Keratins Are Altered in Intestinal Disease-Related Stress Responses

Cells, 2016
Keratin (K) intermediate filaments can be divided into type I/type II proteins, which form obligate heteropolymers. Epithelial cells express type I-type II keratin pairs, and K7, K8 (type II) and K18, K19 and K20 (type I) are the primary keratins found ...

Bite force estimates and morphological correlations of jaw muscles in parrots

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Parrots (Order: Psittaciformes) are renowned for their high bite force (BF) and morphological correlates thereof, including a highly mobile skull and two unique mandibular adductor muscles—m. pseudomasseter and m. ethmomandibularis, with the former being hypothesized to increase force output.

Keratin Cross-reactivity in Electro-transfer (Western blot): How to Suppress It

International Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2013
Chicken antibodies (IgY) are increasingly being used as a primary antibody in the Western blotting immunodetection, offering several advantages compared to the common mammalian antibodies.

Sheep Horn Development Revealed by Multi‐Tissue and Cross‐Species Transcriptomic Analysis

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Multi‐tissue and cross‐species transcriptomics with allele‐specific expression show sheep horns are a composite organ integrating epidermal and osteogenic programs. Conserved horn gene modules and cis‐regulatory variation fine‐tune expression networks underlying horn development and size (small scurs vs. large spiral horns).

Establishment of Humanized EFNB2/B3 Murine Models for Investigating Nipah Virus Pathogenesis

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nipah virus (NiV) is a zoonotic paramyxovirus classified as a WHO priority pathogen, which causes severe respiratory disease and encephalitis in humans with high mortality. Currently, no licensed vaccines or specific antiviral therapies are available.

Engineering Stable Lentiviral Vector Producer Cells Improves LVV Production

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stable lentiviral vector producer cell lines represent a promising platform for scalable and cost‐efficient vector manufacturing, yet their productivity is often limited by intrinsic host‐cell constraints. In this study, we aimed to identify cellular factors restricting LVV production in stable doxycycline‐inducible GPRTG producer cell lines ...

A Proinflammatory Psoriatic Microenvironment Has Early Effects on Keratinocyte Proliferation/Differentiation and Induces Ferroptosis in HaCaT Cells

Biology
Background: The interaction between keratinocytes and proinflammatory cytokines is essential in the development of psoriatic lesions. The synergism among these cytokines and their involvement in ferroptosis are not yet elucidated.

Keratins Regulate p38MAPK-Dependent Desmoglein Binding Properties in Pemphigus

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
Keratins are crucial for the anchorage of desmosomes. Severe alterations of keratin organization and detachment of filaments from the desmosomal plaque occur in the autoimmune dermatoses pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigus foliaceus (PF), which are mainly ...

Transfersomes with core and surface‐loaded NF‐κB p65 siRNA for enhanced transdermal transfection and effective treatment of psoriasis

BMEMat, EarlyView.
TCPL, a transfersome with Tween 80 and PEI, enables efficient transdermal siNF‐κB delivery, resolving PEI's toxicity issue. It promotes lysosomal escape and effective transfection, silences NF‐κB, modulates immunity, and inhibits angiogenesis, alleviating psoriasis. With good biocompatibility, TCPL holds strong clinical translation potential. Schematic
