Human Cytomegalovirus glycoprotein UL16 causes intracellular sequestration of NKG2D ligands, protecting against NK cell cytotoxicity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The activating receptor, NKG2D, is expressed on a variety of immune effector cells and recognizes divergent families of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-related ligands, including the MIC and ULBP proteins.

Islands of linkage in an ocean of pervasive recombination reveals two-speed evolution of human cytomegalovirus genomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infects most of the population worldwide, persisting throughout the host's life in a latent state with periodic episodes of reactivation.

“Therapies Through Gut:” Targeted Drug Delivery for Non‐Gastrointestinal Diseases by Oral Administration

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of the mechanism of targeted delivery of nanoparticles including 1) paracellular, 2) endolysosomal escape, 3) receptor mediated endocytosis, and 4) M cell mediated transport for non‐GI diseases by oral administration such as atherosclerosis, cancer, diabetes, and brain diseases. Abstract Oral drug delivery is a promising approach

CL glycoprotein is the tissue form of type VI collagen.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1985
CL glycoprotein (CLGP), the 140,000-dalton collagenous glycoprotein, has been isolated from fetal bovine aorta and nuchal ligament, in milligram amounts in its reduced and alkylated form, using a multistage procedure. This material exhibited a characteristic amino acid composition with a consistent ratio of hydroxylysine to hydroxyproline ...

Reservoir‐Type Subcutaneous Implantable Devices Containing Porous Rate Controlling Membranes for Sustained Delivery of Risperidone

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a novel implantable drug delivery systemwith a biodegradable poly(caprolactone) membrane and compressed drug core forsustained release. These implantable devices deliver risperidone in vitro for 170 days and in vivo for 49 days in rats, showing promise for chronic conditions like schizophrenia.

Regulation and Function of WASp in Platelets by the Collagen Receptor, Glycoprotein VI

open access: yesBlood, 1999
Wiskott Aldrich syndrome (WAS) is an X-linked recessive disorder associated with abnormalities in platelets and lymphocytes giving rise to thrombocytopenia and immunodeficiency. WAS is caused by a mutation in the gene encoding the cytoskeletal protein (WASp). Despite its importance, the role of WASp in platelet function is not established.

In Vivo‐Like Scaffold‐Free 3D In Vitro Models of Muscular Dystrophies: The Case for Anchored Cell Sheet Engineering in Personalized Medicine

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The scaffold‐free Anchored Cell Sheet Engineering platform is used to create three‐dimensional (3D) in vitro models of skeletal muscle tissue that replicate key features of Duchenne and Myotonic dystrophies. These personalized tissue models, validated by histological, immunostaining, and proteomics analyses, accurately mimic disease phenotypes and ...

Endogenous human cytomegalovirus gB is efficiently presented by MHC class II molecules to CD4+ CTL [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infects endothelial, epithelial, and glial cells in vivo. These cells can express MHC class II proteins, but are unlikely to play important roles in priming host immunity.
