A Nonpolymorphic Class I Gene in the Murine Major Histocompatibility Complex [PDF]
DNA sequence analysis of a class I gene (QlO), which maps to the Qa2,3 locus in the C57BL/lO (H- 2b haplotype) mouse, reveals that it is almost identical to a cDNA clone (pH16) isolated from a SWR/J (H-2q haplotype) mouse liver cDNA library.

Cell surface interactome analysis identifies TSPAN4 as a negative regulator of PD‐L1 in melanoma
Using cell surface proximity biotinylation, we identified tetraspanin TSPAN4 within the PD‐L1 interactome of melanoma cells. TSPAN4 negatively regulates PD‐L1 expression and lateral mobility by limiting its interaction with CMTM6 and promoting PD‐L1 degradation.

Utilization of Staphylococcal Immune Evasion Protein Sbi as a Novel Vaccine Adjuvant
Co-ligation of the B cell antigen receptor with complement receptor 2 on B-cells via a C3d-opsonised antigen complex significantly lowers the threshold required for B cell activation.

Pharmacologic ascorbate (vitamin C) increases ROS, disrupts cellular metabolism, and induces DNA damage in CRPC cells. These effects sensitize tumors to PARP inhibition, producing synergistic growth suppression with olaparib in vitro and significantly delayed tumor progression in vivo. Pyruvate rescue confirms ROS‐dependent activity.

Infection with Helicobacter pylori and the age at onset of coeliac disease in the “HUNT4” survey
Objective This study aimed to determine whether H. pylori or its antigens affect the age at which coeliac disease (CeD) was diagnosed. Participants over 20 years old from the HUNT4 survey were screened for CeD by measuring serum immunoglobulin A and ...

2,4-Dihydroxypentanoic Acids: New Non-sugar Components of Bacterial Polysaccharides
New components of bacterial polysaccharides, (2 S ,4 R )- and (2 R ,4 R )-2,4-dihydroxypentanoic acids, were identified using two-dimensional 1 H and 13 C NMR spectroscopy in the O-antigens of Providencia alcalifaciens O8 and O31.

The protein antigens secreted in vivo by adult male Schistosoma mansoni [PDF]
Adult schistosomes can be transferred surgically from donor C57BL/6 mice to the portal veins of naive recipients with complete success. This procedure bypasses larval development and the antibody response of the host is directed against, and can be used ...

Plecstatin inhibits hepatocellular carcinoma tumorigenesis and invasion through cytolinker plectin
The ruthenium‐based metallodrug plecstatin exerts its anticancer effect in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) primarily through selective targeting of plectin. By disrupting plectin‐mediated cytoskeletal organization, plecstatin inhibits anchorage‐dependent growth, cell polarization, and tumor cell dissemination.
