T-cell trans-synaptic vesicles are distinct and carry greater effector content than constitutive extracellular vesicles

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
T cells communicate with antigen-presenting cells (APC) via the signaling crosstalk at the immunological synapse (IS). Here the authors use bead-supported lipid bilayers as synthetic APCs to find that trans-synaptic vesicles produced by T cells in the IS

Membrane adhesion and domain formation

open access: yes, 2007
We review theoretical results for the adhesion-induced phase behavior of biomembranes. The focus is on models in which the membranes are represented as discretized elastic sheets with embedded adhesion molecules. We present several mechanism that lead to

Spatiomechanical Modulation of EphB4-Ephrin-B2 Signaling in Neural Stem Cell Differentiation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Interactions between EphB4 receptor tyrosine kinases and their membrane-bound ephrin-B2 ligands on apposed cells play a regulatory role in neural stem cell differentiation.

Autoimmune Encephalitis in Acute Care—Pathology, Diagnosis, and Management

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) is characterized by immune‐mediated inflammation of the brain parenchyma, presenting with various neurological syndromes, including but not limited to seizures, altered consciousness, neuropsychiatric symptoms, and movement disorders.

A major secretory defect of tumour-infiltrating T lymphocytes due to galectin impairing LFA-1-mediated synapse completion

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Galectin-3 is a sugar-binding protein that can inhibit antitumour cytotoxic immunity. Here the authors show that Galectin-3 expressed by tumour cells inhibits LFA-1 on cytotoxic lymphocytes, impairing immunological synapse formation, IFNg secretion, and ...

Diversity in immunological synapse structure

open access: yesImmunology, 2010
SummaryImmunological synapses (ISs) are formed at the T cell–antigen‐presenting cell (APC) interface during antigen recognition, and play a central role in T‐cell activation and in the delivery of effector functions. ISs were originally described as a peripheral ring of adhesion molecules surrounding a central accumulation of T‐cell receptor (TCR ...

Identifying Cytokine Motif‐Containing, Immunomodulatory Bacterial Proteins in Human Gut Microbiome

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
By building and constructing HMM (Upper left, blue), the authors identify CMCPs in bacteria genomes and CRC related metagenomes and enriched CRC‐related CMCPs (Upper right, blue). They analyze sequence and structural similarity of hits (Lower left, green), test function with engineered EcN delivered to tumors in a mouse tumor model (Lower right, pink ...

How T-cells use large deviations to recognize foreign antigens

open access: yes, 2008
A stochastic model for the activation of T-cells is analysed. T-cells are part of the immune system and recognize foreign antigens against a background of the body's own molecules.

Dynamin as a Mover and Pincher during Cell Migration and Invasion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The large GTPase dynamin, long known for its role in endocytosis, has most recently been implicated as a facilitator of cell migration and invasion. Recent observations link dynamin to the cycle of membrane expansion and retraction essential for cell ...
