From secretome analysis to immunology: chitosan induces major alterations in the activation of dendritic cells via a TLR4-dependent mechanism [PDF]
Dendritic cells are known to be activated by a wide range of microbial products, leading to cytokine production and increased levels of membrane markers such as major histocompatibility complex class II molecules. Such activated dendritic cells possess the capacity to activate na\"ive T cells.

Learning a peptide-protein binding affinity predictor with kernel ridge regression [PDF]
We propose a specialized string kernel for small bio-molecules, peptides and pseudo-sequences of binding interfaces. The kernel incorporates physico-chemical properties of amino acids and elegantly generalize eight kernels, such as the Oligo, the Weighted Degree, the Blended Spectrum, and the Radial Basis Function.

COVID‐19 systematic screening of asymptomatic haematopoietic stem cell donors: Less if often more
From COVID pandemic spread until now, many HSCT unrelated donor registries recommend as a precaution a systematic COVID‐19 testing for all donors during the precollection time. Literature is quite poor to support this systematic attitude.

Consensus Algorithm For Calculation Of Protein Binding Affinity Using Multiple Models [PDF]
The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules, which bind peptides for presentation on the cell surface, play an important role in cell-mediated immunity. In light of developing databases and technologies over the years, significant progress has been made in research on peptide binding affinity calculation.

An Invertebrate Histocompatibility Complex [PDF]
Abstract We have developed defined genetic lines of the hydroid Hydractinia symbiolongicarpus and confirmed earlier results showing that allorecognition is controlled by a single chromosomal region within these lines. In a large backcross population, we detected recombinants that display a fusibility phenotype distinct from typical ...
