FGB1 and WSC3 are in planta-induced beta-glucan-binding fungal lectins with different functions
In the root endophyte Serendipita indica, several lectin-like members of the expanded multigene family of WSC proteins are transcriptionally induced in planta and are potentially involved in beta-glucan remodeling at the fungal cell wall.

Engineering antibodies with cancer‐associated binding sites
This review describes antibodies that perform direct/indirect roles in cancer treatment by binding to effective targets and discusses how antibodies kill tumors and modulate tumor microenvironment through these targets. The classification of expression systems for antibody production is summarized to guide appropriate selection based on different ...

Abstract Background Tumor‐associated neutrophils (TANs) play a critical role in modulating immune responses and exhibit significant heterogeneity. Our previous study demonstrated that jagged canonical Notch ligand 2 (JAG2)+ TANs were associated with an immunosuppressive microenvironment in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC), but the underlying ...

Glomerular C4d Staining Does Not Exclude a C3 Glomerulopathy
Introduction: C4d, an early product in the classical/lectin complement pathway has shown potential in the evaluation of C3 glomerulopathy where its absence would support an alternative pathway abnormality.

Nonlinear spectroscopy with entangled photons; manipulating quantum pathways of matter [PDF]
Optical signals obtained by the material response to classical laser fields are given by nonlinear response functions which can be expressed by sums over various quantum pathways of matter. We show that some pathways can be selected by using nonclassical fields, through the entanglement of photon and material pathways, which results in a different ...

Neutrophils in cancer: At the crucial crossroads of anti‐tumor and pro‐tumor
Abstract Neutrophils are important components of the immune system and play a key role in defending against pathogenic infections and responding to inflammatory cues, including cancer. Their dysregulation indicates potential disease risk factors. However, their functional importance in disease progression has often been underestimated due to their ...
