EIF4A3‐Induced Circular RNA circSnd1 Promotes Muscle Atrophy and Muscle Ageing by Stabilizing EEF1A1
Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 1, February 2026.ABSTRACT Background Muscle atrophy is a common complication of ageing, and many chronic conditions, lacks defined therapeutic interventions. It is still mostly unknown how circular RNAs contribute to muscle atrophy. Methods circRNA sequencing and quantitative real‐time PCR were performed to detect the changed circRNAs in muscle atrophy models and aged ...

A homing receptor-IgG chimera as a probe for adhesive ligands of lymph node high endothelial venules. [PDF]
, 1990 The binding of lymphocytes to high endothelial venules (HEV) within peripheral lymph nodes (pln) is thought to be mediated by a lectinlike adhesion molecule termed the pln homing receptor (pln HR). The cloning and sequencing of cDNAs encoding both murine

Mannan-binding lectin concentration during normal human pregnancy [PDF]
Human Reproduction, 2000 Relative deficiency of mannan-binding lectin (MBL) is associated with recurrent miscarriage. To investigate whether MBL concentration alters as a result of pregnancy, serial measurements were made in 14 patients before and during normal early pregnancy.

Journal of Extracellular Biology, Volume 5, Issue 2, February 2026.ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) released from tissues can be found in human biofluids. EVs reflect the phenotypic state of their cell of origin, carrying informative molecular biomarkers within and between tissues, and represent a promising target for liquid biopsy.

Identification of a carbohydrate-based endothelial ligand for a lymphocyte homing receptor. [PDF]
, 1991 Lymphocyte attachment to high endothelial venules within lymph nodes is mediated by the peripheral lymph node homing receptor (pnHR), originally defined on mouse lymphocytes by the MEL-14 mAb.

Challenge Specific Modulation of Responses to Adjuvant‐Induced Innate Immune Memory
Immunology, Volume 177, Issue 2, Page 254-269, February 2026.We utilised a commercially available adjuvant formulation to study the induction, maintenance, and consequences of innate immune memory. Using functional assays on bone marrow‐derived innate cells, extensive transcriptomic analysis of haematopoietic progenitors, and challenge models of spirochetal infection, nonspecific inflammation, and model antigen ...

The pandemic (H1N1) 2009 influenza virus is resistant to mannose-binding lectin
Virology Journal, 2011 Background Mannose-binding lectin (MBL) is an important component of innate immunity because it promotes bacterial clearance and neutralization of human influenza A viruses.
