Kinetics and cellular site of glycolipid loading control [PDF]
CD1d-restricted natural killer T cells (NKT cells) possess a wide range of effector and regulatory activities that are related to their ability to secrete both T helper 1 (Th1) cell- and Th2 cell-type cytokines.

Biomimetic Cell Membrane‐Coated Scaffolds for Enhanced Tissue Regeneration
This review examines the development and use of cell membrane‐coated scaffolds in tissue engineering. Bioinspired phospholipid and glycocalyx coatings enhance anti‐fouling, anti‐thrombogenic, and selective molecular recognition properties. Native cell membrane coatings further support cell‐specific interactions, immune modulation, and reduced bacterial

Cholesterol dependence of HTLV-I infection [PDF]
Cholesterol-rich plasma membrane microdomains are important for entry of many viruses, including retro-viruses. Depletion of cholesterol with 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin inhibits entry of human T cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-1) and HTLV-I envelope

New Perspectives on Semiconducting Conjugated Oligomers for Neuromodulation in Hydra vulgaris
Semiconducting organic compounds, thiophene‐based, modify the rhythmic electrical activity of the cnidarian Hydra vulgaris acting on specific neuronal circuits. The ETE‐S trimer also forms electronically conducting wires in the living tissues of the animal.

Membrane microdomains or rafts, sterol- and sphingolipid-rich microdomains in the plasma membrane have been studied extensively in mammalian cells. Recently, rafts were found to mediate virulence in a variety of parasites, including Toxoplasma gondii ...

Metabotropic Purinergic Receptors in Lipid Membrane Microdomains
There is broad evidence that association of transmembrane receptors and signalling molecules with lipid rafts/caveolae provides an enriched environment for protein-protein interactions necessary for signal transduction, and a mechanism for the modulation of neurotransmitter and/or growth factor receptor function.

Membrane microdomain may be a platform for immune signaling [PDF]
Arabidopsis RPS2 is a typical disease resistance (R) protein with nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeats (NB-LRR). Previously, we reported that RPS2 is physically associated with some Arabidopsis hypersensitive induced reaction (AtHIR) proteins, which are enriched in membrane microdomains. Biochemical and genetic analyses suggested that members of the
