Treatment with Plasma Activated (Salt) Water Sterilizes Macromolecular Coatings While Maintaining Their Integrity and Functionality

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
PDMS samples were covalently coated with mucin glycoproteins and then treated with either plasma activated water (PAW) or saline (PAS) as a means of disinfection. The samples could be successfully sterilized without compromising the structural integrity or functionality of those coatings.

Distribution of glycan motifs at the surface of midgut cells in the cotton leafworm (Spodoptera littoralis) demonstrated by lectin binding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Glycans are involved in many biological phenomena, including signal transduction, cell adhesion, immune response or differentiation. Although a few papers have reported on the role of glycans in the development and proper functioning of the insect midgut,

Rational Design of Optical Single‐Walled Carbon Nanotube‐Based Nanosensors with Biological Recognition Elements

open access: yesAdvanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
This Review focuses on assessing and providing perspective on the field of rationally‐designed optical sensors constructed with single‐walled carbon nanotubes. The literature is reviewed and evaluated for SWCNT‐based sensors constructed with biomolecular recognition elements, including proteins, peptides, and oligonucleotides, as well as their methods ...

CD207‐Positive Dendritic Cells Promote Emphysema Through CD8+ T Cell Pathway in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
CD207+ dendritic cells (DCs) drive emphysema by promoting CD8⁺ T cell cytotoxicity via Birbeck granule‐dependent MHC‐I antigen presentation. This DC subset is expanded by cigarette smoke‐induced oxidative stress, which triggers granulocyte‐macrophage colony‐stimulating factor (GM‐CSF) release from airway epithelium.

Beyond the fuzzy lock-and-key: spontaneous symmetry shifts and glycan/lectin logic gates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Changes in the molecular topology of glycan/lectin interaction may explain observed reaction punctuation driven by experimental gradients in reactant concentration. Adoption of a 'biological renormalization' perspective from statistical physics

From structural to functional glycomics: core substitutions as molecular switches for shape and lectin affinity of N-glycans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Glycan epitopes of cellular glycoconjugates act as versatile biochemical signals (sugar coding). Here, we test the hypothesis that the common N-glycan modifications by core fucosylation and introduction of the bisecting N-acetylglucosamine moiety have ...

Long‐Term Effects of Xenotransplantation of Human Enteric Glia in an Immunocompetent Rat Model of Acute Brain Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Acute brain injuries are characterized by extensive tissue damage, resulting in debilitating deficits in patients. Despite considerable progress, cell‐based approaches have yet to identify an ideal candidate. This long‐term study explores the use of an untested cell source – human enteric glia – and a non‐invasive administration route – intranasal ...

An Immunoreactive Protein to Wheat-Germ Agglutinin Antibody Is Induced in Oat Roots Following Invasion of the Cereal Cyst Nematode Heterodera avenae, and by Jasmonate

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 1997
A protein that cross-reacts to a wheat-germ agglutinin antibody was induced in oat roots following the invasion of second-stage juveniles (J2) of the cereal cyst nematode Heterodera avenae.

Crystal Structure of the Cysteine-Rich Domain of Mannose Receptor Complexed with a Sulfated Carbohydrate Ligand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The macrophage and epithelial cell mannose receptor (MR) binds carbohydrates on foreign and host molecules. Two portions of MR recognize carbohydrates: tandemly arranged C-type lectin domains facilitate carbohydrate-dependent macrophage uptake of ...
