Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 43, Issue 1, Page 66-88, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Nowadays, more and more attention has been focused on the risk of the neurotoxic action of cadmium (Cd) under environmental exposure. Due to the growing incidence of nervous system diseases, including neurodegenerative changes, and suggested involvement of Cd in their aetiopathogenesis, this review aimed to discuss critically this element ...

Imaging the Human Immunological Synapse [PDF]
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2019 The purpose of the method is to generate an immunological synapse (IS), an example of cell-to-cell conjugation formed by an antigen-presenting cell (APC) and an effector helper T lymphocyte (Th) cell, and to record the images corresponding to the first stages of the IS formation and the subsequent trafficking events (occurring both in the APC and in ...

The diversity of immunological synapses [PDF]
Current Opinion in Immunology, 2003 Immunological synapses (ISs) are specialised signalling domains characterised by complex molecular clustering and segregation at the contact site between cells of the immune system. T lymphocytes form different ISs depending on their state of activation and on the antigen-presenting cells with which they interact. The structural features of the various

Brain Pathology, Volume 33, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 Schematic depicting characterization of pathological tau signatures and nuclear alterations in neurons, astrocytes and microglia in neurodegenerative diseases. Abstract Accumulation of pathological tau aggregates is a prominent feature in tauopathies that leads during the course of the diseases to neuronal dysfunction before and cell death after ...

A Ciliary View of the Immunological Synapse [PDF]
Cells, 2019 The primary cilium has gone from being a vestigial organelle to a crucial signaling hub of growing interest given the association between a group of human disorders, collectively known as ciliopathies, and defects in its structure or function. In recent years many ciliogenesis proteins have been observed at extraciliary sites in cells and likely ...

LFA-1 Activation in T-Cell Migration and Immunological Synapse Formation
Cells, 2023 Integrin LFA-1 plays a critical role in T-cell migration and in the formation of immunological synapses. LFA-1 functions through interacting with its ligands with differing affinities: low, intermediate, and high.

The Immunological Synapse [PDF]
Cancer Immunology Research, 2003 AbstractThe molecular interactions underlying regulation of the immune response take place in a nanoscale gap between T cells and antigen-presenting cells, termed the immunological synapse. If these interactions are regulated appropriately, the host is defended against a wide range of pathogens and deranged host cells.

Nutraceuticals and COVID‐19: A mechanistic approach toward attenuating the disease complications
Journal of Food Biochemistry, Volume 46, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Nutraceuticals have emerged as potential compounds to attenuate the COVID‐19 complications. Precisely, these food additives strengthen the overall COVID treatment and enhance the immunity of a person. Such compounds have been used at a large scale, in almost every household due to their better affordability and easy access.

Annual Review of Immunology, 2001 The adaptive immune response is initiated by the interaction of T cell antigen receptors with major histocompatibility complex molecule-peptide complexes in the nanometer scale gap between a T cell and an antigen-presenting cell, referred to as an immunological synapse.

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Natural killer (NK) cells are innate lymphoid cells, which play key roles in elimination of virally infected and malignant cells. The balance between activating and inhibitory signals derived from NK surface receptors govern the NK cell immune response ...
