation and thinning after infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa. To understand the mechanisms underlying this finding, we tested the effects of PM10 and the mitochondria ...

Key Role for CRB2 in the Maintenance of Apicobasal Polarity in Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Apicobasal polarity is essential for epithelial cell function, yet the roles of different proteins in its completion is not fully understood. Here, we have studied the role of the polarity protein, CRB2, in human retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells ...
