Canonical Antibodies Adopt Distinct Binding Modes to Recognize Viral Glycan Shields

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Canonical Y‐shaped antibodies recognize viral glycan shields through adaptive Fab assembly states shaped by glycan organization and somatic hypermutation. Structural analyses ofbroadly neutralizing antibodies VRC35 and VRC36 across glycoproteins of HIV‐1, influenza, SARS‐CoV‐2, and Lassa viruses reveal distinct Fab assembly states, spanning monovalent,

Tumor-educated-platelets interact with breast cancer-stem-cells via P-selectin-PSGL1 and ensure stemness and metastasis through WNT-β-catenin-VEGF-VEGFR2 intra-cellular signaling: therapeutic modulation by aspirin

open access: yesBreast Cancer Research
Background Protagonistic role of platelets promote capillary infiltration of tumors for distant metastasis along with immunosurveillance. Despite existing reports highlighting role of platelets in tumorigenesis, its impact on breast cancer stem cells ...

Repair of airway epithelia requires metabolic rewiring towards fatty acid oxidation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Airway epithelial repair, a key process in the recovery from lung injury, requires a metabolic shift from glycolysis to fatty acid oxidation (FAO). Pharmacological FAO promotion enhances epithelial differentiation, suggesting new therapeutic options.

Nano Proton Scavengers Modulate Endosomal pH to Inhibit Microglial Activation and Enhance Stroke Recovery

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Amphiphilic sulfonated chitosan nanoparticles buffer endo/lysosomal acidity in microglia by limiting V‐ATPase membrane recruitment and restoring endosomal homeostasis. Following systemic administration, they accumulate in the ischemic hemisphere partly through association with infiltrating immune cells, suppress TLR3/IRF3 and TLR4/NF‐κB signaling ...

CD8+ T-cell Cytotoxic Capacity Associated with Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1 Control Can Be Mediated through Various Epitopes and Human Leukocyte Antigen Types

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2015
Understanding natural immunologic control over Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-1 replication, as occurs in rare long-term nonprogressors/elite controllers (LTNP/EC), should inform the design of efficacious HIV vaccines and immunotherapies.

High Expression of FAP in Colorectal Cancer Is Associated With Angiogenesis and Immunoregulation Processes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Fibroblast activation protein α (FAP) plays an important role in tissue remodeling and helps tumor cells invade surrounding tissue. We sought to investigate FAP as a prognostic molecular marker in colorectal cancer (CRC) using immunohistochemical and ...
