Role of Prion protein-EGFR multimolecular complex during neuronal differentiation of human dental pulp-derived stem cells [PDF]
Cellular prion protein (PrPC) is expressed in a wide variety of stem cells in which regulates their self-renewal as well as differentiation potential. In this study we investigated the presence of PrPCin human dental pulp-derived stem cells (hDPSCs) and ...

An improved preparation of bovine brain proteolipid
An improved preparation of proteolipid from bovine brain white matter is described. The product obtained by repeated acetone precipitation is completely soluble in chloroform-methanol and has a fairly constant composition: 35% protein, 40 ...

Comparison of exon 5 sequences from 35 class I genes of the BALB/c mouse [PDF]
DNA sequences of the fifth exon, which encodes the transmembrane domain, were determined for the BALB/c mouse class I MHC genes and used to study the relationships between them. Based on nucleotide sequence similarity, the exon 5 sequences can be divided

Roles of Predicted Glycosyltransferases in the Biosynthesis of the Rhizobium etli CE3 O Antigen [PDF]
The Rhizobium etli CE3 O antigen is a fixed-length heteropolymer. The genetic regions required for its synthesis have been identified, and the nucleotide sequences are known.

How T lymphocytes recognize lipid antigens
Recognition of lipid antigens by T lymphocytes is well established. Lipids are recognized by T cells when presented in association with CD1 antigen‐presenting molecules. Both microbial and self lipids stimulate specific T lymphocytes, thus participating in immune reactions during infections and autoimmune diseases.

Biocompatible Lipid Polymer Cationic Nanoparticles for Antigen Presentation [PDF]
Biocompatible lipid polymer nanoparticles (NPs) previously used as antimicrobial agents are explored here as immuno-adjuvants. Poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/dioctadecyldimethylammonium bromide (DODAB)/poly (diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA) nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared by emulsion polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) in the ...

Obesity is characterized by a chronic low-grade inflammation and, paradoxically, is also associated with immune cells dysfunction. In this study, we analyzed peripheral blood Invariant Natural killer T cells (iNKT) in individuals with or without obesity.

Role of natural killer T lymphocytes during helminthic infection
Natural killer (NK)T cells are innate lymphocytes that release important amount of immunoregulatory cytokines (IFN-γ and/or IL-4) shortly after T cell receptor engagement by (glyco)lipid antigens presented by the CD1d molecules.
