Comparative anatomy of phagocytic and immunological synapses
The generation of phagocytic cups and immunological synapses are crucial events of the innate and adaptive immune responses, respectively. They are triggered by distinct immune receptors and performed by different cell types.

An introduction to the immune network [PDF]
In this paper, after a telegraphic introduction to modern immunology, we present a simple model for the idiotypic network among antibodies and we study its relevance for the maintenance of immunological memory. We also consider the problem of computing the memory capacity of such a model.

Targeting mitochondrial dysfunction presents a potential therapeutic approach for treating spinal cord injury. We have successfully designed and synthesized a functional Se@NADH nanodrug system. This system offers neuroprotective and neuroregenerative benefits by modulating mitochondrial function and neutralizing reactive oxygen species, thereby ...

Shannon Information Capacity of Discrete Synapses [PDF]
There is evidence that biological synapses have only a fixed number of discrete weight states. Memory storage with such synapses behaves quite differently from synapses with unbounded, continuous weights as old memories are automatically overwritten by new memories.

Inhibitory receptor signaling destabilizes immunological synapse formation in primary NK cells
Upon engagement of their cognate class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC) ligands, receptors containing immunotyrosine-based inhibitory motifs (ITIMs) transduce signals that block cytolytic and inflammatory responses.
