CHB‐Induced Immune Zonation Chaos Elicited LXRα‐mediated Lipid Metabolism Disorders in Kupffer Cells to Induce Cancer Stem Cell Formation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
By profiling the spatiotemporal hepatic landscape of CHB mouse models, the originally peri‐portal localized KCs migrated to the peri‐central in a CXCL9‐CXCR3‐dependent manner, facilitating their interaction with HBV+ hepatocytes. The interaction promoted LMD in KCs through ASGR1‐induced LXRα degradation, which, in turn, induced CSC formation via Stat3 ...

Decoding a Gut Commensal Signal: Structural and Immunological Profiling of Segatella Copri Lipopolysaccharide

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of Segatella copri is a structurally unique, immunomodulatory glycoconjugate. Combining mass spectrometry (MS), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and cytometry by time‐of‐flight (CyTOF), we uncover a rough‐type LPS with reduced TLR4 agonism and selective monocyte effects, further highlighting the key role of LPS chemistry ...

A single-pass type I membrane protein, mannose-specific L-type lectin, potentially involved in the adhesion and invasion of Cryptosporidium parvum

Parasite
Cryptosporidium is a globally distributed zoonotic protozoan parasite that can cause severe diarrhea in humans and animals. L-type lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins involved in multiple pathways in animals and plants, including protein ...

A deep insight into the sialome of male and female aedes aegypti mosquitoes [PDF]

, 2016
Only adult female mosquitoes feed on blood, while both genders take sugar meals. Accordingly, several compounds associated with blood feeding (i.e. vasodilators, anti-clotting, anti-platelets) are found only in female glands, while enzymes associated ...

Enhanced Single‐Particle Upconversion Imaging via Energy Migration Boosting

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A core‐shell‐shell Yb3⁺/Er3⁺ UCNP architecture is engineered to balance energy migration and back energy transfer, yielding more than a tenfold enhancement in single‐particle brightness. Leveraging these optimized probes, it achieves long‐term, high‐resolution single‐particle tracking in live neurons, uncovering coordinated transport mechanisms of ...

C‐type lectins on macrophages participate in the immunomodulatory response to Fasciola hepatica products

Immunology, 2011
Fasciola hepatica releases excretory–secretory products (FhESP), and immunomodulatory properties have been described for the carbohydrates present in these parasite products.

Containment of aerogenic Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in mice does not require MyD88 adaptor function for TLR2, -4 and -9.

, 2008
The role of Toll-like receptors (TLR) and MyD88 for immune responses to Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection remains controversial. To address the impact of TLR-mediated pathogen recognition and MyD88-dependent signaling events on anti ...

MUC15 Ectodomain Architecture Regulates Integrin Clustering to Control Cancer Metastasis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers a size‐dependent adhesion paradigm, demonstrating that the glycocalyx protein MUC15 suppresses pancreatic cancer progression by attenuating integrin activation, focal adhesion assembly, and YAP mechanotransduction. Integrating computational modeling and experimental validation, the work reveals a mechanical mechanism by which MUC15 ...
