Psychedelics promote neuroplasticity through the activation of intracellular 5-HT2A receptors
Decreased dendritic spine density in the cortex is a hallmark of several neuropsychiatric diseases, and the ability to promote cortical neuron growth has been hypothesized to underlie the rapid and sustained therapeutic effects of psychedelics ...

Complosome — the intracellular complement system
The complement system is a recognized pillar of host defence against infection and noxious self-derived antigens. Complement is traditionally known as a serum-effective system, whereby the liver expresses and secretes most complement components, which ...

Intracellular microlasers [PDF]
Optical microresonators1 which confine light within a small cavity are widely exploited for various applications ranging from the realization of lasers2 and nonlinear devices3, 4, 5 to biochemical and optomechanical sensing6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11. Here we employ microresonators and suitable optical gain materials inside biological cells to demonstrate ...

Selective autophagy of intracellular organelles: recent research advances
Macroautophagy (hereafter called autophagy) is a highly conserved physiological process that degrades over-abundant or damaged organelles, large protein aggregates and invading pathogens via the lysosomal system (the vacuole in plants and yeast ...

Multifunctional intracellular matrix metalloproteinases: implications in disease
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are zinc‐dependent endopeptidases that were first discovered as proteases, which target and cleave extracellular proteins. During the past 20 years, however, intracellular roles of MMPs were uncovered and research on this

The human tumor microbiome is composed of tumor type–specific intracellular bacteria
Profiling tumor bacteria Bacteria are well-known residents in human tumors, but whether their presence is advantageous to the tumors or to the bacteria themselves has been unclear.

Immunity to intracellular bacteria [PDF]
Intracellular bacteria are endowed with the capacity to survive and replicate inside mononuclear phagocytes (MP) and, sometimes, within certain other host cells. MP are potent effectors cells that are able to engulf and kill many bacterial invaders. Therefore, intracellular bacteria had to exploit potent evasion mechanisms that allow their survival in ...

Intracellular biomineralization in bacteria [PDF]
Bacteria can sequester metals and other ions intracellularly in various forms ranging from poorly ordered deposits to well- ordered mineral crystals. Magnetotactic bacteria provide one example of such intracellular deposits. They synthesize intracellular magnetic minerals of magnetite (Fe3O4) and/or greigite (Fe3S4) magnetosomes which are generally ...
