The immune system as a system of relations

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Progress in neuroimmunology established that the nervous and the immune systems are two functionally related physiological systems. Unique sensory and immune receptors enable them to control interactions of the organism with the inner and the outer worlds. Both systems undergo an experience-driven selection process during their ontogeny. They share the

Myristoylated, alanine-rich C-kinase substrate (MARCKS) regulates toll-like receptor 4 signaling in macrophages

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
MARCKS (myristoylated alanine-rich C-kinase substrate) is a membrane-associated protein expressed in many cell types, including macrophages. MARCKS is functionally implicated in cell adhesion, phagocytosis, and inflammation.

Natural killer (NK) cells for cancer immunotherapy: pluripotent stem cells-derived NK cells as an immunotherapeutic perspective

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2014
Natural killer (NK) cells play an essential role in the fight against tumor development. Over the last years, the progress made in the NK cell biology field and in deciphering how NK cell function is regulated, is driving efforts to utilize NK cell-based

PI3K in T Cell Adhesion and Trafficking

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
PI3K signalling is required for activation, differentiation, and trafficking of T cells. PI3Kδ, the dominant PI3K isoform in T cells, has been extensively characterised using PI3Kδ mutant mouse models and PI3K inhibitors. Furthermore, characterisation of

Structural mechanism of tapasin-mediated MHC-I peptide loading in antigen presentation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
The catalytic chaperone tapasin assists peptide loading onto MHC-I molecules for antigen presentation and immune recognition. Here, the authors present crystal structures that provide insights into the molecular mechanism of tapasin-mediated peptide ...

MicroRNA in the immune system, microRNA as an immune system

open access: yesImmunology, 2009
SummaryThe advent of microRNA has potentially uncovered a new level of complexity to be considered for every biological process. Through the modulation of transcription and translation, microRNA alter the basal state of cells and the outcome of stimulatory events. The exact effect of the microRNA network and individual microRNA on cellular processes is

Muscle Loss Driven by Extracellular Signal-Regulated Kinase Suppression via β-Adrenergic Activation in High-Normal Catecholamine Status [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrinology and Metabolism
Background Catecholamines play a crucial role in muscle biogenesis, but their persistent elevation is linked to muscle wasting, which is poorly understood.

Bacteriophages and the Immune System [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Virology, 2021
Bacteriophages—viruses that infect bacteria—are abundant within our bodies, but their significance to human health is only beginning to be explored. Here, we synthesize what is currently known about our phageome and its interactions with the immune system.

Differences in Type 2 Fiber Composition in the Vastus Lateralis and Gluteus Maximus of Patients with Hip Fractures [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrinology and Metabolism
Background Aging leads to sarcopenia, which is characterized by reduced muscle mass and strength. Many factors, including altered muscle protein turnover, diminished neuromuscular function, hormonal changes, systemic inflammation, and the structure and ...
