Gene duplication and fragmentation in the zebra finch major histocompatibility complex
Background Due to its high polymorphism and importance for disease resistance, the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) has been an important focus of many vertebrate genome projects. Avian MHC organization is of particular interest because the chicken

Advanced Cancer Immunotherapy via SMARCAL1 Blockade Using a Glucose‐Responsive CRISPR Nanovaccine
A glucose‐catalyzed chemodynamic strategy is proposed to activate therapeutic genome editing of SMARCAL1to improve cancer immunotherapy. This innovative design featuring Fenton reaction activity and glucose consumption ability, not only effectively synergizes to activate the cGAS‐STING pathway but also inhibits the opposing functions of interferon by ...

Plant‐derived bioactive molecules with low solubility and permeability induce hepatocyte injury, though the mechanisms driving their hepatic effects remain poorly understood. This study identifies a novel transport pathway in which poorly soluble indirubin accumulates in the liver via macrophage‐mediated uptake in Peyer's patches, exacerbating hepatic ...

Identification of a CD4+ T cell-stimulating antigen of pathogenic bacteria by expression cloning. [PDF]
Identifying the immunogenic proteins that elicit pathogen-specific T cell responses is key to rational vaccine design. While several approaches have succeeded in identifying major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I bound peptides that stimulate CD8+
