Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in

Overview of Serological Techniques for Influenza Vaccine Evaluation: Past, Present and Future [PDF]

, 2014
Serological techniques commonly used to quantify influenza-specific antibodies include the Haemagglutination Inhibition (HI), Single Radial Haemolysis (SRH) and Virus Neutralization (VN) assays.

An upstream open reading frame regulates expression of the mitochondrial protein Slm35 and mitophagy flux

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

A Field Survey by Means of the Direct Fluorescent Antibody Technique for Diagnosis of Pseudotuberculosis in Yellowtail

Fish Pathology, 1976
The direct fluorescent antibody technique was applied to a survey of “Pseudotuberculosis” in cultured yellowtail (Seriola quinqueradiata) in Miyazaki Prefecture. At the incipient stage of this infection, the characteristic lesions could not be found in spleens and/or kidneys of yellowtail macroscopically, although the causative bacteria could be ...

Detection of cryptosporidium oocysts in water and environmental concentrates [PDF]

, 1997
Whilst current methods for the isolation and enumeration of Cryptosporidium spp. oocysts in water have provided some insight into their occurrence and significance, they are regarded as being inefficient, variable and time-consuming, with much of the ...

Cell Propagation of Cholera Toxin CTA ADP-Ribosylating Factor by Exosome Mediated Transfer [PDF]

, 2018
In this study, we report how the cholera toxin (CT) A subunit (CTA), the enzyme moiety responsible for signaling alteration in host cells, enters the exosomal pathway, secretes extracellularly, transmits itself to a cell population.

Junctional Adhesion Molecule-C Mediates the Recruitment of Embryonic-Endothelial Progenitor Cells to the Perivascular Niche during Tumor Angiogenesis [PDF]

, 2020
The homing of Endothelial Progenitor Cells (EPCs) to tumor angiogenic sites has been described as a multistep process, involving adhesion, migration, incorporation and sprouting, for which the underlying molecular and cellular mechanisms are yet to be ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Lack of correlation between in vitro and within patient measures of P. aeruginosa biofilms in cystic fibrosis

Heliyon
Current in vitro biofilm modelling of the opportunistic pathogen, Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) in people with cystic fibrosis (PwCF) is limited in its ability to mimic the complexities of the cystic fibrosis (CF) lung environment.

Effects of LP-MOCVD prepared TiO2 thin films on the in vitro behavior of gingival fibroblasts [PDF]

, 2011
We report on the in vitro response of human gingival fibroblasts (HGF-1 cell line) to various thin films of titanium dioxide (TiO2) deposited on titanium (Ti) substrates by low pressure metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (LP-MOCVD).
