Activation of NOD1 and NOD2 in the development of liver injury and cancer
Hepatocytes and liver-resident antigen-presenting cells are exposed to microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) and microbial metabolites, which reach the liver from the gut via the portal vein.

Arabidopsis cell culture for comparable physiological and genetic studies
Cell cultures established from various plant species have been used for a range of physiological and biochemical studies. Homogeneity of cell types and size of clusters in the cell culture often gave a clearer and simpler results compared to those ...

Kawasaki disease-specific molecules in the sera are linked to microbe-associated molecular patterns in the biofilms. [PDF]
Kawasaki disease (KD) is a systemic vasculitis of unknown etiology. The innate immune system is involved in its pathophysiology at the acute phase. We have recently established a novel murine model of KD coronary arteritis by oral administration of a ...

Early childhood milk and milk products intake - Maternal perceptions & practices
The prevalence of micronutrient deficiencies in young children has a profound effect on their immune system, growth and mental development. However, many micronutrients deficiencies in children such as calcium can be prevented. This research has explored

The treatment of geometrically small structures in FDTD by the modification of assigned material parameters [PDF]
A number of different improvements to the analysis by finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) of small structures, such as wires, strips and slots have been proposed in the literature.

Carbonic anhydrases CA1 and CA4 function in atmospheric CO2-modulated disease resistance [PDF]
Main conclusion Carbonic anhydrases CA1 and CA4 attenuate plant immunity and can contribute to altered disease resistance levels in response to changing atmospheric CO2 conditions.

High levels of cyclic-di-GMP in plant-associated Pseudomonas correlate with evasion of plant immunity [PDF]
The plant innate immune system employs plasma membrane-localized receptors that specifically perceive pathogen/microbe-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs/MAMPs).
